This showed up on my daily Weather Channel update this morning. Somehow, I think somebody's numbers must be a bit off.

Well now that they are including anyone who dies of pneumonia as being implicitly having Covid-19 without any testing,the death toll is all bullsh*t. This whole scam is bullsh*t. All to get rid of Trump and conservatism worldwide. Hitler and Stalin live and they are entrenched in the media and deep state government.

IM(not so)HO, the communist Left WANTS to see as high a death # as possible to serve their subversive agenda/s.

Think about their actions all along through this and posit a theory that makes more sense, ticks more boxes, etc.

The maggots’ heroes are Stalin, Mao, Castro, Guevera, et al.

Weather channel is an arm of the libtards. They’re hoping and wishing upon a Star for 10,000+ deaths today. Soon they’ll go back to selling retarded Americans on global change again

A week ago Dr Doom predicted at least 100,000 NEW deaths over the next two weeks. That means as of today there should have been 50,000 NEW deaths over the last week. Now there maybe 10,000 total. “Dr” Fauci was not a little bit wrong he was completely wrong. The economy was turned into Chernobyl based upon this guys recommendations. How about one just one reporter ask the rat mole about this?

I have yet to find a single person who wants to willingly catch CV and get it over with. Why is that? will you? The chance of dying from CV are 1 in 50. Are those not good odds in your favor? The chance of dying from the flu is 1 in 50,000. So maybe it isn’t just the flu after all.

Cumulative. Even so, how many died “of” covid, vs how many died “with” it from other causes. Whatever causes the most alarm.

I saw on Fox News yesterday that the number was over 9707. Seems they scaled down the numbers.

I don’t want to catch ANYTHING on purpose. But that doesn’t mean I shut down my lifestyle.

And the 1 in 50 ratio is a useless statistic. What if I’m 20 and very healthy? What if I’m 70 and sick already? What if I take HDX, z-pac and Zinc? Nobody that takes that before they are already really sick has died (that I’m aware of).

And this has WHAT to do with the weather, exactly?

How many have died from conventional flu this flu season?

Maybe they are counting every death for today and many days before...

The Weather Channel is as correct about Wu Flu deaths as it is about climate change predictions.

Not exactly a Mensa collection there.

And where are you getting the 2% mortality rate from anyway? Consider this: California has twice the population of New York, yet only has 10.6% as many cases (13K v 122K,) and 7.7% as many fatalities (319 v. 4159.) yet we have dense population centers and vast numbers of homeless. Combined with cold and wet weather in recent weeks, people should be dropping like flies out here and they’re not. Why? Because, as has been theorized, we had an undetected first wave come through in the first quarter that people chalked up to a very bad case of the flu. Plus the vast majority of people who contract it stay asymptomatic. That population won’t be known until antibody testing becomes widespread. The unreported cases are vastly higher, and the mortality is going to come in well under 1%

Completely agree!

I bristle at “case” number graphs. If you test the population to see how many people have teeth, every day the number of people confirmed to have teeth goes up. It doesn’t mean more people have teeth. It means more people have been tested and confirmed to have teeth.

What would be at least a little more reasonable with the case numbers is what percentage of the people tested every day tested positive. And were they already symptomatic. Frankly, only a “random test” giving percentages would be of much use.

What really matters is the death count. That measures the frequency of an actual event.

I think they mean in total, not just for today. I’ve been keeping a spreadsheet and it looks like they’re right about going over 10,000 total today.

Also, the data shows that 44%, approaching 1/2, of ALL of US Coronavirus deaths are in one location-the NYC area.

In my view, it’s time to make plans to quarantine NYC, and a few other hot spots, help them as much as we can, but for the rest of us to get back to work.

The weather channel has become nothing less than a mouth piece for the left and earth worshippers .

They are constantly spreading fear about one thing or another.

I did figure that out shortly after I posted.

Over 10000 today is likely. There have been 1000+ new deaths daily for the past few days and it’s reasonable to expect yesterday’s total of 9600 to increase beyond 10000 today. I’m not sure why today’s increase from 9600 to 10000+ is any more significant than yesterday’s increase from about 8500 to 9600 (approximate numbers; I didn’t look up the real values).
