12,433 dead of the China flu only.
40 more than yesterday.
Meanwhile, 139 died of kidney disease.
401 died of stroke.
And some bot named K**** is psychologically attached to fearmongering.
After Nashville got caught manipulating numbers, how can you take ANY COVID stats seriously? Lord knows how many OTHER cities are playing this game? Hundreds of business ruined; thousands thrown out of work...
So, a question for the assembled people who have been tracking this for now 6 months.
“IF” the Wuhan Flu is more contagious than the “normal flu” (or a normal cold”), and IF the masks and IF “distancing” and IF “shutting down the economy” reduces the Wuhan Flu infection rates, then should not the death rates from normal infections, and normal flu have done down dramatically the past 6 months?
Instead, all I see is a stunning rise in “non-associated deaths” - as if the stress and worries and strain of isolation and worry and job loss and retirement loss (and isolation and continuous-death-in-the-air” TV news 24x7x180 days) have nothing to do with the democrat party’s endless flu fixations and predictions?
Meaning about half of positives are among those deficient in Vitamin D, and likely only about 10% are infectious, and those who are no longer are after 7-10 days after experiencing symptoms, while about 80% have no symptoms or recover without outside medical help, and only about 2% of cases are among those under 18.
203,824 TOTAL DEAD
Meaning the US finally has attained to the rough equivalent of the deaths attribute to the Asian flu of 57–59, but which did not see anything close to the response COVID-19 has, and which is primarily due to over 40% of Americans being obese, plus hypertension - both of which the shutdown increases.
And as a percentage, the overall lethality of Covid-19 is about 0.1% to 0.3% (IFR) and thus in the range of a severe influenza season, and while an estimated 1,200 children died in the 2012-2013 flu season only 75 children have died due to COVID-19 (reported July 22) and only 20 children under age five in the U.S. have died because of it, while the vast majority of children with severe COVID tend to have other risk factors
Meanwhile elder care facilities account for over 40% of US Covid-19 deaths which only 0.6% of the country resides in. And almost 90 percent of U.S. coronavirus patients who have been hospitalized had underlying health problems, or comorbidities. As of 8–22, for 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned. For deaths with conditions or causes in addition to COVID-19, on average, there were 2.6 additional conditions or causes per death. And people under 65 years old without underlying predisposing conditions accounted for only 0.7–3.6% of all COVID-19 deaths in France, Italy, Netherlands, Sweden, Georgia, and New York City and 17.7% in Mexico.[49] Moreover, adults 65 and older account for 16% of the US population but 80% of COVID-19 deaths in the US, somewhat higher than their share of deaths from all causes (75%) over the same period.
