thegatewaypundit--2020-04-02--Larry C. Johnson: Corona Projections, Flawed Models versus Real Life Data

The panic surrounding the Corona pandemic is real , not imagined .
But the source of the panic comes from ignorance rather than the alleged lethality of Corona .
I understand why the average person with no medical training or background will hear the various shrill media reports and assume that everyone who tests positive will soon be on death ’ s door .
But that is not the truth .
The data that is being reported so fat shows that only 12 % of those who tested positive were admitted to a hospital in New York .
And only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ subsequently to an ICU .
While that number is not astronomical , it still creates significant problem because ICU beds represent only a small fraction of the Hospital beds available .
Take the Bronx Care Hospital Center as an example .
It has a total of 415 beds , but only 26 ICU beds and 11 Coronary Care beds ( the Coronary Care beds can be used as ICU beds ) .
In other words , only 9 % of the beds have the infrastructure and the nursing staff to support ventilators .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ benchmark , NYC has a total of 2139 ICU beds .
TRENDING : UN Wants a 10 % Global Tax to Pay for New “ Shared Responsibility ” Program to Address Coronavirus Pandemic The real problem is the lack of nurses qualified and trained to work in an ICU environment .
You can deploy 5000 ventilators but there are not enough nurses and Respiratory Therapy techs available to operate and maintain these machines .
Respiratory Therapy techs are unsung heroes because they are the ones who actually make the machines run .
The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ must be checked every hour and changed out every shift .
It is this human factor that is at the breaking point even if only 3000 ICU beds are needed in New York City .
Ford or Boeing can not mass produce these professionals .
I think there is a widespread belief that the U.S. Government–the CDC in particular–has a good grasp on the number of infections and patients .
But that does not appear to be true if the same methodology being used to count Influenza is being used for Corona .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ the CDC is NOT , I want to repeat that , NOT counting and then reporting the actual numbers of people who contract influenza or pneumonia during the current 2019/2020 Flu season Because influenza surveillance does not capture all cases of flu that occur in the U.S. , CDC provides these estimated ranges to better reflect the larger burden of influenza .
These estimates are calculated based on CDC ’ s weekly influenza surveillance data and are preliminary .
In other words , the US Government numbers on who is infected with the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dies is just an ESTIMATE based on a statistical methodology .
This raises some valid concerns about the numbers kicking around on the Corona virus .
Is the CDC using a different methodology ?
Are they actually counting tests that turn out positive ?
The numbers tell an important story .
A positive test for Corona does not mean that the person is deathly ill and must be admitted immediately to a hospital .
As I noted above , the data being reported by New York showed that only 12 % who tested @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Is that number holding true for all states ?
Is it true for other countries ?
When you look at the WHO data on various diseases you will discover that WHO is relying on statistical models as well for its projections .
The raw numbers for Corona , when compared to other infectious diseases , raises some legitimate questions about the disproportionate global panic .
As of 10pm edt on April 1 , 2020 there are 935,817 “ cases ” ( i.e.
, people who have tested positive ) .
The key @ @ @ @ @ @ @ How does that stack up with other infectious diseases ?
250 000 to 500 000 all-cause deaths globally .
Influenza–the World Health Organization ( WHO ) estimated the annual mortality burden of influenza to betoall-cause deaths globally .
Why is it that we can live normal lives with diseases such as Influenza , Tuberculosis and Malaria swirling around us but go into complete shutdown over Corona ?
It does not make sense .
Life is not risk free .
We learn to live with risk .
We need to learn to live with @ @ @ @

The panic surrounding the Corona pandemic is real, not imagined. But the source of the panic comes from ignorance rather than the alleged lethality of Corona. I understand why the average person with no medical training or background will hear the various shrill media reports and assume that everyone who tests positive will soon be on death’s door.
But that is not the truth. The data that is being reported so fat shows that only 12% of those who tested positive were admitted to a hospital in New York. And only 20% of that number were admitted subsequently to an ICU.
While that number is not astronomical, it still creates significant problem because ICU beds represent only a small fraction of the Hospital beds available. Take the Bronx Care Hospital Center as an example. It has a total of 415 beds, but only 26 ICU beds and 11 Coronary Care beds (the Coronary Care beds can be used as ICU beds). In other words, only 9% of the beds have the infrastructure and the nursing staff to support ventilators. If we use that number as a benchmark, NYC has a total of 2139 ICU beds.
The real problem is the lack of nurses qualified and trained to work in an ICU environment. You can deploy 5000 ventilators but there are not enough nurses and Respiratory Therapy techs available to operate and maintain these machines. Respiratory Therapy techs are unsung heroes because they are the ones who actually make the machines run. The tubes connecting the patient to the vent must be checked every hour and changed out every shift. It is this human factor that is at the breaking point even if only 3000 ICU beds are needed in New York City. Ford or Boeing cannot mass produce these professionals.

