  1. Haha schools that’s make students go physically is funny lmao 😂. Good thing my school district actually cares about us the students they created a better system of online school.

  2. We don’t close down schools for flu, nor should we, the same now. Children need socialization, it is very detrimental to their mental health and socialization skills. Get a flu shot get a virus shot when it comes out, if your worried. More children are hospitalized from the seasonal flu. It is relatively safe for children to be immune/non hospitalized from corona. It’s not the amount of positive tests, it’s the hospitalization … , which in America is very low. I wish they would quit publicizing positive cases, it skews the opinions and scares people. And that is my personal opinion, not shoving it down anyones throat.

  3. “The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. …We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of.” – Edward Barnays, Author Propaganda

    If you get triggered reading this quote, I suggest looking in the mirror because you are the problem.

  4. “The further a society drifts from the truth the more it will hate those that speak it.” – George Orwell, Author 1984

    “It’s easier to fool someone than to convince them they’ve been fooled.” – Mark Twain, American writer

    “We’ll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false.” – William Casey, Director CIA

    “The American people don’t believe anything until they see it on TV.” – Richard Nixon, US President

    If you get triggered reading these quotes, I suggest looking in the mirror because you are the problem.

  5. I decided to stop taking the yearly flu vaccine because of all the lies about the covid 19 vaccine. It is poison.

  6. I remember someone had a summer head cold and it lasted three days and it cleared up.
    They are lying to use so they can impose their NWO system on use.
    They’re to overthrow our Country through the C-19V and stated so.
    I wish i could remember the name if the clip, and its at the end of the clip.

  7. Truly children should be checked on to make sure they follow rules and regulations to avoid the coronavirus pandemic!😌❤👍

  8. The average age of death of Corina virus in 80, Guessing you are as safe as before. Unless you live in a nursing home or in democrat city.

  9. This doesn’t make sense. If wearing masks and social distancing stops the spread of the novel coronavirus (supposedly more contagious than the flu), then it should also prevent the flu. They are pushing the flu shot because they already made them and don’t want to lose all that product and money.
