Some people would say that is probably due to the tier system of lockdowns in the worst hit areas.

Looking back a few weeks, here's a graph you posted in support of your theory that people who were going to die had "mostly already" died.

French deaths as of 12/10/20

It looks a bit different today.

It's like talking to my dog - he's convinced that the postman is a dangerous intruder and no amount of evidence will persuade him otherwise. I think I'll give up and let him bark.

Daily deaths have gone from about 100 to about 750 per day in less than a month and there is no difference according to one corespondent above! And daily cases have doubled in the same time. Perhaps he should go to Specsavers.

That seems a reasonable assumption.

Oh no, that cant possibly be good news. Developed by the wicked big pharma industry, who might make a profit.
Possibly all part of a white and extreme capitalist plot to sensitise the brains of white children to government mind control rays, and to kill the black ones.

What is needed is a more localised solution that does not innvolve wicked capitalists, and instead works with and for all members of the community.
Preferably innvolving healing crystals, mystic energy fields, the ancient power of pyramids, meditation, ley lines, and local community leaders.

And faith healers of course !

Strike 1 for Pfizer....
Whilst they're at it, maybe they could add a dash of Vi@gra

Stock market is behaving like the 'rona crisis is completely over now because of the vaccine. All the 'lockdown shares' (Games Workshop, Netflix, DODGY TAX AVOIDERS etc) are plummeting, while strong economy stocks like house builders are going through the roof...
