I get the basics- the radical left is trying to take our freedom and turn us into obedient sheep. But, there are a couple parts of the anti-vax narrative I am having trouble following:
1- The role of the doctors. Actual doctors are overwhelmingly pushing for vaccinations. is it because they have been duped, or are they in on the con? From the anti-vax viewpoint, are they part of the liberal agenda to subjugate all Americans? Really weird, because doctors are as politically split as the rest of the country. Plenty of conservative republican doctors. Why can't they see this power grab?
2- The Flu. Somehow the fact that flu is way down is being used as part of the narrative. I am completely missing this. Obviously with masks and precautions flu is down. But, somehow, this is being used as proof of something, and I don't get it.
Serious questions. I won't debate anybody here. I really want to understand how these two things fir in.
The interesting thing about the numbers padding scheme is it has an element of truth. There are some counted as covid deaths who would have died anyway. Essentially, the covid was an incidental finding.
But, whatever small amount that increases covid deaths, it is dwarfed by the deaths caused by the strain in the system, which are not in the count. The heart attacks dying in overcrowded waiting rooms, medical errors not caught by over burdened nurses, falls that occur while we are all in PPE locked in a Covid room.
That MI, or brain bleed caused by Covid won't be listed as a Covid death.

Do you really think that if they are so ignorant as to reject vaccines or masks that they are insightful enough to engineer a death certificate re covid related?
They absolutely do. I have a friend in the ME office who has taken some of those calls. He says he hears from his counterparts in deep red states that this is not rare.
