Corona Virus, How Has It Affected Your Area So Far?

Weren’t you going to come back and try to explain your super secret brainlet misunderstanding of revenue vs expense? You slinked off the other day and hoped people would forget and not be as embarrassed for you.

Kinda like how vic made a bunch of wild accusations based on nothing, and then when provided with sources directly from the CDC, daddy government, and leftist media sites, and a thorough explanation of why he was wrong, s/he just stopped responding and tried to pretend to not see it.

There’s a pattern here where you guys embarrass yourselves and disappear for a while, then return the following day with really though-provoking posts to the effect of “lol whatever” and “no u.”

Thankfully the majority of lurkers on this site have gotten to see your behavior out in the open. Without even realizing it, you’re defeating yourselves.

This is probably the truest thing said on this whole thread

lol, this didn't happen. Much like your lies about the entire country being infected, your made up mortality rate, your made up death toll. None of your conspiracies have come true. It seems like no matter how many times you get topic banned, you keep trying to derail this thread. Sad.

You can't prove that everyone hasn't been exposed, either, and I didn't state that everyone definitely has been. I stated that, "most people have probably been exposed in some way by now." Common sense should tell you that, with at least one member of each household retrieving or receiving groceries regularly, and many people not adhering to strict quarantine protocols, most people in the country should have been exposed at some point over the past number of months. Not many people are living in bomb shelters, eating rations. There will never be anything close to an accurate "infection rate," because of just how many people have little to no symptoms and will never be tested for antibodies, and this theoretical "infection rate" ignores those who are immune, so "infection rate" is a pointless metric. What matters is how the overall population is affected. Total deaths vs total population. It's likely that less than 0.01125% of the US population has been killed by covid.


1) Here are the CDC's guidelines for coding cause of death. Here are some key points from the guidelines, since you won't read or understand the document:

• What happens if the terms reported on the death certificate indicate uncertainty?
  If the death certificate reports terms such as “probable COVID-19” or “likely COVID-19,” these terms would be
  assigned the new ICD code [(i.e. reported to be a covid death)]. It Is not likely that NCHS will follow up on these cases.

• Should “COVID-19” be reported on the death certificate only with a confirmed test?
  COVID-19 should be reported on the death certificate for all decedents where the disease caused or is
  assumed to have caused or contributed to death.
  

2) What methods are used to estimate the number of influenza-associated deaths in the U.S.? "We first look at how many in-hospital deaths were observed in FluSurv-NET. The in-hospital deaths are adjusted for under-detection of influenza using methods similar to those described above for hospitalizations using data on the frequency and sensitivity of influenza testing. Second, because not all deaths related to influenza occur in the hospital, we use death certificate data to estimate how likely deaths are to occur outside the hospital. We look at death certificates that have pneumonia or influenza causes (P&I), other respiratory and circulatory causes (R&C), or other non-respiratory, non-circulatory causes of death, because deaths related to influenza may not have influenza listed as a cause of death. We use information on the causes of death from FluSurv-NET to determine the mixture of P&I, R&C, and other coded deaths to include in our investigation of death certificate data."

In other words, when the CDC estimates flu-related deaths, they add a bunch based on a guess of how many diagnoses may have been missed, then they add a bunch based on a guess of how many deaths reported as a bunch of other things may have been related to flu. They're doing the same thing with covid, and their own published guidelines support this.

3) "At Tuesday's White House coronavirus press conference, task force member Dr. Deborah Birx said that while some countries are reporting coronavirus fatality numbers differently, in the U.S. you are counted as a victim of the pandemic if you die while testing positive for the virus, even if something else causes your death." Source (I even found one from a leftist site so you won't dismiss it based entirely on who published it)

4) From HHS.gov: "HHS is distributing $12 billion to 395 hospitals who provided inpatient care for 100 or more COVID-19 patients through April 10, 2020...hospitals are paid a fixed amount per COVID-19 inpatient admission, with an additional amount taking into account their Medicare and Medicaid disproportionate share and uncompensated care payments...$12 billion to facilities admitting large numbers of COVID-19 patients and $10 billion to providers in rural areas..."

