Great article, Igor! And, as others have said, not boring at all. My only question concerns hospital capacity. If capacity is down because health care professionals are leaving their jobs to avoid taking the vaccine -- or for any other reason -- some of the new overcrowding may be due to fewer available beds.

I agree that blaming the sudden surge in ER visits and hospitalizations on sick people finally leaving lockdown to get help is absurd. People with chest pain and shortness of breath generally have no choice but to seek immediate medical attention, lockdown or no.

But again, this is why it is absolutely critical that enough of us remain unvaxxed, so that there can be a sizeable control group for comparison sake. I know I sound like a broken record on this, but there is no doubt in my mind that the primary goal of Fauci and Friends right now is to eliminate the control group. This is not their first rodeo with a dangerous vaccine. For them it is ALWAYS about eliminating the control group. People who are interested in this topic can learn more here:

So here's where it's going to get interesting. Governments were throwing money at hospitals for Covid dx but now you have more people sick without Covid dx, which means the cost for treatment just got transferred to the private sector. Yeah they made a lot of money last year but if there are more people sick than an average year, those profits dwindle quickly.

When do the big insurance companies (obviously speaking only of US) report they earnings?

Wonder how this is going to play out with next years premiums?

Any small business owner getting premium increase notices?
