Theres another worrisome, COVID-related health care scare infecting politically connected doctors who have a bullhorn and a bully pulpit.

Unlike the coronavirus that emanated from China, or omicron, just discovered in South Africa, this virus comes from the land of MAGA.

Here comes the MEV the Midterm Election Variant! They NEED a reason to push unsolicited nationwide mail-in ballots Democrats will do anything to CHEAT during an election but were not going to let them!

ThatsTexas Republican U.S. Rep. Ronny Jacksonon Twitter,claiming that omicron is just a Democratic hoax in that partys quest to win elections at all costs even subverting democracy. (Hmm, where would they get an idea like that?)

But Rep. Ronny Jackson is alsoDr.Ronny Jackson, former White House physician under President Trump and and! President Obama. He joins several high-profile, medically trained, supposedly science-hugging professionals who are out of their minds or just politically shrewd, and perverse.

Really?:Its an outlandish claim that makes Jacksons previous assertions, calling mask-wearing a personal choice and saying that he doesnt wear a mask all that often seem almost quaint.

But theyre not. They are part of a calculated ploy to keep the reins of power in Trump backers hands, no matter the cost, even one as high as 777,000 Americans dead.

Jackson joins the likes of Sen. Rand Paul also Dr. Rand Paul who has little use for infectious-disease expert Dr. Anthony Faucis credible medical guidance. In November 2020, Paul, R-Kentucky, urged Americans who had recovered from COVID-19 tothrow away their masks, go to restaurants, live again.

He claimed that they had become immune. Public-health experts said otherwise. But what can one expect from a politically blinded, self-certified ophthalmologist?

Horse medicine:Of course, Floridas Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo has endorsed hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19 discredited by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration preaches herd immunity as our way out of the pandemic and has pushed ivermectin, an anti-parasitic drug as a COVID-19 treatment.

Of course, the medication is not approved for such use. But many people took it anyway, including the version used for livestock, leading to a surge in poison-control-centers calls in the state.

Ladapo abhors mask mandates and refused to wear one while in the office of a state senator whos also a cancer patient. With bona fides like this, hes a cinch to be confirmed by the Floridas Republican-led Legislature. Plus, its Gov. Ron DeSantis will.

Were just not sure how this latest scourge can be contained, but voting for the science nerds next time could be the cure.
