One thing I learned is how susceptible world leaders are to biological attacks. The other thing is that the U.S. was ranked #1 in biosecurity but in reality performed worse than many developing countries. In the U.S. there seems to be two extremes like you're going to die if you open a window or it's just minor flesh wound for cry babies. What I already knew is that Americans generally think the world revolves around them. Then again...There's probably a global conspiracy out to get them. You're not paranoid if they're really out to get you!

If the figures we have of covid deaths were accurate then yes it does look bad for us. Sadly the figures are way over inflated. 4 people I know died over the last year and their deaths were listed as covid. They did not die of covid but cancer yet their deaths were listed as covid. I am sure that many people out there knows someone who died and their deaths were listed as covid yet it was not the case. I know quite a few nurses who tell me the same thing.

I hear that. I heard the same in this country. I look at death overages compared from previous years. It's not flattering for the U.S. I'm middle ground on this. Yeah, it's a problem but it's not the end of the world.

Well some time has gone by so are we still all bet out of shape over covid? Do we all still think we're gonna die tomorrow because of this little bug or are we coming to our senses or just getting sick of the whole thing?
The latter. Sick of the whole thing!
I just got home from travel which requires a face covering door-to-door. Pretty horrible!
I'm also really bummed that my wife will have to be vaccinated soon for work :(

Accuracy, particularly in matters of public health is extremely important. I don't know why the figures were fudged but they were.

Yup, I second this. This whole thing was used as an agenda.

She works for a company that supports essential businesses - mostly supply chain - and those businesses are requiring vaccinations.

I guess she has to show proof?

I was raised in a small town, Bloomsbury, New Jersey. My father was a partner of a general store named Sheets & Gardner along with Don Sheets. With my father being so well known in town, he was also highly respected.