“My dad was talking to me,” Cuomo said, referring to his late father who died in 2015. “I was seeing people from college, people I haven’t seen in forever. It was freaky what I lived through last night, and it may happen again tonight.”
“This virus came at me, I’ve never seen anything like it,” Cuomo said, adding that he had a fever of around 103 degrees “that wouldn’t quit.”
“It was like somebody was beating me like a piñata,” he said. “I was shivering so much . . . I chipped my tooth — these are not cheap,” he said referring to his veneers.

thegatewaypundit--2020-04-02--HUGE! Total Cost of Coronavirus Shutdowns and Lockdowns Estimated at $34 Trillion – More than the US

HUGE! Total Cost of Coronavirus Shutdowns and Lockdowns Estimated at $34 Trillion – More than the US GDP!

The folks at the conservative website Grassfire put together their estimate for the costs of the shutdowns related to the coronavirus and the amount is staggering : At the end of February , reports indicated the stock market lost $ 6 trillion in valuation based on a drop of the Dow Jones Average from a high of 29,551 to 25,429 in the first wave of coronavirus crisis slides .
Until we find a site that states the total loss due to the coronavirus crisis , based on the $ 6 trillion slide , we are estimating the total loss as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 18,591 ) to be : TRENDING : UN Wants a 10 % Global Tax to Pay for New “ Shared Responsibility ” Program to Address Coronavirus Pandemic They say those are “ paper losses ” and the market was “ due for a correction.

On March 20 , Goldman Sachs drastically lowered its U.S. economic projections and is now expecting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 3.8 % this year , as opposed to the projection at the outset of the year of 2 % growth .
It took America about three years to get back to the level of GDP output after the 2008-2009 recession .
Based on this data , we project the LOSS in GDP due to the coronavirus crisis : The U.S. Federal Reserve of St. Louis is projecting the possibility of up to 47 million lost jobs ( 32.1 % unemployment ) , which is far greater than the Great Depression ( 24.9 % @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cost ?
One study after the 2008-2009 recession found that losing your job during that recession cost the person $ 112,000 over the next 25 years .
In today ’ s dollars , that ’ s $ 135,000 .
Using this estimate , that means the COVID-19 economic shutdown cost U.S. workers : All the emergency stimulus efforts of Congress are simply adding to the piles and piles of debt .
So the added debt is a real cost that someone will have to pay .
At some point , we will pay @ @ @ @ @ @ @ In the long run , we ’ re saddling our children and grandchildren with an impossible debt burden .
And what is the U.S. cost ?
One estimate says the global spending bill from coronavirus will be $ 10 trillion .
Here ’ s what we know about the cost of the U.S. coronavirus spending bills : • Phase Two : No one knows ; one estimate is $ 100 billion ( also called “ chump change ” in D.C. ) .
• Phase Three : Not yet passed , but the original @ @ @ @ @ @ @ so the Senate went for $ 2 trillion , and the House just upped the ante to $ 2.2 trillion • But wait… the Phase Three stimulus actually created an additional $ 4.5 trillion in borrowing through a “ helicopter credit drop ” ( a manipulation to give the govt .

But wait !
Since we will never pay that money back ( the deficit only grows ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ years of interest , at say 2.5 % , and we get a grand total of : Total cost of new deficit spending : $ 14.28 TRILLION ( and counting ) Adding up all these costs up , we come to a grand total of : That ’ s more than the entire annual GDP of our country !

