    The Mask Mandates Did Nothing. Will Any Lessons Be Learned?

    1,100,000 Americans died from COVID, many because of idiocy.

    --bks

    You're an idiot. 1.1 million didn't die because of not adhering to distancing OR mask use. There's no way of telling who did or didn't, so your premise is shit.

    MANY people died who DID adhere to guidelines and MANY died having been "vaccinated".

    And to correct your use of words... no... moron... more Americans died WITH Covid, then FROM it.

    Covid did not kill the healthy. I never got Covid and I was never "vaccinated" (THANK GOD!) and I only wore a mask where it was mandated.

    Many died without even HAVING Covid, but were counted as dying from Covid. Some had colds, some had the flu.

    WHERE did all the colds and flu go while the pLandemic was going on. They never went away. Those who died with either, were counted as dying with/from Covid, so your 1.1 million is a fucking farce.

    The dishonesty of the Democrat is astounding.

    Your 1.1 million stat is a joke, PROVING that most died WITH Covid, not from it, and many with other "Covid-like" symptoms, which were counted AS having Covid.

    That's how hospitals and clinics stayed in business... count a patient as having Covid, EARN money from the government.

    Plus, the vaccine HELPED kill off more people that would have otherwise, lived.

    "Finding That Most People Dying From COVID-19 Are Vaccinated" - Reuters

    "Statistics that show the majority of deaths from COVID-19 ARE AMONG VACCINATED PEOPLE reflect the fact most people are vaccinated..."

    LOL... and STILL died.

    "Why Do Vaccinated People Represent Most Covid-19 Deaths Right Now?"

    The share of COVID-19 deaths among those who are vaccinated has risen. In fall 2021, about 3 in 10 adults dying of COVID-19 were vaccinated or boosted. But by January 2022, as we showed in an analysis posted on the Peterson-KFF Health System Tracker, about 4 in 10 deaths were vaccinated or boosted. By April 2022, the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data show that about 6 in 10 adults dying of COVID-19 were vaccinated or boosted, and that's remained true through at least August 2022 (the most recent month of data).

    New Research Shows CDC Exaggerated The Evidence For Masks To Fight ...

    https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2023/2/8/23591132/cdc-exaggerated- evidence-supporting-mask-mandates-column-jacob-sullum

    8 Feb 2023 - The authors suggest several possible explanations for these results, including "poor study design," inconsistent or improper mask use, "self-contamination of the mask by hands," "saturation of masks with saliva" and increased risk-taking based on "an exaggerated sense of security."

    Holier-than-thou LIBERAL Canadians, think they're soooo superior when it comes to slavery, because they "ended" it (not really) a mere 30 years earlier.

    Canada "ended" slavery a mere 30 years before Lincoln wrote the "Emancipation Proclamation".

    HOW does that make Canada ANY "better" or different? It doesn't.
