COVID is not and ‘has never been a pandemic’

According to what I was reading only the other day the distinction between the flu virus and the Covid-19 virus is clear under a microscope. Apparently the fragment of viral genetic material from the coronavirus looks like a bit of spaghetti while the flu genetic material looks like eight pieces of penne.

The overall shape of the virus covering is completely different. Flu is ovoid and relatively smooth, coronavirus is spherical. and spiky, which is how it got its name, from the latin for crown. You don't need to look at the contained RNA. You don't need to look at the engine to decide you are looking at a car rather than a truck.

It really depends on whether the government priority is saving deaths and illness from Covid. All these deaths from folk being feart about going into hospital are more than likely deaths that would have happened whether or not. Getting admitted to hospital is no guarantee of survival. Their decision, mind.

As has been said before, you can’t legislate against stupidity.
