COVID is back?? | Asmongold TV

"Even if COVID kills people at a higher rate than it was at the peak of COVID in 2020, 2021... the public is just fatigued from listening to the government and they're just gonna say fuck it. Let it happen." That blunt assessment from Asmongold sets the tone for an episode that is less about the virus itself and more about what has changed in the three years since the pandemic began.

The factual picture: what is actually happening

The transcript opens with news reports of rising COVID cases across Southeast Asia. Thailand reported more than 33,000 cases in a single week, with at least 6,000 from Bangkok alone—a number that had doubled from the week before. Singapore saw its first major spike in a year with over 14,000 cases. In Hong Kong, the infection rate jumped from 1.7 percent in mid-March to 11.4 percent by early May, with 81 severe cases and 31 deaths reported in one week—a one-year high for the territory. India also saw a moderate uptick, with 257 active cases concentrated in the state of Karnataka and Maharashtra.
