Where are the statistics? What was the population number in 1918 for the US, maybe 120 million.

I've read that the death toll from the spanish flu was between 500,000 to 1.5 million.

The "experts" claim that there were 1 million deaths from covid in the US from a population of 330 million people and some of those deaths were people who died in a car accident etc., but tested positive for covid it was due to covid.

Discuss, hope there are some staticians, to provide answers.

Covid was devastating to the elderly. Naturally, we had many elderly here in the US.

Utter BS.

The 1918 flu pandemic was declared over in 18 months and they stopped counting.

These treasonous fools have kept counting for FOUR years based on sloppy statistics and piss poor public health management that encouraged deaths of the infirm and aged.

And Covid magically wiped out the Flu. The Flu disappeared during the plannedemic.

Conveniently and coincidentally released just in time to be used at the debate by the RAT operatives posing as moderators.

We’ll never know the real true number because people that died while having covid but actually died of some other cause were many times counted as covid deaths.

That skewed the data to the point the real number is unattainable.

That's fine because more deaths happened on Biden's watch due to delta and omicron variants.

At this point there's no way to know how many people COVID actually killed.

It's common knowledge that people who showed up at the hospital for something automatically were tested for COVID (which the hospitals got extra $$ for doing) and if they died from that "something" and they happened to have COVID it got counted as a COVID death, which the hospital got paid for as well.

Them's the facts. If there is no way to separate the died by instead of died with the actual number of true COVID deaths is unknowable so this article is bullshit. They don't know.

Covid killed a lot of people.

Politics were not involved. Of course, you can imagine that the island of Tonga thought that if they took severe measures to refuse all arrivals that would affect the US presidential election. I’m sure there are wackos who do imagine that.

There is no evidence the vax generated deaths beyond what was published in the Phase I and Phase II clinical trials. You know, the data you did not read.

The vax killed no one from 0-45, and largely, the virus didn’t either. Excess Deaths beyond 2019 projected/expected in that age group just do not exist.

If you disagree, go get the data. Don’t go searching for wackos to claim to have gotten the data. You don’t need them. Get the data yourself. It’s easy. And then after you do, have a look at Excess Deaths over the relevant time frame of Italy — or to really open your eyes, Peru.

Pharmaganda


Pharmaceutical industry propaganda
That study in the latest issue of JAMA was full of problems, it was nothing more than pharmaganda.
a toxic mix of pseudoscience, marketing and government coercion in the service of profit with no concern for public health or safety.

I wonder what the death toll would be if they didn’t have the protocol of respirators while denying the use of Ivermectin. They have blood on their hands. So much for “do no harm”.

"Covid was devastating to the elderly."

No worse than the seasonal flu. The infection rates and the death toll were deliberately skewed by the feds paying increasing medicare payments an extra 20%. If a hospital patient's bill totaled $10,000 the hospital would make an extra $2000 for putting 'covid' down instead of 'flu.'

Congress increased Medicare payments for inpatient COVID-19 admissions by 20% during the public health emergency (PHE), established coverage and payment for administering COVID-19 vaccines, and increased payments for telehealth services, and HHS waived certain regulatory restrictions, such as allowing for expanded coverage of Medicare telehealth services. Congress also provided accelerated or advance payments as loans to providers participating in traditional Medicare to ease cash flow disruptions during the pandemic.

I’ve had several relatives get Covid. They are all still with us.

I’ve also had several relatives get the experimental mrna gene therapy.
3 out of 5 of them are now dead from clots and strokes. (a 4th is still in trouble.)
