I don’t believe any of these numbers.
Even if a few are off. That’s still a lot of deaths.
This is just what the libtards want — mail in votes coming ...
Death by illnesses other than CV plummeted. Normal levels of dying are what we have now nothing more than that. Todd Herman talk about this today that we are back to equilibrium there is no epidemic at all
Coming? Lol. It’s here. Heck even trump absentee votes. It’s popular in Florida. Hardly anybody goes to polls anymore.
However the maximum new cases is consistently decreasing
Seven day average leveling out
Leading indicators decreasing
Lagging indicators increasing
By definition apex
We live in an age of continuous lies and distortions. Simple truths like this are suppressed.
Pssst....also known as a Trump re-election year.
Well, it IS an Election Year with a ‘Republican’ running for office.
If ‘Deaths By Infected Paper Cut’ was higher than those dying of Wuhan Flu, then the ENEMY Media would be pimping THAT.
I know exactly TWO people who have had this flu. Neither of them died. One woman is in her 70’s, the younger man is in his 40’s.
And yet, when I need to go to town tomorrow to buy some gasoline to mow my lawn, I’m in ‘Lock Down Mask Mode’ to do so.
INSANITY!!
It’s off by way more than few. Every branch of government is corrupt and part of The Resistence (TM). CDC is no different.
For the last year that we have complete, finalized data (2018), there were 2,839,205 deaths in the U.S. according to the CDC ( https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/deaths.htm?CDC_AA_refVal=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Fnchs%2Fdeaths.htm )
We are 205 days (56%) into 2020, and the number of provisional deaths as of today according to the CDC is 1,476,140. ( https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/COVID19/
If we multiply the total number of 2018 deaths by 56% we get 1,594,622, or significantly MORE deaths than over the same percentage recorded in this pandemic year.
Now, I admit that this measure isn’t perfect, as some deaths are not yet reported, and the number of deaths from all causes changes from month to month. On the other hand, the population is somewhat larger than it was in 2018. Whatever objections one might have, there is no evidence that shows that a lot more Americans are dying this year than in other recent years (2015-2017 were similar, I only picked 2018 because it is the most recent.)
Even if you take the given number of deaths attributed to CCP Virus (~145,000), that is still less than 10% of ALL deaths in the U.S. so far this year, with many of the deaths coming from those who were already rather sick, very old, or both (often both). This isn’t the black plague.
My husband just today found something about whoever it is that accounts for deaths, just counting death certificates of the previous several weeks all at once.
IOW, were not necessarily seeing 1000 deaths TODAY, but perhaps from the last several weeks. They’re not always getting them counted until late, or back-recording it by date.
Another thing.
My nephew just had COVID.
He caught it in MD working, and lives in DE.
Guess how he is counted?
Each state counts him as a case.
Imagine if someone like that dies....do each of the states tracking him count him as a death?
A tale of two tests: Vermont town left puzzled by positive, then negative, COVID-19 results By Hanna Krueger Globe Staff,Updated July 22, 2020, 7:18 p.m.
iebig would ultimately be one of 65 people who tested positive last week after completing the rapid antigen test offered at a private medical clinic in the heart of Manchester, Vt., a town of fewer than 5,000. News of an outbreak set off alarms in a state that to-date had fared well in the pandemic, registering the second-fewest cases in the country. Many local restaurants and retailers quickly shut down. The Saturday farmers market was canceled. State officials with little information scrambled to answer questions from reporters and the public as to how and where the outbreak began. But in Vermont, positive antigen tests — a relatively new way of detecting an active COVID infection — require confirmation by another test: a polymerase chain reaction, or PCR, test, the gold-standard used by the government, hospitals, and professional sports teams. Of the 65 people who’d received those positive antigen tests, 48 would ultimately test negative via PCR. Liebig was one of them. ..
Unlike PCR tests, which detect the presence of genetic material, antigen tests detect specific proteins on the surface of a virus ...
PCR tests, by comparison, are quite accurate but can take days to return results, rendering them obsolete since a person could have become infected in the interim period.
“We don’t have any independent validation on these antigen tests,” said Dr. Gigi Gronvall, a biosecurity expert at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. “ ...
Rhode Island and Massachusetts include positive antigen tests in their daily case total, while Vermont and New Hampshire require confirmation via PCR. New York, where Liebig lives, is treating her as a presumptive positive case for COVID and mandating quarantine, despite her negative PCR test. Liebig is relatively certain she’s negative since she has shown no symptoms herself and no one around her has reported symptoms. - https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/07/22/nation/tale-two-tests-vermont-city-left-puzzled-by-positive-then-negative-covid-19-results/?s_campaign=breakingnews:newsletter
The states are pumping the numbers by going back in time and looking at old death certificates and guessing that they ‘probably’ died of COVID for various reasons. Many, many of the deaths in these large numbers aren’t from today or yesterday or this week, or even this month. even if they are in fact COVID, which is dubious.
eg...you have heart failure and copd, you're elderly, you fall and get a compression fracture and you lie in bed and get pneumonia....you are one sick puppy and you WILL get the virus because its everywhere.....you will probably die, but it'll be blamed on covid, not the CHF,copd,or pneumonia...
The Excess Deaths page just got an influx of reports since the week after 4th of July. Pretty big reversal of the national ED graphs, which had been plummeting since lockdown.
The rise is sharpest in Arizona and Mississippi visually, but the uptick in Florida EDs is the most numbers.
The death spikes are real. EDs are the way to know.
