Our Most Reliable Pandemic Number Is Losing Meaning
A new study suggests that almost half of those hospitalized with COVID-19 have mild or asymptomatic cases.
...
From the start, COVID hospitalizations have served as a vital metric for tracking the risks posed by the disease. Last winter, this magazine described it as “the most reliable pandemic number,” ... On the one hand, death counts offer finality, but they’re a lagging signal and don’t account for people who suffered from significant illness but survived. Case counts, on the other hand, depend on which and how many people happen to get tested. Presumably, hospitalization numbers provide a more stable and reliable gauge of the pandemic’s true toll, in terms of severe disease. But a new, nationwide study of hospitalization records, released as a preprint today, suggests that the meaning of this gauge can easily be misinterpreted—and that it has been shifting over time.
...
The study found that from March 2020 through early January 2021—before vaccination was widespread, and before the Delta variant had arrived—the proportion of patients with mild or asymptomatic disease was 36 percent. From mid-January through the end of June 2021, however, that number rose to 48 percent. In other words, the study suggests that roughly half of all the hospitalized patients showing up on COVID-data dashboards in 2021 may have been admitted for another reason entirely, or had only a mild presentation of disease.
This increase was even bigger for vaccinated hospital patients, of whom 57 percent had mild or asymptomatic disease. But unvaccinated patients have also been showing up with less severe symptoms, on average, than earlier in the pandemic: The study found that 45 percent of their cases were mild or asymptomatic since January 21.

For sure. If this article is true, makes you wonder how many of the unvaxxed are mild as well, not that they’d ever admit it.
Another possibility this is the new narrative because they can no longer hide the rise of hospitalizations of vaxxed. I know in my state the rate of hospitalizations and deaths are practically the same for both vaxxed and unvaxxed (if you can believe their data).
NYS has always counted asymptomatics, probables, and repeat positives of the same patient as new cases.
And we’re not the only state doing that.
The stats have always been crap.
More than likely they are going to the hospital for something unrelated, the hospital finds out they are unvaxed so they get tested. When they test positive they are hustled off to the covid ward with nary a symptom.
If the hospital finds out they are vaxed, they don’t usually test. “Pandemic of the unvaxed!”
The Vax does not work.
Everybody will be infected sooner or later. We need to treat this Covid disease the same way malaria is treated.
Roll out the Ivermectin Therapy!

Ivermectin is no longer a banned treatment by the CDC. They are just “not recommending” it.
You will need over the counter Zinc, Vitamin D and Quercetin supplements.

********************************
There is reasonably solid evidence that ivermectin docks to the spike protein itself to prevent binding to the ACE2 receptor which is the primary pathology causing the tissue damage and clots related to SARS-CoV-2. Therefore, this is also an implication that this ability of ivermectin to disable the binding of the Spike protein including the vaccine-produced spike proteins. This binding of ivermectin to disable the spike protein is also preserved even with the newer spike protein mutations, but its activity against the original Wuhan spike protein,(the one vaccines were designed to produce) is fairly well studied at this point.
Abstract:
Background/Aim: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). One drug that has attracted interest is the antiparasitic compound ivermectin, a macrocyclic lactone derived from the bacterium Streptomyces avermitilis. We carried out a docking study to determine if ivermectin might be able to attach to the SARS-CoV-2 spike receptor-binding domain bound with ACE2. Materials and Methods: We used the program AutoDock Vina Extended to perform the docking study. Results: Ivermectin docked in the region of leucine 91 of the spike and histidine 378 of the ACE2 receptor. The binding energy of ivermectin to the spike-ACE2 complex was -18 kcal/mol and binding constant was 5.8 e-08. Conclusion: The ivermectin docking we identified may interfere with the attachment of the spike to the human cell membrane. Clinical trials now underway should determine whether ivermectin is an effective treatment for SARS-Cov2 infection.
The following video explains the multiple mechanisms of the activity of Ivermectin including the ability of the body to maintain its basic defense of the cell nucleus in preserving the body’s ability to produce antiviral proteins, inhibition of RNA dependant RNA polymerase which inhibits the replication of viral RNA (possibly including that from the mRNA vaccine package), the stat 3 human signaling pathway which inhibits the production of blood clots also possibly mitigating some of the vaccines most dangerous side effects. Also discussed is the inhibition of the CD147 pathway by ivermectin which again may block the clumping of platelets due to spike protein either from the virus or possibly the vaccines.
Note: Ivermectin therapy likley will gradually rid the body of spike proteins altogether, something to remember for those who might have residual side effects from mRNA vaccine.
Agreed, but if I thought I could be saved, I’d go.
Thanks for the info. Thoughts on HCQ effectiveness and sources?
Well, the whole operation is to kill off the majority of us. Pure evil has enveloped the world.
Although I have been closely tracking and logging the JHU COVID 19 data since 1/21/2020 (just passed 600 days of data) I do not trust a single line.Bring Out Your DeadUntil COVID "Cases" never included anyone without symptoms.
Until COVID "Diagnosis" were never based on a test deliberately cycled up into a very high false positive rate, often in the total absence of symptoms.
Until COVID "Deaths" were people who died OF a disease, not people who died WITH that disease.
Until COVID Hospitals were never paid any bounty for reporting cases of a specific disease, let alone handsomely rewarded for certain treatments of any disease.
Until COVID case and fatality data seldom spiked of Fridays, to be panic reported right before the weekend, only to be quietly retracted over the weekend.
Until COVID we actully had a flu season, there were essentially zero flu cases last flu season (its worth noting that the over-cycled PCR "Gold Standard" COVID test is incapable of distinguishing between COVID and the flu!).
Until COVID new epidemic strains of diseases were named after their point of origin (or in some cases, such as Spanish Flu, or Marburg Hemorrhagic fever, where they were first described) COVID both originated in and was first described in Wuhan China, at the gates of a PLA run virlogy lab. No one can say that out loud!
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
The false positive rate was 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
Quarantine the sick. Protect the vulnerable. Hang the guilty. Free everyone else.
You just put into words what has been going through my mind since this thing started. Little by little, it has been coming together but I had no way to articulate it. Until now.
Thanks, Nully!
‘Face

The data started to show an uptick in recoveries a month before, can't have that!
Or the narrative is breaking down, and a new one is being made.
My guess is this.
A lot of people with the vax are getting sick. Hospitalized numbers typically lag a bit, but the raw data is showing an increase in the vaxed in the hospital. So they are prepping “Well, it is pretty mild hospitalization!”
That is my guess, and only a guess. But with the overseas numbers showing that to be frank the vax is leaky and best, to many people are saying “Hey, I am in the hospital but I am double vaxed!”
Israel’s little shell game of “Well, you are no longer vaxed because you don’t have n+1 jabs!” isn’t working out so well in PR.
Fear for one.
And doc’s are pushing early admittance for several good reasons. For instance getting ahead of the symptoms.
When I had my vid, it was “Call us if you lips turn blue”.
Oh, and walk outside for 30 minutes.
I WAS going to get Ziverdo till they wanted a bank transfer...
Hospitalizing patients with mild symptoms to jack the numbers.
What a surprise.
All the sudden, about the 4th of July weekend the (blue +) daily rate points start wildly bouncing around the (green ▲) 7 day rolling average points...
The entire country has been asleep for years. Payback is a bitch.
They’re going to make sure we pay for trying to hang onto the Constitution.
Nothing like playing with the facts...

Second best.
4th wave is in decline and we will have herd immunity in a month or so: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailycases
