  1. California has vaccinated more elderly people against COVID-19 than there are elderly people living in the state. This means they vaccinated about 3% more seniors than the actual population of seniors.
  2. New Hampshire is highlighted for its impressive vaccination efforts, as they've vaccinated 50% more elderly people than their total elderly population.
  3. Several other states have also reported similar results, where the number of vaccinated elderly exceeds the actual number of elderly residents. This raises questions about the accuracy and reporting of vaccination data.

  1. Measles is highly contagious and can lead to outbreaks, especially in areas with low vaccination rates. The U.S. declared measles eliminated in 2000, but outbreaks still happen due to various factors.
  2. Vaccines like the MMR vaccine have some failure rates, meaning not everyone is protected even after receiving it. This raises concerns about how many children might still be at risk.
  3. As more people travel internationally, the chance of measles spreading in the U.S. increases. More mandates for vaccinations may not solve the issue of rising measles cases, as herd immunity wanes.

  1. The theory suggests there are three main agents at play during the pandemic: virus-like particles, a poison, and vaccines. This view challenges simpler theories that only focus on one or two causes.
  2. The possibility of a poison being involved in COVID illnesses is largely overlooked. This theory suggests that some illness could be linked to chemicals or bacteria that mimic COVID symptoms.
  3. Critics of the pandemic narrative often dismiss the idea of a novel illness altogether, but there are signs of unusual health impacts that don't fit with the claim that everything is psychosomatic or just ordinary illness.
