#1 Have said and will continue to say ....

Why is the CDC and the Media rolling over the C-19 Flu Virus count. Season #1 Peak on April 18th and declined until Oct. 10th when Season #2 started due to Bumps/increases due a FLU Season Climate starting, coupled with Labor-day, Halloween, Elections, T-day, holiday travel, some sports and Christmas events.

CDC TABLE 1 DEATH COUNT

YOU BE THE JUDGE.

NOTE:
The CD's own website data tells us the USA has a Normal daily mortality rate of 7,708 deaths each day in the USA. 7708 daily avg. X 365 days = 2,813,420 US typical Mortality per 2020 year.

The above CDC Table 1 last updated DEC 31, 2020 tell us that 2,913,144 died from all causes in 2020?


2,913,144 - 2,813,420 = 99,724 more than usual deaths. So the overall chances of DYING from the C-19 in the USA with a population of 342M increased by: 0.029159064327485378 of 1%

#2 The real conservative message should be: The government not only didn't prevent this, they abetted it. The lockdowns and vaccine kabuki are not mitigating it. Stop listening to the magician's patter and watch what he's doing with his hands.

#3 Romney is so out of touch he's pitiful.
I have some first hand experience on the problems rolling the vaccines out. 12/23 my sister's assisted facility and CVS got together to organize a rapid rollout of the vaccine at her facility. Admin. sent all interested (patients, family, health care POAs) a missive saying that a special consent form had to be signed before the shots could be given, and that the forms were attached to the missive. The forms were not attached, however. Admin. took a long Christmas holiday.
12/28 Admin. was back at work, and got many msgs about the lack of the forms. Admin. sent a 2nd missive, saying the forms would be sent out shortly. By 1/2 the forms have still not been received.
Now the vaccine material has been sitting on the shelves or wherever they sit, still at CVS, still no forms finished. 10 days and nothing to show for it. The necessity for the forms has been known for over a month.
Very similar SNAFUs have been happening all over the USA. Vaccine material distributed before Christmas Eve has not been used, because HOLIDAYS and bureaucratic inertia.
If the USA had fought WWII the way it's fighting COVID, we would have lost the war.

#4 NN2N1 CDC mortality stats are a lagging indicator. It will probably be February before a reasonably valid total death count for 2020 is known.

#5 I saw this on Facebook yesterday:
I saw this notice on the website of a major hospital today:
COVID-19 testing site:
Hours of operation:
Standard Hours:
Monday—Friday: 8 am–6 pm
Saturday: 8 am-6 pm
12/31/20 – 8 am - 12 noon
1/1//21 – Closed
-------------
Am I the only one who sees a profound lack of seriousness in this scheduling? Be aware the new vaccines are being scheduled in the same manner.

#6 Like some female person of the progessive democrat variety often quoted said "at this point, what difference at this point does it make?"

50% of the medical people, who presumably have knowledge about medicine, are refusing to get the 2 shots.

This guy is a politician, what does he know, Zip.

I'm not Mikey, "give it to mikey he'll eat anything" and you can keep your Gates Plan too.

#7 Just a friendly remember - Romney gave us the precursor to Obamacare when he signed off on Mass.' health care 'reform', also called Romneycare.

#8 How Mittens legitimately has an (R) after his name is a mystery. GOP leadership, are these the types of people you covet?

#11 Funny how they move around, too. Mittens was guv-nah of Mass. now representing Utah. He even has Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) beat.
