> COVID is in effect a bad flu... No, it’s not. It is literally a different disease and the impact is well outsized relative to the flu. > "5 million deaths" 5 million deaths FROM covid or WITH COVID? > Hint: You don't know because we don't know... those numbers are mixed, conflated and confused. This “but numbers are inflated” stuff is FUD. There is zero evidence that the real impact of COVID is lower than the reported numbers. (If you have any, please do share.) Excess deaths indicate that the official COVID death tallies are actually significant undercounting. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-00104-8 https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-00104-8 It’s utterly crazy that people can legitimately hold the view that COVID is no worse than the flu in the face of mass cremations happening in India or refrigerator trucks filled with corpses outside New York hospitals. This doesn’t happen in a typical flu season. > That's why kids who are statistically more likely to die tripping on a sidewalk This seems like an easy claim for you to provide a citation for. Where is it? I’m totally on board with the fact that the risk to children of COVID is very low. But I’m relatively certain that sidewalks being more deadly is bullshit. > fear, misinformation, lies and the Holy Religion of The Vaccine. This coming from someone spreading misinformation. Why do you expect people to engage in real discussion with you when you’re spreading misinformation? Your righteous outrage is unjustified when you’re as guilty of lying to yourself as those you’re arguing with.
