Riiight....and this, the Expose is from the UK but I subscribe, they have good articles. I figure, without knowing much of anything, that a huge number of people in the US now “get it” re: covid. And of course, with Ivermectin, there’s no need to be concerned about it at all.

https://expose-news.com/2024/08/09/scotland-reveals-that-covid-is-no-more-deadly-than-seasonal-flu/
Public Health Scotland reveals that Covid is no more deadly than seasonal flu
A study conducted from November 2023 to March 2024 used weekly lateral flow tests for 200,000 participants in England and Scotland. It revealed that the infection fatality rate (“IFR”) for those who tested positive for covid in Scotland is 0.08%.

The IFR for seasonal flu is between 0.03 and 0.1%.
Current Best Estimate IFR of ‘Covid-19’
The Winter Covid-19 Infection Study (“WCIS”) ran from November 2023 to March 2024, involving up to 200,000 participants across Scotland and England submitting results from 32,000 lateral flow tests carried out each week.

In this update, Scotland’s estimated Infection Fatality Risk (“IFR”) across the study period from 14 November 2023 to 3 March 2024. IFR represents an estimate of the risk of death in someone who has tested ‘positive for SARS-CoV-2’.

The Overall IFR is 0.0762%.

Meaning a 99.9238% survival rate over all age groups. Bear in mind the IFR of “influenza” is said to be anywhere from 0.03%-0.1%. So “covid” is within that range.

More figures and a chart at link.

I remember the tests gave out false positives before.
