Less would have died in US and the Aussies would not have been locked up if they had access to therapeutics before their Covid developed into pneumonia.
There was an easy fix to this Covid, really no need for the vaccines since the therapeutics would have had it under control last year.
But, the therapeutics had to be suppressed and bashed for fear of competition with the vax. Too bad, so many dead needlessly.
Re: Flu...don't take those statistics seriously. There was practically no flu around. You'd have to check previous years to get an actual comparable. Naturally there'd be more Covid, it was probably 99% and the regular flu at 1% population wise.
