As the US reaches 1 million COVID-19 deaths, Congress still has work ahead

I remember passing the National Mall in Washington, D.C. last September where small white flags stuck up from the ground almost as far as I could see. On many of the flags were the names of loved ones lost in the pandemic. At that time, at least 673,484 people had died from COVID-19 in the United States.

Today, just seven months later, that number has nearly doubled. Now, 1 million people in the United States have been lost to COVID-19. About 24 million more people are currently suffering from long COVID, which created at least 1.2 million disabled adults in 2021 compared with the year prior. More than 200,000 children have lost a primary parent or caregiver to COVID-19. It’s a somber day and one that must be used to catalyze a Congress that has become anesthetized to so much illness and pain.

I’d say off hand that 1 percent of say 300 million people in the USA would die minimum each year or more as a 100 year life for everyone is a stretch.
So you know where I’m going with this if you have brain function .
A million over the 2 years of wuhan scamdemic fraud what about the 5 million others who died
Show stats on true causes of death not cooked books to get giver mint muny
Stop the steal they are still at it

Yes. But there are many (including some who frequent these forums) who don’t understand why people think it is important to make that distinction of “died OF COVID” vs. “died WITH COVID”.

I think it goes right to the heart of the matter. The biggest problem I have (apart from the forced injection, the lockdowns, and mask wearing which are downstream from my main issue) is that there was no proper risk assessment done with this.

It was nearly entirely emotionally and politically driven. I have a background working with radiation and isotopes, and am well versed in risk assessment, which you have to be when dealing with radiation, as it is part and parcel of that.

A real, honest risk assessment would have avoided the things that have destroyed our economy (apart from the intentional damage by this administration)

Saying that is not saying that COVID is a hoax. COVID itself is not a hoax, and a lot of people HAVE died OF COVID. But the handling of it IS a hoax, and a travesty.

So, differentiating between “of COVID” and “with COVID” is an important part of an honest risk assessment, and that has been blurred. And I am not ruling out that it was intentionally blurred, either.

Oh, please. None of the “covid” numbers is reliable.

No mRNA vaccine has ever been approved because no mRNA vaccine has ever passed the clinical trial stage.

None of the Fauci/China biological warfare virus mRNA “vaccines” have gone through the standard approval process because they knew they would not make it.

The were released under Experimental Use Authorization (EAU), making the use of them experimental research.

Involuntary human experimentation is a violation of the Nuremberg Code.

Barack Obama even bragged a few weeks ago that they had conducted clinical trials on the world population.

actually, it’s much worse.

the word is “deemed” died of the wuflu. any respiratory illness, no test necessary for some docs, hospital malpractice with the faschi, big pharma treatments, or diagnosed with or without a valid pcr test (of which only a handful of ref labs around the country could reliably perform), and after 2021, of a mrna adverse effect deemed due to ccp virus, was good enough for the lying CDC stat reports.

the actual number is probably less than 6% (the number admitted to by the CDC) died of “covid” alone.

the ccp still needs to pay, but others died “with” it as a contributing factor (age, pre-existing cond, immuno-compromised), but statistically would have died at probably similar rates of some other combination of conditions. that’s obviously not an excuse for the ccp lauching the bio weapon. I would guess the number of those between 100K-200K.

and no one knows how much “long covid” there is. there’s no way to get that number given the number of variants, other infections, etc. that’s just a made up number, bald faced lie.

As the above chart clearly shows, if everybody would use Ivermectin and/or HCQ as prophylaxis for early intervention, we wouldn't need vaccines that are actually bioweapon killers, "requirements," multiple boosters, mandates, masks, lockdowns, 940 pages of rules, expensive designer drugs, etc, and the CCP virus and it's variants would disappear in a month.

Head of Tokoyo Medical Assoc. recommends Ivr.

No one I know who has taken Ivr or HCQ on a regular basis since this PLANdemic started has caught the China virus.

“I really have a hard time believing anything the news, or government, states anymore.”

True.

It’s almost all lies.
