Estimates. 150 killed n USA as a direct result of Ian. 30,000 killed in Turkey/Syria as direct result of recent earthquake. If we had TWO HUNDRED Ians in a row the death tolls would be equal.

Santos still wild out on the loose in DC. It kind of cracks me up this guy is real. So much humor.


He's really the ultimate attention whore, and is having the time of his life.

Funny how the Republicans dare not come down too hard on him...

I'm surprised he's not running for President. It's the ultimate attention whore move when you have no chance at the nomination, yet so many make that move.
He would get my vote over DeSantis:-)
Maybe he has a chance lol

It is ironic that you bring up Ian as today was the first time I drove down Ft. Myers beach since Ian. You would think after 4.5 months a lot of the damage would now be hidden away but so much of it still stands.

These were taken today at the beach:

Seniors still suffering from Covid.
Hospital admissions are more than 5 times as high for those over 70 than those in their 50s.
The rest of the country is pretty much acting like it's over.
The greater the age, the greater the risk.

The greater the age, the greater the risk.

Dementia, cancer, heart disease, cancer, blindness, serious falls, etc.

All have greater risk as you age.

The only thing I’ll be doing in acknowledging the ongoing pandemic is being fully vaccinated and boosted. And strongly encouraging my loved ones to be the same.

I’m not forcing kids to attend school remotely
I’m not closing stores
I’m not requiring vaccinations to be employed

I’m living life as close to the same as pre pandemic as is possible.

I'd wait until studying both sides of the argument, if not already done.

Here's one viewpoint in regards to vaccines.

I can address the actual Corona later, but similarly, check the other side-out.

The following book by the mRNA vaccine inventor can be downloaded in a pdf for free.

Lies My Gov't Told Me

Chapter 1

Who is Robert Malone? Husband, father, and grandfather for starters. Still
happily married to my high school sweetheart. Carpenter, small farmer,
equestrian. There have been periods in my life where I was desperately
poor, and other periods when I have been comfortably middle class.
Together with Jill I manage a forty-acre horse farm in the Virginia foothills
of the Shenandoah Mountains. Like all of us, I do not really fit into any one
category, although there have been many attempts to stereotype me by
various media outlets over the last couple of years.

I am an internationally recognized scientist/physician, and the original
inventor of mRNA and DNA vaccination (resulting in nine issued patents
with a priority date of 1989) as well as mRNA- and DNA-based gene
therapy [1–8]. I am also an inventor or early adopter of multiple nonviral
DNA and RNA/mRNA platform delivery technologies. I hold numerous
fundamental domestic and foreign patents in the fields of gene delivery,
delivery formulations, and vaccines. I have been working in the fields of
advanced clinical development and vaccinology for almost forty years. My
Google Scholar ranking is 50, which is the ranking of an outstanding full
professor.
