Here are some semi-recent things reported by Dr's who are following the COVID thing and are being ignored rather than being debunked, which leads me to believe they are telling the truth.
Of all 'vid deaths that have been recorded since the beginning of this, only 6% had cause of death listed as COVID with no other co-morbidities. The rest (94%) had an average of 2.4 co-morbidities listed as cause of death.
The average age of an American who died of COVID (co-morbidites or not) is 81, exactly the same as the average life expectancy.
Hospital bed availability: Average bed availability of all public hospitals for ICU pre-pandemic was about 8%. Which means that they always operate around 92% capacity. This isn't official, but many administrators have had to get rid of ICU beds due to mandated levels of staffing per bed and their inability to staff at 100% capacity. So, they have the beds, but not anyone to give them 'round the clock attention. Average general bed availability was somewhere around 70%, which means that there were only ever 30% of beds available pre-covid. This is why lack of beds is concerning, but not the bellwether of doom that the media narrative would suggest. Same issues crop up during natural disasters in various locales that have them.
Many people who are vaxxed are dying of covid. That doesn't necessarily mean that the vax is useless, but it does mean the highest population that are vaxxed are those who are most susceptible to getting sick in the first place. Look at pre-covid flu vaccine levels: only about 40% of the population ever got it, but most of those over 60 did. Plenty of that group died of the flu anyway.
I've stated this many times. The vax is better than nothing if you are in a certain demographic. It's worse than nothing if you are in another. Everyone has to make a choice, and should talk to a competent, not sheep Dr. about their options.
There is plenty of anecdotal evidence that young, healthy people (especially men and boys) should avoid this vaccine, but should also take precautions if they get a bad case of the 'vid, as both have been shown to cause clotting in the young. There's a study somewhere that people who take a baby aspirin a day are much less likely to get any cardiovascular issues if they get sick or get the jab than those who don't.
Ultimately, I hope someone is collecting the data that is out there, and I bet people on all sides will be surprised in 5-10 years about the true effect this thing has on the population at large, whether infected or jabbed. I lean towards the skeptics on the vaccine here, and think some of their opinions will be validated, but I also think that they will find that the elderly largely benefited from getting it, while the validation will come when the truth comes out about the effects on young people. I also believe that if all the information would have been put out as we got it, and everyone was allowed to make their own decision with no coercion, all the right people would have opted for some version of the vaccine, and all the right people would have opted to get it (edit: get COVID naturally). Deaths now would be almost non-existent regardless of variant, and society would be basically back to normal.
Prediction time: In about 2 years, the total deaths across all demographics will be down in a significant way for all causes (but drug OD deaths and suicide will be setting records). It will be due to all the people who were going to die without COVID having ever existed from 2020-2024 will have died in the span of the last 18 months. The Biden (or Harris) administration will report this as having "beat COVID" and the fact that the virus burned through all the "dead wood" (health-wise) leaving more relatively healthy people to shift the rolling average of deaths down.
I'd bet someone a Benjamin if I wanted to bet on something so cynical that this comes to pass.
