Flubros and Flubras! Day 50 (a place for Flubros and Flubras)

It’s just the flu, bro.

Excess deaths is the total number of dead over a time period minus the normal expected number of dead for that time of year based on historical data. There are some Fearpers who post data showing that there are excess deaths in NYC and in Italy. There have been excess deaths due to CV - but these excess deaths still don’t make it rise beyond a flu season. Note that the CV deaths stats from CDC are not relevant to this - what is relevant is how many people are dying of all causes compared to how many normally die.

https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/

The CDC data is on a lag and the disclaimers say it is possible for some deaths to be 8 weeks late to make it to the data. Watching these numbers for almost 8 weeks it seems that changes to the data beyond 3 weeks appear to be immaterial. The normal number of deaths, according to the CDC, is approximately 57k per week in the USA over the time period. The maximum number of USA deaths according to worldometer occurred the week before April 11 (so we are on the downswing) - that week had 13k excess deaths. These are the numbers to watch over the coming weeks but there is still nothing to indicate that the number of excess deaths will go beyond influenza levels.

In other news...why did Governor Abbott feign outrage when a Democrat judge made a ruling that put a hairdresser in jail for refusing to close because she wanted to feed her kids? Democrats will usually rule/judge in a way that we don’t like so why pass the stupid lockdown rule to begin with? The lockdown rule was always going to be interpreted by Dems in a way that is tyrannical. Abbott should be held responsible for his stupid executive order.

What makes me weary is how many fake constitution conservatives reside on FR. They spend all of their energy promoting the MSM propaganda while our constitution and economy dissolve.

it’s only going to get worse before it gets better, it will be years before this over, and that really sux.

You sound pretty scared. Better get under the bed and do exactly what the government tells you.

Yeah. There is a FEARper who whenever you question his hand wringing either says you are pissing on the grave of the dead Americans from
CoVId or says may the piss of the dead Americans be upon you for daring to question him

He seems to be quite intrigued with urine. He has made bizarre comments to other people on the thread like saying madame was going to send him a cheap hooker. He is very shall we say fixated on what appears to be bizarre sexual proclivities.

I went to the dentist yesterday. They had masks and gloves on, the big pansies. Oh wait, they always wear those.

Not scared at all, your projection of that onto me and your conclusion shows that you are. I merely conveyed where I think these numbers are going, I think I am correct, the numbers right now say I am. If that scares you I’m sorry.

I’m merely facing the truth of the situation

“””That’s two and a haffast.”””


The sound of two buns clapping, or dat haffast going down a slide sideways?
Jar lid too tight? Handy.
Probably
