The News That You Don't Hear: COVID-19 lockdowns are killing thousands of Americans

The shutdown nazis have been accusing those opposed of want people to die. However, just as many have said, the shutdown is also killing people.


The hysteria drummed up by the mainstream media over COVID-19, in conjunction with the draconian lockdown measures being employed by many governors, is costing thousands of American lives. In light of horrific job losses and a crashing economy, calls to suicide hotlines are up over 40 percent nationwide. Although an increase in suicide calls does not necessarily translate to an increase in deaths, the fact that 132 Americans die by suicide daily is concerning. A 40-percent uptick would mean an increase of 53 deaths per day, if the calls indeed correlate to suicides. This translates to 1,590 deaths per month.
Heart attacks are a major problem as well. Harlan M. Krumholz, a doctor at Yale New Haven Hospital, recently published an article in the New York Times titled "Where Have All the Heart Attacks Gone?," which wondered why hospitals are eerily quiet, save for COVID-19 cases.

What is striking is that many of the emergencies have disappeared. Heart attack and stroke teams, always poised to rush in and save lives, are mostly idle. This is not just at my hospital. My fellow cardiologists have shared with me that their cardiology consultations have shrunk, except those related to COVID-19. In an informal Twitter poll by @angioplastyorg, an online community of cardiologists, almost half of the respondents reported that they are seeing a 40 percent to 60 percent reduction in admissions for heart attacks; about 20 percent reported more than a 60 percent reduction.
Where are all these patients going? Some are dying at home, as is the case in New York City, where paramedics are being directed to leave cardiac arrest sufferers at home if they can't get a pulse at the scene. Those who want to go to the hospital may be afraid to do so
You must be pissed at trump for his lock down guidelines.
Yeah, I kind of am, but he didn't really have a choice. He was backed into it by the fake news drumbeat. He couldn't take a chance the numbers would be the slightest bit higher than a typical flu season. Otherwise the fake news would have hammered him over it until November.

Poor Trump. The smartest man ever who gets himself backed into corners every fucking day.
Why do douchebags like you always pretend the fake media isn't intent on backing him into a corner?
Cause his supporters listen to the media? Trump formed his team and he's on TV every day. Stop blaming dems, this is all him. I neither love or hate his policy on the virus, but it certainly is HIS policy.
Wrong. Everytime he has a press conference he is confronted by a pack of vicious snarling animals. The fake news media is trying to make everything he does into some kind of disaster. Playing stupid doesn't make you look smart.
So what? And you don't like his policy so shouldn't you be one of those snarling dogs?

Pal.

They want to kill billions by poisoned 'vaccine', 1.5k deaths per month is nothing for them

Why do douchebags like you always pretend the fake media isn't intent on backing him into a corner?

The media is supposed to hold him accountable. That is all that they are doing.
The media is supposed to report occurring news. They are not for creating news nor holding entities accountable. Report the facts and the public can assign accountability; unfortunately the media no longer reports facts and occurrent events
 
Cancer treatments are being put off. Routine examines by telephone. This shutdown hoax is indeed deadly.

And no over run hospitals. But without an independent media the hysteria remains.
Just don't become ill during this 50 state shutdown because the hospitals are being kept nice and empty
in case someone with the corona virus should show up.
Just go lay in the corner or die...it matters not to the authorities.

No one can answer this-
Are any hospital admissions being coded as anything other than Covid?

Are all deaths being assigned Covid as cause of death?

Incorrect. Your understanding of what the news media should be doing is fucked up.

The media MUST inform the voting public about facts and evidence. And it MUST inform the voting public when an elected official is being dishonest.

If Trump says that we have 8 days in a week, it is not good enough to simply report that he said it. The reporting must be accompanied by a statement of fact which necessarily casts Trump in a negative light.

He must be held to account.

Nope. They are not a trial agency. Your misinformation is rampant and compatible to the liberal agent. Media is for saying “200 died in riots today” Media is not for “Trumps poor policies cause riots and 200 deaths” One is fact and the other is journalistic opinion. Journalistic opinion is not News even though America has been flooded with this opinion journalism mostly designed to get Trump.

Fellow fact oriented people, I think this posters overwhelming false indoctrination of what the Media was versus is can be useful in understand the baffling liberal beliefs about and total reliance upon the Media.

You're about 20 so you have no idea of the history of Media and what fact reporting actually is. You have been fed only journalism which used to be reserved for Editors Opinion on page 2.

A doctor here locally took out an ad this week telling his heart patients they are ill served by not keeping their appointments and in greater danger from that than corona virus.

He doesn’t have policies. He lacks the basic knowledge to formulate policies.

In light of horrific job losses and a crashing economy, calls to suicide hotlines are up over 40 percent nationwide. Although an increase in suicide calls does not necessarily translate to an increase in deaths, the fact that 132 Americans die by suicide daily is concerning. A 40-percent uptick would mean an increase of 53 deaths per day, if the calls indeed correlate to suicides. This translates to 1,590 deaths per month.
Heart attacks are a major problem as well. Harlan M. Krumholz, a doctor at Yale New Haven Hospital, recently published an article in the New York Times titled "Where Have All the Heart Attacks Gone?," which wondered why hospitals are eerily quiet, save for COVID-19 cases.
Krumholz writes:
What is striking is that many of the emergencies have disappeared. Heart attack and stroke teams, always poised to rush in and save lives, are mostly idle. This is not just at my hospital. My fellow cardiologists have shared with me that their cardiology consultations have shrunk, except those related to COVID-19. In an informal Twitter poll by @angioplastyorg, an online community of cardiologists, almost half of the respondents reported that they are seeing a 40 percent to 60 percent reduction in admissions for heart attacks; about 20 percent reported more than a 60 percent reduction.
Where are all these patients going? Some are dying at home, as is the case in New York City, where paramedics are being directed to leave cardiac arrest sufferers at home if they can't get a pulse at the scene. Those who want to go to the hospital may be afraid to do so
I read through that article- and there is absolutely no evidence provided in that article that the shutdown is 'killing people'. There is some speculation- but no evidence.

But we do know that the shutdown is saving lives- not just from Coronavirus- but of course those lives count too.


We estimate that since the order went into ef ect, collisions and especially injury and fatality collisions have been reduced by half, from ~1,000 crashes and ~400 injury/fatal crashes per day to 500 and 200 per day, respectively.

200 lives per day- some 6,000 lives a month.

Now I am not saying we should continue the lockdown just to reduce traffic fatalities- but I am saying that rather than the bogus 'thousands of Americans' dying that you claimed- instead the lockdown is actually saving the lives of thousands of Americans not even counting the thousands of lives being saved from coronavirus.
