The top 5 causes of death in 2018 in Australia account for above 57,000 deaths.
Number 12 on the list, death from Influenza and pneumonia, is 3102 deaths. Then there is all the illness that people suffer with before death. COVID-19 deaths today number less than 100 deaths.
There seems to be promoted pride in the Australian Government modelling system done by the expert authority.
In 2018 there was not a pandemic arising from Influenza and pneumonia (3102 deaths), or from the 57000 deaths, plus illness from (so called) normal conditions we live in (our environment).
WHAT!? It was not a cause for concern, business as usual?
Okay, COVID-19 is a new virus with danger attached to its symptoms for sure, some people are getting ill and dying. I must learn how to take more care of my immune system.
Looking at the numbers, where does this data fit into the official COVID-19 modelling?
Not a mention from the Government offices and marketing department / media?
My opinion about this is not the issue, I woke up again this morning. I received a text to get my flu inoculation (what’s it made from?).
And a text to download the COVID-19 tracking app (the Signals Directorate will track me anyway if they want to – a practice they admit using if necessary, without a warrant). Every day in the news I am being prompted to have concern and worry about getting Government-recommended medication for the rest of my life. I can get a hefty fine if I sit down to enjoy the vista (not essential).
