Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

65,000 new cases, 1 new death. Is that believable?

It's believable, to some extent. Basically because deaths lag infections by several weeks but also because defining the cause of death is much more difficult that verifying an infection.
At least here infections are usually from yesterday, hospital beds in use are partially from two day before that while deaths may take up to 10 days to end in covid statistics.

It is exactly the same kind of ratio as what has been going on elsewhere with the diffusion of omicron, check here Campbell,

Cracks in the wall. As far as I can see and hear (on the radio), only artists and stand-up comedians dare questioning the official narrative.

He noted a stat from the CDC about how "78% of the people who died or went to the hospital were obese."

"So, the fact that America, the medical establishment, never even attempted to get people to live a healthier lifestyle as a response to this pandemic is a giant scandal to me"

Probably a bit late to launch a campaign for a healthier lifestyle "in response to this pandemic." That sort of education and disincentive programme (eg sugar taxes) is a long term project which should have been happening ever since obesity became  major problem.

I would say it is never too late. Obesity is a well-known co-morbidity for flu (https:/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/articles/PMC7130453) and it was mentioned by Campbell among others in relation to coronaviruses and their lethality as early as Spring 2020.

In NL, we have been told some 90% of the population had antibodies about 6 months ago already.
