Influenza never k**led anyone directly. The deaths were due to immune responses, and in many of those responses, the person's t-cells, white blood cell elevation and M**A response, all combined to cause death by pneumonia, or massive congestive heart failure.
Death is a complicated process. But the "press" would have you believe that it's instantaneous event (only in the case of massive trauma, though).

"C***D doesn't k**l anyone". By that implied definition of causes of death, neither do car crashes, gun shots, stabbings, drownings, lightening strikes, natural disasters....
It is a matter of definition. I choose to accept the language in common use.

No, but in context and with no other supporting data it makes the message even more questionable.

From your post, I guess you haven't had the jabs - more fool you. The pharmaceutical companies have saved hundreds of thousands of lives from C****-**. Understand this - there will always be someone somewhere who has a bad reaction to a drug - even to paracetamol. Don't get a job as a risk assessor.
Reports from doctors indicate that there have been about 4 thousand deaths attributed to the v*****es, but in the past, 2 deaths from v*****es was enough to pull a v*****e out of circulation.

Falling has never k**led anybody but landing has. đđ€Ș

I clearly stated that the body's immune response was capable of k*****g the person. Massive immune responses actually cause attacks by i****e s****m components overwhelming the lungs, heart, kidneys, etc. Pneumonia is a reaction to the influx of t-cells and white blood cell increases.
The v***s
causes those immune responses. Please read my entire post.
Read "The Great Influenza..." by James Barry. It explains, in great detail, the actions of the human i****e s****m.

And exactly where are these âreports from doctorsâ? When they had 6 people with blood clotting issues from the Johnson & Johnson v*****e they temporarily pulled it for further review. There was a report of 3,000 people dying within 30 days of the v*****e but no link found between the v*****e and the deaths. When you consider that the earliest recipients of the v*****e were the elderly and those with other high risk factors the rate of morbidity is what would be expected.

You are being intentionally obtuse. I never stated that catastrophic causes didn't cause death. They clearly do, and I mentioned that in my post.
It's not a matter of definition. Even in catastrophic events, death remains a process, albeit sped up by the event(s). When a person dies of severe chest trauma due to a vehicle collision, a chain of events t***spires to cause the heart to stop beating, lungs to stop functioning, etc. Those events may only take seconds, but it's still a process.
Read "The Great Influenza..." by John Barry. He very well explains the systematic collapse of the body's i****e s****m by the over-reaction by the body's own i****e s****m.

My wife are 20 years older than they are and we both got C***d. Two days of feeling bad (her a bit worse than I)...and we were done.
Did you verify that you got C***d via a PCR test? If not, it could have been anything.
She's an orthopedist, not an immunologist. The web host is a typical conspiracy theory promulgator.

I honestly don't understand why you don't understand what I said. I was responding to your statement that C***D doesn't k**l. If you mean by that that it's not the actual cause of death, then car crashes don't k**l people either. So it is a matter of definition - how you define cause of death.....
It would seem that the article contains a lot of junk thinking. This does not mean,however, that the CDC and WHO are not capable of politically motivated agendas.
In the US the FDA is responsible to determine the "safety and efficacy " of drugs. This process can lengthy and rather formal. Safety never means that there zero bad outcomes. A cancer drug does not have to be as safe and a drug for the sniffles provided that the benefit is substantial. (e.g. you get to live). This is why drugs are taken under a physicians supervision.
As a generalization we know that v*****es are quite effective. Smallpox, for instance, has been eliminated.
You can be sure the P****r and the other companies have done everything to ensure safety and effectiveness. Release of an unsafe drug can destroy a company. Emergency use means that some long term and large clinical trials have been done. The available data are extremely encouraging as FDA has given its OK.
At least in the US it is considered unethical to force treatment on anyone. In other countries some governments can force you do do anything they want. So, no, you don't have to take the v*****e. If you then die of C***D, it is your problem. Folks die all the time as they have chosen not to pursue effective treatment.
It true that the PCR tests are oversensitive thus there are more reported cases than clinically significant cases. It is also true that there are more C***D deaths reported than the number of people who actually died of C***D. A Health Care facility gets more money for a C***D death. Blame our less than bright politicians for this one.
Has anyone (except likely the Chinese) done anything immoral? Very likely not. The activities of the WHO and CDC do likely deserve review,however.
