>Specifically, if you take 10 million people and just wave your hand back and forth over their upper arms, in the next two months you would expect to see about 4,000 heart attacks. About 4,000 strokes. Over 9,000 new diagnoses of cancer. And about 14,000 of that ten million will die, out of usual all-causes mortality. No one would notice. That’s how many people die and get sick anyway.

So why is it all year long the world has been operating the complete opposite to this?

Why is it every covid death with a comorbidity was classed solely as a covid death and why is it every couple hundred deaths in places with populations of millions was treated as such a big deal if now we shouldn't be so worried about 14000 deaths in 10 million and shouldn't be in a rush to attribute side effects to the vaccine?

All year long there's been a rush to attribute everything to covid. All year long every death has been a massive deal.

Now it's the entire opposite to everything everyone's been saying all year because...vaccine?
