Might be a great opportunity for you to explain how an air born flu virus differs in transmissibility over the covid air born transmission. Could maybe delve into SARS-Covid versus SARS-Covid2. Surely they must be entirely different in the ways they transmit. Right? Originally Posted by Why_Yes_I_Do

The biggest misconception people make about viral transmission is that they are Airborne, they aren't.

Do you think I am making this shit up? You have no medical background or Scientific Knowledge what so ever. You don't even know enough to post actual Scientific Data of how SarsCov2 was even discovered and was determined to be a Pathogenic Virus and you won't because nothing exists to prove it. So it's pretty funny to watch you jump through hoops posting hypothetical nonsense from so called experts who can't back up their claims with Scientific evidence through the Scientific Process.

I have given the opinion of several people considered expert in the field to supprt my opinion that mask wearing and social distancing was the main reason for that decrease. You have not even offered a reason for the decrease let alone support from others.

Unlike others on this forum I do not pretend to be an expert on the subject. I research and learn. Here is an excellent primer on the similarities and differences between the flu virus and Covid:

Viruses are produced by the body in response to toxicity. It's a bit more complicated than that but that's pretty much the basics of Viral illnesses. Bacteria on the other hand can invade the body from the outside because they are living organisms.

Once again you found an article that supports your POV and incorrectly ran with it.

Evidence shows that COVID-19 vaccines don’t increase the risk of death, contrary to claim by financier Edward Dowd


CLAIM

COVID-19 vaccines are causing excess deaths around the world; sudden adult death syndrome is new

VERDICT

UNSUPPORTED

DETAILS

Inadequate support: There’s no evidence supporting the claim that people vaccinated against COVID-19 are generally more likely to die compared to unvaccinated people. In fact, the evidence indicates otherwise.

Factually inaccurate: Sudden adult death syndrome (SADS) isn’t new. Reports of SADS date back to the 90s. The term is simply perceived as new by many people, likely because of a change in public awareness of the term.

Multiple pieces of evidence show that COVID-19 vaccination doesn’t increase the risk of death. Like all medical interventions, the COVID-19 vaccines carry side effects, but most of these are mild and short-lived. Certain COVID-19 vaccines are associated with an increased risk of heart inflammation or blood clots, but these risks are smaller than those associated with COVID-19 itself.

Yes, this is another of texassapper's attempts to blame deaths attributable to COVID, the disease, to vaccines. Dowd's graph clearly shows an increase in the excess death rate when COVID kicked off in March, 2020. You you see peaks during the Delta wave and Omicron wave. As your link notes, the period when the most people aged 25 to 44 were being vaccinated corresponds with a trough in the number of excess deaths.

You can attribute the excess deaths among people in that age group directly to COVID infections, to deferred medical care, and to the after effects of long COVID.

The graph of death rates per capita versus percent of population vaccinated was also enlightening. There's a trend. The overall death rate per capita, from all causes, is inversely correlated with the % of the population that was vaccinated.

I'm pretty sure that if you adjust for age, you'll see that, during the pandemic, vaccination was correlated with lower overall mortality. That was the case in Hungary,

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9319484/

Now if you don't segment by age, then in many countries, the reverse is true, because higher percentages of the elderly got vaccinated, versus younger people. In other words, old people are more likely to die overall, and from COVID, than younger people. Texassapper and Why_Yes_I_Do, even though they know better, have brought this to our attention several times for countries like the UK and Israel.

Remind me of how many people died of flu in 2020 and 2021? COVID is NOT as deadly as was initially claimed. A claim that was used to justify the lockdowns and destroy the economy.

It's one big sucker job and well, you fell for it hook line and sinker.... Originally Posted by texassapper

a statistics graph from the CDC was posted; it was noticed that there was something odd about it. it was noted that the numbers for flu and pneumonia were way down; covid way up.

it was speculated that the hospitals were cooking the numbers by merging flu and pneumonia numbers as covid just to get some govt. money. this was early on during the lock down.

its my understanding that the introduction of a new disease do not cause a decline of another disease. Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm

So yes, flu deaths were much lower than average in the 2021/2022 flu season. The total number during 2019/2020 weren't out of whack with previous years, and 2022/2023 will probably be pretty average too.

Look at this chart,

https://www.statista.com/statistics/...ths-number-us/


So just based on the chart, and not considering Speed Racer's valid arguments why there actually were fewer deaths from the flu, how many deaths do you think could be called flu that were counted as COVID? Maybe 20,000? Thirty thousand? Fifty thousand, absolute tops?

Well, that's a drop in the bucket compared to the 1,000,000+ people who've died from COVID in the USA.

Please also note there are tests for COVID and for the flu. Presumably almost all of the people who "officially" died from COVID tested positive for COVID.

Covid-19 has never been isolated from any human suspected of having covid-19. Originally Posted by Levianon17

Also, your belief that SARS-CoV-2 has not been cultured is mistaken. Yeah, if you throw a bunch of virions in a Petri dish, they won't reproduce. But SARS-CoV-2 has been cultured in human tissue, and tissue of animals.

This video proves not only do Covid vaccines cause severe adverse reactions. The FDA knew about the possibilities before the so called vaccine was ever rolled out and yet they still authorized emergency authorization of the vaccine.

How does something that's not alive stay suspended in the atmosphere and is inhaled to cause disease? You've been told that because it helps promote mask wearing.

Was it a pure culture? A virus capable of disease must be identified and grown in a pure culture without anything else added. The pure culture when inoculated into a human or animal must produce the disease.
