thousands of churches filled their pews every Sunday.

And, the coffers of the recreational and travel industries, megachurches and funeral homes were filled to overflow.

Right-wing freedoms come at a very heavy cost in America, Brazil and the UK to name a few.

675,000 in the US and took 2+ years to do it. The actual figure is probably higher since it's likely that cases were under reported, but in less than 2 years, we have surpassed that number with covid, and covid cases are also likely under reported.

So much for the claim that covid is "just the flu."
