This is the global curve, but the US curve is similar.

I believe we lost over 16,000 soldiers in VietNam that year.
Every life matters. /s
Well they had a lot the hippies sequestered out in the country. Me, I was a little busy that year.
Hong Kong Flu killed 100,000 Americans over the course of a full year.
Wuhan Flu has killed 60,000 Americans in six weeks.
Do some math.
Rumor has it that Congress will be voting soon to change the ending of our National Anthem to
“... the land of the masked and the home of the socially distanced.”
since the original words didn’t seem to apply any more.

Everyone on FR is a statistician these days. Bad statisticians.

Don’t give the vile, demonic Botoxian and its band of merry communists any ideas.....LOL
dying since at least January (5 months), not 6 weeks.
Sex, drugs and rock and roll ...
There have been numerous reports, linked on Free Republic and other conservative websites, that the U.S. deaths from ChiCom virus are significantly inflated because in Demonicrat-controlled areas the deaths of other people (even those who test negative) have, for political purposes, been lumped in with ChiCom-caused deaths.
This is the global curve, but the US curve is similar.
We had a family member who was on hospice care for a cancerous brain tumor. He died because he was in resperatory distress. He was never tested but by CDC protocol was counted as a “presumptive Covid-19 death.
No one else in the family experienced any symptoms, but that doesn’t neccessarily mean anything. 11 people tested positive a month ago for coronavirus on the fire department I retired from. Two weeks later all tested negative with only one having any symptoms which he still has from his “hay fever”.
So strip out the noise, and just go with "excess" deaths (over normal times) from ALL CAUSES.
How do you explain the spikes in deaths FROM ALL CAUSES over the past weeks, all over the world? Unreported asteroid strikes? Tsunamis? What?
The USA is doing better than a lot of countries, but we are going to be stuck with this thing's global economic effects for a long time.
And it created some of the worst sanitary conditions this side of 19th. Century Hell’s Kitchen.
especially the ay they are piling eaths o the stats.
A friend lost her father to Alzheimer’s this week. He had also contracted CV19 but she knows it as the Alzheimer’s that killed him (and had been killing him).
Have you graphed the Hong Kong Flu pandemic, McGee?
Just curious.
Thanks for sharing a truly great article.
Should be required reading for everyone in the country.
New York State classified my great-uncle as a tobacco death because he chewed snuff.
He was 94.
I was in the Army in 69 to 72 and never heard of it either......
And FWIW, I never heard of the Apollo 13 space mission either. Kinda weird looking back on those days, never once did I watch the TV and can't even remember if we had one in the barracks........Since I was in Central America at the time, anything on TV would have been in Spanish anyways......LOL!
have a chart by month for Hong Kong flu US 1968 an 1969?
