The public deserves honesty, not recycled crisis language.<\/p>\n<p><b>Proverbs 23:23 Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, worldwide databases record tens of thousands of reported deaths following Covid vaccination.

Yet in the Covid era, even summer sniffles were transformed into opportunities for testing, tracking, and vaccination.<\/p>\n<h2>Why this matters<\/h2>\n<p>Seasonal colds should never be used as a pretext for mandating injections for the healthy majority.
