This is a mind blowing article and underlines the extreme folly/ planned destruction underway
Did a copy and paste but couldn't get it to work.
So go to this link to see this excellent article:
From the article:
‘To date, of these 3,106 deaths, 2,108 of these persons lived in nursing homes, personal care homes and assisted living residences. That means 67.9% those who have died lived in these types of settings.’
That means hardening the nursing homes would have had a far greater effect on morbidity than a general lockdown.......and cost less than 1/1000 of the price tag we have paid.
Like I said since day 1.
Well
I think the point made is clear, An entirely medical issue has been turned into a political crisis situation, What is even worse is that the crisis started in a US preidential eletion year, Up to end Janaury the economy in the USA was booming,Going to post the article in sections. Apparently the formatting was to complex to post in one go:
Today, we celebrate the 75th anniversary of V-E Day. It was the ultimate triumph of grit, determination, and a unified sense of purpose behind liberty that, despite its painful human and monetary cost, freed an entire world and spawned 75 years of America superpower status – not just as a leader globally, but as a nation of freedom and prosperity at home.
Now, in a matter of just two months, we’ve flushed trillions of dollars in a greater investment than World War II, and we have nothing to show for it but a destroyed economy, a destroyed deterrent against a generation of dangerous criminals, a physical and mental health crisis, lost education of a generation of schoolchildren, lifelong dreams of small business owners down the toilet, and the end of freedom itself – all for a lie that was apparent from day one.
The Greatest Generation invested for, sacrificed for, fought for, and achieved liberty and prosperity; we invested for, sacrificed for, and self-destructed for tyranny and a police state for all but truly dangerous criminals who have been released by the tens of thousands under this lockdown insanity.
When pondering the enormity of the short-term and long-term effects of this destruction and how our government, absent strong intervention, will become increasingly a police state, read this letter from the speaker of the House of Pennsylvania, Mike Turzai, to get a sense of how we were lied to about the impetus for such drastic action.
Sadly, 3,106 of our citizens have died due to Covid-19. The average age of those that have passed away is 79 years old.
To date, of these 3,106 deaths, 2,108 of these persons lived in nursing homes, personal care homes and assisted living residences. That means 67.9% those who have died lived in these types of settings.
Of the 3,106 persons who have died, 11.9% had 4 comorbidities, 22.7% had 3 comorbidities, 27.2% had 2 comorbidities, 22.6% had 1 comorbidity and 11% had zero comorbidities. While these percentages only add up to 95.4%, these were the statistics that were provided to us verbally.
Of the 3,106 persons who died, 61% had hypertension, 54% had heart disease, 37% had diabetes and 30% had chronic pulmonary disease.
According to the Hospital and Health System Association of Pennsylvania (HAP), citing Pennsylvania Department of Health statistics, there are 37,000 beds in Pennsylvania hospitals.
As of today, 2,572 of these beds were occupied by Covid-l9 patients, which amounts to 6.95%.
There are only 539 patients in the hospitals on ventilators, which amounts to 1.46% of all hospital beds.
Hence, we chopped our proverbial head off to deal with a very defined and isolated problem. As I’ve chronicled, there’s nothing unique about Pennsylvania. This is the story of nearly every state, where 95%-100% of deaths were in nursing homes or among those with several underlying conditions, and the median age of death was either at or above life expectancy.
We knew from day one from clear studies of the Diamond Princess ship in early February that this was a problem almost exclusively for the elderly and those with three or four very specific ailments. All of our resources needed to be used to protect that vulnerable population in a targeted and strategic approach, as we do with nearly every public policy problem. Even after this became apparent, two to three weeks into the crisis, the politicians doubled down on failure and tyranny and are doing so to this day.
Our governments destroyed our entire country under the guise of caring about lives while they left the nursing homes vulnerable. We didn’t even kill the proverbial ant after using the nuclear bomb! We didn’t err on the side of caution; we erred on the side of obliteration. Now they are planning to do this intermittently in the future for viruses of even lower magnitude .
Remember the “15 days to flatten the curve” and ensure that hospitals weren’t overrun? Well, outside New York City, they never even came close to being full, and now they are ghost towns – nearly two months into this insanity that governors refuse to end. Minnesota destroyed its economy and health care system for an epidemic in which over 80% of the fatalities were in nursing homes and 99.24% had underlying conditions. The country now faces up to 30% unemployment. The lockdown has flattened nothing but society, liberty, and livelihoods.
Our grandparents fought two superpowers through the worst circumstances and not only kept the country running, but grew it to new heights. After all, they were the descendants of George Washington’s army that fought the Revolution during a smallpox epidemic.
If these acts of national heroism made them the Greatest Generation, what do these governmental acts of illogical, immoral, and illegal self-immolation make our generation?
