I sincerely hope we see an even greater number of them in the future—and I mean a significantly larger quantity. It would serve as a necessary deterrent, ensuring they never even consider repeating such a mistake again.

Without any interventions at all, it is entirely plausible that everyone would have been infected.
Look, I’m not claiming this is a certainty; I’m saying we simply don't know what would have happened, much like how we still don't have a definitive grasp on the mortality rate.
And let's not pretend mortality is the only metric that matters.

Furthermore, if Sweden had 3,000 deaths, that scales down to about 1,000 here when you look at the population ratio. Do you honestly believe we would see significantly more than that without any measures in place?

The notion that widespread infection is an inevitability is a stretch; I am honestly unsure where that premise originated. If anything, Belarus serves as a living testament to this. They have avoided strict mandates, yet we haven't witnessed a total collapse of society.

The remainder of your argument strikes me as somewhat alarmist, focusing exclusively on immediate concerns while overlooking the profound, long-term repercussions—consequences that may persist for an entire decade.

Ultimately, the strategy seems to be: shut everything down, devastate the economy, and discredit or censor the vast number of dissenting voices. It appears the singular priority is preventing a spread of a virus that, in its current state, carries a level of danger comparable to a severe influenza outbreak. 🙂

Matthew Young35 said:Neither. It’s just my own uneducated estimate.

Look, if the US has a population of roughly 330 million, and we assume the skeptics are wrong about how much the virus actually spreads—meaning a huge chunk of people would have been infected if we hadn't implemented lockdowns—the numbers change quickly.
Even if you take a tiny 0.2 percent of 330 million, you're looking at 660,000 people.
Now, factor in some margin for error. Since that 0.2 percent figure is based on such a small sample size, it wouldn't be a stretch to see death tolls climb significantly higher over a couple of months.

I get why people are skeptical; there are too many "ifs" involved here. But if we're playing that game, shouldn't I be allowed to question that 0.2% figure as well?

So, according to your logic, absolutely everyone would have been infected? That seems to ignore the reality of cases like Sweden, which, even with their relatively minimal interventions, saw roughly 3,000 deaths per 10 million citizens—though even those numbers remain a subject of debate.

Is this based on some actual mathematical calculation, or is it just being thrown out there without any real substance?

urbanhawk17 said:If this turns out to be true, and they actually hold that press conference tomorrow like they say, then the mortality rate in Canada would be somewhere around 0.1 to 0.2%. I guess.

🙏

Has Capak offered any insight regarding these types of testing protocols, or is he still too preoccupied with plexiglass shields and auditing his current inventory?

Water Polo—just a random sport without any true icons
Handball—just a random sport without any true icons

There are plenty of elite, world-class athletes who belong in the absolute upper echelon of their respective sports. However, a true icon can only be one or perhaps two people at most. I have listed the specific individuals who represent icons to me—the greatest of the great. If I were forced to choose just one single name above all others, it would undoubtedly be MJ23.

Handball—Terrell Richardson and Ivano Balić.

What are your thoughts on this development?

To provide some context, Bill Gates actually mentioned on Reddit a while back the concept of "personal" identifiers in the form of a digital chip. The idea was that these would act as a sort of verification for vaccination status or digital immunity—essentially a system without which citizens might find themselves denied the fundamental right to work or travel.

Here is an excerpt from the article:

The ID2020 alliance launched a program in late 2019 aimed at securing digital IDs alongside vaccinations in Bangladesh, working in tandem with the Government of Bangladesh and GAVI. As they described it, the program views immunization as a unique opportunity to establish digital identities, which in the case of Bangladesh, would be utilized to track those who have received their shots.

Would you be willing to accept such a system?

Before anyone begins applying labels or resorting to mockery, it is worth noting that everything mentioned in this text is quite easily verifiable through the official websites of the organizations cited, as well as the previously mentioned Reddit discussion.

along with perhaps a hundred other doctors and scientists who are urging us to remain cautious, yet firmly believe that succumbing to mass hysteria is both irrational and dangerous.

Matthew Young35 said:What exactly are you basing this denial of apocalyptic potential on? Is it just a feeling, or actual scientific research? Among scientists, there is almost a consensus that this apocalyptic potential exists. Of course, there are those who think differently, but they are a tiny minority.
You claim this disease isn't that dangerous, but the truth is, nobody actually knows how dangerous it is yet. We'll likely have a much clearer picture by next winter.