The folks at the conservative website Grassfire put together their estimate for the costs of the shutdowns related to the coronavirus and the amount is staggering:
1. Loss of Stock Market Valuation
At the end of February, reports indicated the stock market lost $6 trillion in valuation based on a drop of the Dow Jones Average from a high of 29,551 to 25,429 in the first wave of coronavirus crisis slides. Until we find a site that states the total loss due to the coronavirus crisis, based on the $6 trillion slide, we are estimating the total loss as of 3/31 (with the Dow at 18,591) to be:
Stock market loss in valuation: $10.5 TRILLION
They say those are “paper losses” and the market was “due for a correction.” Tell that to the retired couple depending on their stocks to live on during their retirement. Or the near-retirement age couple that just saw the goal of retirement fade away.
2. Direct Losses to the Economy (Lower GDP)
On March 20, Goldman Sachs drastically lowered its U.S. economic projections and is now expecting that that U.S. GDP will contract by 3.8% this year, as opposed to the projection at the outset of the year of 2% growth. It took America about three years to get back to the level of GDP output after the 2008-2009 recession. Based on this data, we project the LOSS in GDP due to the coronavirus crisis:
Direct Losses to U.S. Economy (GDP) $2.39 TRILLION
3. Loss of Jobs/Wages
The U.S. Federal Reserve of St. Louis is projecting the possibility of up to 47 million lost jobs (32.1% unemployment), which is far greater than the Great Depression (24.9% unemployment)
But what’s the cost? One study after the 2008-2009 recession found that losing your job during that recession cost the person $112,000 over the next 25 years. In today’s dollars, that’s $135,000. Using this estimate, that means the COVID-19 economic shutdown cost U.S. workers:
Losses in wages to unemployed workers: $5.264 TRILLION
4. More deficit government spending
All the emergency stimulus efforts of Congress are simply adding to the piles and piles of debt. So the added debt is a real cost that someone will have to pay. At some point, we will pay in a devaluation of our dollars. In the long run, we’re saddling our children and grandchildren with an impossible debt burden.
And what is the U.S. cost? One estimate says the global spending bill from coronavirus will be $10 trillion. Here’s what we know about the cost of the U.S. coronavirus spending bills:
Phase One: A paltry $8.3 billion
Phase Two: No one knows; one estimate is $100 billion (also called “chump change” in D.C.).
Phase Three: Not yet passed, but the original number of $1 trillion was mocked so the Senate went for $2 trillion, and the House just upped the ante to $2.2 trillion
But wait… the Phase Three stimulus actually created an additional $4.5 trillion in borrowing through a “helicopter credit drop” (a manipulation to give the govt. more borrowing power).
Which gives us a total of $6.81 trillion, so far. (Phase Four is coming.)
But wait! Since we will never pay that money back (the deficit only grows), let’s add in 30 years of interest, at say 2.5%, and we get a grand total of:
Total cost of new deficit spending: $14.28 TRILLION (and counting)
Adding up all these costs up, we come to a grand total of:
Total equals …. $32.434 TRILLION
That’s more than the entire annual GDP of our country!

We reported over the past two years how China’s economy was collapsing. You could feel it and there were many signs of China’s pending economic collapse. Was their response an Act of War?
The BBC reported in January that official China figures are out and the news is scary:
China’s economy grew last year at the slowest pace in almost three decades. Official figures show that the world’s second largest economy expanded by 6.1% in 2019 from the year before – the worst figure in 29 years. The country has faced weak domestic demand and the impact of the bitter trade war with the US. The government has been rolling out measures over the past two years in an attempt to boost growth. It comes after almost two years of trade tensions with the US – although hopes of a better relationship with America have seen improvements in manufacturing and business confidence data.
We’ve reported for months that President Trump had the US in the position that it could only win in a deal with China and this was the case. The US economy was on fire – more Americans were working than ever before, unemployment was at 50 year lows, wages were way up and the stock market was at record highs. But China was moving in the opposite direction.
The problem for China was that its economy is what helped the regime stay in power and it was collapsing. China needed a deal with the US. The country had given away millions in deals around the world and it had overbuilt at home. Then President Trump came and slowly moved business from China to other countries through various actions including tariffs.
China was no longer the leader of the world. It’s GDP was reduced to almost half of that of the US and it was in real economic trouble.
As we reported in a post in August 2019, President Trump recognized that China was in an all out war with the US in regards to information and economics.

