But, Covid caused so many deaths, it altered the normal death rate enough to be be noticed; ie, "excess deaths", especially in the retirement and nursing homes in the beginning. People that believe normal deaths are being misreported as Covid cases are ignoring these excess deaths, and also the fact that hospitals are being overwhelmed by Covid deaths, not the usual causes. -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA (change ".netto" to ".us" to email me) - "A Guide to Self-Launching Sailplane Operation" https://sites.google.com/site/motorg...ad-the-guide-1 |

Yes, all vaccinations are not without side effects, but getting Covid-19 is far more deadly than the vaccination. I will take my chances with the vaccine. I also took my chances in 1954 when I was one of the first children to get the polio vaccine. It worked for me. |

All deaths post vaccination scored as other than a vaccination kill. You guys are disappointing. Sad thing is the vaccine 'might' be useful for health if it reduced fear, solely by the health benefits of not living scared, but the pubic health people say you still need to be afraid after getting jabbed. |

You are ignoring the excess deaths and unusually large number of hospitalizations during the last 12 months. These can not be explained by misreported causes of death. Those of us who take the CDC recommendations seriously are not living in fear, anymore than glider pilots wearing parachutes are living in fear: it is a sensible response to a real problem.

President Franklin Delano Roosevelt famously declared, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself."
How naïve. If he had only realized how fear could be such a useful tool for those in power. Merely by promoting fear, the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights can be tossed in the trash. The precedent has been set so that in the future, the citizenry can be ordered to behave like sheep, with the most sheep-ish recruited to chastise, shame and otherwise finger-wag the rest of us into compliance. "Independence Day" will now only be referred to as "July 4." However, the anniversary of the date the Government declared an emergency for a virus with a 99.8% SURVIVAL rate will be hereafter "celebrated" as "Dependence Day," with festivities canceled and all citizens ordered to spend 24 hours in a Styrofoam box with CNN or MSNBC on the tube. Failure to observe this "holiday" will result in having your work declared non-essential and your "emergency benefits" curtailed. |
