Those of you saying that the Covid numbers are skewed are absolutely correct, however, they are skewed too low, not too high. First of all, don't listen to Trump about the numbers as he is a known liar (he IS the fake news!) so anything he says needs to be taken with a grain of salt. Listen to the experts like Fauci who have spent their careers studying infectious diseases. The experts say we do not know the true number of people that have been sick or have died and that it is very likely that the real number is much higher.
No, the real number is much lower.
PP has stated that he thinks his family had the virus but were never tested. He may or may not be right but we will never know for sure because they weren't tested. Instead of scaling back testing as Trump pushed for, we really need to expand testing. How many people are out there that had the virus, never got tested and recovered? Even people that died in the past year, if they were not tested, we will never know whether they died from the virus or not.
You didn't read my post then. I stated we had the antibody test done which is supposed to show if you have had it in the past. The problem is the testing is widely inaccurate, with an inaccuracy rate of about 86%. We have also had the swab done, but that doesn't do anything except test if you have it at the time of swabbing.
It also says there is no evidence of hospitals falsely claiming Covid treatments in order to get more money from the government.
That's because there won't be any evidence of espionage, duh. Look at Italy, the country that ultimately caused this country to go into a panic with their own shutdown. The numbers were false and was admitted to later. I can tell you for a fact that a patient could be run over by an 18 wheeler and if their already dead body tested positive for Covid they would be marked as a Covid death to falsely inflate the numbers. That's besides the fact that we know many deaths happened due to improper treatment too. Hell, I watched CNN changed their numbers forward AND backwards within a 30 minute time period while sitting at work. Yet people gobble this shit up.
As for the accuracy of the death toll, other experts have previously told us that while it’s true that some deaths attributed to COVID-19 likely would have occurred regardless of the disease, other factors — like the deaths of undiagnosed COVID-19 victims, including those that occur at home — contribute to a more significant problem of under-counting the deaths.
So the article you linked to completely supports what I said. Thank you.
The problem with this is how many articles, news feeds, etc keep quoting "experts" and saying the word "experts". If we compared this to the political arm chair debaters you'd see the issue there. What makes it worse, is you have one side saying one thing and other real life "experts" (other actual doctors, scientists, etc) taking it on themselves to debunk what the other "experts" are saying. Considering Fauci is a government talking head I won't believe a word more out of his mouth than any other government talking head, the president etc included.
We have a clean cut media brainwashing going on in this country and it's no coincidence this happens right on the year of an election. The fact that over half of the population of this country is too stupid to see the big picture amazes me. Maybe I'm biased, or maybe I'm a little more educated because I have a medical professional in my house with clear numbers and facts idk. The outline itself is real simple though. Just look at the H1N1 outbreak and compare the numbers.
H1N1- 60.8 million H1N1 cases, with 274,304 hospitalizations and 12,469 deaths in a year.
Covid19 - 7.42 million, 212k deaths.
How many of those deaths are real, how many were from the improper treatment given for months at time of outbreak, how many were false positives from inaccurate tests acquired from China, and why is it they were claiming elderly were more prone to death with Covid like H1N1 but yet H1N1 an actual influenza virus killed less with no shutdown in a full year? Then we can add, how many of the 7.42 million number shown was added due to false antibody tests which have a higher false positive rate? The fact that this particular "pandemic" has too many unknowns for people to argue over and less cold hard facts tells the full story. The fact that our country went under a lockdown and numbers suddenly spiked after Italy's false numbers were put out there also tells the full story. The virus is real, the rest is bullshit.
Due to HIPPA I can't inform on static statistics I know, but I can tell you this. Negative testing results outweigh the positive 100 to 1 at least in this area. I mean, looking at the map of Texas on Google I can tell you right now that number is false.
Edit: Let's put it this way, the fact that the president does test positive and they give him a steroid shot should tell you everything. This shit show was politically fueled and the American people ate it up like fat kids and cake.
