And if all these additional deaths are proven to be just a coincidence then my thoughts and words and being wrong never hurt anyone other than myself. I'm not sure but i believe i showed you the blood clot i suffered the size of a golf ball, it's very personal to me because of what happened, far too big a chance for me to take but it didn't stop people wanting my freedoms taken and being labeled a granny killer. I can assure you being called conspirator doesn't compare to other things I've been called during the past 3 years.
I understand your situation (The best i can) and the way the media went on did plenty of harm (Mentally) in my opinion. The way you were treated by individuals was a disgrace. I can understand an element of panic and over reaction, A pandemic is a rare occurrence, but some of the media created an element of hysteria and showed no consideration towards the public at large and towards those considered vulnerable, and i'm sure that some people have never recovered from it.

As for the excess deaths in young men, i don't know anything about that, and i would be interested to see some data on it, including historical context.

I know you, and you're a good bloke, bot a bad bone in your body, would help anyone But tell me to get ****ed if you like, don't you think that what you post is the same things that the Media were doing during the pandemic? Aggressive shit slinging language designed to scare, cause panic etc without any real basis, or is it a case of **** it, a sort of revenge act aimed at those who made you feel so bad?
