It’s just the flu, bro.

So many people over 65 have learned a lot about heath and nutrition as a result of this Coronavirus fauxdemic. The increase in vitamin D levels alone may lead to an increase in longevity. This may go down as the first “pandemic” that fuels an increase in longevity, as opposed to a drop in life expectancy. This might not kick in right away, unfortunately, as governments are busy making it difficult for people to receive their routine health care as a result of Coronavirus lockdown rules.

Article above is somewhat related to the longevity views in previous paragraph.

Dailymail is trash - but they are getting the word out about nutrition and Coronavirus. The key point here is they are getting good nutrition advice out - the Coronavirus part is secondary. Things that prevent Coronavirus also prevent other causes of death, and this is what will help increase longevity over time.

Great post.

Fake MDs will have us living in as much fear as the Democrats. Or, demanding that everyone take an unnecessary vaccine.

If I get hit by a meteorite or a drunk driver and need to be put back together, I definitely want conventional trauma medicine on the case, so long as they don’t demand my vaccination status at time of admission.

In early June I had hip replacement surgery. The doctor’s nutrition protocol for his patients is to take certain supplements daily for at least a month before surgery, and then for at least a month after. The main one that he said I absolutely could not skip was D3.

I’m not sure of the connection between WuFlu and orthopedic surgery, but I felt so good on the list of vitamins that I’ve maintained the same regimen. Haven’t had any flu, cold, etc. (knock wood), either.

Meanwhile who can confirm (calculations) that with 289,000 Covid-assigned deaths in the US (of case confirmed deaths) out of 15,000,000 confirmed cases (using rounded figures) then the CFR is 1.92 for the US (meaning the recovery rate for Covid is over 98%)? Math had never been my strong suit as they say.

There are a lot of "fact checker" pages denying that the recovery rate for Covid is 98%, but which use the case fatality rate (CFR) yet if the above is correct then the Covid-19 recovery rate is still very high. Including estimated infected persons (infection fatality rate) would lower the fatality rate even more. .

For as ourworldindata.org states,

In the media, it is often the “case fatality rate” that is talked about when the risk of death from COVID-19 is discussed.1 This measure is sometimes called case fatality risk or case fatality ratio, or CFR. But this is not the same as the risk of death for an infected person – even though, unfortunately, journalists often suggest that it is. It is relevant and important, but far from the whole story.

The CFR is very easy to calculate. You take the number of people who have died, and you divide it by the total number of people diagnosed with the disease. So if 10 people have died, and 100 people have been diagnosed with the disease, the CFR is [10 / 100], or 10%.

What we want to know isn’t the case fatality rate: it’s the infection fatality rate. The IFR is the number of deaths from a disease divided by the total number of cases...

Some doctors say it isn’t COVID killing people, it is seasonal influenza; doing this year, what it does at this time every year.

This is now officially my favorite daily FR thread.

Can we continue even if cv19 goes away? Which it never will.
