Yet the death rate is a tiny 2000.

To give you an idea, I was looking at a documentary yesterday on the queen mom. She died at the age of 102.. from what? A cold. That is right.. old people can die of colds. At that time we were sane and not sheltering in place to keep her from dying.
But now we are... insanity.
300 thousand + dead EXTRA so far. Get it?

Wow, thanks for letting us know. I guess that's what's causing the huge increase in hospitalizations and deaths.

It is all about the hierarchical coding used to generate medical billing.

We have seen the government under obama redefine incidents. Terrorism becomes work place violence to support a political position.

Stories of auto accident victims cause of death being covid because they tested pos, post mortem. Bill for covid death and get financial consideration form the government and insurance companies.

cuomo and Murphy own many of those deaths.

Leave it to the dems to claim they can change the climate and stop a virus. May as well be witch doctors in Haiti or Aztec high priests who promise to bring back the sun after an eclipse.

what will history say when they look back and see that in CA you can intentionally infect some one with aids virus, donate blood knowing you are carrying the aids virus and be charged only with a misdemeanor. At the same time leaders have set huge fines for violating mask mandates or too many people at thanksgiving dinner???????

Ask CA government if they would prefer to be infected with aids or get covid19 and their actions tell us the choice would be to have aids.

The issue is whether setting the sensitivity too high results in identifying people who will not get sick and who will not transmit the virus to others. Those people are infected. It is not a "false reading".

Reducing the sensitivity will miss some people who will get sick and who will give the virus to others. Do you think that is a good idea?
what keeps them from pausing the cycles at 25-30 to determine the infectious?

the Today show, in their desire to dramatize this morning, used a graphic claiming 200,000 people are dying every day.

It's a little more than 1,000 deaths in a day ...

Taking 30 days in a month, multiply by 9 = 270,000

Which they say is outrageous.

If we take confirmed cases 14,809,927; subtract deceased 286,024 = 14,523,903 survivors ... / by (270 days) 9 months = 53,792 amount of people that have survived each day.

If those numbers represented a gun being brought to a fight, my gun would be bigger than theirs.

However, their gun represents an agenda ... and they aim to win with it.

Texas is clocking 250 dead per day, but they dont seem to mind. They are still in the "its a hoax" mindset.

Stop with the lies. Nobody - NOBODY - said it was a hoax. That's a liberal lie that the mainstream media continues to spew.

Your number of 250 dead a day is also a lie.

And just reporting numbers doesn't tell the entire story. Texas is HUGE. Almost all the deaths are in one county, along the Mexico border. The number of deaths as a percentage of the population is virtually the same in Texas and New York, yet you haven't called out New York as being indifferent to the deaths. The number of deaths in Illinois is almost double that of Texas, yet complete silence.

Stop. Just stop.

Control of control?


Amen.


Just wear an effin' mask and keep your distance. Panic is not necessary.
Selfish is sitting by and watching businesses and jobs destroyed because of a virus that is almost completely survivable.

Selfish is sitting by and watch school kids fall into depression and lose valuable learning time because of a virus that is almost completely survivable.

Selfish is expecting the world to crash because healthy people want to continue working and learning, but have to fall victim to at-risk people who won't just stay home.
