Someone was rambling on about how 84 cops have died of COVID this year out of 700K Do the math on that one, and then consider cops are in contact with trash and people throughout the day.
I pulled up their statistics, and then I recalled how I managed police/fire heart/lung cases, moons ago. In a nutshell, if cops have either it was and likely still is assumed the disease is line of duty, even after they retire. Heart attacks are covered too. Anyway, looking at their statistics, no cop died of heart or lung disease. Weird right? There were eight deaths by heart attack, but that's a separate thing than heart & lung disease. Most of us die a natural death of heart/lung anyway, it's how shit works.
84 deaths by COVID though. Hmmm! Reminds me of someone I know who died after mentally checking out three years before. He smoked 82 years yet "died of COVID".
Seems to me COVID is politically motivated a cash cow for some, and invented for power, all while we choke out small business for it, among other things. COVID canceled out the flu too (COUGH!)
