More people will have died from COVID under Biden than Trump
Christopher Tremoglie 10/11/2021



According to Johns Hopkins University’s data on COVID-19 deaths, since Jan. 1, there have been approximately 353,000 deaths from the pandemic. This is about a thousand more COVID-19 deaths than in all of 2020.

That is to say, more people have died from COVID-19 under President Joe Biden than under former President Donald Trump.


There are some important details to take into account, however. Trump lacked the benefit of vaccinations until the last month of his presidency, whereas Biden had them from day one. Biden, on the other hand, has had to deal with the surge of the delta variant, which spread throughout the country, even among the vaccinated.

Then again, under Biden, the COVID-19 seven-day fatality rate in September was higher than last September.

“The coronavirus doesn’t really know what year it is,” noted Dr. David Dowdy, an associate professor of epidemiology at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. “And the death has largely come in waves.”

In reality, these numbers should not be surprising. The history of pandemics shows that there are multiple waves and variants that frequently lead to a lot of people being infected and dying. Biden never had any business promising he could beat the virus.


It is amusing how, in year one of the pandemic, every story about the virus was a “blame Trump” story. Absolutely nothing Biden has done is working, yet Biden really never gets blamed for anything.

Sure, Trump said a lot of wacky things, but Biden has told many falsehoods about the virus as well. He stated, for example, that "If you're vaccinated, you're not going to be hospitalized, you're not going to be in the ICU unit and you're not going to die." And then, shortly after those comments, Biden contradicted himself and added that even if vaccinated people do "catch the virus," they are "not likely to get sick."

Further, when discussing the delta variant, Biden stated that vaccines "cover" the delta variant insofar as people will not contract the virus if vaccinated. "You're not going to get COVID if you have these vaccinations,” Biden said.

Presidents should be given some leeway when they talk about pandemics. They are just relaying information from “experts” who seem to be either wrong or oversimplifying as often as not. That said, if Biden were held to the same standard Trump was, he would be exposed for his lies and incompetence.

 

But hey, now with this Omicron thingy, the despicables got another opportunity to try and scare the hell out of us!
No matter that weeks into the latest crisis, and so far no one has died from Omicron, the despicables will spin it anyway!

Why the good news about the Omicron variant's reduced severity may be a mirage (yahoo.com)

There's a growing, caveat-filled consensus among public health experts that the new Omicron strain of the coronavirus is both more contagious and less severe than other COVID-19 strains. The evidence for greater transmissibility is more persuasive at this point than reduced severity, but "thus far, the signals are a bit encouraging regarding the severity," Dr. Anthony Fauci said on CNN this weekend.

.....................

Maybe, Leonhardt writes. "One worrisome postscript is that even seemingly mild COVID infections can prove deadly for vulnerable people, like the elderly. The flu kills large numbers of elderly people for the same reason." And any reduction in severity could be canceled out by the spike in cases it produces, for a net increase in hospitalizations and deaths, World Health Organization COVID expert Dr. Maria van Kerkhove told CBS News on Sunday.

 

Leave it to Tennessee. They are fine with killing their residents just as long as they can continue to worship at the feet of their Chosen One.

Tennessee Medical Board Removes COVID Misinformation Warning After GOP Pressure

The medical licensing board of Tennessee has voted to remove any reference to a new policy warning against COVID-19 vaccine misinformation from its website, essentially buckling under pressure from a conservative Republican who opposed it. The policy, which holds that doctors who knowingly spread misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines can be suspended or have their licenses revoked, has not been rescinded, but any information about it has been scrubbed from public view. The decision came after Rep. John Ragan of Oak Ridge, who is on the Tennessee Joint Government Operations Committee, said board members did not have authority to discipline individual doctors. The Tennessean reports that the board removed reference to the policy out of fear Ragan might make good on a threat to replace board members if they did not.

Facebook Deleting Coronavirus Posts, Leading To Charges Of Censorship

Listen to article4 minutes

Updated 9PM PST March 17: Facebook says it has fixed the bug and all posts are restored. That may not be completely accurate, however, according to one source.

Facebook and other tech companies are working hard to curb misinformation on their platforms about the emerging COVID-19 or Coronavirus pandemic.

Maybe too hard.

“Facebook is blocking COVID-19 posts from fact based sources,” a Facebook friend who noticed it told me. “Facebook is hiding these posts. At the time of viral pandemic this shouldn’t be happening.”

