How Lethal Is COVID?

[Flopper]

If that number is right..........We know they fudged the numbers early on to get that money from the Cares Act.......Everything was covid..........

I highly doubt that number. And most are in Nursing homes and assisted living homes.......where they have a ton of comorbidilities...........That is where the bulk died.

But when you change the definition to PRESUME and throw $77000 per patient via hot spots under the Cares Act you just can't imagine how many died for the money.

I think you are presuming that one hand of government knows what the other hand is doings. That has not been my experience.

During the first two or three months of covid, just about everyone who tested positive and died were presumed to be a Covid death. The reason being we did not know enough about the disease to give hospitals guidance on Covid deaths. So the CDC put out a bulletin that said if doctors believed Covid to be the likely cause of death to mark the cause of death on death certificates as Covid but the death certificated was to be considered to be provisional. This lasted from the end of March to June 1 of 2020. These death certificates, about 70,000 were investigate by the U-S Dept of Health for 6 mos. At end this time periods the number of Covid deaths were increased by about 5,000. In other words the hospitals under reported Covid deaths.

However, the fact is that in the first few months of the epidemic doctors were making best guess on Covid deaths was all that was needed for certain groups to push the false news that the covid deaths have been exaggerated when the fact is we were under underestimating covid deaths. Even today this idea persists that any one with Covid and dies is reported as a Covid death.

I know of 3 cases that were BS personally. The families said it. But was listed as Covid deaths.

You throw $77000 per patient if a hot spot and EVERYTHING is covid.

I know of 4 deaths that were covid that really were covid. Delta kiling younger ones. Ages 33, 45, 50. Alpha age 65

As of 12/28/2021, the overall death rate for COVID patients in the USA is 1.5%(one and one half per cent) Draw your own conclusions

It's not the death rate you have to necessarily worry about. It's damage to the linings of organs.

Cardiac MRI in Patients with Prolonged Cardiorespiratory Symptoms after Mild to Moderate COVID-19 | Radiology

Background Myocardial injury and inflammation at cardiac MRI in patients with COVID-19 have been described in recent publications. Concurrently, a chronic COVID-19 syndrome (CCS) after SARS-CoV-2 infection has been observed and manifests with symptoms such as fatigue and exertional dyspnea...

Post-COVID MRI Evaluation

The ability for ultra-high field MRI to identify and track neurologic manifestations related to COVID-19 infection is critically important as evidential data continues to be collected about the long-term cognitive effects of COVID-19 on infection survivors.

Despite attempts to make this political, it's just science.

Covid is capable of ending your life, very quickly

Covid is capable of ending your life, very quickly

Very true. Also capable of producing a lingering death that keeps the hospitals busy and incapable of treating people with other problems. Not getting vaccinated and boosted is exactly the same as refusing to wear a seat belt when driving on a freeway. It does not cause you to get in an accident, but if you do, your chances of survival are far lower that if you were wearing a seat belt.
