San Diego County supervisor says six of 194 confirmed deaths are 'pure, solely coronavirus' deaths
washington examiner ^ | 5/15/2020 | andrew mark miller

The supervisor of San Diego County, California, is pushing back against Gov. Gavin Newsom’s stay-at-home order, arguing that only six of the county’s 194 recorded coronavirus deaths are “pure, solely coronavirus deaths.”

“We’ve unfortunately had six pure, solely coronavirus deaths — six out of 3.3 million people,” San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond said in an interview this week, according to the San Diego Tribune. “I mean, what number are we trying to get to with those odds? I mean, it’s incredible. We want to be safe, and we can do it, but unfortunately, it’s more about control than getting the economy going again and keeping people safe.”

San Diego County Public Health Officer Wilma Wooten disagreed with Desmond, who downplayed deaths resulting from patients with preexisting conditions.

“Their life is no less valuable than someone’s life who does not have underlying medical conditions,” she said. “This is not just San Diego. This is how this is done throughout the entire nation in terms of identifying who has died of COVID-19.”

This is probably happening all over the place. Democrat leaning health officials are doing the SAME thing. It’s win, or burn the country down around themselves. They have no moral restraint to not do so.

On the plus side... Cancer deaths, heart attacks and COPD deaths have dropped 95%.

Ok 194 out of 3.3 million.

That’s 0.0059% of the population.

You are shutting down for that?

if you compare either number of SD deaths since this began..

What is the over/ under of those deaths vs deaths caused by illegal alien drivers in the same time frame.. this vs last year?

Yep, it’s practically safe to start smoking. No one dies of smoking related illnesses anymore :)

I love the hypocrisy.

I am not a flu bro, but I do suspect at this point we are having a much easier time here in the USA, because we are not stacked on top of each other.

Though I do wonder how China survives all the viruses that go around there, given how closely they live with each other. Even now Wuhan is supposedly in re-ignition stage of Covid-19.

New York will keep having issue as well I suspect.

I wonder if this will result in the great de-citying of the country? Or at least, a throwback to more spread out cities, instead of the high density places we tend towards today?

Desmond is a member of the County Board of Supervisors, not THE Supervisor.

Wooten’s response is classic liberal emotionalism and anti-reason strawman.

Meant to obfuscate and close down discussion.

It’s amazing to hear the words “Every life is precious” coming from the mouths of baby-killers.

The emotional nonresponse from Public Health Officer Dr. Wilma Wooten makes me want to kick something.

‘FROM’ CV-19 or ‘WITH’ CV-19?

Smoking seems to protect against it.

Smokers 80% less risk of getting Covid-19.