Conclusion: The CDC guidelines for reporting, combined with financial incentive for hospitals to report as many "covid-related deaths" as possible, causes the 89,000 deaths number to be grossly overinflated. You can always follow the money. But I'm positive that, even though hospitals are private for-profit companies, and you're pro-government controlled healthcare (and everything else) because "corporations are evil," you'll mental gymnastics your way into defending hospitals (again, private gigantic corporations) and claim that there's NO WAY they would EVER lie for money... even though they technically don't have to if they just follow the CDC guidelines, since the CDC has stated that they won't bother to verify any claims. Unless latenight.funnyman tells you that the evil corporations are committing fraud, you won't know what to think, and right now scaring people with overinflated number is more important to the left than their usual routine of calling out the evil scary corporations because it's an election year.



You must not have really meant "lastly," since you continued after this. The "official" number of illegal aliens is based on census reporting... it's shocking that even 1 illegal alien responds to the census. Here's a study from Yale & MIT that estimates the more likely number. The study concludes that the conservative estimate is over 22 million, but could be as high as 35 million. So I'll accept that the total population probably isn't quite 400 million. If you add in foreign citizens living here for an extended period of time, homeless, and all the foreign workers who have overstayed their visas, most of whom probably don't respond to the census, then the number increases by millions, but we can ignore them, use 350 million and move on. Just don't be so naive as to believe the bogus census number of illegals.


You've been provided with photo and video proof. You personally stating that the photos and live video are "phony" shows how far gone you are. This is why I asked what authority figure would have to tell you that it's all OK in order for you to stop shitting your diaper in protest.


Obligatory "orange man bad" insert out of nowhere. Already covered the rest.


Predictable emotional response. Automatically and unquestioningly believe anything posted on the internet, by people you don't know, as long as it supports your masters' agenda and makes you feel sad-sad feelings.

There's a pattern in your way of thinking. You want the government to control everything, you want the left side of the government to make all the rules, and you automatically and unquestioningly believe anything the left side of the government tells you. This is a dangerously stupid way of thinking. Independent thinkers are skeptical and question most things. By automatically buying into whatever your political party or the government tells you, you're allowing yourself to be an emotional pawn and slave to their game. People far away in suits, who you've never met, own you.

lol, I didn't see that long, drawn out post of guesswork because I went to sleep and didn't bother backreading because you and sora were shitposting like crazy (still are). Certainly wasn't a case of me "slinking off at 2 AM." Don't have time to respond right now as Im doing gaingil. But its very amusing how you try to compare flu like deaths to covid related deaths. Doesn't work.

*** dork.

I don't really do memes, but Grandma's Boy comes to mind.

That's not an act, or trolling either. That is 100% you.

Life matters.

5 or 10% death rate isnt by any means acceptable when its about human lifes.

But one thing shouldnt be ignored is, if 5~10% gonna die by covid, you cant just ignore 90~95% that will live and will have a hell of a time to recover from those months without work.

A man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after opening fire on a Waffle House employee who told him he needed to wear a mask, authorities in Colorado said.

I love that normies are getting red pilled on this virus.

Literally saw nobody in a mask when I went out today, lots out in the sun too. 5/6 of the cashiers had no mask or gloves.

Laughed at one incredibly fat woman complaining about social distancing though, she was so fat you had to be across the street to give her social distancing. Also if you're that damn fat you don't care about your health anyway, you'll die before the lockdown ends from a heart explosion.

Democrats: "walls don't work trump, people will just use ladders you bigot!"

Also Democrats: "stop going on the beaches or we will put up fences, don't make us do it!"

Locks don't stop thieves either but you have locks on your damn doors. Walls, locks, signs are a deterrent. That's it.
