Eating junk foods 24-7, not taking quality supplements and not exercising is contributing to weak immune systems and co-morbidities that,in conjunction with Covid, are killing most that contract Covid.


But do you EVER hear Fauci EVER talk about eating clean, exercising or taking quality supplements?


No, you do not. The only thing we get from govt medical experts is wear a mask, stay inside and get a shot. That is it!


Not only do they push the shot, but in some places you are rewarded for getting the shot with....donuts or other junk foods!


This is why so many of us REALLY question the intentions of the "experts" because it does not appear they see much value in healthy habits that stave off Covid and other killers.

Please post your link to percent of Spanish Flu deaths that were SOLELY Spanish Flu. Don't have it, do ya?
It really doesn't matter because COVID is an opportunistic virus much like HIV. Deniers who claim COVID only killed 6% of the recorded victims are going to need to realize that by that same (lack of) logic...HIV never killed a single person.

So all those people who they "claim" died of AIDS actually died of something else.

I don't really see the point in comparing 1918 pandemic to Covid. Circumstances are far too different and we have a much, much higher population now.

No, but I'm sure if he did you'd be popping off that as an expert in infectious disease he should stay in his lane and leave dispensing that kind of advice to nutritionists and fitness gurus.

It's shock and fear news to keep your anxiety up about this killer virus we have.

Come on, the 1918 flu killed mostly young, healthy people. COVID has mostly killed very elderly/frail people who were on their way out already. With exceptions of course.

Terrible comparison.

Well now Fauci is the voice of HHS, CDC and FDA it seems.
Any one of those agencies could easily have told people last year about getting healthy.
But none did.

And when the breakdown of deaths was presented it showed that 85% of those that died were overweight/obese.

That is a huge, scary number and government said NOTHING.

Well actually they did at the beginning of last year. They said that smokers were all at high risk of getting covid and dying.
But that didn't happen and they haven't spoken about it since.

Government medical experts have called obesity an epidemic for as long as I can remember. Addressing it now is like telling people facing a hurricane that they should make more money so that they can reinforce the the framing of their house.

I say the same about people without the IQ to keep up with our complex world and hold down an engineering job but somehow people still cry about manufacturing jobs moving overseas. To each his own. You say the unhealthy deserve to die. I will agree with you if you own up to other weaknesses.
