Covid will be a leading cause of death in the U.S. indefinitely

LINK Covid will be a leading cause of death in the U.S. indefinitely, whether or not the pandemic is 'over'
Disease experts predict that Covid will remain among the top 10 causes of death in the U.S. for the foreseeable future.

After President Joe Biden said the coronavirus pandemic was "over" in an interview Sunday, many people were left wondering how to reconcile his comment with the fact that the U.S. is still averaging about 500 Covid deaths every day.
But disease experts said debating whether the pandemic is over overshadows a more important concern: the reality that Covid will remain a leading cause of death in the U.S. indefinitely.
"It’s likely, when we think of the causes of death in our society, that Covid’s on the list probably forever,” said Dr. Bob Wachter, the chair of the University of California, San Francisco’s department of medicine.
"Whether we call it a pandemic or not, it’s still an important threat to people," he added.
Covid was the third-leading cause of death in the U.S. in 2020, after heart disease and cancer, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The same was true last year, provisional CDC data shows. Since April, Covid deaths have stayed relatively flat, at a weekly average of around 300 to 500 per day. If the trend continues, the U.S. could expect 113,000 to 188,000 deaths a year from Covid, putting it on par with Alzheimer’s, chronic lower respiratory diseases and stroke.
Flu, by comparison, kills about 12,000 to 52,000 people annually. Flu and pneumonia combined were the ninth-leading cause of death in 2020; they fell out of the top 10 last year.

It's a weaponized gain-of-function virus with no effective vaccines, what do you expect?

how if everyone wore masks and got vaccinated?

I said this when it started. See the Lawyer ads on TV about lead, asbestos, with other things? You’ll start seeing lawyers line up taking on big Pharma. The shot/jabs at some point will be proven to have caused harm over time.

Wherever it lands in the killer rankings, it will be just another thing to kill you when you get very old, immunocompromised or become a fat frick (pretty significant problem in the US, but not for the fit men of this board), but there's nothing to be done but live your life, stay healthy and fund research.

This is "damage control" in the wake of Brandon's gaffe of saying something that his handlers specifically prohibited him from saying. Just like how Pelosi tried to walk back his remark as well.

Unevenly trimmed toenails would be a leading cause of death in the U.S. indefinitely if every person admitted to the hospital with unevenly trimmed toenails was recorded as an "unevenly trimmed toenail patient," whether the unevenly trimmed toenails were why, or even part of why, the patient was being admitted. And when they died of the heart issue, cancer, or whatever that actually brought them to the hospital, their death records would reflect "Cause of Death: 4 gunshot wounds to the back of the head and unevenly trimmed toenails."
At this point, if you haven't figured out that you've been scammed, your bigger issue is retardation. Not the possibility of getting the sniffles again.

Lawyers do a great service. They said if you were in army training camp in 1953 and are suffering from ill health today they can help you out.

You may be correct. This lab engineered virus is perfectly designed to cull .5% of the population indefinitely. We should expect these evil SOBs to unleash similar viruses in the future for population control.

And deaths to flu and pneumonia will drop significantly.

All vaccination deaths that they know are coming will be called Covid related deaths.

It’s a bio weapon what do you expect. The genocidal injections will kill more by a long shot.

True, but its going to be hard to keep the morticians quiet about the 4 foot long fibrous blood clots they are pulling out of people's bodies.

God knows your death date. Not a thing can be done to change it.

What if took two weeks off to flatten the curve?