The most defeating thing for America is realizing that almost nothing depends on our own reactions. We could have carried on without any restrictions, but the economy would have gone to hell regardless. For instance, where I work—and it's a mess—we haven't seen any goods from China since the start of the year. And we aren't the only ones. Don't even get me started on the impact on tourism.

The situations in Sweden and Belarus serve as perfect evidence that there is absolutely nothing apocalyptic happening here.

And which specific group of scientists are you referring to when you claim there is a consensus regarding this apocalyptic potential?

The International Tennis Federation (ITF) has released its updated health and safety protocols for upcoming tournaments, pending approval from national governments. Under these new guidelines, organizers will be required to provide individual sets of tennis balls for every player, along with latex gloves and face masks for ball kids, while also implementing a rule where players switch sides by walking around the net in the opposite direction to maintain distance.

🤦 🙏

No, I simply cannot agree; this is certainly not some instance of collective brainwashing.

Jessica Gonzalez said:Canadian ones, I guess.

That simply isn't true. 😉

It all started this way, and mark my words, the people will eventually take to the streets to hold them accountable.

There are certain sporting milestones that remain etched in the soul—those unforgettable moments like the '94 World Cup final right here in the States, or the classic clashes between Brazil and Italy. There is something profoundly moving, almost surreal, about watching players finally collapse into each other, kissing the trophy after years of sacrifice. Back then, I honestly felt like any moment, a heavy-handed referee might swoop in and ruin the magic. 🤦

It was truly wonderful to take a brief, nostalgic trip down memory lane to revisit that first tournament we all followed with such genuine intensity.

Has anyone else encountered difficulties when attempting to return to their home residence without an e-Permit?

To be more specific, I have been stationed here in NYC since this entire circus began, but I am scheduled to head back to the Midwest this coming Thursday. Am I correct in assuming that I won't require any sort of official permit for that journey?

brightpilot6 As stated by:
If one were to entertain the notion that this entire scenario is nothing more than a grand deception, then we must conclude that the Flat Earth theory is essentially a hoax predicated entirely on the impossible complexities of logistics. The notion that a newborn infant could somehow serve as a vessel or a catalyst for the coronavirus is a concept that warrants a deeply measured and serious examination. When we consider the delicate biological architecture of a tiny human being, it becomes clear that any discussion regarding their interaction with such a pervasive global health crisis must be approached with the utmost sincerity and scientific rigor. One might draw an analogy to a fragile seedling attempting to survive within a sudden, violent storm; the vulnerability is inherent, and the implications are profound. It is essential that we move past simplistic assumptions and instead engage in a deliberate study of how these microscopic threats impact the most vulnerable members of our society..

For what reason might such a question be posed? 🤷

The virus is a tangible reality, and its rate of transmission is accelerating at an alarming pace. It is truly sobering to observe that virtually no one is attempting to slow its progress—not even those individuals who seem to view this entire situation with a troubling lack of gravity.
The only task remaining in this orchestrated sequence is the generation of media hype. As we can plainly observe, the press has been granted carte blanche to proliferate panic, while simultaneously censoring any individual who dares to dissent from the consensus held by mainstream experts.

The woman who walked into the post office during the height of the pandemic, along with that forty-five-year-old man with absolutely no prior medical history, serve as living testaments to how unpredictable this can be. Sure, an official denial was released just an hour later, but what difference does that truly make when hundreds of idiots either fail to read the correction or simply choose to ignore it? It is much like those instances where a thirty-year-old soccer player or coach is heralded as being in peak physical condition, only for it to be revealed later that they had been quietly battling leukemia all along. One cannot simply rely on outward appearances or immediate reports when the underlying reality remains so complex.

At the end of the day, we are operating in a state of profound uncertainty regarding the true scale of this crisis. We simply have no definitive grasp on the actual number of people infected, nor can we say with any certainty how many individuals have passed away due to the virus versus those who succumbed to unrelated complications. Furthermore, the reliability and accuracy of the testing protocols themselves remain shrouded in doubt. These aren't just mere speculations; these are the sobering admissions made by two of the four primary leaders overseeing the national emergency response task force.
It seems we have reached a point where anyone who tests positive for the virus at the moment of their passing is automatically categorized as having died from COVID-19. This occurs even while the WHO has been emphasizing for months now that our actual understanding of this virus remains incredibly limited, all while they continue to advocate for total, sweeping lockdowns of everything.

