These are people you personally knew? Because citing statistics that have since been redacted doesn't actually count. We had a local fiasco where there was 40+ people dead from COVID in a single month in my very small town. The local funeral director was confused because he had 2 dead people the entire month, neither of which died from COVID. 6 months later they corrected it, and listed my town as negative covid deaths lmao.



So again, are these people you PERSONALLY knew, or is this you regurgitating fake stats?

How many people do you personally know who died of COVID? For me the answer is none, but I did have an uncle who had a stroke shortly after getting vaccinated.
Personal anecdotes aren't too helpful in a global pandemic.

this statement fairly devoid of logic, ngl

1) i think you shouldnt use the word global becus this is basically implying that we should trust china on the subject. anyone else remember when videos of people falling over dead after vomiting up blood in the streets of china got memoryholed, and then the CCP pretended to defeat said pandemic for the first 2 years of it, and then had to do emergency lockdowns

yeah. global statistics are really dumb. should prob like have not included the word global.

2) yes, word of mouth, and first hand experience does matter a lot. I imagine young sexually active people living in Miami are much more terrified of catching HIV than youths living in rural kentucky where almost no one they know has ever caught the disease.

3) its just dumb to be like you know what, no one in your town or anyone you know is getting sick or dying from covid, but you should take it really serious because someone else living far away from you had a completely different experience. this is typical liberal logic on your part btw.

guns is a good example. you want to legislate rural america that has no gun violence the same way you want to legislate chicago where 15 people literally get shot at every day. global and even national statistics dont mean shit. you need to get off of the internet and start looking around you and thinking for yourself.

I saw an interesting illustration of Illinois where every county outside of Chicagoland declined to enforce the new gun law.

Make of that what you will.

I can't believe people are fucking talking about anything COVID related for 100 pages in 2023.
