COVID-19 continues to be a leading cause of death in the U.S. in September 2021

COVID-19 was the third leading cause of death across most of 2020, but in December 2020 and early 2021, the illness surged and briefly became the number one leading cause of death in the U.S., far surpassing even cancer and heart disease deaths in those months.

With the rapid uptake in vaccinations in the months when vaccines first became widely available, COVID-19 deaths fell sharply. COVID-19 dropped to the number 7 leading cause of death in the U.S. in July 2021.

I would argue there is no need to vaccinate children except
for a very few high risk individuals. They do not get severe illness and are not particularly good at spreading covid. Why take any vaccine risk no matter how small with them?

Your own propaganda ministry, the CDC, makes the following claim:

“About 659,000 people in the United States die from heart disease each year—that’s 1 in every 4 deaths.”

Yet, here you are trying to spread this garbage that covid kills more than that.

The third world is beating covid with Ivermectin. For some reason, we aren’t allowed to use it unless we skirt the medical profession and take hire meds or order from India. The west doesn’t want covid to go away. The “leaders” garner too much power as a result of covid fear.

I’m worried that it will negate any natural immunity and make them MORE susceptable to other diseases. We know ABSOLUTELY that natural immunity is stronger than any immunity produced by any of the vaccines.

This report never mentions the flu (because no one gets that anymore)

I think you just discovered the cure for cancer that we have been waiting for in the past hundred years.

Call it something else!

Yet, you missed Post # 1 …….

I never made such a claim that Covid kills more than Heart Disease.

I’m fully aware of the stats that web-sites contain that I post.

The “claim” from the web-site on this Thread is that in Sept. Covid surpassed Heart Disease for a time.

My own count for Covid deaths isn’t an official count as I remove some numbers……..

Presently official Covid deaths………726,000
Minus 150,000 for errors or presumed Covid deaths.
Minus 50,000 for flu deaths.

So my number is approx. 526,000 Covid Deaths since March of 2020.
That’s 19 months.

Still a lot of deaths and still China hasn’t been even remotely dealt with for this.
Far surpasses Flu Deaths.

The site I provided has the same numbers…….actually a few of the stats in your link are more.

Are you spreading mindless fear porn?

COVID-19 VACCINES continues to be a leading cause of death in the U.S.

Given that only 0.0018% of vaccinated people died from the vaccine, it doesn't make sense to me.

“As far as Powell is concerned, it was widely reported that he had a bout with Colin cancer back in the early 2000’s AND he suffered from multiple myeloma and was being treated for it. He was severely compromised to begin with and was being treated for that particular blood cancer when he died. A common cold could have ended in the same result. AND he was 84.......”

Exactly. I knew someone who died in late 2019, who had been battling multiple myeloma for about 2 years, and was only 69 years old. Had that person died a few months later, the death would undoubtedly have been attributed to “COVID”, after the requisite (and completely bogus) PCR “test” was run at 40+ cycles.

By presenting data in a cherry picked manner like this without any context, it deliberately manufactures a false send of panic and fear.

It lying by statistical manipulation. It also makes wild assumptions that the vaccine, and not the seasonality of the disease, it what caused the lower death rates during the summer months.

It also does not discuss the facts that that the current trend is significantly downwards from previous heights. Instead it focuses on one data point to manufacture an illusion.

All of these indicate we have left the realm of science and entered the realm of political propaganda in this article

Children should be tested for antibodies before jabbing them

Children shouldn’t be getting jabbed at all. THEY AREN'T AT ANY RISK from “COVID”.

“ By presenting data in a cherry picked manner like this without any context, it deliberately manufactures a false send of panic and fear.”
——————————————————————————————

I saw the same data your link had except the link I posted had additional data for vaccinated vs. not vaccinated.

Which is probably what’s bugging you.
If it scares you, just skip it. No need to live in fear.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
“ It also does not discuss the facts that that the current trend is significantly downwards from previous heights. Instead it focuses on one data point to manufacture an illusion.”
————————————————————————————————-

I clearly saw charts showing the spike in Jan., and Sept., and it shows the downward trend presently.

The site contained a variety of stats but did include exclusive stats on the death rates of vaccinated vs. unvaccinated.

Sorry, but not sorry……..in order to present all of the information about Covid properly, Death as a topic and stat will come up.

“Fear porn”, I keep hearing that phrase but fail to see anyone here afraid.
Who are these people being battered by so-called “Fear Porn”?

Perhaps the people vaccinated when they see threads claiming the vaccines have growing parasites in them, or they’ll die soon from ADE.
Is that Fear Porn?

Differences of opinion.

Past vaccines, if 25 people died, the vaccine would be shut down. For Covid, this rushed experimental "vaccine" according to VAERS has killed over 12,000, and counting.

You can bet they counted thousands with heart diseases as dying of covid because they tested positive. They have been doing that since day one.

How do you suppose someone with Heart Disease dies from contracting Covid?
Why is Heart Disease, Diabetes, COPD, or High Blood Pressure a high risk if they contract Covid?

What are your thoughts?
