    No Omicron to date! That’ll change

    Hey, I’m not breaking your balls but just a little. It’s ok. Honestly I think real answers aren’t known. We need to let each other be within their own decisions at this point, and from our discussions, I believe you agree!

    As soon as I have some real practice data, I’ll share. I’m hoping Omicron wipes out Delta for now.

    Do y’all know what’s killed more Americans than Rona? Heart disease! It’s sad many of these individuals were never able to have their problems corrected due to Rona

    Heart disease is rampant on my moms side of the family. I mean they ALL have had heart attacks or strokes.

    Disagree. They’re are existing reports of deaths counted as Covid but weren’t actually a death caused by Covid. The numbers themselves, impossible to determine.

    why I think that’s important is that if numbers are reported appropriately, the entire freak out over Covid drops substantially which includes all the additional precautions that seem to have had a much higher negative impact outside of Covid than the positive impact towards Covid.

    as far as 800K additional deaths, I’d like to see the confirmation of that. CDC typically releases total deaths and how a year or two after. Currently 2020 Is the latest.
    This is what I’ve found,
    U.S. death rate soared 17 percent in 2020, final CDC mortality report concludes

    Has that continued in 2021? Not sure.

    even that article points to the additional affects not Covid directly caused in addition to the theme of life expectancy dropping overall which cannot be associated to Covid.

    That’s awesome. I’ve gotten lucky enough to see a handful of countries around the world, well short of 46, but in general more people need to see the world including lesser off areas to truly appreciate the greatest country on Earth, the US.

    I really only chimed back in to explain that not everyone who is against the current Covid situation thinks it didn’t exist, it’s a sham, or that we think Dr/nurses are lying.
    I absolutely believe Covid is/has been real. I absolutely believe people have died from it.
    I absolutely believe the numbers are inaccurate, however not because dr/nurses are lying.
    I absolutely think the entire process of locking down everything has had a much more negative impact than positive.
    I absolutely think we’re passed the worst of it and that all these mandates and lockdown efforts are unnecessary.

    people are still going to get it and yes, some people are still going to die from it. Those numbers do not outweigh everything negative coming from the precautions being taken to attempt preventing those numbers. Illness is a part of life and always has been, Covid isn’t/never was anything new.
