    Find me an article that doesn’t use words like “covidiot”, puts the word pandemic in quotes, and reads like a rational level-headed nonbiased adult wrote it and I might take it more seriously.

    I don’t read blogspam. Also, the people I knew that died never were put on ventilators.

      I was about to edit my post, actually. [Here’s] a better link. Also I’m sorry for your loss, I don’t want to give the wrong impression.

      First of all, I’m sorry for your loss.

      For what it’s worth, I actually clicked through the bullshit article which linked to the ‘study’, which was another page with it’s own perspective on the actual study, which was linked further.

      My understanding of the actual study, was that there was a high degree of mortality in patients who ended up on ventilators.

      The reality though, is that those patients were on ventilators because their own bodies weren’t breathing properly, so they likely would have died from suffocation anyway, whereas at least a ventilator gave an opportunity to prolong life and to treat against COVID.

      I think OP is either a troll, or unfortunately not quite capable of understanding the realities of what SARS‑CoV‑2 actually is, and what it meant to real people who either had their lives irreversibly changed for the worse, or died due to complications arising from it.

      In summary, OP is a cunt.
