It's like they wanted people to die, am I right?

Remember all the crap we got when we tried to tell them?

What’s that noise? It’s silence!

Thread has been up for six hours and none of the usual gang have turned up to debunk the article. Maybe they’re no longer employed.

It was an ‘estimate’. A very bad, and duplicitous one.

At the time, I believe doctors and hospitals were incentivized to declare some malady COVID because of pressure from Biden’s government, and the extra government funding they’d receive for treatment for COVID. I don’t even think their tests for COVID were accurate or widely used, either. Just a ‘diagnosis’ and that was that.

The PCR ‘test’ used to identify Covid was not developed to identify Covid. The CDC said the Covid virus was unavailable when the test was created, so the test was designed to identify a ‘related coronavirus.’ So we don’t know what sick people had - one of any number of ‘related coronaviruses’ or what. Dr. Michael Yeaton, former Chief of Science at Pfizer’s Infectious Diseases wing, has made the point that the PCR test had a 100% false positive rate, as it was looking for a ‘related coronavirus’ and not Covid.
Besides, Fauci said that Covid was not related to anything our immune systems would recognize.
