interesting

It's a chart that has projected trends all the way through the year 2100. It's not uncommon for charts to continue with trends into the future. That said, they clearly have not had the opportunity to adjust the chart for Covid, which is why they put the disclaimer at the top. And the numbers completely support "the narrative being pushed". I showed you on another thread that the large increase in deaths from 2019 to 2020 in the US were very similar to the amount of claimed covid deaths in the US during that time.

I would think so, but who knows. If someone has it twice, it's going to be reported to the health department twice, so it would only make sense. But not everything makes sense these days.

This is the same chart Realville tried to use awhile back. The most recent years are based on pre-covid UN projections, not on real numbers. Just like I told him when he posted it: It literally says directly about the graph: "NOTE: All 2020 and later data are UN projections and DO NOT include any impacts of the COVID-19 virus." I went through in another post and provided accurate and easy to navigate data that showed that there was in fact a very large spike in deaths last year that coincided very closely to the amount of reported deaths in the US for 2020.

I'm not upset about anything, but I don't really understand what you're trying to say here.

The kids moving to houston now?

It's pretty insane some of the benign stuff that the left cancels the right over, but if you're on the left you can say whatever you want without consequence (as long as you're talking about the right).

Pretty substantial difference between the two. Kinda depends on who's making the argument and what they're trying to argue that determines which number people use.

I think that it's a relatively small amount of cases where the death is incorrectly ruled as covid. There are certainly mistakes made, or some cases where it wasn't a deciding factor. There are also undoubtedly covid deaths that weren't counted early on, or even missed still. That said, I think the numbers are realistically better than they appear because many cases of covid aren't diagnosed. This is just making up a number, but if, say, 20% of all cases are never diagnosed or counted, then survival rates of the infected are much better. I would think the survival rate of those infected is probably around 99% in developed countries, where on average it's documented around 98%. That said, when you're talking about it on a worldwide scale, 1% is a tremendous amount of people, and death rates are much higher in poorer countries.

from what I've seen they've been hit by one of the newer strains. but their govt opened everything up with basically no restrictions, and within a month it blew back up over there. The difference between there and here is that A) it's a lot more crowded. B ) lot less hygienic there C) a lot smaller % vaccinated D) poorer healthcare

As to the original question posed, it's news right now because they prematurely declared victory over covid, and after months of low numbers India is now seeing cases and deaths at an unprecedented rate.

I'm not upset. There's different ways to look at the numbers. It's definitely more supportive to y'all's argument to count people who've not been infected as survivors, rather than to determine the percentage of those infected who've died.

They have a really misleading website name for really just being an anti-vaccination website. Kinda like getting information about animal abuse from PETA. There are certainly some valid arguments for not getting vaccinations, but this isn’t the source I would look to to find them.

Couldn’t tell you. I’ve heard of many instances. I’ve never heard someone say they had a choice, but I’m sure there are places they do.

We do it all the time. There are some loopholes, but vaccinations are required.

Many hospitals have made flu shots mandatory for years.

Thoughts?

you read the article?

Part of me wishes I'd got involved a few years ago, but it all makes no sense to me. I don't understand how people can get rich trading a made-up currency? And now the market is being flooded with lots of different kinds of made up currency?

I don't disagree, but A LOT of people stood up for the cop in the Makia Bryant place, and I've seen a lot of African Americans who supported his actions as well. This was due to the release of the bodycam.

Hard to say with how little information is out there. I'm suspecting it might not be good with their unwillingness to release the video they have of the incident, but who knows.

haha. my uncle is absolutely convinced that Bigfoot is real. He gets his feelings hurt when we all make fun of him.

Get the vaccine or not, I don't care. But it's hilarious to me that anti-vaxxers use the argument that the high survival rate of Covid is a reason it's not worth risking the shot (only 572,000 people dead out of 330M Americans), but also use 15 people out 8M developing blood clots from the J&J shot as a reason that you shouldn't get the shot. Kinda similar to how they say that the government is pushing the shot, and they don't trust the government, but then turn around and say there's no way they'd take a vaccine not approved by the FDA.

I'll forward it on to the higher ups. Have you tried signing out and back in? I dunno, I don't work with technology. If Reagan gets to where he can't view either I'm going to assume that InMAGAweTrust hacked the site. 😀

No issues. Not sure what is causing the problem, but will look into it for you. Edit: No clue. There aren't any restrictions set on your account. I saw you were able to access yesterday morning.
