Also what kind of people pose with a couple of dogs and an ultrasound image labeled “we are getting a human”?
There are going to be millions more orphans when the vaccinated start dying in great swaths like cut wheat.
Cute dogs though.
They're cuter than the couple would have been. She was gonna be a land whale for sure by 45. Dude clearly doesn't (didn't?) miss arm day. Guy probably looks like a meatloaf on toothpicks wearing swim trunks.

Looks like he missed Chest, Shoulder, Legs Days though
Two mostly healthy looking people, middle 30's don't die of covid. Seems made up or being hyperbolic and/or they had underlying conditions.

Johannesburg lawyers Sheena and Craig Scott became parents in June.
Within weeks, the parents of a young girl had died from Covid-19 complications.
With the baby safely cared for by family, kind friends are now looking for a good home for Sheena's beloved dogs.
Johannesburg lawyers Sheena and Craig Scott were blessed with their first child at the end of June.
The couple had known each other since 2012. They marked their wedding in 2020 with a happy Facebook status update and were showered with good wishes.
Their daughter was born at the end of June, but as the couple settled into their new roles as parents, Covid-19 struck, and tragedy soon followed.
Sheena was the first to get ill a week after the birth of their daughter. Then Craig also contracted the virus.
Craig died on 27 July aged 35, and Sheena died two weeks later on 13 August aged 33.
Sheena's best friend, Cari du Toit, told News24 on Thursday, which would have been Sheena's birthday:
It's been a really rough ride. Covid hit, and it ended in disaster.
Du Toit is not unfamiliar with grief as an attorney at Cari du Toit Inc Attorneys, but the loss of her dear friends after the birth of their baby has been a knockout punch.
"It is really the most catastrophic thing I have seen," she said.
Being at the coalface of carrying out the final wishes of the dead, she has this advice during the Covid-19 pandemic: "You must get your affairs in order.
"Even if you don't think you have anything - you have a bank account, a job, a lease."
And, she emphasised, leave instructions for the care of pets.

The Scott's baby is well cared for by family, but Du Toit and a neighbour who runs a dog day care, Farm Girls Fourways, are trying to help the family through their turmoil by rehoming the Scotts' beloved dogs, Chance and Stella.
Stella, a white Husky, and Chance, a brown Border Collie mix, were both rescues. They were adored by Sheena, also an animal rights activist.
Farm Girl Fourways' owner Robyn Eshelby-Theart said she was happy to help her neighbour Du Toit make sure the dogs were cared for while the couple was gravely ill and would now help make sure they went to a good home.
