Why are you insisting upon pointing out facts? Party pooper! ;-)

[rktman]

It was for our own good. Or some such nonesense. Walmart. okay. Voting precincts, not okay. Uh, what?

The National Population was also smaller in 1969 than 2020. That has an effect on the percentages.

This is going to be impossible for some here to accept.

That’s proof that planting tulips in my garden is working. If I hadn’t, it would have been 200% instead of 25. I demand trillions in funding to continue my work.

[skimbell]

Yeah, but when you throw in the “murder hornets” and the “near miss asteroid”-man, we are livin’ right on the edge and we're probably all going to die!

[9YearLurker]

So because we have more people over age 65, or whatever, now, their deaths don’t count?

I absolutely believe they have done horrid things to increase the actual and counted Covid deaths far beyond what was necessary or real.

But the age adjustment argument IMO is unseemly and not too relevant.

The Hong Kong flu lasted two seasons and the second was deadlier.

Let's revisit this story in a year.

[Gay State Conservative]

In the coming months there will be charts,graphs,Excel files issued by Harvard,Columbia,Hopkins,Mayo Clinic,etc with detailed analysis.Age at death,pre existing conditions,nursing home yes/no,etc,etc,etc.

They will be interesting to see.

[CharleysPride]

Yeah, if we didn’t have so many old people, fat people, people with diabetes and hyper-tension, people recovering from cancer and other people who tend to just sick too much, this wouldn’t be a problem.

[G Larry]

We really need to be asking the "experts":

"How many Americans have died from the SEASONAL FLU this year?"

They have no answer.
