Resido aqui há décadas e nunca vi um governo tão cruel e corrupto como o que temos! Crianças expostas ao vírus, sem vacina, sem máscaras. Muitas já pegaram COVID pela terceira vez em três meses! 1 em 4 pacientes hospitalizados adquirem COVID nos hospitais! Um caos total!
@MiguelNicolelis
1 em 20 pessoas na Inglaterra estão com COVID! Uso de máscaras foi liberado, se estiver com COVID não precisa se isolar e pode ir para a escola e trabalhar! Situação totalmente descontrolada!
As conflicts erupt globally and leaders flex their stupid muscles, displaying their reckless aggression, our planet is deteriorating, with nature being devastated and our soil, water, and air quality declining, threatening our survival. It's senseless & pure madness!

Os brasileiros não viram nada ainda pois aqui na Inglaterra a Ômicron B.20 se alastrando exponencialmente e atingindo as crianças, pois não foram vacinadas! Vacinem suas crianças e tomem a terceira dose!
It’s incredibly difficult to swim against the current when all you have is knowledge and science to defend nature and the survival of our planet. The ones who hold all the power, money, and fame should feel ashamed by remaining silent and hiding away!

I regret removing my previous post, but felt compelled to do so due to the intimidation I've received from supporters of the meat industry both here and on LinkedIn. I find the current state of the world pretty disappointing, so much hatred that feels unbearable.

Exatamente! Aqui na Inglaterra uma catástrofe! Crianças não vacinadas enfrentando múltiplas infecções em período curto de tempo (de 3 a 6 semanas). Quase ninguém mais usa máscaras, incluindo em transporte público! Caso infectado, não há obrigação de isolamento! Vírus está solto!
