    People are dying because of this sort of behaviour- BUT, mainly your Granny was shoved into a private nursing home because your parents were too busy in their status cars and you had no connection and poor people from elsewhere living together killed your Granny.

    Crystal?

    She passed at home- good for you.

    My uncle was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and died twelve years later. Cared for by 6 children, all married, all with kids, in his home, until he died- a rigid sibling schedule.

    It wasn’t easy- especially when he became psychotic- but they sure as hell were never standing outside a nursing homes demanding access during a viral pandemic because they had paid for the care.

    this is such a load of kak

    appreciate I’m being clickbaity here but Sars-CoV-2 hasn’t gone anywhere, we have barely above zero mitigation in play today to improve matters but here we go, all pretending it’s all cool again and pile in like it’s 1999. 40 foot was black today, people crawling over each other, herds of teenagers into the mixing bowl and then back to the gaff to share the goodness.

    this is the state saying “well shure at least we tried” and it’s all worked out very well for them after they initially left the barn door wide open and here we are a few tinnies in the park and we’ve all forgotten. until we go to collect the Covid payment again on Tuesday. until another auntie Mary kicks the bucket (but shure she had her time and the bitta money she left will take the edge off I suppose)

    wtf was the last 3 months all about?

    1. Cui Bono?

      The IFR is only around 0.3% and most likely lower. It’s not a deadly pandemic.

      It’s been completely exaggerated to crush the world economies, enrich the billionaires further and enslave the 99%. Sounds crazy but it’s true.

      Here’s a good site which brings a lot of the facts together https://evidencenotfear.com/

      Wake up!

        well my neighbour died from it and I know of 2 other households locally who are in the throes of it, but y’know, it doesn’t exist in your head there so no problem

          1. Cui Bono?

            Not at all, clearly a typo

            I obviously meant inevitable

            and it looks like my comment has been deleted for some reason.

        1. Cui Bono?

          I never said it didn’t exist.

          It clearly does but it’s nowhere near as bad as we first thought.

          I also know (for all my life) 2 people that died from it too. Both in their 80s with serious co-morbidities.

        2. Slightly Bemused

          I am sorry for your neighbour and their family and friends! On their behalf, please accept my condolences.

      Mix up everything with numbers.
      Pluck them from your botty, or the Internet.
      Pretend you are clarifying everything.

      SHOUT!

      Facts are fiction these days.
      Fiction is facts.

      We need more intellectuals like you.

      That’s a relief!
      Most people on this site are in their late 40s / early 50s.

      I presume you are a doctor, or someone who knows much more than any doctor.

      Either way, thanks for your insight.
      Consider me convinced.

      Life expectancy changes (increases) the older you get.
      At birth in Ireland it is 80/82 years old. But that just means that the children born today should live that long.
      A 65 year-old today has a life expectancy of +18/+21 more years or to 83/86.

      1. Cian

        Can you provide dependable evidence for the” fact that the IFR is only 0.3%”?
        If not, then it is not a “fact” but a “guess”, an “estimate” or an “opinion”.

    1. Charlie

      and over thought. It’s based on no fact and merely a “view”. How “big”, how “small”. We’ve now become even more paranoid since we’ve had more time to read everything that’s written. The media are slavering over this every day.
