Covid Vaccines will sterilise woman!
And men. The uk Pfizer vaccine is not fully tested, not fit for anything, and probably will kill you, certainly it’s going to sterilise women and men!
A number of people have already died, as guniea pigs, (been covered up)
There’s NO pandemic, it’s a globalist communist takeover.
Watch listen and learn!
https://79days.news/watch?id=5fcacae128f48762652461b0
By team of international doctors and scientists!
The criminals behind it must be held accountable and arrested!
This Norman lmis a crank! Typical of the sheep who read believe bbc, cnn, go and take the vaccine, Bon voyage to you :))
There never was a pandemic, its a engineered plot to take down our economy, and kill millions of people.
Why are we still being locked down?
https://www.rt.com/op-ed/508383-fatal-flaws-covid-test/
If you think any sane individual is going to believe Infowars and David Icke you need to think again. Insane individuals on the other hand....
But tell me something. You have Mr Schwab down as a 'communist liberal'. David says he's a fascist (after all, he was born in Nazi Germany in 1938 so acccording to those articles we were given links to he must be one because when you're 7 ...). Which is it, fascist or communist? I really want to know.
Far more people have been killed are being killed right now, because of these lockdowns
Its a scam, created on purpose to destroy western economy, its people sheep like you, who are responsible for the suffering and deaths, through suicides, starvation, untreated illnesse deaths, spread panic, fear, in the face now of overwhelming proof that the pcr test is a fraudulent device, being used to falsely create and manipulate, inflate data.
To maintain this illusion.
This link further exposes the scam,
So mr brook, Go ahead and take the vaccine, do us all a favour!
https://79days.news/watch?id=5fc5c0b4b401b65825b5f399
I like to think I have a balanced opinion on life in general, but to say that covid-19 does not exist, that "it is a scam" is complete fantasy.
This is a pandemic that is affecting people world wide, it ignores Borders, gender, Race, people's economic status and age, and it would be inappropriate for Governments to allow their citizens to continue as per normal without precautions, such as mask wearing and social distancing in an attempt to lower the transmission of the virus until a vaccine is available.
To me this is good governance and thankfully in Europe and other continents ordinary citizens can avail of unemployment benefit or similar benefits to maintain them.
I understand that this is far from ideal, but it looks like there is now, light at the end of the tunnel.
To factual verified true info, of this murderous situation now killing 100s of thousands of people through starvation, no health support for existing illneses, suicides,
People losing there busineses,
Yet someonenon here, keeps putting -1 against reality!
I read these globalists have paid people trawling inet, and trolling people who spread truth anout this manufactured pandemic hoax.
Theres lot communist liberal fools everywhere, portugal, the algarve are loads of these brain dead leftists,
Communism has already murdered over 150 million people in 20th century! 3 x more than hitlers nazis.
Wef, who, un, eu, klaus schwab (dr no) these are attempting global communist takeover, using phony virus pandemic as the pretext.
They are also behind the rigged election in usa, where rigged software, dominion hammer, have been used to flip the voring numbers in bidens favour.
Many people are too dumb to see or understand whats gong on.
So good, they will take the phony vaccine and pay the price.
You cant teach stupid!

Portugese government is now busy doing some damage control by trying to displine the judges that came to a decision that was contrary to the governments' narrative.
https://www.portugalresident.com/portuguese-judges-who-queried-reliability-of-covid-tests-at-risk-of-being-disciplined/
The purpose? Here it is: https://vimeo.com/480896738
If anyone falls ill in Portugal now, what you going do? Call ambulance? If you g9 hospital high chance you be labelled as covid positive, u be locked in there, put a ventilator down u throat and you be gone in no time.
We’re all in danger now, no work, no food, locked up locked down, no end in sight to this, I advise all to get woken up, this pandemic hoax has unravelled, yet MSM are not telling us, why is Portugal still locking down after this land mark lisbon court ruling, and international doctors, renowned scientists confirming the pcr tests are 97% flawed? Are you people listening?
