Why do people still not realize the seriousness of this pandemic? … I’m disgusting, but mostly sad. I wish people could see the amount of Covid-19 and deaths in hospitals and the sacrifices that health workers make.
Lee shared a video he filmed as he left the hospital, showing a crowd in lively discussion with the sound of drums beating in the background. “I really wish people would keep themselves safe,” says the doctor and adds: “Their ignorance hurts others.”

The police have to gather them, take them to the wards. Ask them to sign a waiver refusing NHS aid if the catch Covid, and then fine the bastards.

Where were the police? Why were they not arrested? The evening bell here in France would have seen each of them fined € 135 on the spot for the first offense and sent home, the third offense SIX MONTHS immediate imprisonment + € 4000 fine.

Despite Lee’s sincere appeal, however, some netizens remain skeptical of his message, questioning the danger of the virus, as well as government policies aimed at halting its spread.
‘Not a joke, but nobody’s telling the truth about it. That is why people act in this way, “ a user said. ‘Why should no one ask the questions that apply to this pandemic. Why are the figures massaged or impossible to get hold of and why is there no connection to risks? ‘
Why can we not see it? Why can people not film in hospitals? Why do doctors have to sign NDAs? If it’s so scary, then why all the secret? With that out. Are we not all adults and therefore we can be trusted to see these things !?

WHY? Because they dare to question the story? The test proved that it is 99% inaccurate. The “vaccine” does not stop the spread. It has yet to be proven that Covid even exists and that most scientists suggest that it is merely the flue. The question must be answered.

The Spanish exclusion was particularly strict. In Spain, masks must be worn inside and out. Despite this, Spanish affairs soared throughout October. Compulsory social distance and mask wear do not work. The British coronavirus restrictions will achieve nothing.
