This is about the latest hoax perpetrated on not only the US, but the entire world- it's 8700 words, with a couple of references to articles (and comments on articles) reaching 31,000 words- the opening of this article is as honest as the day is long. The whole of the article presents both sides of the argument- make your own decision as to veracity. I'm including a couple of the comments after the article for your entertainment.
comment: Does COVID-19 even exist? At least does it exist as something more than a harmless or nearly harmless cold virus? Is there really a surge of respiratory disease all around the world? How do we know any of those things are true except by taking known liars in government and media at their word? I don’t believe them. These are, after all, the same individuals who tell me there is no such thing as race but that all black failures are caused by white racism, that pathological individuals magically switch genders on their own say-so, that a projected increase of 2C will make the planet uninhabitable, that Joe Biden was legitimately elected, etc. ad nauseam. In short, those who tell me COVID-19 is real and a deadly disease lie about everything and I don’t believe about anything.
comment: The US strategy seems to be retarded superficial locked downs when the hospitals are full, open up when the patients leave.
This is herd immunity strategy 1000%.
But then mutations happen, now what? Vaccines become useless. The virus may become seasonal like the flu.
Even if covid 19 is the same deadliness as the flu like the retards claimed. But it spreads to every damn person within breathing distance. 60k deaths per year from the flu. with how contagious covid is we should expect few hundred thousands death every year.
So many retards.
comment: This hypothesis as to the origins of the virus as a bio weapon is probably correct, as far as it goes. But Ron is missing the bigger picture. China was not the sole target. The target was the entire world. The virus was weaponized by scientific fraud, fake statistics, and endless propaganda to perform a controlled demolition of the world economy and of civil society. The goal is The Great Reset proclaimed by the World Economic Forum. It amounts to a power grab by globalist oligarchs who are establishing a technologically enforced global neofeudalism. The vaccines may or may not be genocidal but the vaccine passports are obviously going to evolve into a China-style global social credit system. All of your rights are belong to us.
comment: Even counting “excess deaths from all causes” is somewhat meaningless, since the LOCKDOWNS in of themselves are somewhat dangerous and unpredictable. Deaths from such things as drug overdoses, poor nutrition, suicide, not getting enough exercise, not going out in the sun. People not getting their cancer treatments, or in fear of going to the doctor or hospital. Homicide via BLM riots or lack of police. Excess nursing home deaths from the granny killer governors. People losing hope from losing jobs. The weird disappearance of the “flu season”. We have no idea at this point the damaging effects of the upheaval of society has had on “excess deaths”. In short, how many “excess deaths” were due to COVID and how many were due to “government over reach” is a difficult question to answer. So gauging the effects of COVID via “excess deaths” is a poor indicator and would only have meaning if society were allowed to function in a “normal” manner.
The article is 8700 words. Don't hurt yourselves gaining information.
Opening:
Winston Churchill famously observed that in wartime the truth must be surrounded by a bodyguard of lies. Many of my own long and most controversial articles have followed a somewhat analogous presentation, with the opening sections that sometimes run hundreds of words or longer often being rather innocuous or even somewhat off-topic. These are intended to serve as a bland or sugar-coated introduction to the far more dangerous material that then follows, which might otherwise tend to alarm and deter the casual reader if introduced too quickly.
Although I think this approach has its benefits, there are disadvantages as well. An unknown number of casual or busy readers may abandon the piece at that early stage, finding it too uninteresting to continue through to the more explosive elements. So there is probably value in extracting and highlighting some of the latter for a different sort of audience, and this may be especially true with regard to the current Covid-19 outbreak in America, which recently marked its first anniversary.
snip
From the very beginning, “Covid Skeptics” have fiercely disputed such official totals. They have noted the considerable confusion between “dying from Covid-19” and “dying with Covid-19,” plausibly arguing that such postmortem diagnoses are often ambiguous, with many deaths of infected individuals having primarily been due to other factors. But it also seems quite likely that many Covid-19 deaths may not have been officially recorded as such. Given such problems of both over-counting and under-counting, the most reliable metric would be the total number of “excess deaths,” those above and beyond the normal figure for a given period. But considering these much more solid estimates for the actual death toll suffered during our current epidemic actually reveals a picture far worse than those official numbers.
Two months ago a large team of nearly a dozen Wall Street Journal reporters published a 2,000 word article entitled “The Covid-19 Death Toll Is Even Worse Than It Looks” which carefully analyzed the worldwide losses, finding that the CDC figures for total deaths during the first 11 months of 2020 suggested some grim conclusions:

In the U.S. alone, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data show more than 475,000 excess deaths through early December, a time frame that also included about 281,000 deaths linked to Covid-19, according to Johns Hopkins University.
The pandemic led U.S. deaths to climb at least 10% last year. Typically U.S. deaths grow about 1.6% a year as the population grows and ages.
