...Road trauma kills our most precious generation
Our young people
Our future
Of course it is more important than a mild respiratory virus
Get some perspective please
What an ill-informed, absurd comment!
SARS-CoV-2 is in
no way a "mild" respiratory virus.
This is the sort of bullshit claim that the anti-vaxxers
made, supported by the idiocy of the conspiracy theorists.
And it's not "our young people" who're the major victims:
The Victorian Road toll shows that
the 40-64 age cohort
holds the highest proportion of road fatalities with 74
recorded for 2023. This was followed by 26-39 at 64,
and 17-25 at 46.
At any rate, no "mild" respiratory virus would've killed
22,798 Australians, to date. You've been sucking up
far too many bogus claims from the conspiracists such
as Joseph Mercola, Robert F. Kennedy Jr, Sherri Tenpenny,
Robert Malone, Rashid Buttar, and Meryl Dory.
Over 760 million cases and 6.9 million deaths have been
recorded worldwide since December 2019, but the actual
number is thought to be higher.
