Now that I’m old, I worry more about how I will die than when I will die.

I would not trust news from KFF. They were very big proponents of the very protocols that caused great harm.

“Around 900,000 older adults have died of Covid-19 to date, accounting for 3 of every 4 Americans who have perished in the pandemic”

Seems like old sick folks die from it much more than other demographic groups.
(How many did KilerKingCuomo add to that tally?)

And why then exactly are we giving ChiComWuHu kill Shots to healthy teenagers? Birthing age women? Elementary school kids?

Ya can’t have “Science!” both ways.

How many have died from flu and pneumonia in that time versus other time periods? My guess is this respiratory virus has just replaced the other ones that got to people who were already weak and sickly.

I received notice that my term life insurance payment was going to over $600 per month in January 2024. I called the insurance company to see about a new policy with a lower coverage. $100k was fine. They wanted "medical" exam as I'm 67. Fine. Off to Idaho Falls for a blood/urine sample. The results came back. High GGT and ALP. Lower serum albumin and cholesterol. High BNP. The agent called. Application declined.

I visited my doctor with the results. Retested with the addition of CBC/electrolytes. BNP was better. Others mostly the same. Most cell counts are below the minimums.

The only thing significant medically since my last "good" exam in 2018 has been two cases of COVID (Jan 2022/Jan 2023). I recovered both times and didn't seek any medical attention.

I'm off for a liver scan next Thursday. The lab results are consist with feeling tired and washed out. The AST/ALT numbers are fine, so my doctor wasn't immediately calling foul on my liver. I suspect COVID may have played a role in the bad labs.

Correction: over 900,000 older adults have died WITH C19.

I suspect more are dying due to the Covid shot than are dying from a Covid virus. By the way, do they still categorize someone who is up to two weeks out from being vaccinated/boosted as “unvaccinated”?

Also, with health care workers being hired on DEI principles rather than merit, is it possible that symptoms of serious illnesses which were caught early and treated in the past are now being overlooked?

Older white voters vote Republican... I’m guessing the progressive/commie deep state is thrill they’re dying.

The Vax is destroying their immune system. That has been clear once you get past the “antibodies “ test and look at what antibodies. They have been programmed to not fight viral infections via igg3 igg1 response.

I will say that the VidVax people should be prepared for payback. Fair is fair.

They are dying WITH Covid. Possibly. Not FROM it.
Stop the scare tactics CNN/MSM.

As the wise man observed, don’t sweat old age, it doesn’t last very long.

Yep. They were caught lying about all the Covid” deaths before. So its not just that nobody cares now, it’s that nobody cares because they don’t believe CNN and other State propaganda organs now.

That’ one of the problems with liars and lies.

My father’s neighbor, a filthy rich retired farmer, would bring over a bottle of tequila and always proclaim, “This gettin’ old, it ain’t for wimps!”

The death toll was shocking, as were reports of chaos in nursing homes and seniors suffering from isolation, depression, untreated illness, and neglect.

THAT is what is killing them.

Most of those in nursing homes are not in great shape to begin with or else they wouldn't be there. For most of them an ordinary cold is enough to push them over the edge.

But the left gets far more mileage out of blaming Covid and scare mongering the rest of us. Or trying to.
