They are using ignorance of probability and statistics to stoke fear.

If you give millions of people around the world a pink jelly bean, several are going to die. They were going to die anyway. Do we conclude pink jelly beans kill people?

Well, no one has been pressured into eating a killer jelly bean out of fear of a (fake) pandemic. And moreover, jelly beans are not on the recommended/presumed mandatory treatment list for schools and possibly for employment.

Why the big marketing vax campaign for a disease with such a low mortality? And at the same time, denial of therapeutics or of the existence of effective therapeutics by the same people pushing the vaccine.

Well, some people so conclude. If you really want to see a PINK JELLYBEAN HOLOCAUST, distribute pink jellybeans to large numbers of frail elderly people in institutions undergoing palliative care and/or terminal cancer patients in hospice care and count the deaths that eventually follow. There will be huge numbers of deaths associated with pink jellybean consumption.

THE HORROR.... THE HORROR!
