U.S. admits 10,000 deaths from the virus in January alone

With death tolls rising, are we prepared for this pandemic?


The Center for Disease Control projects 19 million Americans infected and 10,000 deaths in just the month of January alone with the new virus sweeping the country. Yet despite media demands, the CDC refuses to admit this is a national emergency and take steps to contain this pandemic.

Wait...January?

Yes, that's right. 10,000 dead in January alone and no, I lied, the media did not demand the CDC admit this was a national emergency nor did anyone even consider for an instant that we attempt to contain what no one calls a pandemic.

It's just another typical month for the flu in the U.S.

Meanwhile, as February comes to a close, the total deaths from madcowdiseaseCoronavirus from December through this month worldwide is only approximately 3000.

“In the U.S., it’s really a fear based on media and this being something new,” Dr. Jennifer Lighter, hospital epidemiologist at NYU Langone Health, said of the new coronavirus. “When in reality, people can take measures to protect themselves against the flu, which is here and prevalent and has already killed 10,000 people.”

In a typical year in the U.S. 30,000 to 50,000 die from the flu. This number almost entirely consists of elderly people with underlying chronic diseases. Despite the January figures, 2020 looks to be a typical flu season in the U.S.

So why the media fueled frenzy about ebolaoutbreakCoronavirus? Does it have a higher mortality rate than normal? Some have pegged it at 2%. While that would be ten times greater than a typical flu virus. The great 1918 flu pandemic claimed 2.5%. But Dr. Lighter does not think this is the case with birdfluCoronavirus.

“I think we’re going to find that the mortality number is going to be lower,” Lighter said. “There is more than likely many times that number of people that have mild (cases) or are asymptomatic.”

“It may end up being comparable to a bad flu season,” Lighter added.

There is a universal assumption that we can't depend upon China's numbers. That is also true for total infections being reported as well. But what can we gleen from numbers coming in from the rest of the world?

Taking out China and Iran, we find that in the rest of the world, the H1N1swinefluCoronavirus mortality rate is only 1%. Remember, that number is from reported cases. The actual mortality rate is much, much lower.

ie, it's the flu folks.

So why the media frenzy to the point where the stock market crashes?

Well, I was wondering why we were about to see a media frenzy weeks ago when the Netflix documentary Pandemic was released in January. You see, for a project like that, it typically takes upwards of 9 months from the time a script is written to when it goes on air. Which means the movie was either a timely coincidence or a well planned orchestrated event.

Which it was would depend upon what the media did next. If coincidence, then the word "pandemic" wouldn't become a household word in the weeks to come. If orchestrated event, then the word would be on the lips of every newsman in America immediately.

Yeah, you thought I was about to post a video where the media is saying SARSCoronavirus every second. I don't have to, it just flashed through your brain because it's true and you've been subjected to it nonstop for weeks on end.

So why? Naturally, I thought of Crisis Overload. That's where the mind starts shutting down every news event that comes to their attention because they feel overwhelmed with one crises after another. A well known trick of TPTB and the Media of the 1%. My next thought was this was simply a way to ignore other news items. I finally decided it was probably both. Make some Americans tune out completely and then ignore the issue that would enrage the rest.

But I couldn't find this issue we were supposed to be overlooking. War with Iran? Nah, that's just part of the Kabuki theater of Impeach Trump, which was simply to get him some sympathy so he might beat Sanders if necessary. And it's looking necessary. Avoid talking about Sanders? Well, they do a good job avoiding that already. I couldn't think of the reason for this latest fear mongering.

Then the market crashed.

Now, I'm not worried about the 1%ers, they never lose their money when the market crashes. They use that as an opportunity to gobble up even more of the worlds resources. Who do you think is buying right now? How will the economic crash affect the class warfare being waged? Because this fake panicdemic is being created by our media as part of the ongoing class warfare constantly being waged against us.

It isn't to fuck Trump over. He's 1% despite everyone claiming he's an outsider. he's not.

It doesn't seem to affect Bernie, but I suppose time will tell.

Then I thought to myself: Why do they ever do it? They repeat this seemingly pointless operation every few years. The only difference is this year, in seeming honor of Trumps war on Mexican immigrants, they named it the Coronavirus. Then I realized Shakespeare was right, that sometimes a pandemic hoax by any other name is still just a pandemic hoax and the purpose of it is to keep us at a heightened level of general fear and uneasiness.

That's how they've kept us slaves all this time and stolen all our liberties.

Sound a bit odd? This is a fear mongering bonanza.

Shaping american psyche in an election year has just gotten

Next they release the neuro-virus V2.1 and force mass
quarantine, almost as soon as the berners revolt.

Seems a bit contrived and convenient.

Prior to 1970, we did not have the means to distinguish these more exotic viruses from the influenza they resemble. In fact, they were usually labeled as "flu".

Then I thought to myself: Why do they ever do it? They repeat this seemingly pointless operation every few years. The only difference is this year, in seeming honor of Trumps war on Mexican immigrants, they named it the Coronavirus. Then I realized Shakespeare was right, that sometimes a pandemic hoax by any other name is still just a pandemic hoax and the purpose of it is to keep us at a heightened level of general fear and uneasiness.

