No one gets treatment. Death rate goes up because patients who could had survived ended up dying because they didn’t get the treatment they needed such as failure to get oxygen.

Is the propaganda causing healthy people to fill the hospitals, consume the critical drugs and occupy all the ventilators? Or is it people with Covid 19? “

I’m sure it’s exactly what happened in El Paso Texas. The infections spread so rapidly that the hospitals filled up completely and they had to set up triage tents in the parking lots. Refrigerated trucks had to be brought in for temporary morgues. It all sounded horrible, but was it true?

It all made for sensational news but there remains one unexplainable fact. El Paso was never locked down and thousands of people from other parts of Texas continued to travel in and out of the city every day yet somehow this incredibly contagious and deadly virus never got out of El Paso. With literally hundreds of people from other cities in Texas freely going into El Paso then going back to every other major city in Texas how did this not spread?

The answer is obvious. It was a lie. If it were real it would have been all over Texas.

Yeah, go to the Japan Explorer YouTube channel and take a look at Tokyo’s young people yesterday, cowering in mortal terror. /s

The MSM is nonsense that can’t even rise to the level of adequate propaganda.

Has Japan also basically put a kabosh on any preventative measures as well as rejecting early treatment?

All deaths by Godzilla will be reported as Covid-19 deaths.

In England, they said the hospitals were full up. A few people went to these hospitals to show the world they were in fact empty. All lies.

India is the same lie. Saw a report from people in India say what the news media is reporting is made up.

Is it possible that patients are being intubated too soon thus increasing them to increase risk of severe infection and cardiac arrest among other causes of death?

To put things in perspective:
In the US, the total number of Covid deaths per 1 million people is 1816, ranked 18th of countries in the world.
In Japan, the number is 97, ranked 129th.

It may have been for effectiveness if it is the Astra Zeneca vaccinations. Studies now show that the AZ is as effective as the Pfizer vaccine if they wait 12 weeks instead of 2 weeks. We had our first Astra Zeneca vaccination here in Australia four weeks ago and the second one is schedule the first week of July. I think there is plenty of vaccines available in the UK now.

Yup. It also took too long to realize that blowing out the lungs wasn’t a viable approach.

Tell one of our anti-flat-earthers that, ok?

there’s another element, showing up in India mostly - fungi. So ivermectin and a systemic antifungal maybe after diagnosis?:
