Who will Biden blame after Wednesday

Who says it? I don’t get it.

Indian sun light has huge immunity content, and cooked food too, so even govt of India is utter failure, rough life experienced people survives better, for old & kids or severe illed may be prefers Vaccination that are when confirmed without errors ( not trial )

Does the WHO ever have good news?

WHO next time you are warned of a pandemic don’t believe China. They lied about SARS, you didn’t believe them, why did u believe them about Covid? These deaths are all on you. Taiwan’s warned that it was human transmission in Dec. 2019 you could have saved many lives.

Wow who would have thought

Please wear your mask folks 😷

7.8 billion people less 5,200,000 in a year isn't much of a dent in population numbers, unless your family or friends are impacted, or unless the virus migrates again and increases deaths more. COVID19 vaccine WHO

That is circa 5m a year from covit. Over 9m die from cancer.... how about the WHO do something about that? WorldHealthOrg2

Meanwhile these anti-vax groups were given government money to tell people its not safe!
