    Yet you can't provide any resource pointing to verifiable mass deaths and/or significant side effects.

    A random guy with a cell phone videoing a person who is on the ground and then saying he can "guarantee he had the vaccine" is not proof of anything.

    The collapse of the woman in Austria was not due to the vaccine according to official reports. There are stories saying she was recently vaccinated (but never says the date) as shown on Instagram (yet never show the Instagram post). The only picture shown in any of the stories showing her being 'recently' vaccinated, isn't even a picture of her.

    I doubt you will be able to deprogram him.

    She's one dumb blonde, and her cult following will believe her half truth, without thinking logically about anything spewing from her mouth.



    She gives them a false sense of security making them believe it's safe to go around socializing, bar hopping, on a plane or cruise, to work, a hospital, or a doctor around a bunch of unvaccinated fools without masks.



    The dangers of overlooking Covid-19 in Africa

    The reason for the underreporting and lack of testing is the same: Limited healthcare resources. Most African countries lack basic healthcare infrastructures, such as hospitals or even clinics outside cities, making Covid-19 tests and diagnoses harder to come by.

    Age could also play a factor.

    Compared to Europe’s median age of 43 and the US’s of 38, the median age in African countries is 19.7, which likely helped avoid larger outbreaks.

    Has it even been officially determined how this virus came about? Are they still going with the Wuhan market, or at this point is that basically the equivalent of avoiding talking about sex by telling your kid a stork dropped him off in front of the house?

    Lab leak seems more likely to me. We'll never get a smoking gun but if the two options are natural origin or lab leak, one seems far more likely than the other. WaPo reporter Josh Rogin does good reporting on covid origins.

    The new variant might be here already.

    It's causing irregular heart rythm, fluid on lungs, hypoxic, full blown covid and then testing negative on the top accurate machine and this is on a 3 shot vaccinated person.

    I have no doubt the new variant is here already. Globalization is the best friend of contagious diseases.

    There already was an Alpha variant. Unfortunately viruses have a big evolutionary advantage that they are mutating constantly. It is looking likely that COVID will be endemic.

    You can’t talk about China because there’s too much Chinese money invested in America
    Hey you can hardly even criticize that country here without some of their professional trolls worldwide popping up
    I mean ask yourself if you’ve seen some of these posters ever talk about the Rockets and even seen them in the GARM

    For shutdowns I don't think we will see the type of shutdowns like we did in Spring of 2020, not unless a new variant shows up that is much more lethal. In addition to having to balance the economy and that it will be politically untenable to maintain such a shutdown we are in a far different place than we were in 2020 fighting the disease. We have not only vaccines but now multiple treatments that appear to work. The challenge is getting people to acknowledge that this disease is real and a threat, getting vaccinated and maintaining enough resources in hospitals to deal with surges.

    They don’t pick it up because it will destroy their narrative. Just like posters in here will not acknowledging more than a few people dropping dead and a lot of them were healthy athletes at their peaks.

    These posters calling people like me ignorant, mouth breather, anti-science are truly not believing in what they are spewing. If you are so confident about your so-called science, you will not dismissing these deaths and attacking people for just simply asking why and needing an explanation.

    Nobody will believe in your junk science if all you want to do is silencing and bullying people into submission. I know there are admirers of the CCP model but we are living in America and not in the lands of WinnieTheFlu.

    Unless that person got into a car after receiving his vaccines and later on crashed the damn car because of a heart attack (true story with video).

    As true of a story (with video) of the "vaccinated" Christien Erickson collapsing on the soccer field when he had never been vaccinated?

    1/31/2020 - Trump travel ban for 6 countries from Africa. I don't think anyone else ban travel from Africa. Why - there was no known covid cases in Africa at the time.

    11/26/2021 - Biden ban travel for 7 countries from Africa. More than 30 countries have ban travel from South Africa and other countries from Africa due to the new variant.

    Agree to it or not, Biden and other world leaders ban travels from Africa due to a new variant of major concern. Trump ban was not based on covid. He has a prior history of trying to ban Muslim, so yes, he's rightfully called out as racist / xenophobic by some.
