US Republican Rep Greene says ‘no one cares’ about Delta variant

Congresswoman’s allegations highlight how COVID-19 has been politicized in the United States.

A controversial rising star in the United States Republican Party, Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene has tweeted comments dismissive of the threat from the Delta variant of COVID-19 as President Joe Biden, a Democrat, pushes for greater acceptance of vaccines in the US amid a newly rising death toll in some areas.

“No one cares about the Delta variant or any other variant,” Representative Greene, a newly elected member of Congress from Georgia, said in a string of tweets she called a “message from America to the Swamp” unleashed on July 5.

“They are over covid & there is no amount of fear-based screaming from the media that will ever force Americans to shut down again,” Greene said.

I maintain a topical news feed on all things COVID and reading the recent news articles on the Delta variant has me very worried, especially when I read stuff like this.

Brace yourselves friends. I fear we have some rough spots ahead.
