Just one fifth of the weekly rise in Covid inpatients was caused by people admitted to hospital because of the virus, figures suggest. The most up-to-date NHS data show that on December 21, there were 6,245 beds occupied by coronavirus patients in English hospitals - an increase of 259 from the previous week. But within that increase, just 45 patients were admitted because of the virus, with the remaining 214 in hospital for other conditions but having also tested positive - so called “incidental Covid” admissions. Proportion of increase in Covid inpatients being driven by true Covid cases
Critics of the data say it is wrong to include incidental figures in the daily updates of admissions and patient totals, as they can include someone with a broken leg who has just also tested positive on admission, but may be completely asymptomatic. 'Not the same disease we were seeing a year ago' The growing prevalence of omicron in the community also means that there are far more people likely to test positive on entering hospital, compared to during previous waves. Overall, nearly 30 per cent of people currently in hospital with Covid are “incidental” cases - 1,813 out of 6,245 - the highest it has been since the NHS started releasing the figures in the summer. The number of incidental Covid cases has been rising in recent weeks because omicron is far more infectious than delta, meaning that many people will be entering hospital unknowingly infected. In the previous week, December 7 to December 14 - when [SNIP] Experts said it was important to treat the current hospital data with caution, while Sir John Bell, regius professor of medicine at Oxford University, said: “This is not the same disease we were seeing a year ago.

Here’s how to tell the difference between flu, common cold and COVID-19

“Doctors admit it’s confusing. [!] Symptoms are similar: body aches, fever, chills, feeling fatigued, congestion, coughing and sneezing.
“”There’s no way to know whether somebody has a cold, the flu, COVID without a test,” said Dr. Allison Arwady of the Chicago Department of Public Health.”

And which test can be truster at this point to give a correct result?
Big difference between “OF” and “WITH”

***************
Suppose you test positive with no symptoms and then independently catch a cold. Chances are that the hospital will admit you for covid “treatment” — and collect big money from the government for doing this.
Just stunning how the flu is suddenly “back” after being almost non-existent during 2020.
Isn’t it?
Not enough to maintain the scam.
The fake tests make it look like everyone has covid.
Well, that can’t be; just ask the FReeper vaccine believers, here.
More backpedaling.
Little by little, bit by bit, a little here, a little there, and before you know it, Covid is no longer an issue.
Watch, within a couple months, this whole thing will be just like a bad dream. Just in time for midterms.
And syill get paid big bucks for trying to kill you.
In a related story, almost none of the witches hanged in Salem were "real" witches.
Regards,
I know of four people who were in the hospital for various things, not COVID, and later found that they were coded as COVID.
Since hospitals are paid extra for every COVID case; is it possible that people being admitted to hospitals are actually infected with the disease? If a hospital were to have a mild variant of COVID; which posed no real health risk; and they receive large payments from the government for every COVID patient admitted; is the medical establishment above suspicion?
