On his Substack, Jon Rappoport discusses the link between COVID-19 diagnoses and opioid abuse. He writes:

And neither would big conservative websites at the time I wrote the following piece—at the height of the COVID hysteria.

Big websites were too busy trying to figure out how to blame Trump or Biden for COVID. Too busy juggling their political footballs.

I go back to that article as the Presidential campaign swings into high gear, and the sitting PresidentĀ tries to rememberĀ what year it is.

From drugabuse.com: ā€œIn the U.S., a whopping 44 people die each and every day as a result of respiratory arrest brought on by prescription opioid overdose. The opioids depress your breathing, bring on heavy sedation and make it impossible to wake up. What’s more, the opioids found in painkillers are the same ones found in heroin, which caused over 8,000 overdose deaths in 2013.ā€

2018 estimate of deaths from opioid overdoses in New York: 3000. Many more people in the New York area are addicted to these drugs. In New York State, in 2017, the number of people discharged from hospitals, after treatment for opioid overdose or dependency: 25,000.

Starting in 2020, people who developed opioid hypoxia could be misdiagnosed with ā€œCOVID-19 lung problems.ā€ Some of these people were sedated further, with fentanyl, put on breathing ventilators—ignoring the need to deal with their overdose, their addiction, their withdrawal—and they died. They were killed.
