Goodness. Anyone else get the impression, that the worldwide response to covid has been overkill?

We have treated the virus as if it is the return of the Bubonic plague from medieval Europe. And now, the less serious Delta variant is being treated as if it is the return of the plague or return of smallpox.

At what point do we realize, that viruses and bacteria are out there, and will always be out there, but that life can’t come to a complete halt because of a virus? At what point do our leaders recognize, that there is a cost/benefit to everything in life, and that the response to covid has had some serious negative consequences to all of us?

It’s a power grab I believe.
Worldwide.

They don’t care how many it kills and how many millions more will suffer.

Assume our leaders our heartless and evil to the core.

They act like it don’t they?

“At what point do we realize, that viruses and bacteria are out there, and will always be out there, but that life can’t come to a complete halt because of a virus?”

I and others realized that 16 months ago when this scam was launched. Since then I’ve been waiting for enough people to shake off their mantle of manufactured hysteria
and think critically about this situation for even a few seconds. Any who can manage to do that will come to the same conclusion.

At the time of the founding fathers and through all of history there were dozens if not hundreds of dread diseases all around us all the time, with no vaccines for any of them. Nobody hid under their beds waiting in vain for them all to go away.

Rational people know that living on earth carries some risks. If one spends one’s life hiding from them and fretting over them, what kind of life is that?

Ignore the media and the agenda, and go about your life.

👍Absolute overkill. Our leaders are either too stupid to realize the harm or they have some other agenda for continuing these policies.

Exactly.

You DON’T lock down, or even jab, your way out of a pandemic....especially the PlanDEMic version.

The regime KNOWS that the lockdowns, masks and covid protein producing injections are ridiculous.
The entire fallout now is an exercise in controlling people.
It’s time to stop listening to these overseers.
They do NOT have our best interests in mind.
And kids wearing masks is just going to create a disease cesspool.
They don’t even like to wash their hands.
Their masks will have every bacteria, virus and fungus you can think of growing on the masks.

The problem is that “our leaders” want to cement some type of legacy that they brought Covid to its knees, having fully vanquished it. They will then be considered as heroes by future generations. So it will be nigh impossible for them to admit that they cannot do that - it will mean they have to admit scientific defeat. Being delusional lefties/liberals, that is unacceptable.

We’ve had generations of people not really having to ask these kinds of questions. The fear porn has been strong in the UK. I have relatives there that are older, they’re convinced it’s a terrible idea to leave the house.

Australia seems even worse. Now they’re telling people, whom are in extreme lockdowns, that this “might last a lot longer than expected”....and many will accept it.

At what point do you wake up and realize that your freedoms have been TAKEN and now there’s no guarantee as to when you might get them back? That should be your “no deal” moment. Otherwise you’re accepting open ended tyranny and what basis do you have that it will be temporary? We know how government behaves.

Now the lowering the PCR test cycles so we’ll see fewer false positives. Now we learn that the COVID test itself can’t differentiate between COVID and the flu. You must test for the flu specifically, how many know this?

Yes, there’s a VIRUS called COVID-19. It mainly attacks old people with other problems, add it to the list of similar. The rest of us should just go back to living our lives and attain herd immunity. If we’d done this from the beginning, while keeping older folks protected, we’d be there already. I’d argue we never needed a vaccine. It isn’t Ebola.

I’m already looking at this as having lived through one of the greatest fabrications in history.

Or they know something they don’t want to tell us. Either way we are screwed. I think it’s BS but I am often wrong.
