They're the figures that have ruled our lives for the past 18 months; decided our freedoms; deepened our fears.The Covid dashboard published on the UK Government website has offered the public a window into the state of the UK’s epidemic, displaying daily Covid cases, hospitalisations and deaths, both nationally and regionally, since April 2020. Some people have avoided looking at the figures – published at 4pm every day, including weekends. But a surprising number of us have become secretly addicted to poring over them.
There is no money to be made in fear-mongering those other causes of death.

Soon we'll be required to carry a portable defibrillator to get into a plane. When the portable dialysis machines are available, we'll all be required to buy one just in case (and most will get theirs for free from the gubmint).

I stopped paying attention to the deaths when they dropped to well below one a day, on the average, for a county of about 2/3 of a million people.
That was some time ago.I never trusted "cases". It has been clear for at least a year that their test is baloney, so the "cases" have always been hogwash propaganda.
I watch the number of people hospitalized for Wuhan flu in my county.

It’s never going away and it’s never going to stop and will only get worse. They have booster shots and test kits to sell as well as masks gloves and hand sanitizer. It’s all about the money as usual.

General Nathan Bedford Forrest said it well:
"Keep Up The Skeer"
also:
"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." H. L. Mencken.
I'm not saying that the WuFlu is imaginary, but the whole thing has been fraught with politics from the beginning, such that it is more a political tool than an actual public health threat.
If the Government believed it was a genuine serious health threat, then
-Why did they not say a Peep about the 'CHOP'/'CHAZ'/'BLM' protesters NOT wearing masks?
-Why does the Government let untested people cross the Southern border by the thousands every day, then put them on crowded buses and airplanes, then ship them all over the country, and then dump them out on Small Town America?
No, this has become (and perhaps was from the beginning) a Political operation using a Health Scare as the 'excuse'.

It was time to stop it 18 months Ago! The vaxKarens are more annoying than the maskKarens, if that's possible.

They were able to steal an election obsessing over Covid. They'd really like to repeat the trick, so expect them to continue stoking fear.

They need a never-ending supply of growing numbers to keep people scared and addicted to masks. The pandemic that never was is OVER.

It’s all about control....the democrats want to control the elections....they stole the Big one so they think they are unstoppable... and the media is their biggest & loudest cheerleaders. One sided justice is obscene.

I came down with something Wednesday. Flu-like feel, exhaustion, cough, sneeze, chills. Bouts of nausea. None of it severe. I am starting to come out of it today. Took Ivermectin, perhaps belated, but we were on vacation and didn't bring it. Daughter had it worse, but Ivermectin is turning her around. Will we get the test? No way. Heard various people coughing at the beach, but it was sparse. Most didn't wear masks. They can stick their fake statistics where the sun don't shine.
