Who said those over 70 were disposable?
The CDD website reports 164,280 deaths involving COVID19.
20,655 were 55-64 (12.57%)
34,980 were 65-74 (21.29%)
43,392 were 75-84 (26.41%)
51,719 were 85+ (31.48%)

Very few over the age of 75 are going to live “DECADES”. 57.89% of deaths were over the age of 75.

BTW, these were all deaths associated with COVID19, not just deaths caused by the virus.

What does this show?

That the virus can still be detected weeks later? I think we know that.

The tests could be too sensitive. But they weren’t designed to tell the amount of virulent virus in the body, but rather any infection at all. Seems a little late to now want the tests to tell the AMOUNT of virus.

What does this show?

It tells me that the positive numbers are being grossly exaggerated for political purposes.......Show me the numbers of people who initially tested positive then subsequent tests came up negative.

No, it is actually worse than that: Only 9800 deaths from COVID occurred in people who had no other diseases than the Wuhan flu itself.

I have no confidence in that number either. If a person gets hit by lightning or a truck there is little doubt about the cause of death. But when a person dies of pneumonia, that person could be loaded up with a whole zoo of viruses, funguses and bacteria. Was there an autopsy in each case? Did anyone conduct a census of every potential pathogen in the victim? Does every doctor or coroner that assesses a death have the same levels of skill, dedication, resources, politics, interest, ethics etc?

And then there's the federal money motivation for a corona diagnoses in many cases. The numbers are as cooked as they can be.

And unlike the flu, no one really seems to anyone who got sick from this.

Every flu season you know who is most likely to get sick in your office or you can recall who was sick the past season.

Not so with this Fauxdemic...

The speculation is from The NY Times. I don’t consider their “study” to be a credible scientific study, particularly in view of their history of fabricated stories, non existent sources and outright bias.

You’re the only person in the world who sees a global pandemic that doctors say is killing hundreds of thousands of people, and excess mortality figures showing hundreds of thousands of deaths above normal baseline, but somehow can’t connect the two.

“What caused all those excess deaths?” “Dunno.” “Maybe it was the pandemic that doctors say is killing people?” “Nah.” “Then what is it?” “It’s a mystery!”

So what you’re saying is that we can never know how anyone anywhere died, so we should just give up?

The excess mortality figures show that much.

Show me the excess mortality figures. I haven't seen them anywhere.

All of those charts are from March/April. What do the ones from August look like, hmmm? I want to see a comparison of 2020 versus 2019 versus 2018.

The left naturally wants to count everyone who has any of the germs at all in their system, even if they are not contagious and have zero symptoms. The only point of that is political.

Oh, look, a government agency has curated information for us in such a way as to drive a current conversation. What a surprise!

If you go back into the previous decades, the number of deaths was much higher. We survived.

We should resolve to die on the bad flu hill. There is no sense giving them an inch. 1918 was more than a bad flu year, because it killed people in their teens and twenties. This is just a bad flu year.

If someone misleads you 94% of the time, should you trust them on the other 6% ???

Noted.

But, that's a different article than the ones discussed here.

If it were up to me, I’d have a forensic financial audit performed on the little bastard. Trump won’t do it because he’s on a Fauci Kool Aid IV drip.
