I can't see what the issue is! Covid 19 often comes with lung infections/inflamation.

This author obviously has no medical expertise, and tries to question those with medical expertise with numbers and assumptions!, Covid 19 has killed more folk across the globe than two world wars. But this miserable excuse for a human being could give a rats!

He hasn't made a cogent case, but has highlighted his contempt for the elderly!

The last years, months, weeks, are the most precious as they are so limited and even if the stats say you've only got weeks. So what, those few weeks could be the most precious weeks of ones last years!

Moreover, if people were cared for in their homes by folk with time, the average age might increase quite substantially! Given the stats quoted were all in nursing homes?

Correction. could give a rats should read as couldn't give a rats.

More fearful news from the war front.

Man is a funny creature..And then there are statistics.

But truly, as there are medical curiosities, so there are genealogical curiosities:

*…A proof that a man may be his own Grandfather:

This was actually the case with a boy at a school in Norwich

There was a widow and her daughter-in-law, and a man and his son. The widow married the son, and the daughter the old man; the widow was, therefore, mother to her husband's father, consequently grandmother to her own husband. They had a son, to whom she was great-grandmother; now, as the son of a great-grandmother must be either a grandfather or great-uncle, this boy was therefore his own grandfather.…*

Life is a crazy journey!

The biggest lie was the one about the Morrison government 'saving 40,000 lives' with its draconian, hugely expensive, freedom-denying brutality. Right out of the Communist China playbook. And, of course, there was the Opposition, that didn’t oppose when it should have.

The stuff up was so massive, that the political class will do all it can to block a Royal Commission. And, they will get away with it because the Australian population is so pathetically easy to suppress.

Damn I'm getting sick of this line being trotted out:

"The median age of those who died "from COVID-19" was 83.8 years (82.3 years for males and 86.0 years for females). It is interesting to remember that the median life-expectancy in Australia in the 2018 to 2020 Life Tables is 81.2 years for males and 85.3 years for females. The median age of death of those people whose deaths were coded as "due to COVID-19" was higher than their predicted life expectancy, according to the 2018 to 2020 Life tables."

Not only are the vast bulk of over 80s living meaningful and largely healthy lives in this country they are often the beloved parents, or grand parents, or indeed great grandparents of loving families.

Even then the death toll below 80 is still over 25% of total Covid deaths.

This is a eugenics style perspective from a person who doesn't believe masks make a difference in preventing the spread of Covid.

Covid is a world wide scam! In Victoria it has allowed sleazy nazi politicians and their fellow travelers to gas, bash and shoot people. Destroy all small business and grow big business hugely. Soon everyone will be dying of Covid according to the statistics, Until the new disease is invented.
You sheep may be happy now but wait till you suffer what is in store for you.
I do not believe we will get a proper review for years if at all unless Trump is again successful.
