I had the Common Cold a couple of weeks back, lots and lots of mucus in my sinuses. Took almost a week to get it all out. It wasn't COVID ;)
Thank You, wow powerful...

One of the other videos mentioned Florida is going through it's winter months, at first it went by me but now I understand that more people are inside due to the extreme heat which increases spreading. Same here in Texas, Every year, our Whole family gets the common summer cold around this time. Allergies don't help either...last year we were all coughing at this time, was tuff going anywhere with everyone looking at you with their dagger eyes...Only good thing was if you want to clear a room, just Cough :) haha

Consider the source...from Massachusetts' own state site ==>> COVID-19 Interactive Data Dashboard
17,730 confirmed deaths / (divided by) 681,131 confirmed cases = 99.9739 % survival rate !
You're more likely to die in a fatal car accident caused by a distracted driver!
EVERYBODY!!!! LET'S MOVE TO MASSACHUSETTS! :lmao:

I doubt anyone is going to read or view anything with some quasi reputable links on the site they read for info about IP cameras and think to themselves, boy, I was wrong about my politics...
I don't think anyone here is trying to change anyone's mind. We are simply sharing Facts outside of what crap the MSM is pushing...They make it so easy these days to debunk their narratives...Censorship alone proves this statement.

I totally agree with the first comment: You can't find a better reason for why this government needs its wings clipped THAN COVID 19


Bet they suspended CDC account for posting "misinformation" Huh?!?!?!?

Yep, an educator...fortunately, not all teachers and educators are morons, many use their brains and make sure it's in gear before attempting to put their mouth in motion. Which brings to mind a saying I coined many years ago but repeat when appropriate, like now:

"Knowledge and wisdom don't always arrive on the same bus." :headbang:

Here's a misinformation campaign from the hospital in Bend, OR.
CovidBillboard_3 - Crop.jpg


Without looking at any details, I ask that with such an obvious campaign to mislead, why should we believe anything we're told?

Numerous billboards around the town from local hospital say "97% of our hospitalized covid-19 patients have not been fully vaccinated"

What they want you to to conclude: 97% of covid patients in the hospital right now haven't had the shot. I need to panic and go get it.

Did you notice the asterisk after the statement? Would you notice it while driving by? If you noticed it, would you have time to find and
read the fine print while driving by? What do asterisks and fine print usually mean? Generally, information that the advertiser would rather
you not know, but has to be disclosed to cover their bottom legally.

Here's what the fine print says: "For March 1 through May 21, 2021".
But the billboards went up in late July and are still up in August. Just displaying the information and hiding that it's not current
information is a lie, even if the information had been correct sometime in the past.

Was the information correct ever? Information provided by the county that the hospital is in says the "full vaccination" rate at the start of
the date period was 19.5%, and at the end of the period 61%. It's 68% today, as the curve has been close to flat since June 1. There's a lot
of room here to torture the numbers to fit the narrative:

1. Do the numbers include those already in the hospital before the date period began, or only new admissions? Those already in the hospital
would have had a vaccination rate lower than 19.5%, so counting them would artificially raise the unvacinated percentage.

2. Does "covid-19 patients" include those who were admitted because of covid-19, or because of other reasons and "with" covid-19?

3. Does "covid-19 patients" include those under age 18 who aren't eligible for the vaccine?

Why is a local hospital putting up these billboards? Who is paying for it?

Questions to ask re the hospitalizations:

What is the average age of those hospitalized?
How many were vaccinated?
How many have pre-existing conditions, particularly obesity and/or diabetes?
How many have pre-existing immune-compromising conditions?
How many have been given proven therapeutic treatments such as IVM or HCQ to accelerate their recovery and release?
What is the rate of flu in the past seasons? What is the rate of flu this summer?
