Canadian Covid denier who was being prosecuted for breaching lockdown to attend a flat-earth convention is found dead days after posting video saying he had cough and chills ‘but it isn’t Covid, because that doesn’t exist’
//He had claimed to be taking ivermectin, an anti-parasite drug, to treat his illness.
Ivermectin is popular among anti-vaxxer communities as a treatment to Covid but health officials in the US and Canada have repeatedly warned people against using.//

I am disappointed to read that six AB'ers appear to not only not sympathise with this individual, but in some cases have actively expressed ghoulish delight in his passing.
Being stupid is the right of everyone, and sometimes that stupidity does lead to loss of life.
On this occasion, only the man concerned has died, and that is a tragedy for his family, regardless that he is the architect of his own demise.
I think it's a sad state of affairs when total strangers can openly gloat about the misfortune of someone whose only crime has to be misinformed, and making wrong choices, which has led to his death.
We all make mistakes, that's why they put rubbers on the end of pencils - no-one should be taking the moral high ground here to scoff at someone else's death - it's diminishing for everyone involved.

TTT - // PP is a disgrace, dunno why he is exempt from the rules. //
He is not 'exempt from the rules' - no-one is.
If you think any of his posts contravene Site Rules, then report them, and the ED and team will assess your reports in the same way as they do everyone else's.

naomi - // AH, everyone knows they have the option to report. //
And you know this how exactly?
Another of your sweeping generalisations about the site based on nothing more than your own skewed perceptions of what you think you know.
New members join the site all the time, and may not necessarily be aware that they can report posts, so when the subject comes up, I often stick a reminder in for their benefit.
The majority of experienced AB'ers are aware that they can report, and they ignore my simple reminder.
You, for your own reasons, have to try and make an issue of it, for reasons I neither know about, or remotely care to explore.

naomi - // Just as well you’re around, AH. I guess all the newcomers miss that big button marked ‘report’. //
People do miss things - in the same way that people make things up and post them as facts.
It's just a simple assist, you can choose to ignore it - why not try that? It will make a nice change.

//I'm sure the families of the 142,000 people who have so far died of Covid in the UK will take great comfort in that fact.//
I’m not asking them to. I’m simply stating a fact (unlike the scurrilous remarks which have been falsely attributed to me). Up to yesterday 9.24m cases of the disease had been reported. I know that this may include some people who have tested positive more than once. But let’s just stick with the raw figures for the moment. Of these 141,588 people have died. That’s one in about 65. The true number of cases is probably very much higher than 9.24m as it is widely accepted that large numbers of people have contracted the disease and either suffered no symptoms, or had no tests or treatment. So the death rate (or perhaps “incidence” as PP would have us say) among those who have had the disease is extremely low.
This is in sharp contrast to many serious diseases which have been, and continue to be, in receipt of a considerably lower priority than Covid. I’m thinking particularly of heart and respiratory disease, dementia and cancer. Each one of these is responsible for about three times as many daily deaths as Covid currently is and many of those deaths have been hastened by delayed diagnoses and/or lack of timely treatment. So the families of those victims will no doubt equally take little comfort from their deaths, but they don’t seem to matter quite so much.
//To me over 140000 -or 180000 (covid on death cert)- is a lot more than a small number//
Once again you need to put the numbers into perspective, bob. The current death toll of 141,000 has occurred over a period of twenty months and so is an average of about 230 a day. That sounds a lot but each and every day more than 1,600 people die in the UK. As well as that, as I keep emphasising, many who die as a result of contracting Covid would have been vulnerable if they’d contracted any other respiratory disease. In normal times many people with long term serious health conditions succumb to bronchitis or pneumonia. Now many of them are succumbing to Covid.

Same with Gulliver, I get posts removed and suspended for the slightest thing, those 2 seem to get away with murder. Double standards.
