The above chart is both disturbing and significant in understanding what the federal government is (purposely) doing to the American people, their electorate, and their economy.
It shows the result of an added log on the COVID-19 hysteria bonfire, intended to keep Americans from acting like, well, Americans for as long as possible, in hopes that the current president might be removed and the march toward globalism might resume.
March 24, 2020, could, in the words of FDR, be “a date which will live in infamy”, provided the American people treat the domestic government who opposes them as they did a foreign nation who attacked them.
For on March 24, 2020, the National Vital Statistics System (NVSS) sent guidance for those involved in reporting causes of death in the U.S., regarding how to accurately capture mortality data for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) on death certificates:
- A new International Classification of Diseases (ICD) Code, U07.1 would be used for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) ,
- Code U07.1 to appear if COVID-19 caused “or is assumed to have caused or contributed to death”; a confirmed positive test is not required,
- Code U07.1 to appear if death certificate reports “probable COVID-19” or “likely COVID-19”,
- The expectation is COVID19 will be listed as the underlying cause more often than not, and
- The new code, along with the recommended listings, were to be used immediately.
Translation: the federal government’s message to those who create death certificates:
- We need ‘RONA numbers, y’all!
- If it’s close, then it’s the virus!
- When in doubt, ‘RONA took ’em out!
And the very next day: “Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a new ‘RONA daily death record! 223!”
A week later, as my late grandfather would say, to the death certifiers, “Now, you cookin’ with GAS!” Another Record ‘RONA Report, on April Fools Day – how apropos – 865! But we were just warming up. The next day, another ‘RONA Record – 1,106 dead.
Now, look again at the image atop this post. Is this coming into focus for you yet? Isn’t it an interesting coincidence how the exponential – and frightening – increase in reported COVID-19 deaths occurs immediately after death certifiers were told to list COVID-19 on more death certificates?
A quote often attributed to Josef Stalin reads: “It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.” Well, it would appear there is now a public health scare corollary:
“It is enough that the people know there were deaths. The people who die determine nothing. The people who say how they died determine everything.”
Remember, experts predicted deaths would peak by mid-April, That could be as much – or more – the result of data manipulation than data modeling.
Now that the federal government is artificially increasing the number of reported COVID-19 deaths, what might that mean to the “flattening the curve” rhetoric of Dr. Anthony “Doc L’il Bit” Fauci and others?
Flattening the curve is not about minimizing the number of those who die from a disease outbreak, neither is it done to shorten the duration of the outbreak; flattening the curve is about not allowing the number of active cases to exceed available healthcare resources (hospital beds, medicines, etc.). Compared to the disease running its natural course, it is entirely possible – even likely – that flattening its curve will result in more infections…and more deaths…and over a longer period of time.
This is especially true when “flat curve advocates” acknowledge failure to control the outbreak at all. So, COVID-19 death tolls are being “adjusted” upward and – consequently? – the curve is far from flattening. So what is going on?
How about the hospital overcrowding about which the Trump administration warned the nation and for which some states are preparing? That should generate more questions than panic.
The CDC estimates, during the current and ongoing flu season, between 400,000 and 730,000 have been hospitalized; there have been no reports of overcrowded hospitals, as there were in 2018. Did hospitals increase their capacity so they could better respond to a bad flu season? If not, then this years’ hospitalizations should have caused the same reports as 2 years ago. If adjustments were made, then why are the relatively few COVID-19 cases creating an overcrowded situation?
Then there are the state and local shutdowns. While it is not uncommon for a bad flu season to cause school closures or cancel events, as occurred in 2018, it is strange, at the least to shut down major cities in America, and entire states. As a result, businesses are involuntarily shuttered, workers forced into idleness, government decides whose activities are essential and, perhaps most egregious, government is now regulating worship in America, a nation, in part, founded upon the notion that government would be forbidden to do any such thing.
And Americans, normally revered for their bravado and courage, are now encouraged to abandon those attributes and instead hide in their homes, where money hoard toilet paper and basic foods. Consequently, the U.S. has gone from a nation that’s not seen recession in a decade to one that braces for the economic version of the zombie apocalypse.
All because of a virus, whose medical impact pales in comparison to that of 5 other viral threats to human beings – including the flu – and, if the American medical bureaucracy would stop lying about the number of COVID-19 deaths, would likely be regarded is what it is – a lesser threat than, well, the flu.
This now paralyzing fear has been relentlessly encouraged by the American press, a disingenuous bureaucrat in Fauci, who preaches tests and distancing, and whose opposition to hydroxylchloroquine is being ignored at hospitals such as Johns Hopkins, UCLA Medical Center, and Boston’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital, by doctors who actually treat patients.
The damage from the fear that has encouraged government overreach is already extensive:
- Millions of lost jobs, here and around the world,
- Loss of community, as Americans avoid each other to “save lives”, and
- A massive and deceptive raid on the US Treasury.
The recently signed Stimulus Package was reported as an obscene $2.2 Trillion piece of legislation. Why was it obscene? The $787 Billion Obama Stimulus:
- Wound up costing an extra $44 Billion,
- Produced none of the “shovel-ready” projects Obama promised,
- Added an estimated $787 billion to deficits between 2009–2019, and
- Preceded the weakest postwar economic recovery on record.
Well, if $787 Billion to $831 Billion of stimulus could wreak that much havoc, what might more than 2 and 1/2 times that amount do to the American economy…
And then the nation learned, as the president signed the package into law, that only a third of the story had been told:
Through fake news, manufactured fear, bureaucratic lying, and political sleight-of-hand, the Deep State, once considered limited to the Intelligence and Foreign Affairs communities, have made cowards of the American people, damaged their livelihoods, and stole their Treasure. They did promise to tip the people for their jelly-back cooperation…eventually.
So, after 5 years of attacking Donald Trump to get to the American people – regarding things which shamed him not and about which the people did not care, the country’s political and ideological left took dead aim at the American people, using a minor virus to create a a serious crisis…then not letting it go to waste.
The goal is to humble America, to have her surrender her exceptionalism, and her positions of leadership in the world, and make history’s greatest nation neither better nor different than on any other. Simply put, it is easier to subdue all of the nations if the American nation no longer leads them.
Fortunately, the American capitulation is not complete. People are growing less comfortable with arbitrary government restrictions. Experts and government officials are walking away from the high death projections. And, as cold and flu season winds down, COVID-19, like SARS before it, and as the flu does every year, will go dormant.
So, time for progressives and leftists to break the American will is now a race against warmer temperatures. It will require generating a ridiculous number of b.s. COVID-19 deaths, backed up by visible carnage Americans see in their communities, in a very short period of time.
Also working against the effort to break American resolve: the creeping acceptance, among the public and, more importantly, among medical practitioners, here and abroad, that what this unlikely-looking hero says is true.
