So..... with all the yes entries... that either means:

1. These guys are lying and their in on the scam.

2. They've been paid off - brainwashed by the globalists to THINK that someone they knew died of it or got it.


wow.... them globalists... their reach is long.... the scam is a real deep state thing.... far reaching....

Just a head's up, whenever I say scam, I am talking about the
nefarious/intentional spreading of it in a manmade fashion.

1 in 629 people tested positive for Covid 19. You think everyone should know at least one person? Unless you worked at Cargill, Lakeside, or an old age home with an outbreak, chances are you don't.

As I posted earlier, if their models held true and 800000 were infected, then yeah, we'd all know someone as that would be 1 in 5.5 people.

Lucky for us they were a bit off
Sure got everyone scared though lol

Default Yes.

I was was tested and confirmed in mid April. Now fully recovered but I did have flu like symptoms and shortness of breath that lingered. I’m glad that I quit smoking ten years ago because I think it could have been much worse.
I know four others, which one I would have contracted it form that also had it.
Everyone’s symptoms were completely different some worse than others.
So it is out there and the mitigation’s taken to lower the numbers of infected has worked well as I’ve seen it first hand through my workplace.

However how long can we go into hiding from a virus that we do not have a vaccine for.
I don’t have the answer.

It's not that the models were wrong, it's that we acted fast enough to stop the spread.

The models were based on the province doing exactly what we did. So yeah, they were way off. Shocker.

Stop the spread? That's not how a virus works, it stops by reaching herd immunity or a vaccine is created.

I do not know anyone that had the virus.

If you can't get in to get tested, how do you know if you have it or not?

The test will only tell you if you have it at the time of the test. If they test for the virus AND the presence of antibodies then you will get useful data.

They have just release that ANYONE can now be tested. Go in, do the test, wait for results.

Find the link yourself. Google is wonderful.

I KNOW someone that has it,not a friend of a friend or heard from uncles sisters nephews cousins friend of a teacher.

First hand knowledge of 2, both now recovered.
Second hand knowledge of 2 more, one who has passed away.
Also “first hand” knowledge of at least 10 (sorry, haven’t kept a count) who I don’t know personally but who I have dealt with at work...so yeah, it’s out there. The fact that people are still doubting this thing is real is ridiculous.


And isn’t this the time to “overreact”? I’d rather overreact when it comes to a virus or similar and hope the numbers are less than they could have been. If we/they have “overreacted”, then great...at least we did something right. If we were the ones with over 100,000 dead we’d be freaking out on our government for that instead...in this case, I’ll take the overreaction.

Who said they doubted it? 1 in 629 people in Alberta tested positive. That's a fact

Didn’t say it was you MountainTi, or anyone here specifically...although some comments here and in other posts make it sound like some people are still skeptical...Or maybe I’m just misinterpreting...

But I have seen and heard lots of folks out and about in the last few months doubting it, saying that it’s just the governments way to keep us down etc. Again, not saying anyone here specifically...

I AM interested in what you think about it exactly.

You seem to have strong thoughts on it..... and promote those thoughts without specifically articulating them.


What do YOU think?

No one is denying there is nasty cold bug out an about. Most the people on this forum that shake their head about it are critical about the hysterical response to a nasty cold bug.

i know of 3 people that have contracted this. 1 was A-syptomatic and the only reason she was tested as her husband was tested positive. All three are now clear and back to work.

I know one person who's grandmother passed from it, and am aware of one of my mom's coworkers having it.

You cannot debate whether it exists, but debating the level of threat it poses, as well as the govt's response is a different story.

Interesting tidbit of information from a quick bit of research. On May 17th the average age of death due to covid was 82 y/o in Alberta. In 2017 the average life expectancy in Canada was 82.25 y/o

Lol yeah had 6000 cases at peak vs the 800,000 that the models said. Social distancing must be a freakin miracle. Or maybe the models were wayyyyyy out to lunch

3 people. I completely recovered, one has permanent breathing issues now and the other died.

I don't know anyone with or that has died of AIDS or Polio, doesn't mean they aren't real either.

Kenney cited this statistic a week ago or so and was lambasted because of it. While harsh, I do believe the point has some merit. The current average age of death in Alberta due to COVID is 83.

I totally agree. It’s almost like people would like many more cases with lots of deaths to convince them that it’s actually a thing.