Bannon was right. He said that China was at war with the US. He said this war had been going on for 20 years and had three fronts: informational, economic and kenetic (i.e. guns).
We reported in May that just like the US in 2008, a perfect storm was building in China. The excessive and extravagant construction projects, cash-flow challenges and lack of demand in China all could combine for a major financial disaster.
A financial meltdown was in the works in China
Over the past few decades, China opened its borders and corporations around the world fled to China due to its cheap capital and meager payroll costs.
The Chinese were relentless in their efforts to obtain Western technology and grow their economy. They set up trade barriers and manipulated their currency in ways that helped China. The US was at a disadvantage in trade resulting in massive deficits in the billions.
Along came the Trump Administration, the first administration to address China’s unfair trade advantage. The timing of Trump’s tariffs was not good for China as there were more pressing issues that had to be addressed.

The problem was that China over invested in these random properties all over China and these properties today remain empty.
(See below pictures of real estate projects in the middle of China (Hubei Province) – massive but mostly empty.)
There simply are not enough people in the area where these massive complexes were built that make enough money to afford living in these communities. It appears that the Chinese communists’ misunderstanding of supply and demand economics was their downfall.
Some say, no problem, China will just move all the peasants to these massive complexes but this would be devastating. First of all China needs to feed the people in these complexes. Secondly, as we have learned in the US, people on the dole with no work tend to get involved in drugs and crime. The human spirit needs a purpose – idle hands are the devil’s workshop!
These many properties throughout China still sit unoccupied, and there is a cost to this. Bloomberg reported in September 2018 about China –
Cash-to-short-term debt levels at more than 80 publicly traded real estate companies tracked by Bloomberg were 133 percent on average in the first half, the worst since the first six months of 2015 and down from 297 percent a year earlier. Almost a quarter of developers sport a ratio below 50 percent.
In addition, Bloomberg noted:
But while business has been booming, developers have also been piling on the debt. Firms have been selling more bonds in the domestic market — and at the cheapest rates as investors shrug off default concerns. Those with dollar-denominated obligations, meanwhile, face higher borrowing costs as the U.S. Federal Reserves continues on its tightening path.
The amount of debt related to China’s over development is massive. The total amount is unknown with S&P estimating the amount not reported by local communities and banks being over $6 trillion:
China may be sitting on a hidden debt pile of as much as 40 trillion yuan ($6 trillion), concealed off-balance-sheet by the country’s local governments, according to research from S&P Global Ratings. Many local governments in China raise debt and hold it off their balance sheet, in order to avoid lending limits imposed by central authorities. S&P says that this is a growing problem within the country, and that the amount of debt held this way has likely ballooned in recent years.
The government may have to take over these debts as they become insolvent –
Not only is the level of hidden debt held by local governments in the world’s second largest economy rising, but so too is the risk of those debts being defaulted on. Much of the debt is held by so-called local government financing vehicles (LGFVs), and S&P reports that central government may be willing to let these vehicles file for bankruptcy in the future. “Default risk of LGFVs is on the rise. China has opened up the possibility of insolvent LGFVs filing for bankruptcy, but managing the default aftermath is a formidable task for top leadership,” the report noted…. The country’s total non-financial sector debt, which includes household, corporate and government debt, will surge to almost 300% of GDP by 2022, up from 242% in 2016. Fears abound that if this debt pile continues to grow, a spectacular blow up could be imminent.
We’ve said for nearly a year that China’s financial crash may make the 2008 crash in the US look small. The implications would no doubt impact the entire world but we never saw China’s response coming .
Accurate data coming from China is just not available on nearly everything as we are learning every day but we do know that a coronavirus was unleashed in China near Wuhan in Hubei province sometime in late 2019.

Millions of Americans have lost their jobs. Small and large businesses have been destroyed. American’s life savings, at their peak a few weeks ago, have vanished.
China now has the audacity to complain about the coronavirus being labeled as the ‘China coronavirus’. China even accused the US of starting the virus. Outrageous!
By unleashing the coronavirus and destroying the entire world’s economy, the China regime maintains a hold over the people in China and claims its economic woes are due to the coronavirus. The regime can also say it is no worse than all the other countries around the world.
US media and politicians who repeat China’s talking points are creating treason and should be treated as such.
This clearly was an economic Act of War and should be treated as such. China should pay for this debacle and apologize to the US and the world.

