Any vaccinated individuals still believe they are not just Guinea pigs for Fauci and big Pharma?
And some still don't think these covid vaccines, despite the fully vaccinated hospitalization numbers, the ICU admissions and deaths deplete, not enhance ones immune system.

How many accountants does it take to change a light bulb?

100. 1 to change it, 9 to do the audit, and 90 to bore everyone telling them about it.

alternate answer

How many did it take last year?

Unfortunately the great unwashed and Qmorons who are not critical thinkers complain about 'draconian rules' (their words) in other countries yet they know little of what they speak. Post all of the links you wish but the truth wills out.

'Texas Ted' and a Canadian member here railed about Australia and their rules. The facts:

Australia - population 25.69 million.
Cases
2.29M
Deaths
3,230
Location Cases Deaths
Australian Capital Territory 31,941 25
New South Wales 994K 1,139
Northern Territory 9,702 2
Queensland 345K 129
South Australia 103K 74
Tasmania 25,884 16
Victoria 776K 1,836
Western Australia 1,415 9

Hmmm. I guess it is not working there. Western Australia with a population of 2.7 million. Its largest city Perth with 2 million people. My God, the horrors!!!!


New Zealand has always been a bio-control zone. Try to bring a piece of fruit, raw nuts or seeds into the country and you will pay a hefty fine. If you have ever tried to enter the country you know what I mean. I have. You go through biological control before you can even go through passport control. The first time I was there in 2002 for the America's Cup prelim races the headline on the news for two days was about some school buses that were purchased from Australia. They found a non-native spider on one of them. They were tented and fumigated in a large parking lot for several days.

New Zealand
Total cases
15,687
Deaths
52

The current population of New Zealand is 4,883,423 as of Tuesday, January 25, 2022.
I guess their PM Jacinda Arden is just some Gen Xer who is too young to know and panicked when she put her country on lockdown and closed the borders.

That is pretty amazing. 52 deaths in a country of 4.9 million people over a two year period. Ontario had that many on Monday, January 17, 2022.

Ontario - population 14.57 million
Total cases
971K
Deaths
10,702


So a country with 33.5% of the population of your PROVINCE has 0.48% of the number of deaths. The Maoris should uprise and overthrow the government. Kill all the Kiwis!!!

Did you hear that the Flintstones are becoming popular in the Middle East? Dubai doesn't watch it, but Abu Dhabi Doo!

Did you even open those Twitter links to see what they were?
One is vid taken directly from CNN news where Tapper is also talking about the false/fake hospital numbers and the other is a health expert up here talking about how they are going to switch the numbers up to be "more accurate"

So, do you think what your T.V. screen tells you is the only factual, truthful and unbiased news around?
You do realize, just like up here, MSM is all funded by the gov't and what MSM tells you is what they are told to tell you?

Mostly listen to my doctor. He’s brilliant but better than that he’s a good and trustworthy person in my opinion - he even coached my nephew’s baseball team. Without me going to medical school that’s kind of who I rely on. Bad idea?

Do you realize that this statement is completely false? Or, let me guess, you'd prefer to call it an "alternative fact"?

And here I thought it was funded by ad revenue.

Hey government! knock it off with the ads already.

Also odd how even the people who read the entire national budget never found a line item for mainstream media. pbs sure, but their entire govt funding probably won't cover more than one or two network anchors.

Let me share with you a little known fact I learned on Twitter. There is a secret government department, operating from a bunker well beneath the Capitol (hence the term deep state), funded by a cabal of billionaires such as Gates and Zuckerberg, not to mention the Royal Family represented by Prince Charles, and most importantly the Fed. There are no records of its payment activities, but it funds and controls "the media," paid for most of the vaccine development, and supports numerous Democratic candidates, particularly Green New Deal advocates. It also has a secret supporting paramilitary force that will do whatever is necessary to keep the public from knowing about any of this, at least officially. It also has a group that manipulates all data relevant to the pandemic before it can be published, so that duped brainwashed members of the public actually believe the vaccines are helpful. And any doctor of scientist you might see or hear speak favorably of the worthless vaccines has, you can bet, been threatened by this department if he or she does not toe the line.

I am surprised more people don't get this. Carry on, sheep.
