Where are the rolling covid death count numbers? How many are still dying from Covid 19 or it’s variants? Must be rare, otherwise we would be hearing about it. People are waking up to the ruse. I’ve noticed that the Freepvacciners have been strangely absent on this forum lately.

I voluntarily took the first and second Moderna shots, then the first booster, and I’m sure you’ll refer to me as a Freepvacciner as I early advocated the shots but only on a voluntary basis, and never for the young. I still believe it provided a benefit in the early pandemic for those at risk, such as myself, but also believe as it mutated the effectiveness lessened while medications improved and further shots are not warranted. I am concerned with more recent statistics showing that not only are the boosters ineffective but likely detrimental.

I continue to believe Trump did the right thing in the beginning to quicken the development and distribution of the shots (agree, not a vaccine). As one at risk due to age and several co-morbidities I continue to believe the original shots were more effective than detrimental to the at risk population such as myself. I voluntarily participated in the Moderna study so I received the shots several months earlier than the initial rollout, and due to a change in job location travelled extensively during the most critical early period and had much higher exposure potential than the general population. I never contracted the original disease, and will credit that to the initial shots. I do believe they saved me from the likelihood of being sick with a substantial risk of dieing or long term effects. As part of the study I was closely monitored for the disease, with regular testing and reporting of any symptoms which would trigger a visit from the study for additional tests. We didn’t know what we were facing early on which is why I volunteered to be a Guinea pig, it was the least I could do. Again, I have always been against anyone being forced to take the shots, and leaned against shots for younger people, always against it for children as there was essentially no risk to them.

While I took the initial booster as part of the study, again months ahead of the general population, I have not taken any further booster shots and am against them. I moved mid last year and thus had to drop from the study, and by that point it seemed the effectiveness of further boosters was in doubt. Even when a booster that was supposedly improved to address variants was available I declined, and ultimately in late October I had my turn at the disease variant. I did get quite sick and as I monitor my oxygen levels could see they were going down. Fortunately I have an oxygen generator in conjunction with my CPAP and so I was able to increase my oxygen while I got prescription medicine early enough to be effective. It was a rough couple of weeks but I stayed out of the hospital. Now having survived the variant I see absolutely no need for any further boosters.

Yeah, omicron hit before a more specific vaccine was available. I tested positive, but some acquaintances had it much worse. One was an unvaccinated, unmasked young woman in her twenties—a retail employee. She passed out in her bathroom and was taken to a hospital.

That was the young woman’s second time, BTW. She caught another variant a few months earlier with the same result (passed out, low oxygen, hospital, etc.).

That’s right. These doctors are applying medical and scientific standards to the boosters that they couldn’t be bothered applying to the original vaccines.

It’s nice to see them change their tunes at this late date, but as far as I’m concerned they will have no credibility unless they surrender their medical licenses.

I’ve read many articles about the rise in total death rate in Europe, Australia and a few other countries. But I’ve not seen any figures for the US.

Why is that? Does anyone have the US total death numbers for the last three years?

Doctors have been knocked off their godly pedestals by their actions during the COVID pandemic and shown themselves to be mere flawed mortals.

Waiting for the democrat/media/big pharma/Faux-xi cheerleaders on here to say the death serum is perfectly safe with 98% efficacy.

Man, oh man, that wake up by the ones we thought were the medical experts has be excruciating slow. Let’s see now we are going on three years and the vail is finally lifting. My mind turns to Canada and all the young dead doctors who perished. Just goes to show that when it comes to your own well being there is no better guardian of your health than yourself.

They've done far worse than that. They have shown themselves to be lazy, self-serving whores, who will do and say whatever they're told as long as they get paid, Hippocratic Oath be damned.

I’m sorry, but the U.S. doctors NEVER will redeem themselves in my eyes. They knew they were lying to us through WuFlu, and it’s too late for a pretend come-to-Jesus moment.
