    Who actually personally knows someone that died because of covid?
    I know thousands of people, not 1 has died because of covid. Politicians to gain control over the people, coined this a pandemic. If it were truly a pandemic, they wouldn't have fired 46% of our nurses, and doctors, then closed over half of our local hospital.

    I know of 3 people who’ve died because of it. And 2 more that are in an induced coma from it. Now that being said, I agree with most of what you said.

    The problem is the reporting methodology. I have a friend who just prior to COVID becoming widely known in the US spent 3 weeks in ICU on ventilators and other equipment due to an unknown viral infection. Now he tests positive for the antibodies, despite having not been sick since it reached "pandemic" status. It's likely he contracted it during business travel while it was still hushed. On the other hand I know several people who contracted the virus after pandemic status (my wife included thanks to her moms church). The church her mother attends lost 3 members due to COVID, but all 3 had other comorbidities they suffered from (influenza, pneumonia, heart conditions, diabetes, etc), but the cause of death is still listed as COVID as that was their most recent diagnosis.

    COVID is real, and for some individuals has proven fatal. Whether those mortality rates are strictly due to comorbidities could be argued, but there are healthy individuals (my old coworker for example) who have been hospitalized or died while not having any known medical conditions prior to their illness. The biggest problem is that politicians, and politicians masquerading as physicians have used public fear to their advantage. This isn't Captain Trips, but then again with the misinformation, political grandstanding, and outright BS you find thanks to internet "doctors" it's difficult to ascertain the truth of the situation.

    Having been off for a week just a week and a half ago the need for monies has grown, they have also increased the need thanks to wife deciding to put dent in her new Ranger.

    When I was living in China two male school teachers were caught with two little girls. They both got life in prison with no parole, ever. I was surprised they weren't executed. Sometimes they also lose all their property and bank accounts being court ordered to give everything to the victim. Even if they're married, they still lose everything. They don't get a slap on the wrist like most do here.
