COVID Data (6 posts)

   Off Guardian cites an IFR of between .04% and .5%. They get their data from SWPRS which is a COVID skeptical source. Maybe we shouldn't trust it.

   https://off-guardian.org/2021/09/22/30-facts-you-n...
   https://swprs.org/studies-on-covid-19-lethality/#a...

   But here's the CDC site listing total estimated US cases of 120.2 million and 767K fatalites: IFR = 0.6% https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-up...

   For some reason, they don't list this 0.6% number anywhere clearly on the page, although it's obviously THE important number you would want to know. They leave it to you to do the math. Perhaps the number is not impressive enough to protect public health. Perhaps that number is a threat to national security.

   Johns Hopkins has an estimate of 1.6% for the US. So who do we trust? How can these numbers vary so widely? https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/mortality

   Comorbidities and Death Counts

   Is it true that almost all (or some large percentage) of COVID fatalaties are people with comorbidities? Has the death count been underestimated or overestimated?

   Off Guardian:

   “Covid death” counts are artificially inflated. Countries around the globe have been defining a “Covid death” as a “death by any cause within 28/30/60 days of a positive test”.

   Healthcare officials from Italy, Germany, the UK, US, Northern Ireland and others have all admitted to this practice:

   Removing any distinction between dying of Covid, and dying of something else after testing positive for Covid will naturally lead to over-counting of “Covid deaths”. British pathologist Dr John Lee was warning of this “substantial over-estimate” as early as last spring. Other mainstream sources have reported it, too.

   Considering the huge percentage of “asymptomatic” Covid infections [14], the well-known prevalence of serious comorbidities [fact 4] and the potential for false-positive tests [fact 18], this renders the Covid death numbers an extremely unreliable statistic.

   ...

   The vast majority of covid deaths have serious comorbidities. In March 2020, the Italian government published statistics showing 99.2% of their “Covid deaths” had at least one serious comorbidity.

   These included cancer, heart disease, dementia, Alzheimer’s, kidney failure and diabetes (among others). Over 50% of them had three or more serious pre-existing conditions.

   This pattern has held up in all other countries over the course of the “pandemic”. An October 2020 FOIA request to the UK’s ONS revealed less than 10% of the official “Covid death” count at that time had Covid as the sole cause of death.

   Is it true that death counts included people that died of other causes but tested positive for COVID? This is a common claim out there.

   This video, appears to support that claim, at least in Illinois.

   Dr. Ngozi Ezike, director of Illinois Dept of Public Health, explains what counts as a COVID19 death

   Here's an NPR article from a year ago. Don't think this headline would pass the censors today.

   In Kids, The Risk Of COVID-19 And The Flu Are Similar — But The Risk Perception Isn't

   https://www.npr.org/2021/05/21/999241558/in-kids-t...

   HARRIS: Even a vaccinated parent can occasionally get infected with the coronavirus. There's also a small risk that the virus can pass to an unvaccinated child, and that child has an extremely small risk of getting seriously ill. To date, out of more than 74 million children in the United States, there have been about 300 COVID deaths and a few thousand serious illnesses. Hospitalization numbers look worse, but Dr. Roshni Mathew at Stanford's Children's Hospital says those numbers are inflated.

   ROSHNI MATHEW: All hospitals, as the child walks into the hospital for admission, get swabbed for COVID.

   HARRIS: But in her hospital's experience, nearly half of those children with positive COVID tests were not actually sick with COVID.

   MATHEW: So it was a completely unrelated diagnosis, like appendicitis or femur fracture or something else.

   CDC just changed their number since I posted 5 days ago. IFR rate has not changed.

   https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-up...

   Old numbers: total estimated US cases of 120.2 million and 767K fatalites: IFR = 0.6%

   New numbers: 146 million cases / 921K deaths = IFR .6%

   One of the better 9/11 truth advocates had a relative "survive" covid. Unfortunately she suffered severe brain damage from the experience to the point of not remembering that her husband died from the disease.

   Long Covid is real but not factored in to IFR.

   A teenage relative of mine got covid over the winter. A mild case for him, but I was concerned more for his parents. Fortunately everyone in the house had gotten all of their shots and it did not spread to the whole family.

   NPR has also covered the story about the kids who have been orphaned because of covid, not something the antivaxxers want to talk about.

   Off Guardian is a shameless publication, to be polite.
