  1. Not covid fatigue, but rather data that the virus is not serious for most of the population. Look up death rate by age.

    1. Theresa75 I mean yeah, if they die from a disease it just creates a stronger gene pool. I’ve had Covid already, it’s a slight cough for like 3 days honestly.

    2. @john15008 I told you already, midwit! Start with CDC website….oh boy, you’re slow on the uptake! You’re probably heavily invested in the stock market too! Loser all around…

    3. @john15008 The survival rate is far higher, more like 99.997%. What we have here is a really bad cold.
      Wiki corona virus, it is responsible for 15% of common colds. The corona virus, like the rhinovirus and other common respiratory viruses mutates fairly quickly, it’s simply an attribute of these viruses. Because they mutate so quickly and are only seldom fatal, we don’t invest time and money trying to develop a vaccine . . . normally.

    1. Some of them are. I’m noticing responses to top level comments are mostly ok but the top level comments are definitely being censored.

    2. @No Thanks Yep. My own “top level” comments on Global videos are shadowbanned from the get go. They think we won’t notice.

  2. No test anywhere in the World available to the general public which can isolate the Covid19 strain of Coronaviruses. The tests look for any corona virus DNA not just Covid19 strain. Pandemic is a psychological operation to keep you in fear

  3. I’m sick of numbers on the news! I have YET to meet someone who’s actually had it or even KNOW someone who has had it! The curve IS FLATTENED! The worst is OVER! I understand you don’t want to talk about all the Liberal scandals and new taxes; but that government WILL CHANGE soon! You best think of your future!

    1. Clearly, most of you don’t understand Swedes. We are notorious for following the rules and anti-intellectualism isn’t as widespread as it is in the United States, for example. Yes, we have idiots too but for the most part, behaving in a manner for the betterment of our community is part of our culture. The current rise is cases in Canada is not the government’s fault. It’s because enough knuckleheads are acting selfishly and irresponsibly.

  4. Why not just have voluntary self isolation? That way anyone who wants to complain about risk can just self quarantine. There should be no problem with that.

  5. Are the Swedes defiant? Or just smart and emotionally mature? This is a maliciously introduced virus being maliciously managed.

    1. It took many years for epidemiologists and biostatisticians to understand the infection rate and progression of the 2003 Sars outbreak. It will not be different this time.

    2. As a Swede myself, we are notorious for following the rules and obeying public health guidelines. Physical distancing is a no-brainer. You don’t protect yourself and fellow members of your community by foolishly believing you know better than the experts.

  6. Cases, cases, cases…. talk to me about hospitalizations and mortality. I’m not interested in cases as it’s entirely dependent on testing rates.

    1. It’s the product of testing rates and positivity rates. I hear what your saying, but in general both the positivity and testing rates will increase as true cases increase.

    2. Hospitalizations and fatalities are lag indicators. We already saw that in the United States. Indeed, we have to look at positivity rates but those too are rising.

    3. Per Llyngrenn umm no! The cdc admitted only 6 percent of reported “covid” deaths actually died from covid! The f is wrong with u ppl, the news reports it twice! And u forget cause they suddenly get back to the propaganda and u ppl are like omg covid bad .0000024 percent of cases die.. the f is wrong with u ppl

    4. It would be interesting to know how many tests did Canada conduct for influenza a & b, and other types of viruses previous seasons. I have a feeling not as many as with covid (Because who really cared if you had a little caugh or runny nose previous years. Those viruses were not as fancy as covid! Lol). Of course it is easy to run thousands of tests daily, have a few hundreds of positive out of these thousands, and then manipulate with this data and play the game ‘horrendous and super virulent (not really) covid’.

    1. We are stupid they should be in prison for deceiving humanity, Destroying business,and taking our freedoms with a lie

  7. Airports are still open, illegals aliens still crossing the border and “protests” show how fake this whole thing is. Remember the projections they had that if it wasn’t contained 100’s of millions would die? no one has ever been able to reproduce those results and even looking at the original results to many errors were made to make it credible.
