Important question:

Did they die from COVID-19 or did they with COVID-19?

Italy just revised their numbers and it’s quite a significant difference.

It's better to look at excess deaths since testing is so haphazard in much of the world. Current estimates are between 10-15m excess deaths world wide.

Excess deaths are not an anomaly to begin with. Year 2000 saw excess deaths, so did 2014.

Also, when you have deliberatly forced an additional 150 million people into extreme poverty to keep them healthy ( as it were ), you are bound to see a spike in deaths.

Frankly I am surprised the death toll of the brutal restrictions toward marginalized populations is not higher.

I suspect we will soon reap the dubious benefits of undoing 35 years of 3rd world progress in 22 months.

6 months ago I still cared. Now I am just numb.

Reduced from human being with rights, to a piece of diseased flesh that must be muffled, silenced, tested, regularily injected with one experimental drug after the other and preferably locked up for eternity.

To add to it, I must feel a sende of pride in partaking in this. Because it is the holy science.

My very existence is inconvenient to the experts.
