Media trumpeting “1m deaths worldwide of Covid” (with Covid). Annually there are around:
60m total deaths including:
17m cardiovascular deaths
10m cancer
7m respiratory diseases/infections
3m dementia
1.5m road deaths
1m suicides

Many Covid would’ve been in the above this yr.
We’ve completely lost all sense of perspective. The actual number of people who have died exclusively of this “deadly virus” is a small fraction of the million.

It’s a sad fact of life that people die. We are destroying our physical and mental health, economies and way of life.
How many extra deaths from all other causes will there be as a direct result of the ludicrous response to this virus? It’s my belief it will dwarf the number of people who have actually died as a direct result of Covid-19. History will judge this period harshly.
If you’ve got terrified family members or friends, or worse, genuine Covid enthusiasts (there are plenty about) in your circle, it’s time to start introducing them to some facts. Turn of the telly and look at the evidence.
Then ask them to look around at what’s going on in our society:
Masks
Lockdowns
Travel bans
Bans on seeing elderly relatives even at end of life
Most leisure activities curtailed
Mass unemployment
Terrified populace
Covid snitch hotlines
Covid marshals
Businesses closing
A senior Tory MP saying yesterday we won’t be able to travel without Covid certification. People unable to enter restaurants without NHS App, amongst other businesses. Govt wants to track us all individually.

Is this all reasonable?

And the bad news is, there’s no end in sight.
