It’s just the flu, bro.
Herd immunity building way faster than experts predict.
Cause of death being falsely attributed to Corona.
Civil liberties are being stripped away - especially in Dem states/cities.
Number dead will be way under the number dead from flu when this is over.
Italy
psyops
Honestly, would you be surrendering so much liberty if a dem were president?
Actually, it has. It is comparable in transmissibility to its benign cold virus cousins, and the death rate in those infected is nearly 5%. In addition, no one has any previous immunity, so without control measures, it will spread rapidly. Thus, it exhibits behaviors that have long been identified as those of pandemic capable pathogens. The number of new cases continues to grow exponentially.
Candace Owens is great to follow on Twitter for all the skeptics of COVID-19 reporting out there. She is showing how flu and pneumonia death statistics are dropping during these months of COVID-19 compared to prior years. Which suggests flu deaths are being counted as COVID-19 deaths.
“In January, California hit 493 pneumonia deaths a week. By mid-march, they reported just 282 weekly deaths from pneumonia.”
“Here is chart of TOTAL weekly deaths in NYC this year, by the week. This reveals that death totals have LOWERED in the city since the pandemic. “
She also showed that CBS News used footage of a hospital in Italy when claiming NY hospitals were overwhelmed.
I also believe I read that Italy is NOT testing the dead for COVID-19. So a lot of deaths there are being lumped in with COVID-19 without proof.
So any fans of this thread, definitely follow Candace Owens on Twitter.

Are you claiming that in Italy they are attributing COVID-19 for deaths where it wasn't the causative factor?
5%? LOL. The death rate is between 1-2% at the most. It seems to be about 1.6% in South Korea precisely because they did more testing. When you only test the people who show up deathly ill at the hospital, of course your death rate is going to come out higher. But the real death rate has to be based on EVERYBODY who gets the virus. So it’s almost certain that the real death rate is lower than every single death rate reported so far. But South Korea is likely to be the closest to the real rate.
The “exponential” growth just isn’t happening. The pattern everywhere is that this thing spikes at a certain point and then levels off and drops. It’s already happening in Washington state as it has in many other countries who had it earlier. What seems to be happening is that infection truly is widespread, but severely underreported. And the virus is vastly more harmless than we even realize. And the herd immunity gets built up just as rapidly as the virus spreads.
I never used Twitter to validate the causes of deaths in Italy.
Too bad. Twitter can link you to a lot of articles filled with proven facts.
I bet

“in Italy, Covid-19 is listed as the cause of death even if a patient was already ill and died from a combination of illnesses.”
“Only 12 per cent of death certificates have shown a direct causality from coronavirus,” said the scientific adviser to Italy’s minister of health last week.”

“...and the death rate in those infected is nearly 5%. “
Yes, 5%, we’re being buried under statistics instead of corpses, I get that, but where are the piled burning corpses? This is an epidemic of statistics. Me? I want to see an actual problem before I light my hair on fire and run around screaming. Statistics, only, supporting a sense of urgency are empty. In this day of instant international travel this virus had all the time a real killer would need.

The plain meaning of words is being turned upside down.
Quarentine is what is done when infected persons are locked away to prevent them from spreading the infection to others.
It is not the isolation of the “healthy community”.
Which brings me to the concept of “herd immunity”. Herd immunity is what is developed as the “herd” is exposed to a contagion, and, over time, through the battling of the contagion and the attrition of those who fell to the disease, the herd will have developed a general immunity.
If one were to expose one “herd”, and isolate another, both herds should emerge healthy, ultimately. But that second herd will have developed no immunity, and will be just as susceptible as before.
Because he knows something you don’t.