Multiple others have experienced the same thing, and it’s the day after Facebook, along with Google, Twitter, Microsoft, LinkedIn, and Reddit issued a joint statement on combatting misinformation on their platforms. That’s a good thing, as long as what they’re targeting actually is incorrect or spammy information, and not quality reporting from generally-recognized sites.

Apparently, those sites include Medium, Buzzfeed, and USA Today.

 

Trump inspired misinformation and is still killing about 1,000 Americans per day. No media social or otherwise should be an accessory to that.

 

Put up or shut up time, stumbler.
What, exactly, did trump do to "inspire misinformation" and how exactly, is he still killing 1,000 Americans a day?

During all of 2020, during the trump administration, 396,442 people had died.
From January, 2021 to November 30, 2021, during the biden administration, 396,552 people have died.
More Americans have died of COVID in 2021 than 2020: Johns Hopkins - Washington Times
Of note is that during all of biden's administration vaccines have been available that have proven effective in greatly decreasing the impact of covid.

 

All Trump did was lie about COVID 19 and constantly spread misinformation just like this. Which is why instead of being able to defeat COVID 19 by wearing masks and getting vaccinated the Delta variant was able to take over and more than 1,000 Americans are still dying from it per day.

But as tragic as that form of mass murder is at least the bulk of those dying are Trump cult followers.

Listerine website debunks GOP senator’s latest anti-science claim

WKOW/screen grab


Conspiracy theorist and Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) has garnered national attention for his ridiculous claims about the coronavirus pandemic and Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, among other delusions.

"The senator has been criticized for spreading conspiracy theories about the coronavirus and has promoted the use of drugs that have shown little to no evidence that they are effective in treating covid-19. YouTube this year suspended his account for violating the company’s medical misinformation policies. He has also expressed skepticism about the efficacy of coronavirus vaccine mandates and doses, which have undergone vigorous health testing," The Washington Post reported Thursday.

Now he's even recommending mouthwash as a treatment.

“Standard gargle, mouthwash, has been proven to kill the coronavirus,” Johnson claimed at a town hall on Wednesday. “If you get it, you may reduce viral replication. Why not try all these things?”



Johnson's claim was quickly criticized.

"Though mouthwash can partially kill off parts of the coronavirus in a person’s mouth, most infections occur through the nose, health experts said," the newspaper reported. A dental-professional-focused website run by Listerine, one of the world’s most widely used mouthwash products, specifically says the evidence is not strong enough to conclude that it is helpful against covid-19. Listerine 'is not intended to prevent or treat COVID-19 and should be used only as directed on the product label,” the website notes in bold.'

The newspaper interviewed Raymond Niaura, interim chair of the epidemiology department at New York University, who suggested gargling would not hurt, but only if accompanied by vaccination.

“That way, one would be at reduced risk for infection and have good smelling breath,” Niaura said.

Anti-Vax Republican Who Denied Michigan Election Certification Dies of COVID

A local Michigan Republican official who refused to certify Joe Biden’s presidential victory in his county and who vehemently opposed vaccines has died of COVID-19. William Hartmann, 63, succumbed to the coronavirus on Nov. 30 in a hospital in Wyandotte, Michigan. Hartmann, who spread lies and conspiracy theories about the election via his Facebook page, and a fellow Republican on the Wayne County Board of Canvassers, Monica Palmer, initially declined to certify the tallies of 2020 presidential election votes in their county after the results had come in. Biden more than doubled former President Donald Trump’s count, with 68 percent of the vote to 31. The board is composed of four people—the other two were Democrats—so Hartmann and Palmer’s refusal threw the election in the swing state briefly into chaos. They later did certify the vote counts, then tried to rescind their certifications, though it was too late. Hartmann, who said on Facebook that vaccine passports resembled Nazi Germany’s draconian laws, is the latest in a long line of vocal vaccine opponents, often outspoken Republicans, to die of the respiratory illness.

The courts have already ruled Trump dos not have executive privilege. So this looks like another criminal referral is on the way.




Ex-Adviser Peter Navarro: Trump Ordered Me to Defy Congressional Subpoena

Former Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro wrote to a House committee investigating the Trump administration’s response to the fall 2020 COVID-19 surge that he will defy their subpoena for documents on a “direct order” from Donald Trump.

