Is covid still a problem? I’m more worried about nuclear war.

--- "Confirmed deaths by race and ethnicity in California -- Black 6.9%

Hmm.

Source: https://covid19.ca.gov/state-dashboard/

"California has 8,361,704 confirmed cases of COVID-19, resulting in 83,992 deaths."

( 83,992 California deaths over 26 months / 39,613,493 Californians ) x 100 = 0.212 % mortality rate for Californians.

Percentage of Californians not dead from Covid -- ( 100 % - 0.212 % ) = 99.788 %.

“Low Vitamin D levels likely”

*****

Yep, and .gov knows it, but are they sending people Vitamin D, which could be done so inexpensively and would help so many? No, they just push the vax, even if the vax itself causes problems, and the mandating of the vax causes problems.

Why do they love that jab so much? They love it more than anything else.

Blacks are 7.65% of 2000 (total population) according to demographics.

6.9 % is less that 7.65%. Confirmed.

Furthermore, darker skinned people absorb less vitamin D.
