It doesn’t as without COVID people would not have died

The excess number of deaths is the generally accepted measure of the impact of the disease

Tracking covid-19 excess deaths across countries

In many parts of the world, official death tolls undercount the total number of fatalities

Very few people have one factor in a death certificate

Not really. You are being emotive about facts because you can't handle them.

The response to this stuff being posted is predictable as usual. Either it gets ignored, people try and make it worse than it is, or there is gaslighting (usually in the form of 'well you don't care about old people' or something similar).

Anyone by now who cannot get their head around the reality of these numbers, or the facts related to underlying health conditions, obesity, and age, are either completely stupid, deflecting because they are scared, or quite understandably distressed from a personal situation that has affected them or their family.

Of course I’m being emotive. It’s a human condition. You should be more concerned about the cunts that aren’t emotive. 1 in 2 people in the UK will get some form of cancer in their lifetime. Just try and consider that.

Main things that bother me

Saying you’ve been jabbed then going on endlessly with anti vax copy pastes

Never giving an alternative solution to the pandemic while criticising the best option we have

Ignoring that large numbers of the vulnerable in hospital weakens the service for everyone else

Personal insults towards other posters while claiming offence elsewhere

The ‘I know more about this than anyone’ stance made while ignoring inconvenient peer reviewed stuff

It’s not the arguments as such just the unwillingness to accept the possibility of being wrong that make this topic as frustrating as it is.

Yup. I am still suffering a bit. Keeps coming and going and I have good days and then bad days. Yesterday, I had a very bad headache again and nothing would shift it.

Interesting that a new Covid study from ZOE says the top 20 symptoms for Omicron are different and have evolved from Delta and the other variants. It says the top 3 recognised classic symptoms are now no longer in the top 5.

Previously it was fever, cough, loss of taste as the main three.

Now, the main symptoms are runny nose, headache, fatigue, sore throat and sneezing.

Fits my symptoms, that. Only the runny nose that I don't have.

Even Boris Johnson is now saying Omicron is not mild. Just much milder and you are less likely to die.

Makes zero sense does it. No-one is forcing anyone to have the jab. It's just there if you want it. Why be so angry about it? I don't see the problem. Unless you're a flat-earther, who thinks the vaccince is filled with pork and a mind controlling micro chip.

Get better soon.

Seems like you can't win, given there was the notice about the rare chance of this from the vaccine and you end up with it from Covid anyway.

94% fully vaxxed, but makes no difference does it.

Covid: New Zealand PM Ardern cancels wedding amid Omicron wave

New restrictions are set to be introduced after nine Omicron cases were confirmed in the country.

Seems a bit OTT, to go into strict lockdown with 94% fully vaxed and 56% boosted
