Remember when lockdowns were justified by the stupid argument that they are worth it if they save “just one life?”
Yeah, well. The consequences of the lockdown will, in the end, be the early deaths of millions of people, perhaps eclipsing those who died from COVID itself.
If you have been following the story of excess deaths around the world–I have written about the story a few times–you will know that the West is suffering from a dramatic increase in the rate of deaths. Most of those excess deaths are not due to COVID, nor are they COVID-related.
“Excess deaths” are the number of people who died compared to what would be expected

The cure was worse than the disease. So what else is new?

And then there's The Great Undiscussed Issue...Think of the 12M-14M people 65 or older who lived alone during Covid. They were basically issued solitary confinement prison sentences of 2 YEARS. The UN defines 2 WEEKS of solitary confinement as "torture."
Enough said.

I had need of emergency care last March. 6 hours in a waiting room labelled “emergency”. No service, not even queued up. Fortunate it was not immediately life threatening. Returned the next day early, and got slow measured, careful, competent care (operation). It was slow.
One young man in the non emergency room was simply there to get a second opinion. That would have been a waste of resources. The rapidly treated emergencies came in the back door by ambulance…car wrecks, od’s, gsw’s, heart attacks. My interpretation, if you don’t go by bus, writhe and moan in pain, fall out of your chair unconscious on the floor..it’s the only was to get attention. This hospital had plenty of “rooms”, but inadequate staffing left over from Covid.

Fortunately, we were and are retired, and other than the restaurants being closed here for six weeks, we were "locked down" not in the slightest. We didn't stay home, we traveled across the country and visited relatives in Mississippi and Florida, and the only issue was some idiot counties forced their restaurants to shut down.
For people whose companies were thuggish, and friends had this, it was bad. One friend had to fight for months but avoided the mRNA shots.
Eff their "lockdown".

Like justice, treatment delayed is treatment denied.
Death gives no Mulligans.

The left wants you compliant, or dead - preferably dead.

"It's the Clot Shot, Stupid!"
What about all the never-before-seen white ropey blood clots, some extending the length of people's leg?
What about all the people who 'died suddenly' after taking the Clot Shot.... and were diagnosed as 'stroke' or 'heart attack'?
It's hard to cover up the professional athletes who dropped dead on the field after taking the Clot Shot (the Media just ignored them) but what about the millions of others? And not just deaths, but heart attacks, heart valve replacements, and related issues in relatively young people?
The article talks about a shortage of nurses.... how about all the nurses who quit or were fired -in any case were no longer on the job- because they saw what was going on and refused the hospital's demand to take the Clot Shot in order to keep their jobs?
I visit a climate discussion site called WattsUpWithThat. Some of the people who contribute there have a hobby of examining large data sets, looking for patterns. Looking at the WuFlu data early on, one thing that immediately jumped out like a sore thumb was that in places where nearly everyone takes Hydroxychloroquine to ward off Malaria, there was almost NO Covid.
In India, the state of Utter Pradish, which has a population of over 200,000,000 people, ran a very successful program of treating people with Ivermectin, a common, cheap medication that has been in use for a very long time.
Here in the USA, President Trump spoke positively of both Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin. The Media immediately demonized both medications,
Between the 'Authorities' and the Media, it quickly became difficult to obtain or illegal to treat Covid with either Hydroxy or Ivermectin.
The 'Authorities' and the Media instead pushed the Clot Shot, and the uber-expensive and largely ineffective Ivermectin.
Aside from Moderna and Pfizer making obscene amounts of money, my gut feeling is that there is something else -something EVIL- going on.
What it is, I do not know.

I think that comment #7 intended to say Remdesivir, not Ivermectin in the next to last paragraph. Otherwise, the comments are correct. my opinion,of course.
