You can't believe anything you read or see on TV anymore we are
so close to the election everything is spent especially among the Democratic
media.
Media is like a cockroach. Where there is one spewing crap in your food cabinets, you know there must be millions. The only way to rid yourself of a cockroach is to move out of the house.
Raid doesn’t work in ridding us of dishonest media, and unless they decide to pack up with the rest of the Hollywood celebrities, we’re stuck with media’s bullshit.
COVID-19 remains the primary campaign for the Biden camp, and so naturally, mainstream media spreads terror on Biden’s behalf. While media hasn’t given up on the rest of the Democratic agenda, COVID-19 has been so effective in scaring the electorate, they need nothing more than to post the latest positive numbers to keep their voters in line.
Statistically covid-19 is barely worse than any other pandemic before it which suggests that it has become a campaign issue rather than a medical emergency.
Media likes to compare this to the 1918 pandemic but that's a false narrative
Pandemics of this kind have happened every couple of years since the 1930s all with about the same death rate some years worse than others
The current pandemic actually compares more with those of the late 50s and through the 60s in which the percentage was about the same as death rate and hospitalizations
The 1969 pandemic actually lasted for about three and a half years from late 1967 to early 1971 and accounted for about 400,000 American deaths
This is based on a population of about 180 million so by today's standard that 400,000 would actually be closer to a million deaths.
The 1957 pandemic also showed similar death rate as covid-19 about 63,000 based on a population of about 130 million – so this would be the equivalent of about 200,000 deaths in today’s numbers.
COVID-19 – like all viruses -- is dangerous. But it is not dramatically more dangerous than all of the other pandemics that we have faced over the years.
In other words every governor in every state do the same thing Trump did when Trump knew it back in February and we're slow to react
While there is legitimacy to the early numbers of illnesses, the testing done today basically in creating a phony second wave. Yes, people are dying, but most of the positives are coming from increased numbers of tests on non-symptomatic people, many of whom never come down with symptoms, most of whom never get admitted to a hospital and even fewer die as a result of COVID.
We shall see how this election pans out but polls seem to be all over the place but it said this is probably an election too close to call.
Everybody is claiming that there is a spike which would be true if this were simply not an election year
We keep hearing how Trump could have saved lives if he had acted sooner. He apparently found out about the problem in February and did not declare a state of emergency until a month later. Biden on the other hand as vice president in 2009 waited nine months to declare a state of emergency and only after 46 states were in crisis.
If you really need to blame someone on the federal level, blame Feinstein, who knew and January when she sold off her stock.
We hear Democratic governors whining about not being warned about how dangerous the virus was, and how Trump did not tell them. But the fact is, these governors also knew because they got the same information at the same time from the CDC which deals directly with the Department of Health in each state.
This is particularly egregious in New York and New Jersey where seniors in senior homes died in droves because the Democratic Governors not only did not bother to test seniors or give homes the medical supplies they needed, but sent sick people into the homes so seniors died faster. And these governors can not use Trump as an excuse for not knowing since Italy in February reported high deaths among seniors. Obvious, governors – particularly Democrats – weren’t paying attention.
What's misunderstood this campaign is the fact that the president has very little say over the response since the CDC directly interacts with State Health departments
Most of the 225,000 deaths were the result of other conditions which would have likely killed those people anyway but are counted as COVID deaths. It will be interesting to see how many fewer deaths of other causes will be listed for 2020.
Media is having a field day with the so-called new spike even though this is very much a field of dreams head trip with every Pharmacy and often online making test kits available.
While positives are never a good thing, there is no way to tell if this is unusual since we’ve never tested like this in the past pandemics – even those that resulted in massive death.
But of course we're now only a week or so out of the election and covid-19 is the principal campaign for the Democrats and so media is lining up to promote the hysteria right up until the last vote is counted
