Assuming the conspiracy theories are incorrect regarding the malevolence of the “vaccine” pushers, the reaction to COVID 19 is an extreme overreaction to a disease that is far less deadly than the Spanish Flu of 1918 and is not much worse than a bad influenza outbreak.

” not much worse than a bad influenza outbreak.”

Well, depends on “much”.
Half a million people in the US died before their time last year. That’s not nothing.

The chart there is of ALL deaths, for whatever reason. A very difficult metric to manipulate.

Sure, there were other causes of increased deaths- the lockdowns no doubt caused a significant number- but covid was a huge factor.

And notice how much deaths have fallen since the vaccines and natural immunities ( I assume many celebrated Christmas and New Years) have kicked in.
