MAGA!

One difference is our numbers are real, perhaps even inflated and we
can't really trust China's. It also turns out Iran is reporting around
50% of the real number too.
Based on what is coming out of New York, our numbers might actually be
inflated. Since the feds are paying for covid victims, the hospitals
have an incentive to attribute and death in an untested person to
Covid.
They suddenly just decided thousands of people who died from COPD,
pneumonia or any other respiratory problem had Covid.


Ahh...you’re a public health analyst, too. Amazing.

I can read. I guess they didn't say any of this on Rachel's show but
it was covered in the real news. I would give you some news links but
You are not much of a reader.


I suspect I read a lot more and a lot more seriously than you do. And
because of my reading, I don't, as you do, support the guy who claimed
the number of cases "in a few days" would be down to zero, the same guy
who claimed the pandemic was a "hoax," and who is willing to expose
millions of Americans to a horrible death in order to salvage his
re-election hopes.

I knew this was going to get back to Trump. You lefties can't talk
about the disease without ending with "And it is all Trump's fault".

The fact that the powers that be in New York suddenly decided to
reclassify the deaths of anyone they could to COVID was certainly a
financial decision. The more COVID deaths they have the more federal
money they can get.
COPD pretty much stands for "Can't Offer a Precise Diagnosis" anyway.
My mother and sister died of COPD and that is what we heard when we
asked what really caused the problem. COPD is a symptom not a cause.

Why not call it COVID and get FEMA to pick up 75% of your unpaid
bills?


You should stick to your day trading.

I doubt you even know what day trading is.
I have never sold a stock I didn't hold for at least 12 months and I
won't even try to explain to you why. It would go over your head.
