These facts are harsh. It was, and still is a WAR. There is no way around that.

Lol, if this virus was designed to kill, all the scientists did a terrible job and should be fired.

1. Most viruses have the ability to reinfect people. Few viruses are one-and-done operations.
2. This is what they say.
3. This is laughably false. The death rate for Delta was the same as Alpha and same as the wild-type virus, at a whopping 0.3%. You are off by a factor of 200x.
4. Maybe in some cases, and in other cases the cause. No studies have shown it reduced all-cause mortality. In fact, there is a signal it increases your odds of dying from CVD.
6. They're basically useless now.

This virus is not a war, stop being so melodramatic. It is for most people, an easier virus to handle than the common cold virus. Only <5% seem to have severe reactions to it, which mirrors allergic type responses.

Fortunately he has a job amendable to telework; however, I do wonder when/if his lungs will recover. They aren't calling it Long Covid for him, just that he has lung and heart damage from the initial event.
How would you even know? I’m sure you’re still working remotely and milking the pandemic for everything you can, right?

Could you please provide a source for these claims? Particularly the bolded.

"Long COVID", while not really defined, usually means sequelae following COVID, with no apparent underlining physical cause. I.e CFS, headaches, tinnitus, etc while biomarkers return normal or no underlying cause can be pinpointed.

For a journalist to say this principal died of "long COVID", I will need UCOD on their death certificate, and explanation of what their "long COVID" entailed, for me to believe this. Me thinks this is just someone who said he had headaches after COVID and died of a stroke, which some irresponsible journalist attributed to "long COVID" to spread fear. Wouldn't be the first time. They're running out of ammunition since just about everyone has had COVID, and just about everyone who has had it was fine, so they continue to pump out this "long COVID" mysticism.
Yeah exactly. What I have is technically long Covid. I have had continuous issues with diarrhea ever since Covid and problems with no taste still. I don’t think this was a case of it since if I was they’d have actually been more specific

Did you take antibiotics during your COVID infection? The GI problems at least could be due to that (antibiotics disrupt the gut biome). The taste issues could legitimately be lingering issues of "long COVID". Curious, how long this has been going on? In the studies, ageusia (loss of taste) seems to restore within a few months after COVID for the vast majority of people.

There have been countless articles taken down written by doctors who speak out against the media, Fauci, Gates, WHO, and other government controled agencies who have been pushing vaccines.

When the inventor of the mRNA Vaccine comes right out and Says; 'These Vaccines are not designed to be used on a Regular Basis----they are dangerous; no-one knows the long-term affects!'

The Principal SHORTENED his life by taking to many 'Vaccine Shots/Boosters'...destroyed his health system(s)

...PERIOD~
