Quoted: View Quote I don't either. Here in WV, our weekly death rate has stayed mostly the same. Fluctuated week by week. No discernible difference. Which mirrors my unscientific knowledge that I can count on one hand the people I know who have actually died from it. I don't doubt that many have. But I don't count 99 year olds who were already in hospice. Also, what other causes of death are we tracking? I'm really curious on heart disease. Also suicide. Also murders. |

Quoted: not surprising. What does suck is that I doubt we saved many lives by having all the mandatory lock downs. View Quote It sure doesn't sound like it. I think we wrecked our economy for nothing. (I know, I know, the Never Trumpers will say it wasn't for nothing if it go rid of Trump). |

Well, at least medical mistakes aren't the 3rd leading cause of death in the US anymore, estimated by Johns Hopkins to be around 250,000 in 2018.

But we have zero deaths from flu, cancer, pneumonia, heart disease, etc, so it’s really not a big deal.

But we probably had less deaths in 2020 overall from everything else. Amiright?

At the rate we're moving I doubt we'll get to 600,000 deaths . . . maybe by fudging the numbers to keep the fear alive.
Our cases in GA have fallen off like a rock, we're back down to a 7-day moving average of ~2,000 positive cases. I think if you were gonna get it, you've already gotten it by now. |

Funny that Cuomo is claiming that of the 14,000 deaths laid at his feet 98% of them would have died anyway. So I guess the real total using Cuomo math is 1,000 or so.

The good news is no one has died from old age, cancer, or any other medical issues.

That means 1 in 700 people have died from covid-19 in this country. Lol NO

Quoted: There's absolutely no reason the US would have a higher death rate than other countries that either did nothing/little or about the same (lock downs in major metro centers). It makes absolutely zero sense. I don't believe it. For example. The US has 1,540 deaths/million Russia has 573/million even after they added a bunch recently. Keep in mind, their population is mostly in the cities- and believe it or not their testing capabilities are pretty robust...also remember their general health sucks (especially for the high risk older folks) and their healthcare sucks. Oh, and they didn't do anything besides encourage people to work from home and close the border. Sweden is lower and didn't do shit. Mexico is a shit hole with shitty medical care and theirs is lower too. Turkey did very little and is at 331/million Nope, I don't believe it for a second. View Quote Not that I believe any of the numbers but the United States is probably one of if not the most obese country in the world. I thought I remember the number one predictor of a bad or negative outcome from covid was obesity and how fat you are Shit that's probably wrong now to though. I can't keep up with the ever changing BS |

I wonder how many if that total already had a foot through deaths door and modern medicine in America was keeping them alive, probably a large segment |

Why haven’t they released the 2020 total death stats? Is the number 400,000 higher than 2019? If not, why not?

Analyzing medical death rate data over an eight-year period, Johns Hopkins patient safety experts have calculated that more than 250,000 deaths per year are due to medical error in the U.S. View Quote The news will never report on this, god only knows what the actual numbers are. |

Well, since the Flu, heart disease and other deaths went to zero, the overall US mortality rate is actually down to 2.8M from the previous 3 years at around 2.9M. Using logic we would conclude that Covid has had a positive effect and masks should go away immediately. BUT...now we know using logic and math are racists per Bill and Melinda Gates.

So the death rate increased 500,000 more than normal in the past 12 months in the USA ?
That's pretty bad. If you believe it. |
|
|
|
Even at face value when you do the math the death percentage is very very small.
