City of Nashville Appears to Have Lied About COVID Cases to Keep Certain Businesses Closed

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

This is downright criminal. There should be some big lawsuits filed against the city from local businesses and quite frankly, some city officials should be prosecuted including the mayor if he was complicit

Emails between the mayor’s senior advisor and the health department reveal only a partial picture. But what they reveal is disturbing.

The discussion involves the low number of coronavirus cases emerging from bars and restaurants and how to handle that.

And most disturbingly, how to keep it from the public.

COVID-19 emails from Nashville mayor's office show disturbing revelation

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WZTV) — The coronavirus cases on lower Broadway may have been so low that the mayor’s office and the Metro Health Department decided to keep it secret. Emails between the mayor’s senior advisor and the health department reveal only a partial picture. But what they reveal is...

The whole past six months has been a gigantic lie.

Everything being pushed by the media, UN, WHO, has been lie after lie, propaganda in order to oppress and herd the masses. Its working. Most are conditioned now and will gladly accept some type of vaccine or mark.

I know they were lying about the BEACHES as well--since the virus is known to die between 11-34 minutes under the sunlight.

Obama, Fauci, the WHO all need to be sent to Gitmo and Leveanworth for this

"In May, a third of all COVID deaths in the nation were in NY. But by now, Cuomo has already killed off everyone who was ever going to die of it. Throughout April there were more than 500 deaths a day in NYC alone. In the last seven days, a total of 44 people died of COVID in the entire state.

Other states have passed through their much milder peaks. On Monday of this week, more than 2,000 Americans died of cancer, another 2,000 died of heart disease and, according to The Not-Hysterical-At-All NYT, 450 died of COVID. Things have gotten so good that the Times’ creepy COVID obituaries are forced to feature 101-year-olds dying from “complications of COVID-19.”

The 6-month nationwide shutdown has largely cleared COVID from the body politic. Now the main danger is if we start importing other countries’ body politics."

Democrats cannot be allowed to continue this ism of failure and hurting people.

Of course it is. But you will get only crickets from the progressives here.

So, as more and more evidence gets out of these abuses do you still believe the bullshit polls you keep referencing? I was at the Trump rally in Minden. The media claimed 5000 were there. That's how many tailgated in the farmers field where the cars were parked to get on the shuttles.

There were 28,000 in the venue. 28,000. And sisolak tried like hell to prevent it. The only way Trump loses is through massive voter fraud.

No, between one and two minutes.

Is that any surprise, commies are doing the same all across the country. The Houston mayor came out against Gov Abbott relaxing restrictions. It has nothing to do with science, they are trying to prolong the misery, thinking there's some political advantage.

If Nashville was doing this, just imagine just how many other major Democrat run cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Portland are doing the same thing?

This is outrageous..

It's been proven to it's hard to spread the virus anywhere outdoors.

The people who have had there livelihoods destroyed by democrats will soon seek revenge on the democrats and those who supported them.

One EXPECTS FAKE NEWS from the Main-Stream Media, It is a SYSTEMIC because reporters have to lie to keep their jobs. If reporters are honest they are fired or moved to non-consequential assignments.

However, to have an "elected official" falsify information is CRIMINAL!

Meh. Obama's FBI got away with falsifying a FISA warrant to illegally spy on an American citizen running for President. A little fascism never hurt anyone

It appears it is time for Nashville residents to bring back and exercise an old political tradition that was unfortunately abandoned, the perfect way to deal with corrupt, lying local /state politicians...

"Riding the rail (also called being "run out of town on a rail") was a punishment most prevalent in the United States in the 18th and 19th centuries in which an offender was made to straddle a fence rail held on the shoulders of two or more bearers"...and 'run out of town'.

Fact check: Did the Nashville mayor’s office hide coronavirus stats? No. Not at all.

Fox17 has since retracted a story that falsely claimed Nashville Mayor John Cooper kept coronavirus statistics a secret.

Fact check: Did the Nashville mayor’s office hide coronavirus stats? No. Not at all.

September 18, 2020


Editor's note: After this fact-checking article published on Friday, Nashville Fox 17 retracted its news story during a 9 p.m. newscast. "We don't have evidence of a cover-up and apologize for the error," an anchor read during the newscast.

This week, Nashville’s Fox17 published a news story alleging Mayor John Cooper and city officials attempted to keep secret the number of coronavirus infections linked to bars because it is "so low." The story launched into the social media stratosphere.

There is just one problem. Is it true? No. It is not.

The crux of the Fox17 story is the false claim that emails obtained by the news station show the Cooper Administration and Metro Public Health Department hid the relatively low number of coronavirus infections tied to bars. The emails appear to be cherrypicked from discovery filed in a lawsuit filed against the mayor by bar owners.

Fox17 bases its claim on two partial email exchanges. The first exchange, on June 30, is between an epidemiologist and a member of the mayor’s staff. The staffer asked for information on the number of infections linked to bars, then the epidemiologist asks if the information was going to be released publicly. The mayor’s staffer says no.

While that particular conversation may not have been public, city officials disclosed the low number of infections tied to bars – 30 infections at 10 locations at the time – two days later. Although this number was comparatively small to the total case count, it was part of an alarming trend that showed the virus gravitating toward the city center.

Officials announced the statistic at a weekly press conference led by Cooper. The press conference was streamed online by the city, and The Tennessean published the statistic in a front-page article that led web traffic for the day.

This is the opposite of keeping a secret. This is telling every person who wants to listen.
