Thank u brandon
It’s an acceptable level of death Jack
It’s harm reduction Jack! (by doing millions of deaths in harm)
Still got my fingers crossed that he gets it and croaks
Best time imo would be in about 10-12 months, hoisting the Democrats by their own petard on both covid AND backing this ancient ghoul with no reasonable backup plan in case of death and not enough time before the election to implement one.
Please I never ask you for anything…
I’ve already predicted he dies, Hillary wins dem nomination, and then loses to Trump again.

There should have been a massive project to install air filtration devices everywhere. I saw a study posted on here that showed basic off the shelf units were effective. It would’ve cost less than all the subsidies that were handed out to businesses. It could’ve made tracking viable as a means to ending the pandemic. Everything was bet on the success of the pharma industry, which made them a lot of money but also turned out to be totally insufficient.
Well yeah but that would mean that the government would have to do something, and that’s impossible. We can only engage in
griftsprivate-public partnerships.But they could’ve done both! Just funnel a bunch of money to retrofit buildings and the very same grifters could’ve whet their beaks. It was a huge missed opportunity
Ahh but why not cut out the middleman, capitalism is efficient! /s For real though, I feel like they are doing everything they can to brainwash people into not noticing anything is different. No masking means no visual and tactile reminder that things are different. No added ventilation or air filters means no change in routine… If there’s nothing different, then people won’t be asking what the government needs to do to bring things back to normal. You’re totally right though, the government should take simple, effective measures like this to protect people and reduce unnecessary disability and death.
Beyond the death, let’s not forget also the ton of people that either got long COVID or will get it eventually
Oh absolutely, only phrased it this way because it’s
what fucking monstrosity is that
It is a representation of our nation’s status every 9/11 😢
And that’s without us really keeping track of it. Excess deaths should be higher than they are for 2023, but they readjusted how they calculate it to include 2020’s data.
Yeah. Even when reporting was at its highest, there were all the cases that weren’t being tested because many people don’t have access to healthcare.
i was wondering what death rates were for unvaccinated people, but this document seems to indicate the chance of death is only slightly higher if unvaccinated. So that’s interesting. I thought the disparity would still be big.
Edit: looks like the disparity is now with hospitalizations more than death

at this point it’s a difference between natural immunity and vaccine-induced immunity. almost nobody is getting it for the first time, so almost everyone has some natural immunity. plus, the newer strains are supposedly less acutely harmful than initial strains
also, reporting methods are only getting worse. with a shortage of covid tests, there are less confirmed cases, so many covid deaths are reported as “pneumonia”
I didn’t go through that document, but there’s also the question of what it means to be vaccinated. Like if you got vaccinated in 2021 that’s probably not doing a whole lot for you now. The graph at the top is comparing unvaccinated to at least one booster shot. I got my first booster at the end of 2021, and I know some people got it earlier in the fall. That’s probably not doing a whole lot now. Less and less people have getting boosters afaik.
I’d love to get another, but my insurance won’t cover it. It has been 11 months and I still can’t get another, fuck
