Oh, shutting down businesses across the globe, increasing borrowed currencies by countries across the globe and add in that the .01% got 3 trillion richer while small businesses went defunct and Joe Sixpack lost a similar 3 trillion in wealth?

It is always about that, real, accidental, intentional or man-made crisis, it is still always about that.

Sixth Circuit Court just recently removed the stay, so OSHA will be used as a tool to reign over the situation and eventually use force.

They called Covid in the workplace a "grave danger".

A court of law and Osha agreed it was a "grave danger"

Hear that all you employers who are making your office workers come back, even though they could do the same exact job at home without you putting them in grave danger? Your choice.

We're back to this nonsense again, eh?

Sourmash, when I read your posts, I now picture you as Kenneth Copeland. The following video about our boy Kenny is even COVID-19 related. Hallelujah... and rock on!

It figures you'd be familiar with him.

When I read your posts I read regurgitant. I read hatred and caustic venom. You're an unsettled person who derives euphoria from hating other people. If you didn't have that you'd have nothing.

God gifts everybody. Your gift just isn't useful to you or the rest of us.

It was just aired on MSNBC that the official record keepers have credited Omicron with its first fatality in the U.S.

Okay, curiosity got the better of me. I looked up COVID-19 deaths worldwide per one million population as of December 13, 2021 for the US, Australia, and Canada.

Australia ----- 83.03
Canada ----- 797.14
USA ------ 2,418.09

Maybe you can't give them any credit, but it seems to me that the Aussies are doing pretty damn well as the "most locked down Nation on Earth".




Patrick, unfortunately... those numbers are "official;" however, they are totally inconsistent and misrepresented in context with the other numbers. In the United States, we count COVID deaths as "Death WITH COVID," not, "Death BY COVID." There is a distinction. The way our system works, we actually incentivize hospitals and care facilities when they can attribute COVID to a patient. This isn't conspiracy, as it may seem, in the U.S., we incentivize certain illnesses like this, such as HIV and Lyme Disease (which I've had in particular... Lyme disease, not HIV). Because of this, patients who die will get tagged with COVID is they test positive for COVID. Even if the death, for example... was related to a car accident, if they had COVID at the time of death, it's labelled a "COVID DEATH."

I know WHY we do this, but I'm not sure why it's OK. It gives a very disproportionate view of the United States.

As it stands, the United States is listed as having the HIGHEST number of COVID deaths of any country in the entire world... which is statistically impossible. The United States basically invented the top three most widely used vaccines, and we had access to the vaccines before the rest of the world did. Additionally, the majority of the United States was vaccinated en-mass before the other countries.

An example is, India currently is listed as third... having only 450k deaths, while the United States has almost 800k deaths. This is statistically impossible because there is no way for India to have HALF the number of deaths of the U.S., while having almost 4 times the population of the United States. Culturally, the United States is widely different than most of the US as well. We have an inherent respect for personal space, and generally do not like it when people get to within a few feet of us. This pervades everything about us, from our massive cars to enormous streets, to huge houses and expansive yards (when people can afford it). This is in stark contrast from places like Asia / India where people will literally sleep on top of each other during afternoon naps at a construction site. Something that was very different to me when I lived in Thailand for the summer. Literally, grown men stacked on top of each other, sleeping, separated by a sheet of cardboard.


I don't really want to argue it... but thought you should understand these numbers and why they are not "right" in the perspective that you're representing them.

I guess like everything else, we'll have to take their word for it, because when people test "positive" they dont even tell them which one it is.
