All ive learned from covid is its time to get in shape. Healthy ppl are dying but at a lot less %.. overweight people are dying.. If this isnt a reason to get in shape (high percentage chance of death this winter) then nothing ever will

Also, if they do reach herd immunity quicker, which most experts say is certainly possible, the other countries will see it linger around much longer than Sweden.

Short answer on Sweden is the jury is still out on their strategy.
Sweden had the highest daily death toll in the world per capita

This is gonna be right up George's alley.

So one(of the many) mother's to one of Dwight Howard's kids died recently.

I read 1 tweet and 1 article about it. Both the tweet and the first paragraph fo the article referenced COVID and the pandemic. She did not die of COVID, nor did the tweet or the 1st paragraph article mention what she died of.


The tweet made it seem so obvious she died of COVID that I assumed she did, then I was confused reading the comments. So I went out and found an article and the 1st paragraph made me even more confused. Then finally I kept reading and realized she died from a seizure, unrelated to COVID.

Why up my alley? Because numbers are being inflated or the "lets run around like our hair is on fire" type of reporting that is usually false.

I think you might need more then one news article to pump up the media false narrative stuff no? I just googled Dwight Howard and every article that popped up was clear his daughter died from a siezure.

Is it not common knowledge now a days that anything coming from Twitter is pretty much garbage?

Relax

I don't even know what you're arguing against right now.

His daughter didn't die from a seizure.
