You’ve got that one right.

REMEMBER in NOVEMBER!

Without election integrity it won't matter how you vote. It not only is issue #1 it is the only issue. Nothing else matters until that is fixed and the enemy won't even admit it happened.

News of the day: I had SARS-CoV2 a few weeks ago and it didn’t kill me. Although it’s nothing to eff around with because I’m still sort of weak.

It’s never been about anyone’s health here.

Not quite sure where you stand on this issue - it's unclear whether you are praising Australia's draconian measures or not - but my health is exclusively my business, and I don't want an intrusive, busy-body Big Govt. dictating to me how to manage my health.

Do you share that sentiment? Or just where do you stand here?

Regards,

When you are counting different things, numbers are meaningless.

How true!

My neighbor has three times as many apple trees growing in his front yard as I have dimples in my chin!

How does that compare?

We don’t not yet know how many people lockdowns killed.

crap. Australia is an island. America is not. Australia was able to lock down until vaccines came. America could not. But Australia as it turns out, locked down too hard. They did it after vaccines. They vaccinated too many. Especially the younger people who did not need the vaccine.

The deaths in Australia went up millions while far fewer, maybe only 5000 were attributed to COVID. Those extra deaths were a result of lock downs and extra vaccines.

Nobody did a perfect job. But being an island was an asset. And buying vaccines from America for old people was very helpful. The CDC and WHO did horrible jobs. Our hospitals did not do well. Our media did the worst of all.They stopped good ideas from making it to the public.

Fauci is equal to Mengele in his ethics and stalin in his murders.

Didn’t force Remdesivir on anyone going near a hospital?

And yet- total US deaths did not rise during the “pandemic.” Mysteriously, though, after the deadly variants were replaced by mild variants (which technically weren't even covid), deaths from all causes increased in synchrony with vaccine adverse events.

I share your sentiment, and apologize that I wasn’t clearer.

“Folks, I know that you are skeptics of this article, but I wish you’d at least tell us your reasons for disbelieving what it says instead of simply saying: “I don’t believe it.” ( or in similar words ).”

The U.S. In fact has a lower case per capita than Australia.

The rates of deaths and cases are going up steeply in Australia now, from almost zero until the beginning of this year, whereas the rest of the works is at the lowest levels ever.

Australia is just beginning.

The case rate is higher than the U.S. but the U.S. death rate is about ten times higher.

Why?

“Yet Australia’s COVID death rate sits at one-tenth of America’s, putting the nation of 25 million people (with around 7,500 deaths) near the top of global rankings in the protection of life.”

Importantly, this is a lie.

The death rate in Australia is 58th in the world, not near the top.

Japan is better, Egypt, Venezuela, Taiwan, Liberia, Cambodia, New Zealand are some examples of the 57 countries with lower death rates than Australia.

And, Australia is have a huge wave, the most deaths they had in the last two years. Their death rate is increasing daily.

Yes and Australia’s cases per capita is higher than the U.S.

Both case and death per capita are going way up in Australia now.

The “1 million deaths” figure is a scare statistic that needs to be audited by somebody who is not associated with Democrat politics.

Has anyone noticed the countries that fared the best are those that have been universally inoculated with ivermectin - horse meds - for decades? A billion doses in third world countries in 20 years immunized vast populations.
I give you Haiti, home of the worse public health in this hemisphere and the worse overcrowding with no attempt to control anything, 72 deaths.
