I even hear people claim that the covid vaccinations are depopulation tools and most people who get it are going to die within the next 10 years! As someone who (reluctantly) took the jabs in May 2021, this concerns me and I'm sure there are millions of people like me. If you go on bitchute there seems to be a lot of evidence in support of that notion and it worries me. I also hear about people on the internet saying that they or someone they know are having some nasty side effects. But today darkmatter2525 made a video saying that the whole &quot;died suddenly&quot; thing is just the frequency illusion and that claims saying that athletes are collapsing more than ever is just based on misleading data. Every time someone under 70 years old dies a lot of people are blaming the vaccine. But what's the truth? I know there's some truth to what these &quot;anti-vaxxers&quot; saying but just how bad is it and what exactly is going on? Should I be concerned for myself and my loved ones?</p>\\n\"\n",

This includes\\n  lighting conditions, chair comfort, location of reference materials,\\n  position of the monitor, and the use of rest breaks.</p>\\n  \\n  <ul>\\n  <li><strong>Location of computer screen</strong> - Most people find it more comfortable to\\n  view a computer when the eyes are looking downward. Optimally, the\\n  computer screen should be 15 to 20 degrees below eye level (about 4 or\\n  5 inches) as measured from the center of the screen and 20 to 28\\n  inches from the eyes. </li>\\n  <li><strong>Reference materials</strong> - These materials should be\\n  located above the keyboard and below the monitor. If this is not\\n  possible, a document holder can be used beside the monitor. The goal\\n  is to position the documents so you do not need to move your head to\\n  look from the document to the screen.</li>\\n  <li><strong>Lighting</strong> - Position the computer\\n  screen to avoid glare, particularly from overhead lighting or windows.\\n  Use blinds or drapes on windows and replace the light bulbs in desk\\n  lamps with bulbs of lower wattage. </li>\\n  <li><strong>Anti-glare screens</strong> - If there is no\\n  way to minimize glare from light sources, consider using a screen\\n  glare filter. These filters decrease the amount of light reflected\\n  from the screen.</li>\\n  <li><strong>Seating position</strong> - Chairs should be comfortably\\n  padded and conform to the body. Chair height should be adjusted so\\n  your feet rest flat on the floor. If your chair has arms, they should\\n  be adjusted to provide arm support while you are typing. Your wrists\\n  shouldn't rest on the keyboard when typing.</li>\\n  <li><strong>Rest breaks</strong> - To prevent\\n  eyestrain, try to rest your eyes when using the computer for long\\n  periods. Rest your eyes for 15 minutes after two hours of continuous\\n  computer use. Also, for every 20 minutes of computer viewing, look\\n  into the distance for 20 seconds to allow your eyes a chance to\\n  refocus. </li>\\n  <li><strong>Blinking</strong> - To minimize your chances of developing dry eye\\n  when using a computer, make an effort to blink frequently. Blinking\\n  keeps the front surface of your eye moist.</li>\\n  </ul>\\n  \\n  <p>Regular eye examinations and proper viewing habits can help to prevent\\n  or reduce the development of the symptoms associated with Computer\\n  Vision Syndrome.</p>\\n</blockquote>\\n\\n<p>Also, from WebMD:</p>\\n\\n<blockquote>\\n  <ul>\\n  <li><strong>Tweak your computer settings.</strong> You don't have to live with the factory-installed settings on your computer if you're uncomfortable. Adjust the brightness, contrast, and font size until you find the best settings for your vision.</li>\\n  </ul>\\n</blockquote>\\n\\n<p>Gunnar glasses: Studies have shown <a href=\\\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunnar_Optiks\\\">some short term relief</a> but generally no evidence has yet surfaced to support benefits of these glasses for long term health.</p>\\n\"\n",
