Let's be clear about what's happening here. Big tech, governments, public health and the media were suddenly finding it difficult to hide the fact that this virus simply isn't that big a deal, and that the West has committed economic suicide over a nasty cough at their behest. The sudden shifting of the narrative about the Wuhan lab is just another distraction, designed to shift people's attention away from all of them and also to once again try to convince us that this pandemic was actually dangerous enough to justify their malignant hysteria, which it never was.
Err...no. They overreacted to it but let's not go too far the other way, eh? This thing cut a swathe through the elderly in ways flu never could. It's a nasty bug whatever way you put it.
Covid is very much real and quite dangerous to a good chunk of the populace. It was just never the world ending plague hysterical media built it up to be.
Well usually you don't confine the residents of elderly care facilities with confirmed carriers of the flu. No shit more elderly died when policy made them guaranteed to catch a slightly nastier than normal flu
And there were no flu shots for the Shanghai Shivers. There might be now, but I wouldnt bet on their efficacy anyways
Given the level of overreach they achieved I don't think it's wise to concede such points to them, even if they're true. The only way to halt this is an extreme push in the opposite direction.
Agreed, the virus was certainly a strain on the medical system, and that seemed to be the primary reason why people were dying: the medical system would get too overburdened to actually treat people quickly and effectively, causing the massive back-log of patients to start dying because of treatment that was too little or too late.
That all being said, the first five amendments being suspended by gubernatorial fiat is not a legitimate solution to that.
Nor am I convinced that the disease killed more people than the lockdowns.

Yeah it gets quite the leg up whenever you give virtually all of the flu's kills to it instead.
