More tommyrot. Cases mean nothing. How many people withoyt comorbidities were hospitalized? How many died? Is South Korea using HCQ+Zinc, Resveratrol, and Ivermectin (now that Trump’s out of the picture) to treat the deadly symptoms so the patient’s own immune system can fight the virus?

Or are they still using masks, lockdowns, and other witchcraft totems to kill as many old people as possible?

Unfortunately, old people being cunning and resilient, the kabuki lockdown shuffle just kills young people. Not with COVID-19, they off themselves.

Maybe that’s the plan? Easier to invade a nation predisposed to serfdom and partly depopulated…

The WHO won’t disclose what percentage of yheir ataff has been vaccinated. What should that tell you about their opinion of the safety?!?!?

The increase in cases may be attributed to the increasing number of people going to the testing centers to get tested after traveling to the provinces and meeting people during the Chuseok holidays. That and the increasing number of young people who used the Chuseok downtime to party.

For those who do not know, although Korea has social distancing rules, they are rarely enforced and the rules are weak with no lockdowns, which means with the exception of people wearing masks, temperature checks at the entrances, restaurants closing early, and almost no foreign travel, you may be excused for thinking that there’s no pandemic here.

Anyways, the Korean government has announced that when the vaccination rate hits 80%,(For first jabs it’s 76% while those who have completed the jabs is 49%) then they will transition the country to “with Covid” which means they will not count and manage the new cases numbers and restrictions will be slowly dropped.

So by the end of the new year, hopefully the new cases statistics will be truly meaningless.

“…transition the country to With Covid…”

Those who believe that simply need to look at early-adopter Israel.

If you go by numbers, the vax doesn’t last long enough to live With Covid.

If you go by what those numbers mean, there is no need for the vax for anyone not in a high-risk category.

It is all a scam.

CH,

The thing about early adoption is that you have to consider the risks.

Such as being the first in line to buy a new phone.

Of course the phone will work but it will also have bugs, and if you are not lucky your phone will stay most of the year in the repair shop. That’s why some people choose to wait.

Israel and the UK are the fav targets of the anti-vaxxers here.

Kindly note that Israel and the UK chose somewhat low thresholds to declare “with Covid”, and while the Israelis are panicking and pushing booster shots the British have taken a somewhat laid back attitude.

What has escaped the radar is Portugal. They have a high vaccination rate of 85% and unless you are from India, Nepal, or South Africa, if you have a vaccination certificate you can enter the country and skip the quarantine, which is the total opposite of some countries here in Asia.

The Portugese started easing restrictions in phases starting from August and from the looks of it infections are on a downward trend.

TOK, now do Sweden. Tell us how their lack of mandates killed everyone. /sarc

COVID-19 is not a hoax, but the panic surrounding it and the so-called “vaccines” are. And the experimental jabsare killing more healthy people than the disease is killing obese people these days.

Of course, it’s not going to be reported that way. Too many political consequences. And there’s a lot of money involved.

I recommend everyone talk with their medical professionals and choose which path is best for them.

And if you voted for Moon or Biden, I recommend you get as many boosters as they’ll gove you…

Sweden?

The country that tried the “natural herd immunity” approach so favored by Trump supporters, then later changed its mind, imposed restrictions and has a 64% vaccination rate?

It’s also planning booster shots and offering vaccines to 12-15 year olds.

The Sacrilege!

On the plus side, it is lifting most restrictions.

Not so fast

https://www.aa.com.tr/en/europe/sweden-lifts-all-covid-19-restrictions/2378287

Those three countries had restrictions and are now lifting them.

Just like Israel and the UK beforehand.

Now that I think about it is there any nation that went through the pandemic without any restrictions in place and avoided the worst of the pandemic?

And Korea had draconian restrictions?

Surely you must be joking.

2021 will be the year where the world slowly begins the exit from the restrictions that it imposed in 2020, thanks to the vaccines.

With the oral treatments coming later this year, 2022 can be the year where we can return to a semblance of normalcy.

Then we won’t have to resort to silly discussions about scandemics and zombie vaccines in the ROK Drop.

Dear Comrade Setnaffova indeed has mental problems. Is it because of the cancer medications I wonder?

Dear Comrade Setnaffova suggests that the Scandinavian countries had no restrictions in place and let the virus run its course and eventually became covid free.

Laughable Nonsense!

Does he actually believe that?

His days of commenting here are limited. It will be a matter of time before he succumbs to his mental deficiencies and start babbling more nonsense and his relatives sedate him in order to prevent more damage.

Of course that is if he’s human.

If it’s a Russian bot, then its masters may take it offline, update it and bring it back under a new identity.

Setchliz or Setnalich or Lichest perhaps?

TOK,

We can give examples of countries with a range of responses and vaccination rates that both support and discredit our arguments.

And that is the problem.

If vaccines and lockdowns worked (and were worth the social and financial havoc they have caused), there would be no question.

Places with high vaccine rates and draconian restrictions would be covid free while those without would be dying in the streets.

There would be no whatabouts.

But that’s not what is happening.

Soooo… perhaps vaccines and lockdowns aren’t really what we should be discussing…

…except to agree that Two Weeks to Flatten the Curve and Two Shots and Back to Normal Life was bullshìt and the people pushing it knew it was bullshìt which makes you wonder what else is bullshìt… unless it was incompetence… in which case it makes you wonder what else is incompetence.

In the end, have all the vaxxes and boosters you want. Just don’t push it off on me.

Bonus: Since it hasn’t been around long enough to collect any statistics, don’t claim it is “safe and effective”. And since that can’t be known, it is still experimental. And what do we think of people who experiment with drugs?
