Why Is Desperately Poor India Beating New York’s COVID-19 Response?
American Greatness ^ | August 11, 2020 | Adam Mill

Posted on 08/12/2020 3:23:42 PM PDT by CheshireTheCat

New York spends more money per capita on healthcare than any other state in the Union. It ranks third in the country in physicians per 100,000 population at 375.1. In terms of raw infrastructure and medical resources, New York should have been one of the best places in the world to receive treatment for COVID-19.

Yet analysis of New York’s COVID-19 statistics reveal it to be one of the most deadly places in the world for a COVID-19 patient. Consider that the tiny country of San Marino reports the worst “deaths per 1 million population” for COVID-19 at 1,238 per million. Belgium, which is the second worst, reports 852. New York is a disaster compared to even those grim numbers. New York is second in the nation at 1,688 deaths per million. If it were a country, it would lead the world.

The numbers don’t lie. New York should be the poster child of what not to do. Because whatever it’s doing to respond to COVID-19, it’s not saving lives.

Dr. Anthony Fauci somehow learned the opposite lesson from these morbid statistics. He said, “Many parts of the United States didn’t do enough to combat the coronavirus—but New York state did . . . New York got hit worse than any place in the world. And they did it correctly by doing things [that are recommended to fight the disease].” One of those recommendations was to ban or severely restrict the use of hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19. This ban came quickly in response to President Trump endorsing the drug.

India, many warned, would become a humanitarian disaster. With a population density of over 75,000 people per square mile in Mumbai, for example, it triples the density of Manhattan, New York. India has only 0.9 doctors per 100,000 population....

If a country's status--1st world, 2nd world/emerging, 3rd world-- were measured not by economic factors, but by the collective wisdom of its people and leaders, the U.S. would not even be a 5th world country.

No Cuomo. No DeBlasio. No Fauci. No Birx.
See a pattern here?

Without reading the whole article, it’s because Cuomo turned old folks homes into death camps.

India’s deaths per million population is an astonishing 33 (compared to New York’s 1,688).

Well, India didn't have a collective meltdown when Trump endorsed hydrochloroquinine, so they were able to use it to save lives. They also didn't have Andrew Cuomo herding COVID-19 patients into nursing homes with the elderly.

Because India didn’t politicize treatment and used hydroxychloroquine to treat people early so they mostly all recovered while in the USA the dems got it banned for all intents and purposes just to poke Trump in the eye, and so people died. Simple.

India has also approached the use of hydroxychloroquine differently. In June, the journal Nature warned that India was ignoring “safety concerns” over hydroxychloroquine. Noting a study in the Lancet, the journal warned, “that the drug offered no treatment benefit, and that people who took it were more likely to die than those who didn’t.” But the authors were forced to correct the Nature article when the authors of the Lancet study withdrew it after questions emerged about the data.

Nature further warned, “Despite the lack of clear evidence that the drug is safe or protects people from coronavirus infection, on 22 May an Indian health ministry task force released the advice for front-line workers, including the police and people conducting door-to-door surveys to estimate the COVID-19 burden to take hydroxychloroquine to prevent infection. The advice expands on a similar recommendation, made in March, in which the task force said that health-care workers caring for people with COVID-19, and household contacts of people with confirmed COVID-19, should also take the drug.”

Everyone stop. I don’t give a damn about the ChiCom flu. I was only busting on Cuomo. I am sorry I wasted you time writing your replies.

Because India has a younger population, and anti-malarials are part of life.

Probably the HCQ use is the major reason. Here are two more possibilities.

The USA has the highest obesity rate in the world except for a few small island nations. India has almost the lowest obesity rate. There are many comorbidities that accompany obesity.

If vitamin D has anything to do with recovering or dying from Covid19, it is very sunny in India. The US population has a large percentage of vitamin D deficient people.

Africa and India have really low cases because people built up immunity towards disease through washing and bathing in sh*t in streams.

Kids in the US are not even allowed to drink water from a hose anymore.

Also Africa median age is 20 and they are not obese like Americans. Fact. Young people don’t get it or at least don’t die from it.

And forbad the use of hydroxychloroquine.

Let’s not blame all our leaders for the malevolent evil of the left.

I've been asking that since the 'pandemic' began.

Why aren't we seeing uncontrollable outbreaks in traditionally poor nations in Africa, India, Central America?

If I were a conspiracy minded person I might believe either we're being lied to about the severity of cases in the US or people are deliberately spreading the disease in the US.

Remember when the Chinese chick showed up with a flash drive at Mar a Lago?

What kind of 'virus' was on the flash drive?

It would be easy to deliberately cause an outbreak anywhere.
