I don’t think it’s a conspiracy. I just think it’s sloppy and irresponsible reporting. Never said they had nefarious objectives. I just think they’re poor at their jobs. However, they do have some self-interest in substantiating and validating their own advice.

Like CDC doesn’t have an agenda. They are the ones who recommended the shutdown of course they are going to try and prove they are right.

I believe the CDC and much as I believe WHO!

Why did they say 2,000,000 people would die without measures and 150-200k with them. Should I believe that fact as well?

They all lying to save their own asses.

It’s not just the flu, but likely less deadly. Flu kills more of a wide spectrum of individuals, this mainly kills elderly and pre existing conditions... flu has a vaccine and proven treatment, this doesn’t yet... yes this seems to be more contagious, but in a year or two, this will be a blip on the radar and the Flu will still be the same yearly killer it is.

Annual flu death numbers are a joke, 36K people a year do not die from the flu.


HHS website


quote:

There were only between 600 and 750 influenza deaths recorded annually between 1995 and 1997. The most influenza deaths recorded in a single year since 1979 was about 2,900 deaths and that was in 2009, the H1N1 swine flu pandemic year! Yet CDC policymakers, along with drug company and medical trade association lobbyists have continuously been using inflated influenza hospitalization and mortality estimates to justify expanding the influenza vaccine market


Lots of articles available

We stay at home till June and the depression we create will make the Great Depression look like a tip toe through the tulips ! And the deaths... five years from now ... if we are in the midst of a super Great Depression ... the deaths from that will make these virus deaths pale in comparison. It isn’t a good choice vs a bad choice. It’s bad or worse ... we need to reopen or we will find out what’s worse and five years from now everyone will be standing in a bread line wishing we had just let this virus run it’s course .

Except, you know, this is obviously not true.

Even if you make the ultimate conspiracy theorist assumption that EVERY SINGLE death is now counted as Covid, there is still the problem that the state of New York averages 13,500 deaths per month, but they have seen over 18,000 deaths in the last month.

Patients are automatically considered Corona patients until proven otherwise. Furthermore, if you test positive for Corona and die of anything else including suicide, you are being marked as a Corona death.

Notice how all of the other deaths have gone down. Stay off of XiNN
