Not lies, you just don't know how to read.

Using their linked database, I couldn't find a single reference to the Pfizer/ BioNtech, Moderna, or Oxford/ AstraZeneca vaccines. Reading their tables, NONE of them listed specific vaccines or companies. And their conclusion about "trials" in general (drug trials, therapy trails, etc) that older people "are likely" to be excluded doesn't say that they were excluded in any of the vaccine trials.

And THESE all refer to the same study as above, and are mere echoes in your echo chamber.

As for THIS one

it complains that they're UNDER represented, not that they're not represented.



Have fun with YOUR significant comorbidities!


So, whatever, JACK.

Covid-19 Is Feeding the GOP Addiction to Conspiracy Theories
Radicalized by Covid disruptions and incited by Trump and his party, an alarming number of Americans refuse to accept the election results.

The Washington Post has surveyed the 249 Republicans serving in the House of Representatives and the Senate to get them to answer a simple question: Did Joe Biden win the presidential election? The newspaper was able to find only 27 congressional Republicans who were willing to affirm this simple truth. Of the remaining 222 congressional Republicans, two declared Trump had won, and 220 (approximately 88 percent of all congressional Republicans) refused to say who won. The details of who is willing to acknowledge reality is even more dismaying. As the newspaper details, “Of the 15 House Republicans who recognize the true winner, six are retiring from politics at the end of this month and two more represent districts that Biden won convincingly.”

Many Republican voters share this unwillingness to accept Biden’s victory. On Friday, a Washington Post article reported that “A Nov. 13-17 Reuters/Ipsos poll found that 68 percent of Republicans (+/-5) say that the 2020 presidential election was rigged. A Monmouth poll carried out between Nov. 12 and Nov. 16 finds that 61 percent of Republicans (+/-3.5) are ‘not at all confident’ that the election was fair and accurate.”

The power of propaganda. It works on idiots.

COVID-19 mortality rate in Europe and the United States:

What’s truly different about the US is its steady rise. The other countries were flat for a few months and then took off during the latest wave. By contrast, the US just kept growing and growing, steadily overtaking the other countries. Now we’re starting to turn up too and we’ll probably be near the top of the league tables by the end of the year.

Oh, and BTW...

Less people have died in America this year than on this day last year, according to the CDC.


So keep Karening over nothing, Karens.
