That time when the WHO left their flu data up and it showed that covid somehow eradicated the flu.

So since, as you say, no facts were available, what justification was there for schools being shutdown, the economy being destroyed, people not allowed to leave their house or visit relatives, vaccine mandates, etc..?


Pretty much all of the foundations for that were laid in Italy, where the overall fatality rate in mid March was over 7% and medical systems being overwhelmed despite being an advanced and modern Western country

Debra Birx and her iconic scarf.

Studies infectious diseases and pandemic response her entire life then abruptly decides to retire during the middle of covid to spend more time with family.

Changes mind later and writes book outlining what we should've done and where the covid response went off the rails.

Thank you for your service.

Have you ever agreed to give out samples of a certain drug because the rep was unbelievably hot no judgement here I’ve seen them chicks they could sell me a bag of garbage.

Never forget when everybody got insta-rich off PPP loans.

There was a time during covid when sports cars were on back order. Hellcats, porches, vetts ...

Boats, ATV and motorcycle dealer lots were thin.

So many people were buying boats during covid that if you put a for-sale sign on the old tri-hull behind memaw's garage it would sell for top dollar.

Mom and pop stores are shut down, but Wal Mart, Target, Home Depot and Lowe's are busier than ever. The largest transfer of wealth from the middle class to the 1% in human history, and yet leftists cheered it on. Supposed "punks" and anti-establishment types like Jello Biafra and Tom Morello cheered big pharma dictates and government mandates restricting personal liberty and autonomy.

Well if you don’t want to lose a six figure job or lose the ability to go on campus then yeah, you’re kind of forced.

Yeppers. All in the movies.

They have similar programs for flu shots.


Insurance companies attempting to lower their exposure to more expensive hospital stays by offering providers incentives for wellness prigrams has been going on forever.


A doctor isn't going to push unneeded meds for a $100.

Obviously, there may be some unscrupulous doctors, just as in any profession, but it isn't typical.

Why would someone at that age get vaccinated WITH covid?

Vaccinated prior to getting covid*

Sorry that wasn’t clear

This board is full of people who I am convinced, dont know dick about healthcare or the medical profession.

We have oilfield baws, plummers, and mechanics who for the past 6 years have claimed to be experts in virology and medical research and to know better than physicians. It’s hilarious if you ignore how stupid it is.

Because it’s highly illegal.

This. Or how about JBE sending the fire marshal office and state police to Livingston parish to shut down a restaurant while he's on the front page of the Advocate sitting around a bunch of people at the Country Club of LA without his mask on. And does this after saying, "you can hate me, just hate me with a mask on".
