    Good to know so around 9000 have died in the US 40 and under, so that's 180,000 g's. You are very generous person

    98% of scientists provide results backing their funders desire.

    Do you feel bad for those who have died not from covid? Not sure what your point is.

    Covid is a hoax according to you, I am trying to figure out how all these people died from a hoax.

    Now if you wanna state COVID was overhyped and/or handled terribly by Federal/State and local governments I'll get on board.

    DeSantis in Florida was smart enough not to put Covid paitences in Nursey homes, why would he enact such an order if COVID was a hoax?

    If the US would have not shut down a year ago and we did the status quo how many people would have died? It's easy to armchair QB, hell I have and am still doing it.

    I'm left wondering how many people would still be alive today, how many businesses would still have their doors open, how low would the unemployment rate be, who would be the president today if China and Fauci told the world the minute it escaped their lab?

    Could you imagine the difference having travel restrictions and quarantining possible exposures up to 4 months earlier would have made?

    It could have been contained and kept in Wuhan and likely had made only a few headlines.

    Covid was politicized and used to manipulate there is no doubt, just look at the hypocritical politicians that broke their own covid rules. There was funding tied to positive cases, do you really trust the medical field when it comes to profits?

    The existence of it is not a lie, however, I completely agree with the premise that for most of us, it is not that big of a deal.

    Well no, are you saying that a medical system tied to profits is not the best?

    Think they don't know who is and isn't vaccinated? I mentioned getting the first shot once on Facebook back in March.

    Walgreens also needed my insurance info, which was already on file for scrips.

    Ha ha, that truly made me laugh. I think you know exactly what he's getting at, but great set up. If you aren't a defense attorney I think you really missed your calling. I don't agree with most of your political views but certainly appreciate your wit.

    My next comments aren't aimed at you specifically, just got sucked in and have to share my own thoughts.

    I don't believe for one minute that the actual true number of people that died from covid is as reported. As soon as federal money was made available if a death was related to covid, well that's when honest/true accuracy went out the window. (what Sota was getting at)

    Heck, even here in po-dunk small town Idaho I know a person who for sure died of cancer but their death was listed as covid. Stage 5, went into the hospital at the very end for comfort care, supposedly caught covid while there...officially listed as died from covid.
    It is purely a greed thing, ties in nicely for the ones who were looking to "never let a good crises go to waste".
    I'm betting this was very rampant across the entire country because, you know, greed.
    While I myself actually caught it and had pretty strong flu like symptoms I also don't know a single person that had it, or have heard anyone else say they know someone who had it, that actually even had to go to the hospital for it let alone died from it. Yes it's a real illness, but it isn't near the big bad boogeyman that it has been made out to be.
    Perhaps I'm wrong, but that's the way it strikes me right now with the info that I think I know.

    IL's Helath Dept. Director or whatever her title is admitted during a presser that a person who had tested positive for Covid died, it was listed as a Covid death even if other factors were the actual cause of death.

    This article says they were going to adjust the numbers just over a year ago, but being IL I still don't trust them. We're the most corrupt state in the nation, afterall




    SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (WICS/WRSP) — The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) includes everyone who tests positive for COVID-19 in their daily count, including the number of deaths, even if the virus didn’t kill them.

    As of Tuesday, May 12, more than 3,600 with COVID-19 have died in Illinois.

    “We are reporting those deaths that have laboratory confirmation, meaning that they have been tested and a laboratory test indicates that they were COVID positive,” Dr. Ngozi Ezike, director of IDPH, said.

    However, that does not mean every one of these people died from the virus.
