It's worth reminding people who opposed the C19 lockdowns in the UK how much worse things would have been without them. The NHS was overwhelmed, people were dying at horrendous rates. Lockdown came too late but, even so, saved many lives. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024... 🧵

The tories had a deliberate policy of mass infection. They and their media lackeys spread the lie of lmmunity by infection to get to Herd Immunity In nearly 40 years of Healthcare l had only ever heard that HI was achieved by mass vaccination. Never by mass infection. They killed 10s of thousands

The Tory gov saw C19 as a money making exercise! what can only be called theft of public funds in the PPE & Track n trace contracts was criminal activity at the loss of British lives! the conservative charter to exist as a political party should be revoked & they should be forced to reform

props to all the futurists and science fiction writers who correctly predicted that a population crunch in the early third millennium would cause plague after plague... #COVID19

The people who moaned and were against the lockdowns were and still are imbeciles, friends of mine work for the NHS and they told me what it was like. They were exhausted and depressed, it was bedlam in our local hospital. I was in hospital with a broken hip during Covid and saw for myself!

Yes late lockdowns probably doubled the number of fatalities and lengthened how long the lockdowns lasted. This is before the fraudulent test track and trace is factored in

If we had had Jacinda Ahern instead of Boris mass murderer Johnson, the death toll would have been miniscule. Instead we had 200k+ deaths from an easily preventable disease in an island.

Never forget why we had such a high mortality rate. Tories never gave a fuck about us.

The line I always use is "Imagine the virus that spreads like covid and kills like ebola."
