THE country’s COVID- 19 death toll has increased by seven after deaths that were previously under investigation were reclassified as coronavirus related.

How many people have had adverse reactions after taking the vaccine? What role is obesity playing in the deaths? Someone asked for a breakdown of death statistics between PMH and other medical facilities. Would be good to see that number over time. Have to compare apple to apples knowing the severity of tge cases and comorbidities of tge patients. Its like we're living in North Korea with this massaged information.
Israel is doing so much with their data. They're being referenced by the world just by examining "data". They're not hiding anything. Breakthroughs, fully vaccinated deaths, weird biological reactions after taking the vaccine. We havent heard a single report of an adverse reaction other than "oh your arm might be sore". Seriously? We have to do better than this

yes sir - and leave the politics out of it...and why on earth are we waiting for 4-6 weeks to have deaths analysed...? If it isn't clear cut then it's probably not a covid death - it can't be that hard..surely...

‘The World Health Organization is monitoring a new COVID-19 variant called Mu and the agency says even if you had COVID or the vaccine, it might not be enough to provide immunity against it.
Variants are classified into different categories. Variants of concern are defined as mutated strains that are either more contagious, more deadly or more resistant to current vaccines/ ‘. Can you trust them? Scientists at Oxford warned this will happen if they didn’t cut back on mass vaccinations and booster shots.
