Well,

Think about this.

40 years ago, when I was a child, had I gotten sick with a fever, cough, been lethargic, even if I had a hard time breathing, what would they have called it?

Once you test, you have Covid. Until then, it’s a lot of other diseases.

Not about a virus... all about money and power..

Want your freedom back ? >> Take it back.

The tyrants are never going to give it back voluntarily ... most learned in elementary school that to stop a bully, you have to stand up to the bully.

Hurry up people! Get sick!!!
Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

Quarantine the sick. Protect the vulnerable. Free everyone else.

With everything else in Australia trying to kill Australians, why would they even notice the Chicom Flu?

“Australia’s most populous state reports zero COVID cases, urges more testing”

Is that because the hospitals and medical “experts” are telling the truth about the number of positive test results?

Wasn’t that doctor in Australia who tested a Coca Cola for the ‘rona and got a positive result?

Don’t worry

New strains are being readied for export in Britain and South Africa

The fear must not be permitted to die!

I would expect infection rates to decline during the summer. We saw the same thing here in the north.

No new cases? I guess the aerosol dispensers have malfunctioned in Australia.

The last paragraphs of that NY Post article really hack me off:
However, critics have called Hill’s study conclusion premature, urging for further research before declaring ivermectin an effective treatment — citing other buzzed-about methods that ultimately failed to deliver, such as hydroxychloroquine and tocilizumab.

All we have are observational studies and clinicians’ opinions,” said University of Sydney professor Andrew McLachlan, the Daily Mail reported.

“Many of the current studies have low numbers of participants, weak study designs, and inconsistent (and relatively low) ivermectin dosing regimes, with ivermectin frequently given in combination with other drugs.”

I swear, there is NOTHING that will satisfy these people. They would have ten million people die before they would maybe utter "Gee, perhaps we should give it a try."

I've seen the meta studies that have analyzed various studies from around the world and the evidence is really solid.

It reminds me of the idiotic election fraud claims by Dems, WaPo, CNN, Twitter, et al -- "There's no evidence" or "Your evidence is debunked" or "The courts didn't find the evidence useful."
