I wouldn’t believe it at all. They’ve been lying about this virus since the beginning. Why stop now?

Yep. If the jab rate was so high, why the mandates?

The NHL has been lying about the virus?

I guess that means all but 4 NHL players are proudly invincible, never subject to giving or receiving illness. Do they wipe their butts with sanitary wipes, too?

Seems I've read that the current test for Covid-19, the PCR test, is scheduled for retirement on Dec. 31 of this year. So yeah, if there's no replacement, everything becomes some other disease.

My reaction as well. I don't believe even 50% of the country is vaxxed. Our leaders are furious that they haven't brought us to heel.

The NHL is bought and paid for by Comcast (NBC) and ABC/Disney/Hearst (ESPN) who have been lying about COVID from the beginning.

Eh, they probably promised them a lifetime pass to Tim Horton's - so they all signed up for the shot.
And a lifetime supply of maple syrup, to boot.

Suspicious. How does he know and why does he care? It is none of his business.
