If I recall, even in the beginning it was known that kids were not getting sick right?


I mean, yes it was known by people who still had a grasp on reality.

However, what really sent the lockdown calls into overdrive was New York reporting that multiple kids in their schools had gotten it (I think they said one had been hospitalized, not 100% if i'm remembering that correct). They used that report to shut down schools and force lockdowns.

Of course, it has since come out that they completely made that up.

New York


I remember thinking the reports from New York and all the dead bodies seemed fabricated. I can't remember, but was there anything ever reported about that? If they were exaggerating what was going on?

My post has nothing to do with what I replied to. I was only stating that providers had incentive to diagnose covid over anything else.

It was sooooo deadly that everyone that died from it died in a hospital. You ignorant types still piss me off for sticking with some narrative that the head cold killed a bunch of people. Coronaviruses have been around for decades and every human body has them. When you test them, they come back positive. Simple as that. COVID barely killed anyone... intubating them and shutting down their immune system with Remsdivir did.
You do realize that all cause mortality is pretty easily measured each year (I’ll let you google that term)

My friend has never met his nieces who are under 6 and they have only seen their grandmother once. They refuse to travel and they want the grandmother to test daily and isolate herself for two weeks before she visits. It is hard for her to travel due to physical limitations.

The school had to intervene just in the last few months and request they stop sending their kids to school with masks. The girls would be in tears daily begging the teachers to let them remove the masks their arrogant parents make them wear.

Your best friend's brother has gone mad, and needs an intervention.

This is what I was talking about with regard to people acting insane at the beginning. Ready to ruin a man’s life for going out in public with zero symptoms and zero positive tests.

I don't believe so, not anythign more specific than the general country wide admission that the death numbers were grossly overstated from counting anyone that even tested positive or showing symptoms.

It did come out they NY was deliberately putting covid positive elderly back into nursing homes. So there's that

Still have to deal with masked people who travel to our area for vacation. Even my children know a masked person is a dangerous person. Mentally ill. Makes them easy to spot though.

People still believe the number of reported covid deaths. They are forced to relent on their other absurd beliefs, but that number is what allows them to save face so it will always be millions dead.

Equally hilarious are those who claimed only 6k people died from COVID.

If you did a little research you would find that, during Covid and a year later, the two leading funeral supply companies in North America, supplying to Canada, the US and Central America, supplying caskets and urns to funeral and cremation businesses, of which, between the two, they hold a 70%+/- market share, and are publicly traded, so the financial reports are publicly available, that their annual revenue over those two years did not increase above pre-covid levels.

According to Grok, 1,539,500 deaths are attributed to Covid-19, officially, by Canada, Mexico and the US.

In the US, Batesville Casket Company and Matthews International Corporation are the two giants in the funeral industry. You would think that an excess of people dying would be good for their business, but actually, both company reported only a very small increase in revenue that is attributable to the annual increase in deaths of elderly baby boomers, so you have to ask,

"If we had all these excess of deaths, why didn't the funeral business register an uptick in business?"

So I asked Grok what the increase in revenue was and it boiled down to an increase of $164 million combined over the 2020 and 2021 fiscal years as compared to 2019.

Then, I asked what the typical wholesale funeral cost is per death to the funeral homes. It is a startling figure. Apparently, funeral homes markup is typically between 300% to 500% or more above the wholesale cost, which averages about $413 per cadaver.

So, if you take $413 X 1,539,500 deaths from Covid-19, that would be a jump in revenue of $635,813,500

At a 70% market share, that's an expected increase in revenue of $445,069,450, yet, it only rose by $164 million, which is a $281,069,450 LESS than should be expected with that many deaths

The only way it is explainable is (A) the natural rise in deaths of boomers and (B) greatest majority of those deaths would have occurred naturally without the attribution of Covid-19 by doctors and hospitals to get the increased funding from the government.

when we started the two weeks thing, 1/3 of all covid deaths came from NY/NJ.



NY admitted to not differentiating died from or died with. A guy that died in a motorcycle crash in NY was a covid death.

I know someone too. That doesn't mean we weren't tricked into thinking this was going to be some horrible virus. The actions taken on the population at large were far worse than the actual risk of dying.

Most people here can’t understand that Covid was worse than the flu, but not as bad as something like Ebola.

3 people in my immediate family hospitalized (two had zero co-morbidities). Best friend and his mom were hospitalized. For comparison, I don’t know a single person who has ever been hospitalized from flu.

I was sick as hell when I got it in summer 2022. Started to recover within 24 hours with hydroxycloroquine.

Of course the government and health care system had wildly inconsistent and bizarre responses to the virus. For various reasons. The WHO didn’t admit it was airborne for over 2 years, after internal revolt from their own scientists.

Big 10 shutting down football was a perfect example. They said if it prevented ONE athlete death, football should be shutdown… ignoring that on average, 12-16 football players already die each year from playing football. By their logic, football should already be shutdown.

Where did I say send him to jail or ruin his life?

People with known OG Covid or living with someone with Covid should not have been out and about spreading it.

That goes for any respiratory infectious disease but people are selfish and will hack all over you at Church.
