There has been a lot of evidence up to this point that the seafood market [in Wuhan] was the epicenter of SARS-CoV-2, but these recent reports are the death knell for any alternative theories.

The reason why people thought that it wasn’t the market was because the Wuhan Virology Institute—a laboratory where scientists study coronaviruses—is in the same city. People thought that it came from [that] lab. 

But the evidence shows that the market was definitely the culprit, just as in 2003, when a live animal market led to the emergence of SARS—a smaller pandemic, but nonetheless very concerning.

Human overpopulation kills the planet .

This is exactly the opposite of what we have seen in reality. Prosperity has in fact increased with the increase in population, as paradoxical as that may seem. And with increasing prosperity comes the ability to take better care of one's environment. Sri Lanka is a good example of this. Now that it's economy has been destroyed, its environment is going to be destroyed. Starving people think about survival, which means they will kill every animal on the island to eat to survive, and burn every tree for fuel with which to cook.

The Thai Chinese and other Chinese derivatives across Southeast Asia (even here in Singapore) love blaming anyone other than their own. They'll have nothing to say of the continuous wild spread in China, the deliberate China State cover-ups and dangers this poses. But, they are quick to jump at any opportunity to blame cast concern over India or Farang.

The medical profession will always be looking for ways to screw people. This recent pandemic found them out for what they really are, but there were/are others in cahoots with the medical profession who got very rich also.

Fact check. The terrible thing about facts, is they don't lie. 

 

Globally, the number of new weekly cases remained stable (-3%) during the week of 28 November to 4 December 2022 as compared to the previous week with just under 3 million new cases reported. The number of new weekly deaths decreased by 17% as compared to the previous week with about 7800 fatalities reported. As of 4 December 2022, over 641 million confirmed cases and 6.6 million deaths have been reported globally.

In Canada :

 

 

Nationally, there has been a slight increase in hospital use by COVID-19 patients, but a stabilization in COVID-19 deaths.

The weekly rate of COVID-19 cases hospitalized and admitted to ICU remained highest among individuals aged 80 years and older.

Each subsequent variant is getting weaker and more feeble. Fatalities rates are down all over the world. This appears to simply be an endemic flu, taking out mostly people over 80, or very unhealthy now.
