'What took you so long?' CNN and WaPo’s medical expert admits number of COVID deaths have been OVERCOUNTED and that many people died with virus, not of it
2023-01-15
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Dr. Leana Wen says the number of deaths attributed to COVID-19 may be greater than the number of people actually dying from the virus

  • Experts say patients hospitalized with other illnesses may also test positive for COVID-19, but the virus may not have been a contributing factor to their death

  • Wen says the counting can lead to imprecise reporting making people more anxious or skeptical about the true impact of the virus

  • Research has been done to more accurately link severe illness due to COVID

  • Obtaining accurate figures has important implications for forecasting hospital capacity and assessing the effectiveness of vaccines

#9  if a positive test is a "case"

It is if the government gives you additional cash for it.

#7  During the "pandemic", the USA had over 100,000 restaurants close their doors.

Many, too many, suffered "accidental" gas leaks and frier left on type fires.

In our neck of the woods, we also saw well above normal number of restaurants fires.

Restaurants ranging from mom & pop to franchise types that suffered accidental 2020-2022 pandemic fires.

#6  As a % of total population, not much.
If you're in the 60k, it's a lot.

China admits that nearly 60,000 people have died from Covid-19 in the last month, but is the toll much higher?

#5  #2, the "pandemic" (or actually the gummint "measures") crushed a lot of people's life's work in small business.

#4  "if a positive test is a "case""

Which it isn't. If you divide the number of "cases" by the number of tests administered in 2020 there's no increase at all over the entire year.

#3  Science, policy making and propaganda. Add to that the profit motives of Big Pharma and we have quite an interesting cocktail. Explained in much greater detail (less the medical applications) in Wolf's 'Freedom's Laboratory.'

#2  

So now the LSD MSM acknowledges....
I and 1,000's of others now are no longer Crazy Dangerous Conspiracy Nuts?

Either way, the "Pandemic" made a bunch of people Super $$$ rich, lying to us and defaming those trying to present the truth.

The LSD MSM and those that knowingly rode the "Pandemic" milk train should be held $$$$$$$ responsible.

#1  Before 101,641,427 1,099,823 1.1%
After 101,641,427 329,947 .0325%

We did all this stupid stuff for a virus that 99.675% of the people who get it survive?? That plus I think the "cases" are likely much more than 101 million (if a positive test is a "case").
