GERMANY’S DAS BILD SAYS ‘LOCKDOWN WAS A HUGE MISTAKE’

Europe’s best-selling newspaper has announced that the lockdown was a “huge mistake,” citing a number of public intellectuals.

Prof. Klaus Püschel, a respected pathologist and head of the Institute of Forensic Medicine at Hamburg University Hospital, argues that “in the end, COVID-19 is a viral disease like the flu, which in most cases is harmless and is only fatal in exceptional cases.

“It is important to look at the aftermath of the epidemic to see if COVID-19 really was the cause of death,” Püschel observes. “Of the approximately 180 deceased with coronavirus that we have now examined, all suffered from severe pre-existing conditions and were not children or adolescents. The COVID-19 infection was the straw that broke the camel’s back.”

So now you’re saying coronavirus does actually exist? Well done.

The cops never seem to social distance or wear masks, not sure if that's because pigs are immune to covid-19

Of course, dear boy. How could the police do their job and "social distance"? Try arresting someone from 2 metres away. Just as ridiculous as social distancing any other time, unless you have the crap scared out of you by govts and media, and truly believe this virus poses an existential threat to mankind. Furthermore, no virus or infection can leap from person to person without bodily contact or direct exchange of bodily fluids/particulates - eg sneezing or coughing in one's face (like regular flu).

So the premise you begin with will dictate your paradigm and conclusions you reach. Arguing about all this becomes a circular and futile discussion otherwise.

Good God! Even "experts" are saying CV is no deadlier than the regular flu!

Changing the record a bit.

Today's new confirmed cases: 2,684.
Today's deaths: 160.

Both the lowest for quite a few weeks now, despite yesterday being Sunday.

Citing a handful of experts. Don't we always have differing opinions from experts? Climate change being an example.

I wonder if they asked those experts if any action should be taken at all? Some of them even mention other action. So experts that don't conform to Hollow's hoax, 5G and 'psychological warfare'.

I would be wary of judging the mood based on protests in London. They seem to have a lot of protest types down there. You hear less about them elsewhere unless they have a specific goal e.g. Scottish independence.

Just more 'anti' types. Being arrested will be a badge of honour.

Agreed Terry. Here in rural Northamptonshire, where we sit on tractors and chew on bits of grass, London could be a million miles away rather than just 70. We don't understand those city slickers, we're simple folk, country bumpkins.

There was a “protest” in Glasgow on Saturday that consisted of a group of shouty idiots giving us such gems as “the cure is in old recipe irn bru” and generally just being loud about things that they clearly know nothing about. The police were literally standing laughing at them.

Same here, fishman. Im in the Midlands which is up north to many in London. We wear flat caps, carry a pig under our arms and eat hotpots. (apologies to all the normal Londoners down there, we know it's only some who make you look bad just as some of our lot do).

We don't do much protesting since who would care or even know? The media only care about London. So many of us will be rolling our eyes at yet another bunch of numpties protesting in the capital.

Were they mixed in with Saltires and freedom banners?

Maybe the iron bru chanters were false flags? Maybe someone will post us a link about them?
