Coronavirus Facts and Fiction - January - May 2020 [Closed]

I’m not sure many people “die of coronavirus” directly just like “dieing of the flu”. It complications resulting from…

My Gramps got the swine flu in '09. He technically died from pneumonia, but he never would have gotten pneumonia if he hadn’t gotten swine flu. Did swine flu kill him? Doesn’t much matter except for how you want to count it. As long as they’re being relatively consistent when trying to compare between illnesses. That’s all I care about.

UK Government said in about 75% of the reported corona deaths, that the person who passed away wouldve died within a week to a fortnight anyway, wether they caught the virus or not. The Italian Government have the figure slightly higher at 87%

They cannot even count the people that died of “other” things that may have had CV19 as a catalyst. We will never know in the USA, since there are not enough tests available to test the living.
Like Charlotte Figs (R.I.P), that apparently tested negative for CV19 the first time in. Whatever it was…something exacerbated her seizures, which were apparently the cause of her demise.

Not a clue, can’t remember where I saw then. With in the last week though. Im very anti all forms of media and my input from them is very limited , so I should be able to remember, my gut feeling would be BBC Newsnigjt

I think some of you want to be scared. The numbers are nothing like what their models are even with social distancing not even half. Odd that the place doing the models is funded by Gates who says we need to stay locked down until there is a vaccine, Fauci if a long time associate of Mr vaccine that owns many vaccine manufacturing companies and wants digital Heath certs that would be controlled by Microsoft. How about the governor of CT reporting first infant death linked to covid when the baby died from an at home accident and nothing to do with Rona. Only knew baby had it postmortem. Funny the two states with the worst health systems are doing everything they can to inflate numbers to get more money. Between ny and ct 16 hospitals closed in the last year because of lack of funding from the state. Here we have more made up media shit

LOL, CNN. They’re pretty much turning themselves into tabloid with their horribly inaccurate and click bait reporting.

e.g. “Aliens definitely exist and they could be living among us on Earth, says Britain’s first astronaut” via CNN.

Yes but if you site anything other than them most label it fake news.

@OleReynard that’s because they are inflating the numbers to get more govt money to make up for their failed policies

Some are preparing, paying attention, researching and reading journals, and taking necessary precautions.

Please start posting the source of these claims. Just stating something makes it difficult to verify the veracity or understand the full story without knowing the source.

E.g. someone just claimed that it was reported that 87% of the folk in Italy that died would have been dead within 14 days anyways. But, no source to verify against.

I don’t know about most, some probably. And, there’s the same thing on the other side of the coin, too. It’s like a mini-war. They’re not on my personal list as being a credible source of information (CNN). FOX, on the other-side, does the same thing time to time but differently. Mostly via editorials. Verifying the information from any source takes time to dig into the background along with some care to avoid the misinterpretations, bias, and to be able to discuss what it means.

According to Newspapers in the area AND her Mother, she tested POSITIVE for Covid-19. She certainly had a pre-existing condition, BUT, indeed, the Virus WAS the cause of death.
