The biggest misconception people make about viral transmission is that they are Airborne, they aren't.

At least I can post opinions from others that support my POV. You've got NOTHING to support your statements. Neither you nor I have medical backgrounds. There is a reason why the flu cases drastically decreased during Covid. I have given the opinion of several people considered expert in the field to supprt my opinion that mask wearing and social distancing was the main reason for that decrease. You have not even offered a reason for the decrease let alone support from others.

Unlike others on this forum I do not pretend to be an expert on the subject. I research and learn. Here is an excellent primer on the similarities and differences between the flu virus and Covid:

I've taken Public Health Courses in College that includes pathology courses which is the study of disease. There's nothing you can tell me.

Viruses don't posses any of the criteria of a living organism. They can only replicate and cause illness from within the cell they cannot invade the body from the outside. Toxins are various substances which are poisonous that cause premature cellular death. Toxins are present in the environment, in food, Medication ect. Viruses are produced by the body in response to toxicity. It's a bit more complicated than that but that's pretty much the basics of Viral illnesses. Bacteria on the other hand can invade the body from the outside because they are living organisms.

CLAIM

COVID-19 vaccines are causing excess deaths around the world; sudden adult death syndrome is new

VERDICT

UNSUPPORTED

DETAILS

Inadequate support: There’s no evidence supporting the claim that people vaccinated against COVID-19 are generally more likely to die compared to unvaccinated people. In fact, the evidence indicates otherwise.

Factually inaccurate: Sudden adult death syndrome (SADS) isn’t new. Reports of SADS date back to the 90s. The term is simply perceived as new by many people, likely because of a change in public awareness of the term.

Multiple pieces of evidence show that COVID-19 vaccination doesn’t increase the risk of death. Like all medical interventions, the COVID-19 vaccines carry side effects, but most of these are mild and short-lived. Certain COVID-19 vaccines are associated with an increased risk of heart inflammation or blood clots, but these risks are smaller than those associated with COVID-19 itself.

https://healthfeedback.org/claimrevi...r-edward-dowd/
Thanks, I enjoyed reading your link Speed Racer.

Yes, this is another of texassapper's attempts to blame deaths attributable to COVID, the disease, to vaccines. Dowd's graph clearly shows an increase in the excess death rate when COVID kicked off in March, 2020. You you see peaks during the Delta wave and Omicron wave. As your link notes, the period when the most people aged 25 to 44 were being vaccinated corresponds with a trough in the number of excess deaths.

You can attribute the excess deaths among people in that age group directly to COVID infections, to deferred medical care, and to the after effects of long COVID.

The graph of death rates per capita versus percent of population vaccinated was also enlightening. There's a trend. The overall death rate per capita, from all causes, is inversely correlated with the % of the population that was vaccinated.

I'm pretty sure that if you adjust for age, you'll see that, during the pandemic, vaccination was correlated with lower overall mortality. That was the case in Hungary,

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9319484/

Now if you don't segment by age, then in many countries, the reverse is true, because higher percentages of the elderly got vaccinated, versus younger people. In other words, old people are more likely to die overall, and from COVID, than younger people. Texassapper and Why_Yes_I_Do, even though they know better, have brought this to our attention several times for countries like the UK and Israel.

it was speculated that the hospitals were cooking the numbers by merging flu and pneumonia numbers as covid just to get some govt. money. this was early on during the lock down.

its my understanding that the introduction of a new disease do not cause a decline of another disease.

So yes, flu deaths were much lower than average in the 2021/2022 flu season. The total number during 2019/2020 weren't out of whack with previous years, and 2022/2023 will probably be pretty average too.

Look at this chart,

https://www.statista.com/statistics/...ths-number-us/


So just based on the chart, and not considering Speed Racer's valid arguments why there actually were fewer deaths from the flu, how many deaths do you think could be called flu that were counted as COVID? Maybe 20,000? Thirty thousand? Fifty thousand, absolute tops?

Well, that's a drop in the bucket compared to the 1,000,000+ people who've died from COVID in the USA.

Please also note there are tests for COVID and for the flu. Presumably almost all of the people who "officially" died from COVID tested positive for COVID.

Why do you believe that? Everything I've read indicates the primary transmission mechanism for influenza and COVID is airborne, via droplets and aerosols.

I'm seeing lots of references to the virus being isolated from humans. For example,

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7366528/
https://www.mja.com.au/journal/2021/...research-prize

Also, your belief that SARS-CoV-2 has not been cultured is mistaken. Yeah, if you throw a bunch of virions in a Petri dish, they won't reproduce. But SARS-CoV-2 has been cultured in human tissue, and tissue of animals.

This video proves not only do Covid vaccines cause severe adverse reactions. The FDA knew about the possibilities before the so called vaccine was ever rolled out and yet they still authorized emergency authorization of the vaccine.

How does something that's not alive stay suspended in the atmosphere and is inhaled to cause disease? You've been told that because it helps promote mask wearing.

Was it a pure culture? A virus capable of disease must be identified and grown in a pure culture without anything else added. The pure culture when inoculated into a human or animal must produce the disease.

did 1 million plus die of covid or did they die of something else while merely covid positive?

seems to have been more than some small debate on that topic

This is where the believe the government and experts side lose the plot. They can't believe that anyone would lie to them let alone their government and health agencies.

Meh, people will keep dropping dead until it cannot be ignored, and then these will be the people who say, I DON'T BELIEVE IT!.
