Covid ranges from nothing (”asymptomatic”) to a cold to the flu.

But they will not admit that, because that will help expose all the death protocols that killed Americans to fake the “pandemic”.

Vaccines have never been a cure.

EEGator wrote: “Originally it was stated that it would prevent one from becoming ill. It was a blatant lie and you know it.”

There has never been a vaccine that was 100% effective in preventing illness.

EEGator wrote: “Vaccines are supposed to undergo long term testing, of at least 5 years, prior to full approval.”

There is nothing in law that requires five years of testing. The only requirements are that certain steps must be completed. The COVID vaccines went through all those steps. The difference was, some steps were conducted in parallel rather than sequentually to save time. But, you knew that.

EEGator wrote: “What’s the average timeline from beginning to fully approved vaccines in the history of the FDA?”

Time isn’t a requirement, the specific steps to be performed in testing are the requirements.

How do you explain the difference in deaths now vs. then?

Some would say "bookkeeping". Those individuals would have a point, given that all other flu-related deaths disappeared from the planet for a long time after COVID-19 became a thing.

Was the initially released virus more dangerous than what it has mutated to now? Seems like a reasonable assumption. Did we ever get around to punishing those countries, organizations, and individuals for developing and foisting the virus on the planet? Not even close! Bats in the Wuhan food markets my ass!

My very smart MD told me I didn’t need a vax. He knows I’ve been taking one gram of C plus other supplements, every morning for decades. Great immune system.

In the last 15 years, I had one cold, treated with drug store cough medicine and ChlorTrimeton for symptoms.

Do you believe today’s virus variants are the same as those in 2019/2020? Are they more or less lethal? Are they more or less infectuous?

Several physicians published their successful protocols for treating what the medical regime mischaracterized as a 'novel virus' none of us had ever encountered before. Many people already had sufficient immunity from similar flu viruses to avoid getting ill at all, while others needed the traditional flu treatments denied them during the 'scamdemic'.

Some do not want to accept that assumption because it interfers with their favorite COVID narrative that the virus was never lethal or infectuous.

While there is mounting evidence for gain of function experimentation be the source for the virus, it’s still not enough to justify some types of retaliation. And, by all accounts, if Wuhan was the source, releasing the virus had a huge impact upon China. Often overlooked about biological weapons is they have a tendency to catch those that launch the attack in the backblast. IOW, they can be more dangerous to attacker than the defender.

Except for the fact that tests could differentiate between the flu and COVID. As soon as COVID tests were available, a positive COVID test was required for diagnosis.

You are mistaken.

I’m a never vaxxed long hauler.

Just a few months before COVID hit, I spent 2 week trekking across Italy. I was in excellent shape.

Post-COVID, I am now dealing with COPD, POTS, and life-threatening novel seizures that interrupt my parasympathetic nervous system causing my autonomic functions (most especially, breathing) to cease. I’ll trade places with you to withstand just one of those, while you are lying on the floor, paralyzed and suffocating, only
a few seconds to gasp for air before your brain seizes again, for minutes on end. Then, and only then, can you claim COVID was no big deal. But you’ll have to wait about 24 hours because that is how long the seizures scramble your brains and garble your speech. Then, when you do, I can claim it’s just a cold and get over it.

From a general practioner once a year to a cardiologist, neurologist, endocrinologist, and pulmonologist, my roster of doctors, visits, tests, and hospital stays is now bleeding me dry. I’m on 8 meds a day just to function.

But at least I can function. I met a 30 year old aerobics instructor at the pulmonologist who was already hauling around an oxygen tank and had been hospitalized 27 times.

So no, for some of us, it was not bull. You know what is bull? Getting gaslit by the medical industry and randoms on the internet who think they know better.

It was a propaganda opportunity used to institute the most elaborate voter fraud campaign in history and to make billions of dollars off of a deadly and useless new “vaccine” technology

It was also used to inflict a mass clinical trial of the mRNA technology...people had to literally scared to death in order to obtain a sufficient "sample".

Yeah. I had it. So did my wife. In fact, my whole family. It was like a mild case of the flu.

The propaganda induced hysteria certainly suited the woke agenda though. It helped get Joe Biden in the White House.

And, by all accounts, if Wuhan was the source, releasing the virus had a huge impact upon China.

China could lose 50,000,000 people and not blink. In fact, I bet the Chinese government would love to see that happen with their older population.

The release was in October 2019. It was hidden from most on the planet. Americans were exposed before the end of 2019, with many exhibiting symptoms that would later be associated to COVID-19. But those individuals were called liars when stating they caught COVID-19 in 2019 because it didn't come to the US until 2020. Also another lie.

With so much deception and lies, why are you so willing to believe what our government and the worldwide medical groups are telling us?

Liar. The PCR test was not an actual medical diagnostic test but was a lab tool misappropriated for the scamdemic. The inventor of the PCR, Kary Mullis, said it could not diagnose any disease (he also said Fauci was a failure as a scientist and a fraud in general before his death in 2019). The PCR did not use the 'Covid' virus as it's reference but instead detected the presence of a 'related corona virus' according to the CDC. This, after the CDC said the 'Covid' virus was novel and unlike any other. The PCR test was a sham and was used to force lockdowns and subject people to isolation and (mis)treatment with 'remdesivir' and 'midazolam'.

My lovely wife the RN for critical care folks said a while back that her facility was treating COVID as they do Flu. All the sky-is-falling protocols have ended.

So, why do you trust people like Stew Peters, Alex Jones, etc., to tell you the truth?

While that may be the case, there are some of us who were greatly impacted by Covid, like me. That blasted thing, and the development of Long Covid, completely destroyed my life. So before everyone starts saying, “see, told ya so!” just remember that some of us got Covid, got really sick, and haven’t been the same since.

There are other tests besided the PCR.

Besides there is no record of Kary Mullis saying the PCR test could not detect COVID. After all, he died in 2019 prior to the emergence of the virus. The best records indicate Mullis did make a similar statement that PCR wasn’t useful for detecting HIV back in 1997 when Mullis was a HIV/AIDS denier. His point was, if you ran the PCR test enough times you might detect something. However, the PCR tests used for diagnosing COVID are not run to extreme levels.

Here’s a fact check:

Declaring that COVID is “no longer the emergency that it once was, and its health impacts increasingly resemble those of other respiratory viral illnesses,” the new guidance says COVID’s threat is now “more similar to that of other common respiratory viruses,”

Just like it always was.
