Various articles related to COVID19 and SARS-CoV-2.

Comparison of the clinical characteristics and mortality of adults infected with human coronaviruses 229E and OC43
229E was found to have a fatality rate, in those with severe enough disease to be hospitalized, of 25%. Yet, most of us are first exposed sometime in our youth, and therefore have a cold from it.

Recently there have been videos making the rounds with a screenshot of table 4 (below) from the NEJM article Preliminary Findings of mRNA Covid-19 Vaccine Safety in Pregnant Persons. The data from that table suggests that there is a 76% to 100% miscarriage rate. 827 participants total, 700 had vaccination in third trimester, so 127 women who could have been getting the shot in the first or second trimester. 96 miscarriages in the first trimester. You do the math.

Once upon a time, a poor man was digging out the ditch by the castle road. And I don’t know how it came about, but the king himself was taking a walk alone along the road, and he asked the poor man:

“Tell me, my dear man, how much do you get paid for a day of such hard work?”

“Your Majesty, the king! Well, for a day, I get three groats.”

The king wondered at this, and asked him how he could live on just three groats.

This is in progress, please check back later. Meanwhile, have a look at these articles:

Based on Eurostat data, I calculated excess mortality for 2020, both comparing it to the preceding year, and to the average of the five preceding years. Overly detailed explanation on how to find the data and do the calculations.

Explanation how I worked out the 2020 excess mortality for European countries.
