We are sorry, this just does not look right!!
No, we do no doubt doctors, science or facts - get your vaccination where-ever you can! get boostered if your initial vaccination was some time back!
The numbers/trends and that curve do just not look right in combination with the vaccination rate of population...... almost spells like trouble down the line.....
Do your own research at CREDIBLE and COMPETENT sources.
No, Facebook or some populist right-wing smear are none of that!

Black aarket of fake COVID-19 shots in Mexico.
Mexico has long battled with a black market of stolen, adulterated, and expired medicines.
The size of this illicit market is hard to measure, but estimates valued it in $550 million in 2012. Now, the coveted COVID-19 vaccines have joined the list of profitable drugs entering the market illegally through scams that endanger the lives of its victims.

Researchers have been studying and working with mRNA vaccines for decades. Interest has grown in these vaccines because they can be developed in a laboratory using readily available materials. This means the process can be standardized and scaled up, making vaccine development faster than traditional methods of making vaccines.

If you are experiencing violence during COVID-19:
~ Reach out to supportive family, friends or neighbors
~ Call a hotline or access information online if possible
~ Seek out local services for survivors

Three important ways to slow the spread:
1) Wear a mask to protect yourself and others and stop the spread of COVID-19.
2) Stay at least 6 feet (about 2 arm lengths) from others who don’t live with you.
3) Avoid crowds. The more people you are in contact with, the more likely you are to be exposed to COVID-19.

Can't repeat it often enough: Stick with the protocol, make "the 3" a must!
Sanitize sufficient
Wear a facemask
Maintain physical distance

2020 was the year we asked "why?"
While “coronavirus” was the top trending search worldwide, we also asked questions like “why is it called covid-19?” and “why is mental health important?” more than ever before. We searched for ways to help each other, like looking at how to support essential workers on the front lines of COVID-19 or how to aid people affected by the wildfires in Australia or devastation in Beirut.
