Kirk... "Was it Covid-19?"
Bones... "If you want it to be Jim... I can call it anything you like, I'm the doctor."
Wow, they just want to keep spreading the panic, don’t they?
Everything else I’ve heard is that the deaths are over counted.
Considering how much they are trying to take down Trump, I would trust the claims of over counting more than undercounting, especially considering the source.
Same reason as always for CNN: Orange Man Bad
Wow! That’s scary. We should shelter in place until there are no deaths for any reason.
JUST
MAKE
IT
STOP
“Is that true, or did you hear it on CNN?”
Enemies of the people.
What a pant load.
“In March, the CDC introduced a new code to accurately capture mortality due to Covid-19 on death certificates.”
Clowns
Yer lookin the books
Well, we all knew that this article would be written and published just in time to scare the bejesus out of us.
We were becoming too relaxed, too optimistic, and we can’t have that.
CNN to the rescue right on time.
THEIR MESSAGE:
YOU ARE ALL GOING TO DIE AND THE SOONER THE BETTER.
Do you get the feeling that CNN has become something more than just a television channel?
“He died of covid!!”
“Did he suffer?”
“Not much, it was over the instant he pulled the trigger “
There... Fixed it.
BTW - The 3% death totals mentioned with regards to the Spanish flu refers to 3% of the worlds population at that time... Roughly 50 to 60 million deaths in 1919.... Today's equivalent number would be 228,000,000 million deaths.
Hysterical people need to get a grip and put this 'pandemic' into perspective... This is nothing more than a 'worse than' normal flu season and several of these deaths being recorded as covid-19 are likely normal flu deaths.
If they subtracted the non-covid deaths from the covid-19 death totals... The numbers are much less than advertised. They need to keep the numbers up to justify the destruction of economy... But they'll need to count more creatively if they want to get to 228 million.
Kirk... "Was it Covid-19?"
Bones... "If you want it to be Jim... I can call it anything you like, I'm the doctor."
The counts not only appear to be overinflated, it appears they are intentionally so.
CNN is ATT
ATT despises you!
“Damn it! We are NOT seeing enough death! If we can’t scare people sufficiently, the economy is going to come back, and Drumpf is going to be re-elected! You! Write something about how the death tally is too low!” — imagined conversation at CNN
Quick,quick. We need another lie to spread to the sheople to feed them in their shit sandwich.
Gotta keep the BS smelling for as long as possible...
How Honest Is Our Covid Fatality Count? Take Minnesota As a Disturbing Example 4/8/2020, 8:58:22 PM · by SeekAndFind · 30 replies Powerline Blog ^ | 04/08/2020 | John Hinderaker Dr. Scott Jensen is both a physician and a Minnesota state senator. Yesterday he was interviewed by a local television station and dropped a bombshell: he, and presumably all other Minnesota doctors, got a seven-page letter from the Minnesota Department of Health that gave guidance on how to classify COVID-19 deaths. The letter said that if a patient died of, e.g., pneumonia, and was believed to have been exposed to COVID-19, the death certificate should say that COVID-19 was the cause of death even though the patient was never tested, or never tested positive, for that disease.
The federal government is classifying the deaths of patients infected with the coronavirus as COVID-19 deaths, regardless of any underlying health issues that could have contributed to the loss of someone’s life.
Dr. Deborah Birx, the response coordinator for the White House coronavirus task force, said the federal government is continuing to count the suspected COVID-19 deaths, despite other nations doing the opposite.
“There are other countries that if you had a pre-existing condition, and let’s say the virus caused you to go to the ICU [intensive care unit] and then have a heart or kidney problem,” she said during a Tuesday news briefing at the White House. “Some countries are recording that as a heart issue or a kidney issue and not a COVID-19 death.
“The intent is … if someone dies with COVID-19, we are counting that,” she added. - https://thehayride.com/2020/04/confirmed-theyre-inflating-wuhan-virus-death-rates-nationally/
the CDC allows some leeway in assigning the cause of death: “COVID-19 should be reported on the death certificate for all decedents where the disease caused or is assumed to have caused or contributed to death [emp. by CDC].” “the rules for coding and selection of the underlying cause of death are expected to result in COVID-19 being the underlying cause more often than not.” (https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvss/coronavirus/Alert-2-New-ICD-code-introduced-for-COVID-19-deaths.pdf)
Dr. Anthony Fauci... admitted that seven out of eight deaths attributed to the virus were really caused by one or more other comorbidities. In other words, the patient was on death’s door whether the virus got to them or not.
Dr. Deborah Birx, who everybody seems to like because she dresses so well, admitted those death totals are inflated as a matter of policy.
The same issue is related to the number of deaths in Italy which is attributed to Covid-19. According to Prof Walter Ricciardi, scientific adviser to Italy’s minister of health:
“On re-evaluation by the National Institute of Health, only 12 per cent of death certificates have shown a direct causality from coronavirus, while 88 per cent of patients who have died have at least one pre-morbidity - many had two or three,” he says. (Why have so many coronavirus patients died in Italy (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/science-and-disease/have-many-coronavirus-patients-died-italy/)
OMG, another reason it is worse than we imagined! We are all going to die!
Swine flu has killed up to 17,000 in U.S.: report
...The CDC and the World Health Organization stopped trying to count all the actual cases months ago, once it became clear that H1N1 was a pandemic that would infect millions.
Is the WuFlu being counted differently than Swine Flu? If so why?
