Over five million people have officially fallen victim to the coronavirus. But news magazine The Economist estimates that the pandemic's true death toll is four times higher by calculating with almost 20 million excess deaths worldwide. The official COVID toll could just be the tip of the iceberg.

https://www.health.com/condition/flu/flu-vs-covidOn the whole, COVID-19 is much more deadly than the flu, and more likely to result in severe illness and hospitalization. "Compared to the 0.01% case fatality rate for influenza, the case fatality rate for COVID-19 is 0.2%," says Dr. Barros.

The FDA wants the public to wait until the year 2076 - a full 55 years - for them to release the information it relied on to deem Pfizer's vaccine safe for usage.
They said they can release 500 pages a month for the next 659 months.
That makes me want to see the data right now.

So, let’s get this straight. The federal government shields Pfizer from liability. Gives it billions of dollars. Makes Americans take its product. But won’t let you see the data supporting its product’s safety and efficacy. Who does the government work for?
The lesson yet again is that civil and individual rights should never be contingent upon a medical procedure. Everyone who wants to get vaccinated and boosted should be free to do so. But nobody should be coerced by the government to partake in any medical procedure. Certainly not one where the government wants to hide the full information relied upon for its licensure until the year 2076!

Schadenfreude has never been a good look.
Same goes for www.sorryantivaxxer.com.
I also used to follow the FB group "Things anti-vaxxers say". Absolutely hilarious, but eventually the holier than thou attitude of the medical professionals commenting there becomes too much.

New covid variant detected in South Africa.
Several European countries are banning flights to and from several African countries.

When are they going to explain the reason for why this thing is mutating so quickly and all of these variants popping up?
I'm subscribing to the theory that we vaccinated during a pandemic and have forced this before hitting a proper herd immunity to the original virus.
Either that or they need to start shooting the media types that are trying to sow fear like there's no tomorrow.

I am trying to stay away from putting up any more links this thread Mëds.
However.
Have you seen any of the Dr. John youtube vids?

Had to go check who that was (so obviously not a ton). But yeah, I've see a couple. He's quite good.....it's a shame that everyone isn't willing to simply breakdown the evidence and studies the way he is and simply call things as they are in a neutral manner.

The more infections we have the more chances the virus has to mutate. So letting the virus spread unchecked throughout the population (which is what I assume you mean by "proper herd immunity") would actually increase the number of mutations.Mëds wrote: ↑Fri Nov 26, 2021 10:31 am When are they going to explain the reason for why this thing is mutating so quickly and all of these variants popping up?

How have vaccinations forced mutations, according to your theory?