The direct order cited by Navarro in his letter to Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC), the committee chairman, is a public statement Trump issued last month urging “Peter Navarro to protect executive privilege and not let these unhinged Democrats discredit our great accomplishments.” House Democrats released Navarro’s response to the November subpoena on Sunday, along with Clyburn’s reply, which included him scorning the ex-adviser. “Your blanket refusal to comply with the subpoena in its entirety is improper,” Clyburn wrote. “It is abundantly clear that you possess information responsive to the subpoena that is not covered by any colorable claims of executive privilege.”

Navarro fought with government scientists over the federal response to the pandemic and was accused of prioritizing Trump’s election-fraud lies. The former trade adviser risking being held in contempt of Congress follows former Trump strategist Stephen Bannon being indicted on two counts of contempt of Congress for refusing to share information to a House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Man whose wife won a court battle to treat his COVID-19 with ivermectin has died
Mike Argento, York Daily Record
Mon, December 13, 2021, 11:25 AM


Keith Smith, whose wife had gone to court to have his COVID-19 infection treated with ivermectin, died Sunday evening, a week after he received his first dose of the controversial drug.

He was 52.

Smith had been in UMPC Memorial for nearly three weeks and had been in the hospital’s intensive care unit in a medically induced coma on a ventilator since Nov. 21. He had been diagnosed with the virus on Nov. 10.

His wife of 24 years, Darla, had gone to court to compel UPMC to treat her husband with ivermectin, an anti-parasitic drug that has not been approved for treatment of COVID-19.

York County Court Judge Clyde Vedder’s Dec. 3 decision did not compel the hospital to treat Keith with the drug, but it did allow Darla to have an independent physician administer it. He received two doses before Keith’s condition grew worse, and the doctor halted the treatment.


Keith Smith's wife went to court to compel UPMC Memorial to treat his COVID-19 infection with ivermectin. He died Sunday after receiving two doses of the controversial drug.
nning.

“Tonight, around 7:45 p.m., my precious husband breathed his last breath,” Darla wrote on the website caringbridge.org.

He died with Darla and their two sons, Carter and Zach, at his bedside. Darla wrote they had time to speak to Keith, separately and as a group, before he passed away. “My boys are so strong,” she wrote. “They are my rock of solace.”

Last moments
She described his last moments.

“The nurses removed that cursed tube from his throat and he breathed on his own for a bit,” she wrote. “Then, slowly, the time between breaths lengthened. His heart hammered in his chest. Such a strong, valiant heart. Finally his pulse went to zero, his color paled immediately.

“The man in that bed did not look like Keith. He was gaunt, with scabs on his cheeks from three weeks of torture, having that godforsaken vent attached to his face. He had a full beard and mustache. His hair had grown like a wild man.”

'A Hail Mary'
Darla had sued UPMC to treat her husband with ivermectin after reading about similar cases throughout the country, all filed by an attorney in Buffalo, N.Y. She was assisted by a group called Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance, which promotes the use of ivermectin in the treatment of the virus.

Whether the drug is effective in treating COVID-19 is unproven and studies cited by its proponents have been dismissed as being biased and including incomplete or nonexistent data. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not approved the use of the drug to treat COVID-19, and the National Institutes of Health does not recommend its use. It is not included in UPMC’s COVID-19 treatment protocols.

He received his first dose on Dec. 5, two days after Vedder’s decision in the court case. After Keith received a second dose, the doctor overseeing the drug’s administration – a physician not affiliated with UPMC – ended the treatment as Keith’s condition deteriorated.

Darla had written previously that she was unsure whether ivermectin could help her husband, but it was worth a try. The use of the drug was described as “a Hail Mary” intended as a last-ditch effort to save Keith’s life. (She would not say whether her husband had been vaccinated.)

She was angry with UPMC for refusing to administer the treatment, forcing her to sue, and for delaying the treatment for two days as the hospital grappled with the meaning of the court order while Darla arranged to have an independent nurse administer the drug. Citing privacy laws, UPMC had previously declined to disclose details of the case or Keith’s treatment.

She had kind words for the nurses at UPMC, writing “I still love you.” She wrote, “You cared for Keith for over 21 days. You dosed him with the medicines the doctors prescribed. You cleaned him and groomed him, moved him, propped him up, dealt with every mess, every smell, every trial. Everything. I appreciate you.

“That’s all I’ll say about UPMC at this time,” she wrote. “You’re incredibly lucky to have the nurses you do, jackwads. Treat them better.”

