COVID surge ‘swallowing’ people in India, footage shows people dead in streets

People in India are dying in the streets amid a catastrophic surge of COVID-19 infections — prompting an oxygen shortage and mass cremations to deal with the overwhelming amount of bodies.

“The virus is swallowing our city’s people like a monster,” said Mamtesh Sharma, an official at the Bhadbhada Vishram Ghat crematorium in Bhopal.

Sharma said the unprecedented crush of bodies has forced them to skip individual ceremonies and rituals that are Hindu traditions.

When this all started I thought, if India gets this thing, katy bar the door, it’s probably fortunate for the rest of the world, that at least they got it on the back-end, instead of the front-end.

I have said all along that there was not just 1 virus virus that materialized out of thin air at the market which happened to be next to a biolab where they studied things like this, there were many.

the first virus we saw in wuhan was nothing like the one that we are vaxing against and has been a turning point for power in this world

so are Soros, Gates, the Rothschilds, Rockefellers, Windsors and every other top 1 percenters in the world’s ruling class. I surmise India is now being salted with the COVID because China is likely conditioning India for a possible quick military conflict and victory.

Looks like they got hit with a variant that is more transmissible, leading to a spike that simply overwhelmed their system.

Is it possible it could be the African variant that has shown to be 8 times more likey to breakthru a vaccinated person vs a person who contracted COVID naturally and recovered? Which would lend credence to the spike after mass inoculation as shown in the chart on this thread. India is not too far from Africa.

That’s because HCQ is not the magic bullet some would like it to be

“Believe nothing of what you hear, and only half of what you see. That doesn’t mean it isn’t actually happening but tread lightly in giving confidence to the media or the government as they have both been very guilty of lying about even the simplest things.”

I have been reading some blogs from Indians in the US talking to their relatives in India. It very very bad. I have seen the pics they are posting of people stacked up like cordwood.

Double mutant virus meets third world with minimal healthcare.

There are probably a dozen or so incorrectly assigned deaths across the US. Out of ~586,000 COVID-19 deaths.

Now look at March 2020 when there were no COVID-19 tests available and there was a sudden unexplained spike in heart disease and dementia deaths in the New York City area. A spike which instantly vanished when COVID-19 tests became available.

Throughout 2020, deaths from cancer and heart disease (along with pretty much every other normal cause of death) were at or slightly above normal levels. Yet the TOTAL deaths in 2020 rose by over 17% in the US. A normal year-over-year increase is 0.3% - 0.7%. But in 2020, we had over 530,000 extra deaths. During a pandemic. In which millions of doctors and nurses around the country reported losing scores of patients to the new disease.

It takes some real Olympic level mental gymnastics to explain why those two things are unrelated and where those half million new deaths came from.

It is true. One of many videos below:

https://youtu.be/hVVlxzjtrjw

What happened was a perfect confluence of three things:

1) The world’s largest religious festival that served as a super-spreader event
2) Large political rallies (and India knows how to do ‘large’)
3) A healthcare system that simply couldn’t cope with a sudden influx of many sick people needing urgent attention.

As for how much of what you see is true, the irony is that it is NOT. The truth is far worse than what you’re seeing. Like the Chinese government, the Indian government is trying to suppress real numbers. Unlike China though, India is not able to pull the same dacronian moves and thus information is coming out.

It’s a nightmare over there. Not politics, no Democrats or Republicans there. Just people trying to survive in a healthcare system that has burst its seams.

Except we don’t have anywhere near that many Covid deaths, my guess is maybe 150,000

Have these NY Post idjits ever seen what goes on over by the ‘sacred’ Ganges? Dying in the streets isn’t new in India.

"The country’s Health Ministry on Sunday reported another 2,767 fatalities in the past 24 hours, bringing the country’s mounting death count to 192,311." Honestly, if we have over a half million deaths, I'm surprised India doesn't have a million.

The current population of India is 1,390,790,274 as of Monday, April 19, 2021. Look at this carefully. That is ONE BILLION,THREE HUNDRED NINETYMILLION,SEVEN HUNDRED NINETY THOUSANDpeople!!

India has over FOUR TIMES the population of the USA and about about ONE THIRD the number of deaths attributed to the china virus compared to the USA.

The report is pure bs and just more fear porn aimed at the gullible and non thinking public.

China stands to gain wherever it uses biological weapons.
They need to be stopped, really stopped-along with their cohorts.
And we know who they are.
JoeBama will do NOTHING to stop China because China owns JoeBama for a number of reasons and that includes the 2020 election.

Widespread reports from across India accuse the government of massive under reporting. They already got caught hiding COVID-19 deaths last year: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-54985981

HCQ doesn’t work. It appeared promising at first, but we now know - conclusively - that it’s useless with COVID-19. Same with Remdesivir. Mostly the same with Ivermectin (appears potentially useful at reducing hospitalization rates if given well before the case escalates, but useless once somebody is very ill). The only thing that’s worked well is the treatment President Trump got: monoclonal antibody therapy. And that’s not a perfect cure-all by any stretch. It’s also way too expensive for nearly all Indians.