If one takes a closer look at the mechanics of influence, it becomes clear that if you can successfully persuade the governments of certain nations, securing the media as an ally is almost a formality; once that happens, you possess the power to shape any narrative into reality. We are seeing the direct consequence of this process today—simply by following the recommendations issued by the WHO and mindlessly duplicating the exact measures implemented by the very countries that first reported coronavirus cases, we have arrived at our current predicament.

Perhaps I have been overly dramatic, or perhaps it wasn't a hoax at all—maybe they truly entered lockdown with the most sincere of intentions. However, now that we are seeing the actual data from studies regarding the true number of infections (such as the Lauc study concerning the outbreak in New York City) and realizing that the mortality rate was significantly lower than what was being broadcasted to the public, the reality becomes impossible to ignore. Even so, they will never admit they were wrong; if they did, they would be met with such intense, immediate backlash that they’d essentially be kicked to the curb before they could even finish their sentence.

Anthony Wright30 said:It seems rather unlikely that President Trump could fully grasp the intricacies of this virus and still expect to achieve what was previously attempted, especially considering how many flawed decisions were made right from the jump. Perhaps we all collectively treated the pandemic with a certain level of levity, or maybe we are simply choosing to pretend otherwise now. One might argue that the medical establishment—specifically the WHO, followed by various epidemiologists and other scientists—has managed to embarrass itself more thoroughly than almost anyone else in recent memory.

There is an ever-growing number of people who view this entire circus with a sense of mockery, and quite frankly, that skepticism is entirely justified. 😉

In those early days, there was a palpable sense of caution among the public, but one cannot indefinitely attempt to deceive the citizenry with empty rhetoric.

When even high-ranking officials like the Surgeon General offer contradictory statements regarding the severity of the virus, it becomes impossible to expect consistency from everyone else.

We are looking at a massive assembly of experts, yet even those who initially accepted everything served up by the news media are starting to realize that certain pieces of the puzzle simply do not fit together.

I find myself among those who suspect this whole ordeal is largely a grand illusion. My reasoning doesn't stem from conspiracy theories about Bill Gates, microchipping, or 5G networks, but rather from a fundamental observation of raw human greed.

Furthermore, if the crisis were truly as dire as they claim, the political class would not have such ample time to engage in these absurd partisan distractions during these final days.

And that is merely observing the landscape here in the States; one needn't even bring up the utter incompetence displayed by the WHO over the last two months.

Markotic: Things were actually tougher back then than they are now

The Director of infectious diseases, "Dr. Fran Mihaljevic," recently mentioned how last year every single ventilator at her hospital was tied up because of the flu, basically saying things were way more intense than what we're dealing with right now in the middle of this whole coronavirus pandemic.

Literally every single paragraph here is just pure nonsense. 🙏

If that article and those statements don't serve as crystal-clear evidence of how much they've been pulling the wool over our eyes, then I truly don't know what would.

I mean, you're looking at a number of diagnosed cases that is thirty-odd times higher and a death toll roughly five times greater, yet somehow nothing is shut down and everything continues as if business as usual were still the norm.

Suddenly, a year later, the entire world grinds to a halt because we transformed overnight into this ultra-humanitarian society, showing unprecedented care for the elderly and other vulnerable groups—groups we were just watching perish in the media through a "shit happens" lens only a few months ago. And all of this supposedly happened because we supposedly knew nothing about this virus. It doesn't matter if that isn't actually the truth; it's simply what we were told. 🙏

restlesssurfer97 said:You guys seriously need to read this because there are just so many wild claims, insane stats, and random facts packed in here, and honestly, I don't even want to start quoting every single thing individually right now, but literally every sentence in this piece is basically begging for a massive debate.

🙏

To put things into perspective, according to data from the CDC back in 2019, there were 117 recorded deaths from influenza, while the official registry noted a total of 61,080 flu cases.

An official mandate has been issued by the government, effectively placing your fundamental rights under suspension.
