The claims of being overwhelmed in the West were disproven by the tiktok videos of nurses dancing in hospitals the last 2 years.

Thanks for the update!

We've all been praying for him (and you & yours).

Wales is replete with great quotes:

"It's not for eatin' - it's for lookin' through."

And the always famous Granny Hawkins (You be the Josey Wales?):

In the USA it was a preemptive measure that proved to be grossly exaggerated when pictures of dancing nurses and empty hospital ships started showing up. Smaller, poorer countries actually were overwhelmed. But it didn't take much to overwhelm them.

“How many are dying now.”


Well under 10 per day:

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/portugal/#graph-deaths-daily

Portugal population: 10,160,000...recent per capita deaths per day: 0.00000069
USA population: 333,437,000...recent per capita deaths per day: 0.00000427 (6x the death rate of Portugal).

Someday (maybe) it would be interesting to run through those worldmeter graphs and compare them between countries, states, etc. I was comparing Portugal to Florida (2x the population) and Florida was much higher - even in the times before the vaccines came out.

I’m guessing people will be looking at it for years, but there are just so many variables. Age, climate, food, health resources, reporting issues, the numerous various vaccines, etc.

I tend to believe the usefulness of Ivermectin. One chart of Africa shows the high use of Ivermectin in certain countries and the low number of deaths in those countries compared to other African countries. However, someone pointed out that those countries (some of the poorest) probably also have the worst record-keeping abilities as well. The dead are just put in a local grave and they move onto the next person.

Yeah, the “de-brief” in a year or so on COVID-19 treatments and vaccines will be interesting.

The new AV pill that could shorten what is left of the pandemic:

So go watch a movie to understand reality? Got it.

From the article:

“Molnupiravir works in a manner different from other antiviral drugs, creating multiple errors in the virus’s RNA and impairing its ability to replicate. Because there is not much experience with this mechanism, Pavia said, safety data will need to be scrutinized.”

The study used 762 patients. I’m guessing only half of those took the drug and the rest a placebo.

I guess I’ll be in the control group with the pill as well, in spite of Fauci ordering millions of units of it already.

You are in the Ivermectin/Hydroxychloroquine “control groups” too? ;-) Sorry, had to.

When do we get to go plunder everything there? Because in a few years there won’t be a Portugal left.

Covid deaths in Portugal 6 per day out of 10 million . Georgia USA has about 10 million people also, and is averaging 89 Covid deaths per day.
IMHO the vaccines work.

If the USA has the same COVID vaccinated fatality rate that Portugal has, the USA has 1,610 vaccinated COVID fatalities each week.

333,437,000 X 0.00000069 = 230 deaths per day

230 X 7 = 1,610 deaths per week

To put that in perspective, before the Delta Variant spike began, the USA averaged 1,800 total COVID deaths per week for two months.

It is completely plausible that the Delta Variant germinated in the vaccinated population, and that vaccinated persons are the Delta Variant super spreaders in the USA.

IMPRESSIVE by Portugal. Well done!

Now, a couple of orders of magnitude reduction from here and they’ll get to where Uttar Pradesh (in India) is, but to be fair, they did cheat in India, by the widespread use of Ivermectin.

But Portugal is doing very well, when measured by vaccine standards!!
