It wasn't a 1% death rate they're talking about, genius. It was 1% of the deaths reported as COVID deaths. A fraction of a fraction.




Not only that, but you had to first get COVID, THEN actually get sick from it.

The 1 percent suddenly becomes 1 in 5 million or so.

Right wing media is basically just fear porn these days

You do realize there was the largest mass hysteria event in the history of the world ~2 years ago because CNN told you that a virus no one was dying from was going to end the world, right? Talk about a tone deaf delusional dumbfrick lol

ETA: but yea right wing media is fear porn because people are saying that the government is going to do the exact same thing they did last election cycle to prevent in-person voting. Gotcha. What a wild conspiracy those nutjobs are creating out of thin air, huh?

You did a great job of misquoting and misusing the article. Congratulations.

Covid was the primary cause of death in 1% of the deaths with the disease last week. That’s it.

It was the primary cause of death in 30% of Covid deaths in 2021.

A woman came in to the ER after being hit head on by a drunk driver. She was in terrible shape. You could easily see she wasn't going to make it. They sent her fricking blood off to be tested and when it came back positive they put her on the Covid death list.


I remember a similar story of a guy dying from an accident on his motorcycle. He incidentally tested positive for covid. It was ruled a covid death by the hospital even though he was killed b/c of the accident. The doctor was on tape saying well you can’t prove covid didn't cause him to have the accident so it’s a covid death.

It’s crazy now after the fact how retarded people were with this. Mostly of course from one side that will continue to deny how stupid they were…..

Whatever the death count truly is, I think it's safe to say people should be careful regarding a virus, especially if old and poor health problems. At the same time, government shouldn't be allowed to shut down small businesses and churches. I think we all agree on that, just some act like they don't depending on political affiliations. You can care about others and go eat at a restaurant at the same time. Lockdowns were absolutely stupid.








We need lockdowns but protesting, riots, and infected illegal immigration is perfectly ok. Good logic

What about 3 years ago when Trump was president?

We’ve politicized this bullshite so much that many of you don’t even remember how it started and who was pushing the vaccines originally.

Are you really that stupid or deliberately skewing the data?

1% of deaths reported does not fricking equal 1% of people who got Covid died.

My god.

You can’t be this dumb. Covid is like an anchor to your immune system. If you have a preexisting condition, then covid can make your body not be able to fight and recover. I mean, this is supposed to be common knowledge.

Yes, covid is real and if you aren’t healthy, you can die. And people do die.

No, covid isn’t a killer virus that kills everyone it touches.

Just because people blame covid falsely doesn’t mean it’s not a real health hazard.

Yet the CDC was the main entity that was pushing this concept at the time. Any deaths in any hospital, mark it as covid related. Jordan Peterson had several interviews with medical professionals with hospitals across the country who were terminated because they would not toe the line. One was a cardiologist in Wisconsin who said he was pressured to have 4 heart attack fatalities, clear cut, marked as covid deaths. The House Republicans grilled the CDC's head in committee hearings & she danced all around their questions & retired 2 weeks later.

They only exaggerated the Covid death rate by 100x. What's the big deal?

I apparently have a much better memory than you, because the people in the real world (I.E. not politicians or the media) who were rabidly trying to enforce masks, virtue signaling about vaccines and how we were all in it together, and being general Covidian nutjobs were certainly not fricking republicans

I couldn’t give any less of a shite if a vaccine was developed by the Trump administration before we had the data to know that Covid was a load of BS. Red states weren’t the ones still locked down and trying to enforce mask mandates a year after everyone with a brain realized that Covid was a joke that was only mutating into a weaker virus
