And still even more proof that the lockdown is a scam! Dr. Ngozi Ezike, director of Illinois Department of Public Health, said, “… if you died of clear alternative cause, but you had COVID at the same time, it’s still listed as a COVID death…”

They keep giving me more and more things to add to my list: Here are 56 reasons why I’m against the COVID-19 lockdowns

Here’s the newest one that I just found out about:

The video’s description states: (the bolding is mine)

Dr. Ngozi Ezike, director of Illinois Department of Public Health, explains how extremely broadly deaths count as a Coronavirus death.

“I just want to be clear in terms of the definition of ‘people dying of COVID.’ The case definition is very simplistic. It means, at the time of death, it was a COVID positive diagnosis. That means, that if you were in hospice and had already been given a few weeks to live, and then you also were found to have COVID, that would be counted as a COVID death. It means, technically even if you died of clear alternative cause, but you had COVID at the same time, it’s still listed as a COVID death. Everyone who is listed as a COVID death, doesn’t mean that was the cause of the death, but they had COVID at the time of death.”

How are we supposed to get good data and make good decisions in this manner? Even if the virus were entirely benign but just as transmitable we would still have a large number of deaths. Its just ludicrous.

How many deaths from all causes were there in all of the United States in March and April of 2019 compared to how many deaths from all causes in all of the United States in March and April of 2020? I’m willing to bet that there is no spike in the amount of deaths because of the covid virus. Prove me wrong.

[Catphish]

I’ve seen data that shows absolutely no increase in the overall death rate.

I’ve seen data that shows absolutely no increase in the overall death rate.

....

I’ve heard that overall deaths in the US are actually down. I think I heard Rush referencing a story on this.

A. “What happened to him?”

B. “Parachutes didn’t open.”

A. “Humm, must have been covid...”

It is becoming obvious this whole thing was a domestic and foreign concerted effort to kill trump and his re election

There are lots of stories on Chicago talk radio about people who had friends and relatives die of Covid - on paper. Some had stage 4 cancer, others had long term illness. This will come back and bite the Nursing homes and hospitals who listed Covid for every death.

Th attorneys will have a field day filing law suits! So you killed Grandpa because you didn’t treat his “Covid” illness?

I don't agree with extreme lockdown, when more modest and effective public health measures are available, but CV is not a scam.

These plots show weekly rates of deaths from all causes over several years and the current year. That sharp spike in NYC this year is due to what - more jaywalking? The tidepod fad? Some other outbreak of human idiocy?

Come on. It's a serious disease.

My brother-in-law was a “presumptive coronavirus” death. No actual tests were performed on his body. He had an inoperable cancerous brain tumor and was on hospice care.

[AndyJackson]

Prove me wrong...

Just did nationally and internatioanlly. Here is more

Now remember we took up social distancing just as this got going, so the impact was limited in the US. It could have been a lot worse.

And while I support masking, track and trace, etc. I don't support economic lockdown or prolonged general stay at home orders.

[fireman15]

Come on. It's a serious disease.

Your charts are interesting but not very meaningful. When the worldwide death rate is calculated for this year...do you think that it will be significantly different from most other years?

[fireman15]

“if you died of clear alternative cause, but you had COVID at the same time, it’s still listed as a COVID death…”

The good doctor should also mentioned that somewhere near 99% of dead bodies “presumed” to have had coronavirus were not tested.

[Reily]

The data is so corrupted you really can't say if its more deadly then the 68-69 HK flu or not.

The only things you can honestly say is

1. Its not the 18-19 Spanish flu
2. Its not the Black Plague

[AndyJackson]

These are weekly reported deaths from all causes.

Attorneys will have a field day filing law suits! So you killed Grandpa because you didn’t treat his “Covid” illness.

You gave Grampa or Gramma iv Morphine and Oxygen until they died.

When did your nursing home become a Covid-19 Hospice?

Numerous people have been questioning the credentials of Dr. Ngozi Ezike. Prior to being appointed to head the Illinois Department of Public Health, Ezike’s last political posting was as the medical chief assigned to Cook County’s juvenile detention. While she attended prestigious schools, her career track smells of political patronage.

[Gysmo]

Please tell me the comparison between March an April of last year to March and April of this year. All deaths. You still haven’t convinced me.

Can you read a graph? It’s there.
