According to Wikipedia there have been between 16m and 28m excess deaths worldwide due to Covid 19. That's around the population of Australia. If that's not a catastrophe I'm not sure what is. Alternatively we must continue to inject bleach and horse wormer and ignore the doctors.

Only as low as they are permitted to go. And they had permission from the political class and the slavish voters.

From my observation the COVID fiasco did one thing if nothing else. It clearly showed the line between those who can think & those who think they can think !
I for one find it rather simple-minded of people who always do nothing but criticise bitterly to condemn those who, when faced with a very serious community health scenario at least do something to prevent worse. We have absolutely no information if the measures taken worked or didn't or made things worse. And, if there is it'll be hotly disputed no matter what the evidence is.
In general, people who do nothing are worse than any decease.

Well line up for your booster Taswegian but don't overlook the fact that anyone who fell off a cliff or died in a car crash or any other accident, or who had various co-morbidities including cancer, was classed a a "covid death" in many countries - especially the US where box-ticking hospitals and medicos received big subsidies. Anything to push the message that the vaccines were "perfectly safe and effective". Give me ivermectin any day, it actually does have a very long safe record, unlike the covid jabs!

I meant to add "if they tested positive for covid" after any accidental death or death from other causes, it was classed as a covid death!
