I’ll call it over when we have it under control through a flu season. Until then we need to plan for its inevitable return this fall and work like MFers on treatments. Never said we shouldn’t prepare for next season. We have the ability to do that now, without reverting to the surrender position of telling everyone to stay inside. 1

Without all the details/ minutiae this is the conclusion that Fauci had when initially asked about the wearing of masks. We are not a mask / facecover wearing culture, so in the recesses of our mind masks have a sinister and mysterious connotation. They keep us at a heightened sense of risk/ fear and that is really the intention. 2

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted May 16, 2020 Posted May 16, 2020 ...if and IF I read correctly recently, there was a component in the CARES Act that provided funding through the Medicare vehicle.....and it actually provides three times as much for a Covid-19 "reported death".....see link below to USA Today article...looks like money to be made for exaggerated numbers.... As US coronavirus death toll mounts, so does the belief by some that it is exaggerated By Robert Gearty | Fox News There’s a reason why some people believe government officials are exaggerating the number of COVID-19 fatalities. One problem is the hodgepodge way states tally those numbers, Fox News has found. Some states count presumed coronavirus deaths along with confirmed cases under Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance issued last month. Other states don’t count those deaths. Deaths have been classified as a COVID-19 death even after a physician or loved ones reported otherwise. And those who died “with" COVID-19 have been included in the count with those who died “of" COVID-19. “I think a lot of clinicians are putting that condition (COVID-19) on death certificates when it might not be accurate because they died with coronavirus and not of coronavirus,” Macomb County, Mich., Chief Medical Examiner Daniel Spitz in an interview with the Ann Arbor News last month. “Are they entirely accurate? No,” Spitz said. “Are people dying of it? Absolutely. Are people dying of other things and coronavirus is maybe getting credit? Yeah, probably.” The doctor also told Fox News that he believes there are people who died of COVID-19, but weren't counted. Determining a COVID-19 death is based on each doctor's best clinical impression and that varies, he said. https://www.foxnews.com/us/as-u-s-coronavirus-death-toll-mounts-so-does-the-belief-it-is-exaggerated from USA Today..

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted May 16, 2020 Posted May 16, 2020 ...MSM is gonna be PO'ed.............. Colorado amends coronavirus death count - says fewer have died of COVID-19 than previously thought By Robert Gearty | Fox News Colorado has made a stunning and significant change to the way it counts COVID-19 deaths that reduced the statewide figure from more than 1,000 to 878, according to a report. The change came after Colorado’s Department of Public Health admitted that its COVID-19 death toll was counting those who tested positive for the coronavirus but had died of other causes, Fox 31 Denver reported late Friday. The department now says 1,150 Coloradoans who died had COVID-19 but only 878 of those deaths were “due to” COVID-19. https://www.foxnews.com/us/colorado-lowers-coronavirus-death-count 3 1 2
