COVID: Just another flu

Now that some sanity has returned to public health, we can have a sensible discussion about COVID.  Is it a unique virus or just another flu virus?  Politicians and public health officials would have you believe that it is unique and that you should follow "their" science to deal with it.  But, as you will see, their intentions can be capably described by H.L. Mencken: "The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."

James O. Eifert, commander of the Florida National guard, recently acknowledged that "there have been only 95 U.S. service-member deaths attributed to COVID from a total military population of 2.154 million.  That's a mortality rate of 0.004% — and a case-survival rate of 99.98%, based on the 421,807 infections the Pentagon has reported as of July 1.  By contrast, the military's suicide rate during 2020 was about seven times as great (0.027%)."

Let's unpack what Commander Eifert is saying.  We use the term "Case Fatality Rate," CFR.  It is the number of people who die from a specified disease divided by all individuals diagnosed with the disease over a period of time.  Most CFR reporting by public health officials during the so‑called pandemic used numbers of people testing positive for the COVID virus (i.e., confirmed cases) instead of individuals diagnosed with a disease.  We use the same definition...........To Read More....

My Take -  I'm shocked, shocked I tell you.  The bug man has been proven right....... again.  For those who've been reading P&D regularly, you will hopefully remember this was my contention from the beginning.  The only thing no one knew was these vaccines were not going to work, wouldn't prevent transmission, but importantly, it never occurred to us they would be killing people.  All for a "flu" that has an overall 99.7% recovery rate.
