| Is it time to stop obsessing over Covid figures? Statistics reveal virus is NOT the biggest killer - with heart disease, dementia and cancer each claiming four times as many lives in an average week last month |

| #15 Over the past month+ the death rate from covid in NE Texas is the highest in the state, and if annualized would amount to 0.2% of the population per year. |

| #13 If I may suggest one of many sites that offers Factually Collected Data on the Covid-19 subject. Example: Average daily deaths in the United States from COVID-19 (August 2021) and other leading causes. 1. Heart Disease = 2,050 2. Cancer = 1,621 3. COVID-19 = 727 4. Accidents (Unintentional Injuries) = 553 5. Stroke = 440 6. Chronic lower respiratory disease = 374 7. Alzheimer Disease = 322 8. Diabetes = 275 9. Other diseases of the respiratory system = 180 10. Renal failure = 144 11. Suicide = 126 In July 2021 before the D Variant hit, and the already VAX'd found NO LONGER SAFE, Covid-19 was 8th on the list for US deaths. |

| #12 #3 XYX I noticed that also. So many are shutting down. No TV, no news media. Going back to the old days free of such distractions. The Amish had it right all along. |

| #10 Masks are useless - until they're mandatory. Distancing & lockdowns are needed to "flatten the curve" so we can get the vaccine - until they're permanent, regardless of the shape of the curve. The vaccine will get us back to normal - except when new variants emerge. Which they will, inevitably and ad infinitum. The goal isn't to serve or support the public. It's to enable the Left's agenda: suppression and destruction of a self-standing middle class and rule of law, and their replacement with UBI, cultural Marxism and the complete domination by the Woke socialist + Big Tech oligarchy. "COVID is God's gift to the Left" |

| #8 Soon new fashion lines with air conditioning(they had these for surgeons when the Aids started) for spring shows; |

| #7 #6 The new normal. I don't believe most people realize this will last many years or become permanent. The serous mental and physical issues will be costly. Industrial revolution is in its death throes as I might venture to say and humankind. In comes AI to save the day or so we will think. Work fewer hours, more vacation time as when they introduced computers. |

| #6 Keeping in mind that this is the mostest worstest emergency that ever happened and all hospitals everywhere are at the breaking point...but they are firing staff who do not want to be vaccinated. Inasmuch as nothing so momentous and horrible beyond description has ever taken place and everybody, I say EVERYBODY must be vaccinated and have their papers at all times...Afghan refugees are being 'offered' but not required to take the vaccine. Let's not forget the border crossing individuals who are being released all over the country, you know, Sneezy and Feverish. Given that we have a situation so black and dire that this PANDEMIC must be relentlessly promoted and a cure so wonderful it must be mandated, we simply have to face the fact that things will never improve. Since the Def-Con meter is now irreparably destroyed and they had to release the guy in DC who runs down the street screaming run for your lives, we need to immediately go back and do all the things that didn't work in the first place, taking solace in the immense cost and lives forever ruined. Whatever you do, ignore potentially important information about age, weight/obesity, and multiple co-morbidities. The Hell with all of that, concentrate and the straight dope, go where the big numbers are no matter what gymnastics you have to perform to get there. |
