Not much #discussion on the real #ukrainian #deaths , but this #article apparently suggests 20k #civilians and 100k #soldiers , which would be much higher than #russian #deaths https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/e.. The #eu training 15k or 30k #soldiers is just not going to cut it. The real problem they have is that #ukraine will at some point run out of #men to #train .
Interesting that #russia is now #striking #ukrainian #cities with #missiles , they will most definitely cause more #deaths than #ukraine did blowing up the #crimea #bridge https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/l.. This could still yet *really* kick off, no wonder #putin is making #nuke #threats !
Would you look at that, the steps we took in the #uk to #prevent #death by #covid is now causing more #deaths than the #virus itself: https://uk.news.yahoo.com/silent-crisis-.. If only somebody had considered this?!
Apparently #china 's #ccp are now #concealing #covid #deaths by #secretly #removing the #dead from #carehomes https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/shang.. It's not even the first time they've pulled this kind of shit. You can't trust #communists - not one bit. They'll do anything they have to do in order to get the #numbers they want.
Even #aardvark is coming around to the #idea of opening up the #nz #border and be-what-may as a result: https://aardvark.co.nz/daily/2022/0209.s.. Even the worse case #projections of #deaths are really not so bad at all. Also I love how his #website #predates #html #layout #elements and #modern ideas regarding not using #tables ! Still works though!
Weird, the #uk 's #office for #national #statistics #ons is claiming that the #official #deaths for #covid are 10x the reported valued, from 17k #reported to 140k in reality: https://blog.ons.gov.uk/2022/01/26/to-sa.. I suspect they go too much the other way, you would need to look at #expected death rate vs actual death rate for something more representative...
So far *zero* #omicron #deaths in this new #dominant #variant - let it #spread ! https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/only-.. This genuinely is looking like #nature 's #vaccine ... We should be carefully introducing this into #communities in order to get #protection from the #delta #variant !
The #who so far are reporting #zero #omicron #covid #deaths and it appears to have easily beaten out the #delta #variant https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/who-o.. Sounds like to me that we now have the *real* #vaccine - a #dominant non- #deadly #strain ! Perfect. #infect everybody with this once it is #confirmed !
A pretty #compelling #story that the #covid #vaccines are working as expected, preventing #deaths https://ourworldindata.org/covid-deaths-.. The largest number of deaths are in the un- #vaccinated , and even that is now on a downwards #trend as the most #vulnerable people are now #jabbed . Time to open up now, the #vaccine was a #success - let's get on with it.
And now non- #covid #deaths are on the rise in the #uk https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/rise-u.. The " #savethenhs " #mantra is useless if people cannot have access to #healthcare ... Cancelling #cancer #treatment was a massive misstep and cost *a lot* of lives. There will be a #reckoning for this.
I saw this #news this morning whilst getting out of bed - a recent #travisscott #concert caused 8 #deaths and 300 #injuries after a #stampede at #astroworld in the #us https://www.zerohedge.com/medical/least-.. Apparently some person was randomly #injecting people with some kind of #drug - but this could also be a #rumour ... All of this didn't stop Travis Scott from #performing though...
#aardvark raises a great point about the #mortality of #covid in #nz versus the #deaths caused by #smoking https://aardvark.co.nz/daily/2021/1101.s.. I don't think it's an #underreaction to #smoke related #deaths - but an #overreaction to #covid ... I certainly don't quite agree with #aardvark on his #covid stance, but equally he's many more times more likely to #die from it than I am, and who knows how I would (or will) be like in his shoes.
Looks like the world needs to take another look at #sweden again: https://ianmsc.substack.com/p/why-does-n.. Despite little to no #covid #lockdown - they have managed to keep #deaths relatively low.
#record levels of #drug #deaths under #sturgeon in #scotland #uk https://www.lotuseaters.com/calls-for-ni.. Not a good look for her... That'll be comparable to the number of people who died of #covid in #scotland !
The #floods in #china have been awful, but arguably the response by the #ccp has been much worse: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxmKcdrp.. The #threatening of #foreign #bbc #journalists for reporting the truth, the lies about the number of #deaths (particularly in their ' #smarttunnel ') , the hiding #flowers people left for loved ones, and many other things. It's the #chinese people who suffer the most from #communism ...
Apparently #covid has caused 4 million excess #deaths in #india - 10% of the directly recorded deaths from the #pandemic https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-in.. The #bbc suggest that is means #covid is more dangerous than originally thought... But it could also mean that the prevention methods for #covid are worse than the #virus itself. Other people have considered the possibility of #foodinsecurity as a factor. I've personally witnessed a massive rise in #depression in India too.