RI Public School Teacher UNDER INVESTIGATION After Offering to Pay Someone With Coronavirus to Cough on President Trump

The Rhode Island public school teacher who tweeted an offer to pay someone with coronavirus to cough on President Donald Trump is now under investigation by the district following Gateway Pundit ’ s viral report .
A newly uncovered tweet from one of her alternate accounts also reveals serious racism directed towards black people .
As TGP previously reported , a 6th grade English as a Second Language teacher at Villa Nova Middle School in Woonsocket named Amy Bednarz used an anonymous account to offer money for someone for infecting the president .
The tweet read , “ Somebody with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cough on # Trump.
” TRENDING : UN Wants a 10 % Global Tax to Pay for New “ Shared Responsibility ” Program to Address Coronavirus Pandemic Bednarz deleted her entire Twitter account minutes after Gateway Pundit contacted her public Facebook page asking her to comment for the original report .
Local media in Rhode Island soon picked up the story and School Committee Chairman Paul Bourget told Turn to 10 News that “ he and superintendent Paul McGee have been discussing the tweet since Sunday night and that an investigation started Monday.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ is a “ serious matter ” and that a decision about her continued employment is expected by the April 8 School Committee meeting .
He also said that the investigation is ongoing as they are working to get “ concrete evidence and a concrete determination.
” As we previously reported , Bednarz posted about her employment on the Twitter account , as well as photos of her cat .
The previous main photo on the account also just-so-happened to be of Bednarz .
Rhode Island Education Commissioner Angelica Infante-Green responded to an aggregated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ report on another website , saying that “ it is unprofessional and sends the wrong message during a time when our whole education community is setting a national example .
This is not acceptable and certainly not representative of the overwhelming majority of RI teachers.
” When Bednarz isn ’ t calling for biological terrorism , she also has a bad habit of harassing school choice advocates on social media , including threatening the children of Keri Rodriguez , the president of the National Parents Union .
Bednarz ’ hostility towards Rodriguez has @ @ @ @ @ @ @ blog detailing her experiences with the teacher — which included threats against her family and repeatedly calling her on the telephone .
Bednarz is notorious for her abuse among the school choice crowd and has also used the accounts “ @ teacher_ell ” and “ @ teacher_this , ” according to Corey A. DeAngelis , the Director of School Choice at the Reason Foundation .
The teacher even unwisely used her Facebook photo as her main photo on one of the other accounts that she used to harass people .
Shockingly , Bednarz @ @ @ @ @ @ @ be victims.
” According to Great Schools , 10 % of the students at Villa Nova Middle School are black .
In a 2019 tweet , Bednarz wrote that it was her first year teaching 6th grade .
She was working at an elementary school in Massachusetts in 2018 .
The accounts were littered with hateful and bitter anti-Trump and anti-Republican partisan political messaging .
Bednarz also has a “ professional ” account with her real name , “ @ amybbednarz.
” The teacher previously worked as an ELL teacher in the Brockton @ @ @ @ @ @ @ districts in Massachusetts .
She is currently listed on the faculty list for Villa Nova , though her name is misspelled in the directory .

thegatewaypundit--2020-04-03--Former Obama Adviser Predicts Massive Turnout For Trump In November – Huge Disadvantage For Biden

David Plouffe played a major role in Obama ’ s 2008 election .
He may be a liberal , but he understands how elections work .
He is now predicting that the Coronavirus crisis will not have a negative impact on turnout among Trump voters .
It will , however , put Joe Biden at a disadvantage .
TRENDING : UN Wants a 10 % Global Tax to Pay for New “ Shared Responsibility ” Program to Address Coronavirus Pandemic Ex-Obama adviser Plouffe predicts ‘ historic ’ turnout for Trump , says Biden now at a disadvantage The coronavirus pandemic @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump ’ s supporters from turning out in November , which makes the incumbent “ very dangerous ” to Democratic front-runner Joe Biden , former Obama adviser David Plouffe told the “ Fox News Rundown ” podcast Thursday .
“ You look at the economic situation and say , ‘ How can an incumbent win in that ?
’ But , you know , no one ’ s blaming Trump for the damage , ” Plouffe explained .
” … I think if you can lay his crisis response at his feet and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ do think that ’ s some headwind he ’ s got to run into.
” “ But , ” Plouffe continued , “ almost no matter what happens , [ the question is ] can Donald Trump win Wisconsin ?
Can he win Michigan ?
Can he win Pennsylvania ?
Can he win Florida ?
’ Sure , because his base is so solid .
And I think he ’ s going to turn out voters almost at a historical level on his behalf , so that makes him very dangerous if you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ campaigning has ground to a halt due to the pandemic , Biden has been virtually out of the spotlight , which Plouffe said puts him at a disadvantage as President Trump remains on the front lines of the crisis .
“ There ’ s nothing he [ Biden ] can do about it .
He ’ s not in office .
He ’ s not a governor .
He ’ s not the president .
And truthfully , [ New York Govornor ] Andrew Cuomo , [ California Govornor ] Gavin Newsom … @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from those folks because they ’ re the folks making decisions.
” Look .

