In fairness, there wasn't a big loss of the vaccinated either (seems to be smaller, but still a lot of people)... but there was a successful looting of the poor and enrichment of elites

mask wearing I doubt is that effective; "social distancing" certainly.

there's no way to confirm those deaths are all "covid" related; I concede the stress of a "pandemic" as well as impoverishment created by artificial lockdown mandates indeed probably did create temporary worse outcomes though.

polio was tackled more by sanitation than vaccines, it is contrarily argued: https://www.organiclifestylemagazine.com/how-plumbing-not-vaccines-eradicated-disease

Okay, the number of excess deaths (more deaths than usual) had a curve like that - what do you think was responsible? At the time that people were filling hospitals with respiratory issues and testing positive for COVID? Why do you think doctors were putting COVID as the cause of death?

You seem like someone who has accepted a narrative that COVID wasn't so bad and are willing to ignore the mounds and mounds of data that says otherwise.

what do you think was responsible?

I think I already mentioned the stress of concern of being in a "pandemic", as well as poverty from job dislocation as other possibilities. Also people have thought they miscounted too many people as "covid deaths" if they simply died while having covid (could have died from a heart attack, but if they had covid, it was a "covid death"). Also, where do the numbers even come from, could they be independently verified? There was speculation the numbers were not accurate: https://www.westernjournal.com/right-experts-confirm-covid-deaths-massively-inflated-actual-numbers-dramatically-lower-official-count/

COVID wasn’t so bad

The "disease" had a 99%+ rate of survival... a lot of people classify that as "not bad". Example article acknowledging the number but trying to spin why it's still bad: "VERIFY: Yes, COVID-19 has a 99% survival rate ..." https://www.wcnc.com/article/news/verify/verify-covid-19-survivability-rate/275-a4cda9a3-4a33-49f2-8977-6d2b5265d8a8

Nobody cares what you doubt whatsoever because you've shown yourself to be deliriously stupid throughout this entire thread. "Here is a source with a not-at-all ominously bland name proving ALL OF SCIENCE AND MEDICINE WRONG" says the moron.

Three decades ago I learnt that covering your mouth when you cough helps stop spreading germs. I was a toddler and you still haven't reached that level of intelligence. Reading a children's science book would blow your tiny mind.
