Looks like the Media has everyone up in arms again today....Has a lot to do with the fact that fauci will be brought up on charges for false testimony to Congress which is gearing up to be crimes against humanity...not looking good for the old boy.

3 times what previous number? 3 times 20 does not compare to 3 times 200. Same with deaths. Everybody likes to quote what's happening in Israel where the numbers "Skyrocketed" 300% - from 20 to 60 in the whole country.

If true??? Here's an idea, do some research.

ANY reliable source that says the vaccine is killing anyone, much less "left and right?"

And don't give VAERS stats because as we all know, correlation does not prove causation.

Your sarcasm detector is broken...

That’s an analogy. If you don’t care about the origin of the chicken pox, why would you care about the origin of any other issue that has affected all of us?

The 3,300,000 deaths were based on a population of 330,000,000. But, since we "know" only a handful of children will die from COVID, the real population that might be affected is 300,000,000. If only slightly more than 20% of that population will ever get Covid then instead of 3,300,000 deaths there will only be slightly more than 600,000.

Since we're already at 609,000 deaths then by your calculation, there will be no more COVID deaths. Now that's something to celebrate!

(Now if only the annoying MSM and CDC and others would stop reporting a 7-day average of 300 deaths per day)

There have been 34,249,031cases is Covid in the US. Basically 10% of the population. So, statistically the death total could double from its current number, if the 20% figure holds true.
Not 3,300,000, not 600,000…
Better check your math!!!!

Are you buying a lottery ticket or just playing with words? Thank you for the your honesty!

But if we use those numbers then we have to accept a death rate of 1.8% (survival rate of 98.2% which I suppose is still "well over 90%")

But more, if we consider that 0-17 year olds account for 30% of the cases but only 350 deaths then that means that 608,000 deaths came from 24M cases for a survival rate of only 97.5% for the rest of us.

If we take the US population at 330M, the CDC percentage of Americans under 18 at 22%, your 20% infection rate, the 34M that have already been infected, the current vaccine acceptance of approximately 60%, and the 2.5% death rate then we would expect about another 175,000 deaths (784,000 overall). So yes, the 3.3M number was far too high and the 600,000 number was too low.

Then back to the post I originally commented on, is it fear mongering to be concerned about the potential for only another 175,000 deaths?

That would be great but fauci is a protected class. It seems the world would want to know how/why this virus was created, released and who is behind this. Who to believe, who to trust?

We baby boomers are very fortunate that when the polio vaccine came out in the 1950s, most of our parents didn't display the type of foolishness that a third of the adult population seems to display today.

No, it is NOT a "FACT". It is a statement from an ignorant person. There was no "false testimony to Congress". Your media is the one that is false.

Yes, Dr. Fauci (notice the proper title and capitalized name for respect) is in a protected class. He is in a class of Saints for his 40 years of hazardous work with diseases, which he studied for the benefit of mankind. Socrates said, "mind and body". Dr. Fauci as a modern American achieved that goal - he was brilliant in College AND a superb athlete. How many here locally that feel free to criticize him have those credentials? And of those, how many have given 40 years of their life to science, mankind, government service? Think about it objectively. Dr. Fauci's critics are really only saying that he is BAD because he did not fall in line and march with the 35% of the US population - those that have been propagandized into a lemming-like trance and following a cult ideology. I feel sorry for this 35%. They "know not what they do"!

Eventually Abraham Lincoln will catch up with them - "you can't fool 35% of the people ALL of the time". Cults come and they go. Soon this one will disappear from history. Legitimate sources of information like the CDC, DR. Fauci, and traditional network TV channels can help those now stricken with overloads of propaganda to see past the cult panderers that are driven by power and money. We live in a confusing and rapidly changing time period. Florida leaders have gone against the 35% to agree with the CDC and recommend vaccines for almost ALL Floridians. The Abraham Lincoln effect is beginning to take hold.

No, there will be a determination about whether or not he made false charges...

Your comment is just as ignorant as the one you're complaining about...