An engineer, a Penn State fan and a Christian
Keith Smith was a structural engineer, a vice president of a firm headquartered in Lancaster. He was a graduate of Penn State and was an avid fan of the Nittany Lions football team. He was active, his wife said, and enjoyed woodworking and skiing.

And he was a devout Christian. His wife told a story about a trip to Baltimore. The family had passed a homeless man on the sidewalk, and as Darla and his sons walked ahead, Keith stopped to speak to him, and after hearing his story, gave the man some money. Darla chastised him for it, saying the man was just going to spend the money on drugs, but Keith told her he said he wanted something to eat, and Keith wanted to help him, a demonstration of his faith.


This photo of Darla and Keith Smith was attached as an exhibit in her lawsuit against UPMC Memorial.
“If heaven is indeed real, just as God should be real – but He chose to not reveal Himself, and I will never, ever in a million years understand why – then I know that Keith is at peace,” Darla wrote.

Her husband’s death has shaken Darla’s faith.

“And God? Remains to be seen,” she wrote. “At the moment we are not on speaking terms and we may never be again. I don't know. We are where we are.”

'I want to erase all of this'
She had been looking for signs. Earlier Sunday, she wrote, she was vacuuming when she saw a pack of eight deer in the yard of her family’s home in the Out Door Country Club area of Manchester Township. “It was weird,” she wrote, a sight she had never seen before in her suburban neighborhood.

Later, she spoke to Keith’s parents, who live in South Carolina, and his mother told her that a gaggle of wild turkeys had appeared in their yard earlier in the week. Keith’s mother also told her that a rose bloomed right outside a window, despite the temperatures dropping into the 20s at night. “No one could explain why a massive rose would pop up like that and stubbornly stay in place and live,” she wrote. “We thought it was a sign. I thought a lot of things were signs.”

She wrote, “I don’t want to remember my husband in that awful bed with that monstrous tube stuck in his throat. I want to erase the IVs, the wires, the lines, the feeding tube. I want to erase all of this.”

She wrote that she had picked up a prescription for ivermectin the day before Thanksgiving. “I could have given him the drug on the sly. Yes, they would have caught me.” She described preparing the drug in a sterilized Rubbermaid cup to sneak it into the hospital before the court ruled on her lawsuit. “In the end, I didn't do it,” she wrote. “And that will forever be a cloak of guilt that will cover me in shame.”

Instead, she wrote, “I waited for the stupid court order, a nine-day delay from the date I picked up the script in Paoli. Then, UPMC played nasty, vile, wicked games for two days and delayed further.”

She wrote, “The only thing keeping me upright is sheer hate and venom. Don't lecture me - DO NOT. If you've been through this, you know precisely what this feels like. I hope it is momentary, but I'm pretty nasty when cornered, so don't hold your breath. And, if you haven't been through this, drop to your knees and thank GOD that He hasn't dumped this on you. Thank your lucky freaking stars. But do NOT, ever, lecture me or judge me. There but for God's grace go you. Trust me, you do not want this burden.”

She concluded, “My heart will always have a Keith-sized hole in it. It will never go away. I will miss him until the day I expire.”

Supreme Court rejects religious challenge to New York vaccine mandate

Reuters
December 13, 2021






(Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday rejected a challenge to New York's refusal to allow religious exemptions to its mandate that certain healthcare workers in the state be vaccinated against COVID-19.

Acting in two cases, the justices denied emergency requests for an injunction requiring the state to allow religious exemptions while litigation over the mandate's legality continues in lower courts.

Conservative Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito and Neil Gorsuch said they would have granted the injunction.

Gosh thanks thinskin!

Well, but wait. The article gives us estimated infections, and estimated hospitalizations, and estimated deaths.
But, no explanation of how they came up with those numbers.
No explanation of any assumptions made, or why those assumptions, or the margin for error.
Just a bunch of numbers that fit an agenda, which, by the way, is 'WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!"
Why is that, do you suppose?

Seriously. If Omicron is replacing Delta, or if we get Omicron and it helps us avoid Covid, we ought to be celebrating it, not running from it, don't you agree?

 

Hey Thinskin, here's an article that has more reliable facts for you to mull.

Just imagine the money these investors are making off of this. They don't care about our health one bit. This is the biggest smash and grab of all time. If they cared about our health and well-being there would been many other changes why before this. It's not political it's about making a fortune for these families.
