So you are calling all these poor dead people drug addicts? That's nice.
I give up on you people.
I thought "deny ignorance" was the motto of this site. Apparently, not anymore.
We have to close down our schools!!!

There is a global pandemic and you don't even realise it, matey.
You are indeed desensitized. Not something to be proud of.

This figure was crossed today and will continue to go up. COVID will finish the year as the 3rd leading cause of death. Keep in mind, this figure is deaths per total population, not just those infected.
With the vaccine in limited supply and even more limited by it's roll out due to bureaucracy, greed and denialism; we will still have a few more grim months before the vaccination efforts start to show improvement.
The current surge of deaths will likely result with COVID becoming the leading cause of death in December. Currently heat disease is the leading cause of death, claiming about 2300 lives a day in the US. So far this month, we have seen multiple days in excess of 3,000 deaths a day from COVID. Also life expectancy will drop by as much as 3 years as a result of the pandemic.
While hope is around the corner, this is a grim way to end of the year. With news of a vaccine, many may not take the same precautions to prevent transmission, this along with the season may result in even higher COVID rates before the majority can get the vaccine.

From covid or with covid... big difference.
The problem is they are claiming every death where someone tests positive even if that wasn't the primary cause of death.
Do you have the data on all the other deaths - heart disease, cancer, strokes, etc? are those going down? If so, we know that those people are being counted as Covid instead of what really killed them.

How many times do I have to say I'm not living in fear?
If you don't realise that there is a global pandemic and want me to post some proof there is no point because you will just dismiss the source. Wake up and look around you.

The John Hopkins report that got removed after it was posted pointed at a relatively similar death rate between 2019 and 2020. A point of the article was that the traditional top killers in the US were down but the death rate stayed the same. It surmised that deaths from traditional top 3 were being falsely reported as COVID deaths.
It’s not easy to support data on either side as we have found the our Media groups lie and the CDC is limp wristed. Somewhere in the middle is the truth.

I found the old link to gateway.
Where is you link to saying it was an opinion piece?
I’d like to read it.
Based on NVSS data, excess deaths have occurred every week in the United States since March 2020. An estimated 299,028 more persons than expected have died since January 26, 2020; approximately two thirds of these deaths were attributed to COVID-19. A recent analysis of excess deaths from March through July reported very similar findings, but that study did not include more recent data through September (5).

That's the problem pal.
I am and have been looking around me since day 1. In the streets, in the stores and in a major hospital here.I've been in public and taken extra time to observe the public specifically looking for sick people. I've seen NONE!
It is time the covidiots put up some evidence or get out of the gd way.
The news has had a previous reputation of lying( with evidence) for an agenda.
You really don't understand the bigger picture of how to control society.
It really is a massive problem with boomers and a lot of others.
The inability to question narratives and massive cognitive dissonance that all these non-thinking people have.
The even bigger fear they have is that their entire belief system has been wrong and they should question sources.
That they have been lied to their entire lives.
