The US suffered well over 1 million excess deaths as a result of the covid pandemic.
To note, these are not solely covid deaths. These are deaths associated with the effects of the pandemic as well.
This includes direct virus deaths, deaths caused by comorbidities during infection, deaths caused by lack of beds/resources/staff at hospitals, deaths caused by delays in screening, deaths caused by mental health episodes related to the virus, and deaths from increases in substance abuse attributed to the pandemic.
In total, as of 2 days ago, 923,000 deaths can be directly attributed to viral infection. Meaning the remaining 150-200k’ish deaths are side products.
Deaths amoung working age Americans are up 40% from the pre-pandemic era.
Now that we are crossing out of the pandemic phase we can start to look back at the true toll this virus wrought.
Millions around the world have died, not only as a direct result of the virus, but by factors created by both it, and our responses/lack of responses to it. The flaws in our medical systems, already apparent, were thrown into sharp relief by this plague.
Many things should return to normal when this virus abates. Our medical response system cannot be one of those. We really need to work toward bolstering it.

STOP KOSA!
So there’s word going around that Queen Elizabeth is taking Ivermectin because that’s just how the internet community works.
I don’t know why but this theory intrigues me…
Could that be the true key to her immortality?

There are no news (at least on my country) about covid or anything raleted.
Few weeks ago the main stream media was full of covid news, saying dozens of new variants are out yet now for a whole week nothing…
Not a single word of covid only about the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
News Media is strange isn’t it?

You’d think that once it got publicized that COVID can affect the D, it would get people taking it more seriously. Looks like manhood really isn’t appreciated that much. Then again, diet affects many aspects of living, yet many associated problems persist, so maybe not so surprising when thought about.

Safe to ignore.
John Campbell is a once vaguely respected doctor of nursing that had a small niche making videos about hospital practices.
He hit it big recently spreading covid misinformation, including hawking ivermectin and various anti-inflammatory drugs, and insisting that the pandemic deaths are being artificially overreported.
Since then, he has found a much more profitable niche pushing lies, as his channel went from averaging a few hundred views to tens of thousands.

He analysed the data released by Pfizer not so long ago by the demand of a u.s judge.
If you think he’s lying then the whole Pfizer documents are a big lie too.

So the FDA, W.H.O, Pfizer, J&J, BioNTech, and all the other big companys alongside with hundreds of doctors and professionals are lying? And the mainstream media doesn’t even care about it?

If by analyzed you mean read over the publicly available documents that mostly consist of shocking tid bits like…which CVS’s would be the best places to distribute to, how many people needed to be in individual trials, and dry correspondences between officials on the mundanities of IRB protocols.
Or maybe you’re referring to the already publicly known side effects such as temporary heart inflammation, flu like symptoms, and persistent fever.
Calling them “the Pfizer Documents” makes it sound bigger and more impressive than it is. This is not the Panama Papers Mark II. They don’t say anything ground breaking, they’re all publicly available for anyone to read, and the only reason Pfizer fought their release is due to copyright and patent concerns with their product trial methods.

Yet some rando mook on a pony site knows the skinny eh? You’ve got no idea what you’re on about.
Try working in a hospital like me and come back to me on how it’s all a hoax, or that vaccines don’t work.
The only one uninformed here is you, kid.
