That, too, begs the question. Why are hospitalizations for a respiratory illness going up in the summer, in spite of vaccinations?
And why are they going up, after a year and a half of "mitigation" measures, and after seven months of "vaccinations", etc.?
Pretty simple really: because everything about COVID is a lie. But by all means, let's keep doing the things that have not only not made any difference, but are evidently making things worse. Of course, it is only "evidently" because they continue to lie about everything, and never, ever put any of this in context.
