How does this factor into the numbers

CDC revising DOWNWARD the corona virus death count by about 40% to 37K?

It factors in where it always should have. We all knew there
were games being played. This is how you eliminate those
games.

You look at the death certificates and make an honest
evaluation. You don’t just say, “Oops, too bad about the
kidneys, another COVID-19 victim.”

I’m pretty tough on the CDC for not getting ready when it
knew this was coming. This doesn’t bother me so much.

It’s them coming along and doing something they should do.

When things are reported to you, you take the reports at
face value. Then later on you try to verify what is
being reported to you. When you can’t, you make it public.

Does this give the folks who want to reopen more ammo?
Sure it does. The mortality rates are much lower than we
were told they were going to be, by people who were told
themselves the rates would be astronomical.

This is why YOU NEVER buy into all the hype up front.

Every little video clip from China that showed something
bad was thought of by some as “having to be true”. Well
we sure didn’t see the sorts of things they supposedly
did.

All the hype did was make our leaders afraid not to go
ballistic about preventative measures.

The next one of these to come along, I hope a lot of people
will tell the worry warts to shut the hell up.

People had no idea if what they were scaring everyone with
was true or not. It really screwed us all over in the end.

Our leaders had no choice with the public scared to death.

No, it’s not exactly the flue. Still, just like many of
us said, the numbers look a lot like flu numbers, and we
don’t shut down for the flu.

I’ve been willing to play devil’s advocate. What if we
open up and many more die. It’s a fair question. If the
37,000 figure is accurate, we should open up.

This is nonsensical at this point