Biden doesn ’ t really have a chance even with all this going on .

You know , at the briefing yesterday Trump brought out a bunch of military people , said we ’ re gon na put the U.S. military in action interdicting drugs coming into our country .
I got people @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this , we ’ re gon na use the military for drug interdiction ?
I can ’ t believe it.
” You know what my response was ?
This is excellent .
This is Donald Trump showing he can handle any number of crises simultaneously and that the United States is not gon na be crippled or shut down or taken advantage of .
That ’ s what he was saying .
Trump is doing an excellent job managing this crisis .
Voters will reward him for that in November .

Ex-Obama adviser Plouffe predicts ‘historic’ turnout for Trump, says Biden now at a disadvantage The coronavirus pandemic and struggling economy will not deter President Trump’s supporters from turning out in November, which makes the incumbent “very dangerous” to Democratic front-runner Joe Biden, former Obama adviser David Plouffe told the “Fox News Rundown” podcast Thursday. “You look at the economic situation and say, ‘How can an incumbent win in that?’ But, you know, no one’s blaming Trump for the damage,” Plouffe explained. ” … I think if you can lay his crisis response at his feet and connect that to the economy, I do think that’s some headwind he’s got to run into.” “But,” Plouffe continued, “almost no matter what happens, [the question is] can Donald Trump win Wisconsin?

And I think he’s going to turn out voters almost at a historical level on his behalf, so that makes him very dangerous if you’re Joe Biden.” As normal campaigning has ground to a halt due to the pandemic, Biden has been virtually out of the spotlight, which Plouffe said puts him at a disadvantage as President Trump remains on the front lines of the crisis. “There’s nothing he [Biden] can do about it.

You know, at the briefing yesterday Trump brought out a bunch of military people, said we’re gonna put the U.S. military in action interdicting drugs coming into our country.

BREAKING: New York Data Confirms Once Again – 99% of Coronavirus Fatalities Have Pre-Existing Conditions – 94% of Fatalities Over Age 45! …Open The Economy!

It ’ s very difficult to find the numbers – as if they are being hidden .
The reason may be because the actual numbers of coronavirus fatalities indicate the China coronavirus is not nearly as deadly as heralded by the Mainstream media and the results are similar to flu-like data .
Initial data out of New York show a pattern consistent with the rest of the world – the elderly and the sick are almost exclusively at risk by the coronavirus .
Individuals without pre-existing conditions and younger Americans under the age of 65 are at a very very @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Steve Elliott Grassfire reports today that the “ New York Coronavirus Data Confirms EVERYTHING about age and condition of victims , meaning it ’ s time for a more targeted strategy ” .
Data was finally located related to the China coronavirus deaths in New York : TRENDING : UN Wants a 10 % Global Tax to Pay for New “ Shared Responsibility ” Program to Address Coronavirus Pandemic We ’ ve been searching and searching for REAL U.S. DATA on COVID-19 deaths by age , and it ’ s been mostly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the CDC that “ 80 % ” of those who died were over 60 .
Until we saw from market-ticker.org that New York City posted death by age and condition data for the city ( as of April 2 ) .
And the numbers confirm EVERYTHING the global data has been saying ( and perhaps our government and the media have been hiding ? )
.
Namely that : * The VAST MAJORITY of the victims are older ( NYC , 70 % 65 and over ) * Very few are under 50 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) * Almost NO teenagers or children ( NYC , one death under 18 , or .07 % ) * Only a fraction have NO OTHER HEALTH CONDITIONS ( 1.29 % ) This is exactly what we have been saying for the past few months .
The China coronavirus is being over engineered by the media to create panic and destroy the livelihoods of millions of Americans and innocent citizens around the world .
These numbers from New York are consistent with the numbers from China and Italy : The devastation economically and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this situation are the absolute cause for concern .
And there it is and that is that .
Never take what the media is telling you as the Gospel truth .
Never .
We are killing the economy because of the China coronavirus , which like the flu , kills the elderly and the sick .
We have never acted this insane for the flu .
