As we have been reporting since the Presstitutes began selling COVID Fear and Hysteria in late January, the facts of who and why people are dying of COVID essentially have been suppressed.
The “experts” featured in the mainstream media are promoted as the ones selling their line of propaganda, and all opposing it are banned.
For example, on 3 March, CNN referred to Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, as the “expert of all experts.”
Cleary, according to CNN, a.k.a. the Cartoon News Network, there is no one on the planet who knows more than Dr. Fauci, and we must believe what he believes.
In fact, what Americans and others around the world are being sold – and the vast majorities of citizens are buying – are new laws and regulations that rob liberties and freedoms while lacking empirical epidemiological evidence.
In previous Trends Journals, we have reported the inaccuracies. The following are facts that dispute what the Presstitutes are selling, which politicians parrot to enforce their authoritarian orders.
Read the deadly CNBC headline from 11 March: “Up to 150 million Americans are expected to contract the coronavirus, congressional doctor says.”
At the time, Dr. Brian Monahan, the attending physician for Congress and the U.S. Supreme Court, said he expected up to 150 million Americans would be infected with COVID-19.
Assuming he was correct, with the virus’s estimated 1 percent mortality rate, that would mean some 1.5 million American would die.
To date, with a reported 118,000 having died from the virus in the U.S., the “expert” doctor is off by only 1,382,000 people.
Yet, this imbecilic forecast made by a government flack, which helped spread COVID Fear and Hysteria, is totally ignored by the mainstream media Presstitutes.
Swiss Policy Research, an independent, nonpartisan/nonprofit research group, published its 2 June update, “Facts About Covid-19.”
From this report, here are further examples of how the solid facts are being ignored and Fear is being sold.
- According to the latest immunological and serological studies, the overall lethality of Covid-19 (IFR) is about 0.1%and thus in the range of a strong seasonal influenza (flu).
- Up to 80 percent of all test-positive persons remain symptom-free. Even among 70-79 year olds, about 60 percent remain symptom-free. Over 95 percent of all persons develop at most moderate symptoms.
TRENDPOST: Indeed, we have continually quoted the Associated Press, which, when reporting on the virus, has stated, “For most people, the coronavirus causes mild or modest symptoms, such as fever and cough, that clear up in two to three weeks. For some, especially older adults and people with existing health problems, it can cause more severe life-threatening illness, including pneumonia and death.”
Yet, absent from mainstream news and politicians who continually keep selling Fear and Hysteria is:
- The average age of the deceased in most countries (including Italy) is over 80 years and only about 4 percent of the deceased had no serious preconditions. The age and risk profile of deaths thus essentially corresponds to normal mortality.
- In many countries, up to two thirds of all deaths occurred in nursing homes. In many countries, deaths in elder care homes account for 30 to 60 percent of all additional deaths. In Canada and some U.S. states, elder care homes account for up to 80 percent of all “Covid-19 related” deaths.
TRENDPOST: There are findings from the Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity, as reported in Forbes, that “in the 43 states that currently report such figures, an astounding 42 percent of all of COVID-19 deaths have taken place in nursing homes and assisted living facilities… or 0.62 percent of the entire U.S. population.”
Therefore, even assuming the Swiss Policy Research number is too high and the Foundation’s is more accurate, of the 114,700 who reportedly died from the virus in the U.S., only 66,526 out of a population of 330 million, or 0.02 percent, who died of the virus were not living in nursing homes.
And the high data rate from the virus is also attributed to obesity.
According to a CDC study of patients hospitalized due to COVID-19, 48.3 percent were classified as obese.
A Chinese study reported obesity was almost five times more prevalent in patients with COVID-19 who died (88 percent) compared to those who survived (19 percent).
Researchers in France found that nearly half of the patients admitted to an intensive care unit with COVID-19 had a Body Mass Index (BMI) that put them in the “obese” range.
In the U.K, 75 percent of the 6,720 patients had a BMI in the overweight or obese range.
TRENDPOST: Instead of quarantining and taking better care of those in elder care facilities and issuing health warnings to those who are clinically obese or suffer from Type 2 diabetes, governments shut down the global economy, put hundreds of millions out of work, destroyed businesses and livelihoods, and in set in motion a series of mental and physical health problems that will cause far more suffering and death than the virus.
Furthermore, as per the example in the U.S., with just 0.62 percent of the entire population most at risk of dying from the virus in elder care homes, 99.38 percent were forced into the unprecedented lockdown of an entire society… that still, in many ways, persists.
Also from the Swiss Policy Research study, up to 30 percent of all additional deaths may not have been caused by COVID-19, but, instead, from the effects of the lockdown Fear and Panic. For example, the treatment of heart attacks and strokes decreased by up to 60 percent because many patients were afraid to go to hospitals.
Another finding from the study confirms what we have been reporting: it is often not clear whether victims died from the virus or from underlying diseases, since they were counted as “presumed cases” and not tested at all.
Also reported in the Swiss Policy Research:
- Contrary to original assumptions, various studies have shown there is no evidenceof the virus spreading through aerosols (i.e. tiny particles floating in the air) or through smear infections (e.g. on door handles or smartphones). The main modes of transmission are direct contact and droplets produced when coughing or sneezing.
- There is no scientific evidencefor the effectiveness of face masks in healthy or asymptomatic On the contrary, experts warn such masks interfere with normal breathing and may become “germ carriers.” Leading doctors have called them “media hype” and “ridiculous.”
- Several medical experts described vaccines against coronaviruses as unnecessaryor even dangerous. Indeed, the vaccine against the so-called Swine flu of 2009, for example, led to some experiencing severe neurological damage and lawsuits in the millions.
