Well Sid, starting your reply with "absolutely", some may infer we are on the same page. That would be incorrect.
A couple of points of departure are thus:
The home medical kits in Uttar Paradesh, while I applaud the effort, where they throw everything but the kitchen sink, unfortunately does not provide any significant evidence into what worked. For example maybe the combination of Vitamin D and Zinc contributed 100% of the effect and Ivermectin was nil. We don't know. More study is required and should be conducted.
Your comment "The vaccines have ZERO data for long term effects" is misleading. The vaccines are only a year old, so there is no long term data. There is no long term data to dispute the effectiveness of the vaccines. But there is significant short term data in support of the vaccines. We have been using vaccines effectively for decades to fight other diseases successfully. IMHO, this gives the benefit of the doubt to the vaccines until there is sufficient evidence to the contrary.

Not that there is an actual problem there. Only one is correct: they want control, or there is a problem with covid. Based on their stance over the last year and a half, the logical inference is there is a problem. Their poll numbers are tanking. But still they are doing this for control?! Maybe they are doing it because they realize it needs to be done. Just like governments, liberal and conservative, all around the world have needed to act.
But lucky for chesstalk readers, Bozo the clown has cracked the case and is here to give us some more bitchute video links.

You might not want to call people "clowns" when you see them face to face as that could be much more deleterious to your health than COVID. On the other hand, go ahead and do that too, especially around large crowds of COVID dissidents.
Brian the one that is stupid enough to put up fake stories about Ivermection and still believes it is for horses only. Ok, Bullshit Brian have fun.

This quote was very telling 'The researchers excluded long-term care residents from the data" Of course, why include data from the group that is afflicted the most that comprised 81% of deaths in 2020?
"Pravda" would be a better source of information!
"The researchers excluded long-term care residents from the data, who are generally at increased risk of hospitalization and death from COVID-19, in order to get a better sense of vaccine effectiveness in the general population - and the results were exceptional".
So, no deception intended, transparency, and getting to the question on all our minds, when can we return to normal?

I thought the article was great. Now I realize you meant your question to be rhetorical, but if you read the entire sentence, there's your answer.

Nope, this is the one group that matters most and likely would have the worst result as stated, good, bad or ugly show the darned numbers! Here is why it
is so important to track the elderly, consider these results health officials posted last month from the State of Vermont. What happened to the theory of protecting
the most vulnerable? Judging by these results the goal is quite the opposite.

GM Hikaru reviews the risks FIDE (The Federation for Ignoring Diseases & Epidemics) is willing to take with players' health to play in the Grand Swiss in Riga (Oct. 25, 2021 – Nov. 8, 2021) for a chance to be Champ.

Lativa has just announced a month-long Covid-19 lockdown.

So the country Latvia is now in Covid-19 lockdown and FIDE decides to hold a grand event in the middle of this lockdown ... LOOL!!!
Earlier in the year (2021) FIDE host Isle of Man canceled the same event due to Covid-19...

FIDE Chess.com Grand Swiss and Women’s Grand Swiss – Important Announcement
Published: 07 Aug 2021
It is with regret that we announce that Isle of Man will not be hosting the FIDE Chess.com Grand Swiss and Women’s Grand Swiss after all. Under Isle of Man and UK COVID-19 restrictions, there are currently too many players that would need to self-isolate before the tournaments, with no realistic prospect of this significantly changing before the scheduled start date of 25 October.
FIDE, with the support of the Grand Swiss sponsor, the Scheinberg family, is working hard to find an alternative host country with an experienced organising team that is positioned to welcome all 164 participants without restrictions. Furthermore, FIDE is fully committed to staging the event in the format and dates originally scheduled. The new venue for the event will be confirmed within a week.
This has been a difficult decision to make but we believe it is in the best interests of the players of both tournaments. Thank you for your understanding.

Covid’s decline may be good news for America, bad news for Biden. While Trump launched Operation Warp Speed, Biden reaped its political benefits.
The pandemic isn’t exactly over, with more than 70,000 new daily cases and about 1,400 deaths. But the case figures are less than half than the early August peak.
While there could be an uptick as colder weather forces more people inside, the Washington Post says the pandemic "appears to be winding down in the United States in a thousand subtle ways, but without any singular milestone, or a cymbal-crashing announcement of freedom from the virus." As one expert put it, the virus just fades into the background, like the flu.

Now there’s no question that the pandemic was Joe Biden’s principal issue in the campaign, and his assault on Donald Trump’s handling of the virus was crucial to his winning the White House. And while Trump launched Operation Warp Speed, it was Biden who rolled it out--and reaped the political benefits as a vast swath of the country got the shots. That is, until 80 million Americans refused to be vaccinated, the president imposed mandates and the Delta variant surged. Those developments, along with the Afghanistan debacle and border crisis, fueled Biden’s slide in the polls.
