Flubros and Flubras! Day 81 (a place for Flubros and Flubras)

It’s just the flu, bro.

It really was/is just the flu. The death count is about 100k. Of course that includes people who had CV as one cause of death along with several other comorbidities. It also includes the people from states who hate Trump so much they banned effective treatments that he recommended. And it includes the deaths due to overventing in order to get the federal dollars.

But things are under control so let’s revoke the lockdown laws. I am still convinced that we will be saved by football - youth and college and pro and high school. The pressure for football is so intense in Texas that everything will have to be revoked - they can’t just say football is an exception, like the Floyd protests, and we need to have it even though it spreads CV. Or can they?

If you believe that, then you believe George Floyd’s cause of death was Covid-19.

The death count is about 100k

More like 30k. The rest are either people who died of something else (real flu, gunshot, car wreck, vending machine falling on them after they rocked it) who had Chinese Communist Party (CCP) cooties in them, or outright lies.

Seriously. Even Dr. Fauci is climbing down from his “second wave” rhetoric.

Thusfar it looks like Germany’s Bundesliga and South Korea’s K-League have returned to play in empty stadiums.

Both are piping in artificial crowd noise.
The first week of the Bundesliga they were not doing that and you got the impression that they were playing games in school playgrounds.

Way to go!  Raking out another one to add to the bogus numbers.

Did your dog ever come back home after you tested him?

How is what you are doing helping to get Trump re-elected?

You are helping the Left by promoting their narrative.

The Covid-19 pandemic has catapulted one mysterious data website to prominence, sowing confusion in international rankings

By Scott McLean, Laura Perez Maestro, Sergio Hernandez, Gianluca Mezzofiore and Katie Polglase, CNN - Published Tuesday, May 19, 2020 at 12:00 a.m. ET

".....a data aggregation website called Worldometer — one of the sources behind the university’s widely cited coronavirus dashboard — and prompting questions about why some governments and respected institutions have chosen to trust a source about which little is known."

"The website claims to be “run by an international team of developers, researchers, and volunteers” and “published by a small and independent digital media company based in the United States.”

But public records show little evidence of a company that employs a multilingual team of analysts and researchers. It’s not clear whether the company has paid staff vetting its data for accuracy or whether it relies solely on automation and crowdsourcing. The site does have at least one job posting, from October, seeking a volunteer web developer."

“For the past six years at the State Department, Dr. Birx has, among her responsibilities, overseen the Presidents’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, or PEPFAR, created in 2003 by President **George W. Bush** when antiretroviral drugs saving lives in developed countries were not available in other nations.”

I’ve read speculation that regular death rates are likely to fall as we go further into the year. Covid-19 just sped up the process by a few months for some unfortunate souls...

NEVER going to happen, not before November 4th, anyway, and probably not even then. Too many people got too much power and control out of this, and they're not about to give it up.

“From the data we have, it still seems to be rare that an asymptomatic person actually transmits onward to a secondary individual,” Dr. Maria Van Kerkhove, head of WHO’s emerging diseases and zoonosis unit, said at a news briefing from the United Nations agency’s Geneva headquarters. “It’s very rare.””
