This isn't as black and white or either/or as you say. We need to determine the actual risk of COVID, not what the media says, not what the government says but what is the real risk. We need to sort out the PCR tests and get some real numbers. Show me the science and I'm all in. Everything they are doing regarding COVID is unscientific. All these out of proportion measures for a virus with a survivability of 99%. Lets put all this in a little perspective. Do we need to start doing the same with the flu? What happened to the flu?
If the lockdowns work why do we keep needing them. If six feet works why the masks, if masks work why the six feet. If the vaccine works why do you still need to mask and distance. You need the second vaccine dose after 21 days oh no wait now you don't. You can't mix first and second shots from different manufacturers oh wait now you can. Asymptomatic spread is not real, oh wait now it is. You don't need to wear masks oh wait now you need two. Stop the insanity.
If you have to be constantly told there is a pandemic there isn't one. If you have to be tested to find out if you have the virus something is up. Without the media most of us would not know that anything was wrong. For everyone one nurse in a family that talks about full hospitals and the world coming to an end there are 5 other nurses out there talking about empty beds or doing tick tok dance videos. Were any of the emergency hospitals used?
Everyone talks about the responsibly to do no harm to others as an excuse for the COVID measures. What about the suicides, overdoses, people dead do to lack of medical care or cancelled surgeries, missed cancer treatments and diagnosis. Where does their harm fit into this. Is the responsibility to do no harm to them less than others? Have more people died from these things than COVID? There is an argument for that.
I know people have lost loved ones and that's a tragedy but it's not the catastrophe the government would have us believe.
Covid is real but this is getting out of hand. Protect the vulnerable and let this thing run its course. As far a due diligence goes, if you're sick, stay home.
