I won't elaborate but I disagree with the whole response by government media and most health officials to the way c***d ** was treated

The illness exists. My wife and I had it and survived. It's the use of it to spread fear and enable tyranny that is so h**eful. And the v*****e MAY end up having a higher death toll than the illness. By the time we find out it will be too late.

And China is already readying the next assault, with a bird flu.

audigger53 sorry late to this discussion but I think from what I read he was not a denier of C***d or thought it was a h**x what it was he didn't feel he needed to be v******ted because of his i****e s****m. Not saying I agree with his choice but the facts are that those his age usually do not die from C***d a lot less than someone my age, and there has been a small percentage of people who died as a reaction to the v*****e. So at some point it is just a risk vs benefit situation if you personally think your risk of catching or dyeing from c***d based on your own risks or vulnerabilities and/or you think the risks for you in taking the v*****e is unacceptable then that is your choice and should not be shamed for it. After all why are we not seeing headlines or stories saying "v*****e believer dies from v*****e" it has happened several thousands times and they would clearly have been better off not to have taken the v*****e. Of course they will say those people most likely would have died anyway from catching c***d if they hadn't been v******ted but the same thing can be said about the people who die because they don't find the risk of the v*****e acceptable they most likely would have died from the v*****e anyway if they would have taken it. Both are faulty logic and both are not logical responses. The right response would be to feel sorry for the family in both cases who lost a love one and realize life in itself is a fatal condition that will end in all our deaths sooner or later and maybe the correct response is to ponder our own mortality.

Well said DC.

Yes there is always the hype anything up news channels, until Andrew hit Florida there were many warnings and updates on hurricane's,since then it has turned into a media circus,constant unrelenting news casts, it has put fear into people to the point of causing total packed highways like Rt95 where cars are just stuck and do not move ,many that ran out of gas,waiting for the hurricane to arrive,I have lived thru many here in 35 years, Being prepared is the best way to deal with them.
There are many risks in life. How many people got the multi shots in school,I know of no one that had a choice of not getting the shots, but it had risk factors that included a percentage of illness and death. It may sound crazy but the cereal that many eat is allowed by law to have a certain % of rat crap in it.This is just crazy to me but it's a fact. Who is it that determines what % of death rate is acceptable. The population of the US has much more than doubled in my lifetime, the social and economic problems that are and will face this nation in the future will be unbelievable, imagine the population at 1 billion.We have 65-75% of Grandparents raising their grandchildren for a multitude of reasons,I would say that most of them are because of drugged up zombies that never should have had children. Millions that die from drugs directly and many indirectly.All of this for the need to escape reality, It is in many different forms,alcohol,drugs,mental imbalance,and many more
I ask all on here ,what is so bad about reality that so many have to escape it? I have had,and am still dealing with deamon's of my own, but no longer have any need to escape reality. One day at a time--tick--tick--tick as they go by.

Reality is the one thing that you CAN’T escape. I’m not sure why people think they can.🤷‍♂️

For many it is a temporary escape,alcohol is more used than most. It lets them escape for a bit, I know of no one that consumes it to be normal.the chemical changes in the brain are unbelievable, it removes most people's inhibitions,sometimes it's Jeckel and Hyde,but it is an escape from reality,for most it's temporary,and when it wears off they are right back to dealing with the reality that they wanted to get away from, for some it's an addiction,for others it's alcoholism.
Thanks to the Sackler family we have a million dead Americans in the last 30 years,They had a war with America that they planned,implemented ,put into motion with any and all lies that they could.Thanks to their actions they got very,very rich from making the opioid crisis in this nation.They are now trying to get the supreme court to protect them from millions of law suits. This is some of the evil in our corporations, profit even if your customers die.The junkies want to know where the latest junkies are dieing so they can go there and get the really good stuff. It's just sickening. We in The US have the greatest numbers of alcoholism in the world,. Why ? It is intrenched in our society,They tried prohibition,we all know what came out of that mess,The mob and a lot of gangsters.
I do not have the answers that would make change for the better. I know and understand the argument that no one forced the drink into someone or got the junkie hooked. It has to start with educating at the earliest times, open the young minds to reality,life,and how precious it is.Teach kids how to fish would be a small start, let them see there is no reason to escape reality.

I couldn’t agree with you more.

“Colorado coroner calls out how c***d deaths are reported” google it. Two of the five officers listed as dying from c***d actually died from gunshot wounds. “They tested positive for c***d but that’s not what k**led them. The gunshot wound is what k**led them”. They’re trying to keep the numbers up and have reported a thousand deaths related to c***d that were not. Just over 4000 deaths reported as “c***d related” when in actuality the number is just over 3100 and those were just “related” to c***d. They don’t say how. It sounds like scare tactics and dishonesty to me. Kinda the norm now days. 🤔
