RSV. Last winter it was all over the place. Same as Covid, except no fever and not as lethal.

1. Impeachment failed.
2. A new virus was discovered in China.
3. President Trump banned flights from China.
4. The Democrats yelled that he was being racist.
5. The Democrats thought about it a little more and decided no crisis should go to waste.
6. The Democrats’ Presidential nominee was in bad health and couldn’t do much campaigning and probably would have to remain in his home.
7. Democrat SCIENTISTS recommended EVERYONE be confined to their homes, thus disguising their nominee’s ill health, while at the same time the roaring economy under Donald Trump was halted.
8. With law-abiding Americans confined to their homes, the Democrat storm troops — Antifa and BLM — had the run of America’s deserted streets, to destroy the economy further and spread their propaganda.
9. Democrat Governors laid down the law, decreeing that their constituents’ businesses remain shuttered, so the formerly-vibrant Trump economy would remain dormant.
10. Americans were ordered to be masked (a modern burka) so everywhere they looked they were reminded of THE FEAR.

And here we are. “Social Distancing” and hand-washing were only helpful hints along the way to keep THE FEAR going.

People hate like hell to admit that they’ve been gaslighted, but we’ve been gaslighted. After the Deep State and its foreign partners failed at impeachment, destroying the robust Trump economy through FEAR was next on their list.

We have simply been at the mercy of corrupt, horrible people. And President Trump’s comments at his rallies lately indicates he knows that VERY well.

I didn’t say anything about masks, I don’t wear one. And washing your hands is unnatural? Ok, Doctor.

Every flu case is now being called COvId.

OCD disinfecting - which prevents the mutual sharing of germs, bacteria & viruses, acts which are currently performed in conjunction with mask use (hence my citation) - will decimate the population’s future ability to combat illness in developed countries which enact such policies and promote such fear.

To deny the reality under the ‘hygiene hypothesis’ exposes a fundamental ignorance, exacerbated by your doubling down with critique when I was trying to educate you.

Oversanitization will lay the foundation for the next mass culling, possibly in my lifetime.

But hospital emergency rooms are not full of “Covid” patients. Not even 20 percent are Covid related.

You seem to care about facts, stuff that one in your pipe and smoke it. (ie. Do your research before “fact” shaming with CCP Party talking points.)

Cause the shame, is yours.

Other than 94% of the results were confused with Covid according to the CDC.

Amazing what a few grand of a bribe worth of hospital subsidies for deaths of Covid will do to statistics.

Cash apparently is very confusing to hospital administrators. It makes them lie, 94% of the time.

God help us if it replaces seasonal flu.
China may have screwed the planet here.

Yeah, because a virus with a fatality rate literally the same as the flu is going to be the end of humanity.

Get a grip.

So washing my hands is "oversanitization? And wiping down a restaurant table is OCD disinfecting?

Are you for real, Dude or Dudette?

You sound like you're willing to lick the floor of the VIP Room at the strip club. Have at it.

The 207-18 flu pandemic had 54 million known infections that resulted in medical attention by family doctors. Imagine how the numbers would have been inflated had they had wide spread testing like they have today..........

Yep, exactly!

I don’t understand how people can wear a mask for say, two hours, and feel ”safe”.

How did you BREATHE for those two hours?

Did the MASK supply your oxygen? (No, it all came from OUTSIDE your mask)

Did the MASK hold everything you EXHALED in that time? (Again-No, it all went right back out of your mask for other folks to breathe)

This mask fetish is absolutely ridiculous.
