    I just want to remind people that there were posters in here two months ago, saying that Coronavirus was dying off, and the numbers were about to start falling.

    It's been a long two months for those people.

    Tbh in some countries they are falling, could be thanks to the restrictions. But those posters, yeah, even a broken clock has the right time twice a day.

    I actually have several theories as to why, but still: no one is saying a word here about Qatar - why is that, in your opinion?

    Well to be fair, there are days I don't think about Qatar and it's position in the world, heck I would say even months. Clearly you are insinuating something but I guess a link is too much to ask.

    I wonder if the slaves ( whose passports are taken ) also get tested or counted in the death toll.

    "Increased mortality" and "collateral damage" are terms used to psychologically shield us from deaths.

    In this case "the signs of increased mortality" are that of people with covid-19 about 1,700 extra deaths have occurred for those treated with hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine (and in many cases with some additional drug) that wouldn't have died if they hadn't received that experimental treatment (assuming the Lancet analyzed it correctly).

    Or in other words, those 1,700 extra deaths are due to using hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine against covid-19, because some questionable study indicated that it was effective against covid-19.

    Lies about testing, lies about deaths, lies about hospital admissions, lies about lies.

    Looks like Russian deaths per day are starting to climb up. I suppose you cannot hide things forever.

    Believe me, they hide a LOT. That's just the obligatory injection of a curve so they won't look completely ridiculous to the populace. People in Russia are not dumb, sure there are of course hard nationalists and what not only too happy to look the other way, but at some point it's like "come on, man" reaction at numbers even there.

    So they will make a curve, just enough to make things look a bit less BS, but on the other hand to show how they are better than US and the West (pillars of modern evil) and what not.

    Reminds me of a good old Russian meme, written there: "You should understand already, USA wants to take our resources!"

    I'm only insinuating that:

    1. Facts exist.
    2. Numbers are widely available online.
    3. There is a country that stands out in last couple weeks.

    Yup many were wrong... How about the projections from real scientists? Or how about how if we didnt lock everyone in the homes we would turn into Italy with overwhelmed hospitals. Stop calling out just the stuff that is pointless to call out. Everyone was wrong with this
