The health experts and the media propagating viral panic porn think people like us dont understand arithmetic. They think they can manipulate headline stories warning of increased cases of COVID-19 in order to push more lockdowns, ignoring all the ways that more cases are being discovered, while the percentage of positive tests, new hospitalizations and deaths, and the lethality of the virus are all waning significantly.
Arizonas COVID-19 spread is alarming and action is needed, experts warn, read the title of an Arizona Republic article.....
...As is always the case, there is a grain of truth that is hugely distorted by numerous obfuscations of important facts and context. The truth is that new hospitalizations of people coming in for serious coronavirus infections are actually extremely low.

“As is always the case, there is a grain of truth ... “
For all the talk about “The Big Lie,” I’ve found that it’s the half-truths and quarter-truths that are even more dangerous.
It’s the ‘Rona shell game.
It’s Daniel Horowitz, Senior Editor at Conservative Review.
David Horowitz is head of FrontPage Mag, and is a legend in exposing the ultraLeftists particularly the Black Panthers who murdered a friend of his. Horowitz was a Red Diaper baby both parents Communists, and he re-analyzed his Leftist views and pals and came up with how wrong they were— human abuse at an extreme..Communist nihilists. And David Horowitz speaking at University took a lot of abuse from student idiots— paving the way for other Conservatives to speak (and be abused) but showed them the way.
Daniel is great in this article and also about the monumental error of SCOTUS yesterday re-writing the 1965 Civil Rights Act..just like that to extend to LMNOPQRStuv gays, queers, lesbians and trannies—(unheard of invented rights on the basis of their choice in sexual partners and their alteration of the exterior gender they portray— not on the basis of their actual chromosomal sex as the determinant).
Also ICU use is up because of more elective heart procedures...if you have any heart surgery, you will be visiting the ICU afterwards for at least a few days
I was talking to an RN from AZ today and she told me hospitals are full, the virus IS the reason, that we should be alarmed.
I don’t know what to believe.
They will NEVER, EVER get the American public to agree to another shutdown/quarantine again!
EVER!
The military has a meme that you have to have the big picture. People in the trenches usually are not very good at that. One hospital, or one ward, can be real busy and the folks working that unit think the world is coming to an end. No offense but the opinion of one nurse about the whole state is pretty meaningless.
The “new” SCOTUS.....now that’s another story :(
I can only hope this has opened DJT’s eyes re: his SC appointments.....more Alito/ Thomas clones.
We’ve been riding a razor’s edge since the 2000 recount, with a short respite prior to 9/11-—riding the slimmest of margins on this vote or that, on this majority or that.
The battle continues.
If you dig into Horowitz’ report, the data (from the official website) is broken down and explained.
Yes, there are a good share of hospitalizations, but few are BECAUSE of Covid, but many come in WITH Covid. Big difference. It’s all explained.
The health care professionals are petitioning the Gov. here for greater cautions, policies.
“I was talking to an RN from AZ today and she told me hospitals are full, the virus IS the reason, that we should be alarmed.
I dont know what to believe.”
From the Arizona Department Health Services.
In Yavapai County (Prescott, Prescott Valley, Sedona, etc.) there are 7 current hospitalizations due to COVID-19. That’s among 235,000 residents and three hospitals with about 350 total beds.
Talked to my nurse neighbor yesterday that said hospitals here still are empty in the D.C. suburbs.
Good link—there has been a mild upward trend in total hospital usage.
That is a better number to watch, since it avoids debates about CV or not CV.
If CV is serious is the state, the trend will be obvious.
Theyve got all summer to fine tune the virus. If its bad enough people will fold.
Mail-in voting is the goal of the left.
As are seventh-truths and tenth-truths. In other words, these are mostly lies, but people believe them nonetheless. They are all dangerous. Your point is well taken.
First, find out if shes a Democrat. Then if shes a Republican or Independent, find out if shes a Fearbro.
I just read that dexamethasone, another cheap drug, saves Covid patients.
Fingers crossed on this one....DjT hasn’t endorsed it, so Fauxi might give it a fast track......although I’m very suspicious that Big Pharma ash-canned HCQ for $ and may do so again.
Forgot to mention....many of the AZ cases are on our Indian reservations, not in metro areas.
