(Thoughts from the UK...)
The country this year which has been most ravaged by Covid-19 – losing a shocking 1,600 people in every million to the virus at the time of writing – is Belgium.
That might come as something of a surprise. You could be forgiven for thinking it was America, thanks to Trump’s alleged ignorance of science. Or what about Britain, which locked down ‘too late’ because of its government’s short-lived but foolish belief in freedom? Or Brazil, whose right-wing leader complained that lockdowns and masks were for ‘fags’? If not those, then surely Sweden, where there has famously been no hard lockdown at all?
But no, it’s Belgium. There’s nothing particularly unusual about Belgium’s response. Nothing that diverged significantly from the consensus. It did the same thing as everyone else around the same time as everyone else. It even garnered praise for its testing capacity.

Lockdowns are evil. And part of a communist plot.
We KNOW that the WELL people who were confined wound up being the majority of the sick people. I believe Cuomo let that one slip...aaying he was stunned to find that out.
Then Fauci comes along again...and says...open the windows.
Then he says...take a walk and get some fresh air and sunshine.
But no matter what course is taken....doing a bazillion tests tell us it's all over the place....so washing your hands, wearing your masks and confining oneself has absolutely done nothing.

It wasn’t a failed experiment. It worked. The Rats scared the dumb and dumber!
The lockdowns are nothing more than a psychological stunt by the world government to condition people to accept their requests. It’s like how people stand on line for hours in places like Venezuela to purchase a loaf of bread, if it is even available.
With COVID, we are being conditioned by the government to accept unconstitutional fiats by state dictators for how we shop, dine, drive, make appointments, and live within our own homes. It was the primary cause of the fustercluck that was this election cycle. And if anyone in their right minds believe this is all about COVID, I have a bridge to sell you.
