And that COVID and the flu were about the same in mortality. This was a couple of months ago.

I know COVID can screw up your memory, but this is madness. And it’s everywhere.

Deaths from flu have gone down as Covid has replaced it.

Also, Nurses may or may not know WTF they're talking about.

their fortunes and any security being educated brought them in their past lives. Trumpkakistan will have no need for those poor voters. So they will die of any one of a thousand things and will never make it to Medicare age or social security. Or they will be deported under some law. Some will voluntarily leave the country (just like in Russia) and immigrate somewhere else. All in all elections won't matter (just like in Russia).

However, they still need to get rid of all the liberals, perverts (in their theology), and other undesirables in the current power structure they wish to get rid of.
But like Dear Ol' Ayn; Nationalists, Religious Hard-Liners, and Libertarian Capitalists have an Underwear Gnome understanding of strategizing...they will design an intricate plan where everything will fall into place - and then "Profit".
When it comes to the actual process that will have to happen after everything falls into place to make the profit (or prophecy) occur, that's when they start fighting each other over who is going to be in charge of the process and/or who's genius is the purist when it comes to leading them through the process.

But still, the ultimate goal for them is to get their elites in charge and get rid of the excess moocher population. Make a lean, mean, profitable country for them to carve their fiefdoms out of.

I'm sure vaccination is beneficial (I am up to date on my shots) but this is not timely information.

An ABC News analysis of federal data found that on average, the death rates in states that voted for Trump were more than 38% higher than in states that voted for Biden, post widespread vaccine availability.

Vaccines are 20 times better at saving people with covid as no vaccines. And found in Texas no less. Plus it will teach people to be Texas proud of science.

Good luck. The libruls are evil devils and the GQP walks on water. They will come up with 1,001 reasons why Covid is not a serious issue and is blown out of proportion by the left wing media. They are too stupid to live but they manage to since the other states pay for their problems as well as the rest of the US. Freeloading hypocrites!
