Well, heart disease is like the number one cause of death, yet I never known anyone with it, let alone that died from it. I am hardly a recluse, I have known and still know a lot of people.

I have known two people that had cancer, two, yet cancer is also a leading cause of death.

Do you even know what .000001% is? That's 1 person in 10 million.

there are tons and tons and tons and tons and tons of people with mild symptoms or no symptoms who never tested. The real number is going to end up being between 0.1 to 0.5%, probably around 0.26%


and again, take out overweight unhealthy people over 60, the number dips to like 0.000001%...so why can't i do any of the things i love again?

why is our whole life changed and things are shut down and people's livelihoods is sacrificed to something that's barely more than a common cold?


Is this just a government test worldwide to see how much they can terrify and control us?
It has been latched on to by the Demonic party because they know Biden will loose to Trump, so they want to suppress the recover of the economy to use it as a bludgeon against President Trump. This is blatantly obvious and the evidence of that is how the left argues so hard that we must stay shut down and we must wear a mask and all the other draconian measures that have been imposed on us by governors and mayors.

And yes, I believe it is a dry run to see how willing the masses are to forfeit their freedom when faced with fear of the unknown. I've believed this from the beginning, and more and more people are coming to that realization.

Let's not mince words here and call it what it really is....

It's The Control System.

The control system is bigger than just a few governments.

The mortality rate in US is 3.4%

In Italy it was 14%

Facts matter.

its all to defeat him in the election.


this is how i will know im right - when things die down after November election.


Also the cold weather will put a stop to the mobs.


if they were really serious about stopping covid, the Democrat mayors and governors would NOT HAVE ALLOWED the protestors. They made the excuse that they were fighting for the end of racism. But this was clearly not true, as the rioting, looting, arsons, etc clearly did nothing for civil rights.


You see them making excuses, this is a lame coverup for their real agenda which i outlined above.
So there is a small cabal of very powerful people that are behind all this. They knew the route the virus would take and when.

We do know the mortality rate. It's around .1%.

Please turn off ABC news.
Not to mention (admittedly anectodal) evidence of hospitals being so dead that they are laying off staff, including doctors and nurses!!

The mortality rate is the fraction of people who tested positive and died. In the early days the death rate was much higher because pretty much the only people getting tested were people being admitted into the hospital. The vast majority of people don't get sick enough to go to the hospital. Which is why all of these mortality rates are completely useless.