I can't really comment as to why they do it, but I know how they do it: good old FUD: Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt. FUD fuels nearly all conspiracy theories, medical quackery, and other such lies. And these in turn, as you correctly point out, keep us slaves all this time and steal all our liberties.

Swallowing codswallop is never a good idea. And FUD is a killer.

According to "marketwatch.com", (an organization who obviously supports spending money on "prescriptions"...)

The 2017-2018 flu season was the deadliest in more than four decades with 80,000 deaths caused by the flu, including 180 children. And it looks like the virus is back with a vengeance for winter 2019-2020, which is on track to be just as bad, as seen on this CDC graph.

snip

Flu activity peaks between December and February, so now is the time to protect yourself and your family. The average household spends $338 on over-the-counter medications every year, which ramps up during cold and flu season, and $328 billion on prescription retail drugs available at pharmacies.

Regarding the usual flu season, I had no idea until recently that, during the 2017-2018 flu season, there were 80,000 flu deaths in the U.S. alone.

Umm, Isn't the rapture supposed to start with Israel getting nuked?

Not quite. First, Israel has to bring all the Tribes back home to Philistia Palestine. Then, all Islamic presence on the Temple Mount must be removed so the Fourth Temple can be built. It is only when the Fourth Temple gets nuked (by RUSSIARUSSIARUSSIA!!1!!) that the Rupture can occur.

Small historical note: All this "Rapture" garbage is a very new innovation indeed. It was completely absent from the Christianity with which King James I/VI, Tsar Peter the Great, King Charles XII of Sweden, Pope Pius VIII, etc., would have recognized as such. It is the exclusive product of the "Second Great Awakening", which had as proponents John Nelson Darby in Britain and William Miller in the USA.

I really need to get going on the essay "Why John Calvin Should Have Been Aborted".....

"We'll know our disinformation program is complete when everything the American public believes is false." ---- William Casey, CIA Director, 1981

This whole coronavirus thing has me confused. I'm getting emails from my kids school to "be prepared" and "stock up" while also hearing that 70% of people infected have only normal cold/flu symptoms. WTF is going on here is what I want to know. Killing old and/or immunocompromised people is not uncommon for a serious virus (ie flu), so what is going on here? So far it's been reported that children have a low mortality rate. Seems suspicious to me. Is this thing engineered to effect the old? Get rid of the system drainers (ie: the old), while protecting the young? This whole thing just doesn't make sense to me.

No genuine (i.e., direct) evidence exists that the Coronavirus was "engineered" by humans in any way, shape, or form, for any reason whatsoever. `Unless and until someone releases such direct evidence, the entire idea that the Coronavirus is "engineered" to accomplish some nefarious end is nothing other than worthless FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt) without factual backing. It's an attempt to manipulate you. Please don't buy into it.

As for causing greater mortality to the old than to the young, that pathological aspect is shared with nearly all other pathogens. Given equal infection, the older you are, the more likely it is that the infection will kill you. That's not a feature of any pathogen; it's a flaw in the design of our own framework.

I find the numbers on the COVID to be far different than the flu. If the numbers are correct, treating it as the flu means walking into a situation that REQUIRES medical martial law and means a glut of deaths to boot.

The Event 201 stuff and the Food Chain Reaction Game (aka: Globalist Crackdown Part II or the Black Horse) are known to me. I don't dare mention my real thoughts on this whole thing publicly. Certainly not here lest I be set upon by the reality based community for my heterodoxy to the globalist narrative.

I fear the economic, social, and political calamity far more than the virus. That said, I've been thinking triage. Treat the virus seriously, far more seriously than the flu to push the hockey stick down the road. That harms nobody. It does just slow the totalitarian roll, though.

If we walk into it, and the virus numbers are real, we've got a sharp bell curve that puts us clamoring to be at their mercy, and we give them a concrete reason to shut us up NOW with a quick boot to the face.

Drumpf's performance at his first briefing on it scared the shit out of me and had me calculating like crazy:
Does he know something we don't or is he really just an idiot?
How can one assess data and actions now that it is also politicized by party?
Is it globalists taking out the nationalists straight forward?
and a host of other questions that cannot be answered.

The two things I know are that the Corbett Report summary, and the rest of the nutters on this topic, are all far closer to the truth than what we are all experiencing in "reality" and the global food shortages that I wrote about in 2019 are greatly on my mind as we slow roll through this apocalypse.

I actually looked up the 4 horseman the other day, and it is completely fucking nuts:
White horse of Pestilence is riding across the planet as we speak (literally and symbolically - fact or fiction).
The Red horse of War - Gog and Magog were referenced in this thread as Turkey and Russia start to go hot - is being saddled up as we speak. And we're moving forward with provocative war games in Poland.
The Black horse of Famine is all shod up and waiting in the stable, and probably started his ride in 2019.

It is almost like a plan or an instruction manual. Talk about insanity...
