Honestly though we're at over 60,000 new cases every day, and we're charging full steam ahead into opening schools in the Fall which is gonna make the virus spread like wildfire. The rest of the world is closing their borders to us because we have been proven incapable of taking this pandemic seriously, and frankly I can't blame them. We're also in the middle of a massive unemployment crisis (that'll be getting worse in October), and on the precipice of a massive homelessness crisis as folks who were fired can't pay their rent. Long story short things are gonna get orders of magnitude worse before we even begin to see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Even with our inflated numbers France, Sweden, Italy, Spain, Andorra, Belgium, and the U.K. all have both of higher case fatality rates and higher numbers of death per 100k of their population. Yet, Americans can’t travel to Europe right now. All because it looks like everyone and their mom is getting coronavirus when you turn on the TV.
I feel like we’ve beat a dead horse. It’s just frustrating that people’s livelihoods are being jeopardized because common sense has gone completely out the window when it comes to basic elementary math. It’s like they’ve put Beavis and Butthead in charge of counting.

Trust the experts with models and projections predicting 2 million deaths that turn out to be over 90% wrong?
if yes, hire
Trust the science when they actually start reporting real actual data and numbers?
If no, wear a mask for Grandma.

This is how the Illinois department of health is reporting deaths reported from a local news station. Here’s a copy and paste if you don’t wanna read the whole thing....
“We are reporting those deaths that have laboratory confirmation, meaning that they have been tested and a laboratory test indicates that they were COVID positive,” Dr. Ngozi Ezike, director of IDPH, said.
However, that does not mean every one of these people died from the virus.
“There are also some additional deaths that happen in someone who happened to be COVID positive, but where the COVID infection had nothing to do with the deaths," Dr. Ezike said.
"Sometimes after further review, we will see that, like, a motor vehicle accident, or if it was a gunshot case or a homicide case," Dr. Ezike said.
You can literally be murdered and if you test positive for Covid you count as a covid death. She did say they need to adjust the numbers but so far I have yet to find anything that they actually did. Colorado did and they’re death count went down 25%. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.col...amp/5198485002 Here’s a link in case you think that’s a conspiracy too.
And although, not as direct, here is Dr. Birx saying they count deaths in a similar way on a national level. https://youtu.be/AoiQ9bpJsGA
Yep, they’re admitting it directly to our faces first hand but it’s all a conspiracy. At this point it’s actually a conspiracy to think their numbers are anywhere close to accurate.
