  • COVID has already killed at least 0.013%(not accounting for people who didn’t get tested or had a false negative before they died) of the entire US population. For the death rate to be 0.02%, more than half the country would have had to already had it. That’s extremely unlikely, if not completely impossibls.

    What the CDC did say, though, is that their rough estimate is somewhere between 0.2% and 1%, with a best estimate of 0.4%, which is quite high for a novel virus. Keep in mind that this was when the CDC was under Trump’s thumb, and he once used a sharpie to alter a graph showing a hurricane’s projected path(among other things), and most independent scientists think their estimate was low, probably in the 0.5-1.5% range. And, as we’ve seen multiple times in multiple cities and countries, that number soars when the number of cases is beyond the capacity of what the health care system can handle.

    • Where has the hospital capacity overloaded past a normal flu season? Im in NY in a "high" infection area and Ive been past a couple hospitals, the ER was empty if you look through the window.

      • Obviously all hospitals are different and I can’t speak for the ones you see, but I do know that a hospital would have to be way beyond overloaded before anything would be noticeable to an outside observer. And it’s not like they’re going to have suspected COVID patients just sitting in a waiting room mingling with all the other patients.

        • Remember last march they had all those videos of people collapsing in the streets in china waiting to get into hospitals? That never happened anywhere.

          They're playing with numbers to scare everyone so they can usher in totalitarian NWO agendas.

          • No but it wouldn’t surprise me. I doubt China is as well equipped to handle unexpected disasters as the US is. The US regularly drills and preps for situations just like that, I don’t think they do that in countries where they pretend something like that could never happen.

            Is there any evidence whatsoever that the numbers are being fudged or exaggerated in any meaningful way? IMO the evidence seems a lot more compelling that the numbers are being undercounted, if anything, since the number of deaths is higher than expected by a much bigger margin than the number of deaths attributed to COVID. That’s the fun thing about conspiracy theories, just tilt the tinfoil hat a little bit in the other direction and the exact opposite is true.

            • You can look it up. There are lots of false positives on the unreliable test and they're counting motorcycle accidents as covid deaths. It's not a conspiracy theory.

              Europe has less personal freedom than China right now, you think that's an accident? The entire world is reacting in lock-step to a bad cold using measures that show no observable effect on preventing the spread of said cold, and there's no other agenda?

              The great reset is what they're trying to do. You can look it up. It has a website and everything. It's not a conspiracy, they aren't even hiding it anymore.

              • We already talked about the motorcycle deaths thing so I’m not sure why you’re still pretending that’s true, you know it’s been debunked.

                You can look up the number of excess deaths. Way more people are dying than should be right now - and the official COVID death count is way short of covering it. Something is killing these people. It’d be a hell of a coincidence if there was way more motorcycle deaths or whatever happening at the same time as a deadly novel virus. Like I said, just tilt the tinfoil hat the other way and it’s easy to believe they’re suppressing the numbers because they don’t want us to know how bad it is and how badly they’ve botched it.

                Anybody can make a website. You really don’t think whoever’s coming up with that stuff doesn’t have an agenda of their own?
