LOL 1 in 6? 1/6 of the world’s population has died?

OAK is one of the dumbest fucks on the planet.

1 in 6 people will have Covid listed on their death certificate.

Roughly 1 in *100* will die of Covid as the exclusive cause of death. They will die at 81 instead of 84 or 88, or whatever.

No big threat. But yes, Covid is a low-level threat.

The other Covid deaths are incidental to the primary cause of death. And inflated because the PCR test is bullshit.

[chaos]

Hardly.

The chance of dying from COVID IS 1 in 6.

It’s the third leading cause of death.

🙁

You're a liar and I hope you get scabies from one of your clients.

[OAK]

1 in 6 people will have Covid listed on their death certificate.

Yes. 

My point exactly.

 

[Dave D]

Are you asking if 1/6 of the world has died from COVID?

If you are, the answer is no (obviously).

 If 97% of the worlds population has had covid….

[OAK]

If 97% of the worlds population has had covid….

Yes.

But you can get COVID multiple times.

[Matt]

Yes. 

My point exactly.

 

Yes, OAK - but 68% of those people have six or more underlying diseases, and 94% have 2-3 diseases.

You state the 1 in 6 figure like Covid is a primary cause of death. You're either purposely being disingenuous, or you are ignorant. Neither is a good look on you.

So 1 in 6 will die *with* Covid, or 100 in 600. But 94% of those people have multiple underlying diseases, so that does away with 94 of those 100.

So only 6 in 600 die *exclusively* of Covid.

That's 1%.

Even then, the average age of Covid death in the USA is 84. In Canada, it's 79.

Again, no big threat. Not *zero* threat, but no healthy person should overly fret about Covid.

This is EXACTLY what I would expect from someone with NO medical training.

You're the classic example of why Canada needed vaccine mandates.

Huh?

The CDC stated the number of American deaths that had underlying conditions.

68% had SIX OR MORE diseases.

That's why no one you know has died of Covid.

My city has 108,000 people. Only 100 have died.

It would take 2,700 years for everyone here to die at this rate, lol.

Low death rate in your city is due to the vaccine and vaccine mandates.

The government locked down the “super spreaders” like yourself.


🙂

[Dave D]

Yes.

But you can get COVID multiple times.

So what are the death rates the second time (and each successive time) someone is diagnosed as covid positive?

[OAK]

So what are the death rates the second time (and each successive time) someone is diagnosed as covid positive?

Not sure. I doubt there is enough data to calculate this.

I suspect it will increase your odds of dying from COVID though.

[Dave D]

We are in the 4th variant of covid, people are being infected multiple times and you dont think the CDC is tracking this data? What do you do again?

Also big fan if your work!

[Matt]

Low death rate in your city is due to the vaccine and vaccine mandates.

🙂

How can I spread a virus I got in February of 2020, and still had robust natural immunity for, as of this past September?

Why are you assuming I infected anyone? Based on what evidence?

Also, the death rate for Covid has remained consistent in Thunder Bay, at about three deaths per month.

How come your vaccine isn't reducing the number of deaths?

 

[Matt]

Not sure. I doubt there is enough data to calculate this.

I suspect it will increase your odds of dying from COVID though.

So previous infection wouldn't potentially increase your immunity?

Is Covid different from every other respiratory pathogen in human history?

[OAK]

Yes….COVID is different from other viruses.

You’re just noticing this now?

So much for the vaccine not “reducing the number of deaths”.

🙄🙄🙄

🙄

I'm not noticing anything.

My city has 108,000 people, and we've had three Covid deaths per month, 90% of whom had other diseases when they died.

But even if it was three deaths a month, it would take 36,000 months to kill all 108,000 people in my city.

That's 3,000 years, OAK.

Just like you, I don't know any healthy person who died of Covid.

Neither of us do.

So no, I don't notice Covid being "different" than other viruses.

Neither do you.

I mean - YES, it's of course different in some ways, but it's hardly lethal.

How many of your close friends and family members have died of Covid, OAK?

[Matt]

So much for the vaccine not “reducing the number of deaths”.

🙄🙄🙄

Here are the Canadian Covid deaths so far [since over 90% were already dying of other diseases, you need to divide the number by 10 to get the real number]:

2020: 15,569.
2021: 14,473.
2022: 12,378.

How many of your close friends and family members have died of Covid, OAK?

15 million deaths in 2 years.

So much for COVID not being “lethal”.

🙄

[Matt]

We are at 12,378 deaths of people *with* Covid right now in Canada.

By September 3rd of last year, we only had 11,304 deaths.

Meanwhile, 80% of the group comprising 80% of the deaths are at least triple vaccinated [age 70+].

But instead of seeing a decrease in deaths, deaths are going up.

[Matt]

🙄

The average age of a Canadian who dies *with* Covid [very few die directly of it] is 79.

In the USA, it's 84.

In Ireland, it's 84.

If you are 85 with cancer, Covid may kill you, when you could have made 86-91 if you had not been exposed to any viruses or bacteria - even a cold.

If you are 85 and have cancer, you can die of a cold.

Covid is not very lethal to people without health conditions.

How many people do you know personally who had no health conditions who died of Covid, OAK?

Deaths are increasing because the government lifted COVID restrictions.

EVERBODY knows this.

You're a liar, nobody likes a liar. Usually kids learn this early in life, at your advanced age one would think you would know better.

You obviously think that if someone has comorbidities they CAN'T die of COVID.

93% of Canadians over age 45 have "comorbidities".

Does that mean that 93% of Canadians over age 45 can't die of COVID?

 

[OAK]

You're a liar, nobody likes a liar. Usually kids learn this early in life, at your advanced age one would think you would know better.

WOW.

Another rude post.

FYI....Ron we'll be hearing about this.
