What a joke this is. “Deaths remain high”… they are not dying because of covid, they are dying with covid. They even said it themselves the other day so why are they continuing counting people with 8 pre-existing illnesses and 96 years of age as covid deaths?! How many people have died due to covid? Are there any excess deaths or are we back to normal months ago?
Let us go on with our lives.
