Virus Schmirus

Best line of all time. Viruses come from China like Shortstops come from the DR.

It's almost like going to a speakeasy. There's a course near me (a good one) that's secretly open... all on the hush hush. You just show up and play, for free. I told Olivia of the pro shop on the phone that I wanted to pay something but she wouldn't let me. So I'll go back at some point and buy some gear, and thank them. So I played there yesterday after 3 weeks and 4 days of no golf. Sunny, almost 70 degrees, perfect!

Most of our courses are open in Idaho and they are packed.......a lot of plates from Washington. Dozens of motorcycle riders and lots of Washington visitors in town......Thanks Inslee.........

Four weeks ago today (March 12), Spring Training was suspended. At the time, the CDC had reported (though March 11) a total of 1,215 cases. We now have 427,460.

The hopeful development I see is that the 5 day average for new cases has been slightly lower the last two days for the first time,
April 6: 32,237
April 7: 31,146
April 8: 30,051

Meanwhile, the 5 day average for new cases has increased slightly the past 2 days,
April 9: 30,868
April 10: 32,305

Daily case data are from CDC website; count closes at 4pm each day.

The death toll from the coronavirus pandemic is not the catastrophe that doctors with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) predicted it would be.

U.S. lawmakers locked down many states under guidance from the CDC who predicted millions of people would die from the coronavirus that causes COVID-19.

The CDC is being accused of fraud for inflating death toll numbers by instructing hospitals, morgues and funeral homes to assign COVID-19 as the cause of death - even if people died from another cause.

The CDC's official guidance for coding COVID-19 is to assign cause of death as COVID-19 if the disease is "caused or is assumed to have caused or contributed to death."

No lab tests or autopsies are required under the CDC's guidance. The CDC's policy has come under scrutiny and is being mocked on social media by activists such as Candace Owens, who has been very vocal about the CDC's deception.

"We've now arrived at the point where doctors and politicians are openly admitting to fluffing the death count," she tweeted on Wednesday.

Owens suggested that doctors are classifying every death as COVID-related to artificially raise the death toll.

"Apparently, doctors and nurses around the world are wondering why no one is dying from heart attacks and strokes anymore. Flu and pneumonia deaths also went off a cliff. Turns out everyone is only dying of #Coronavirus now.

Gee. I wonder why...?

Dr. Deborah Birx, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, confirmed suspicions that the government is fudging the death count.

Federal medical officials

Anytime I hear federal anything...it’s just getting stupid.........It doesn’t sound like they should even have the authority to decide who counts what......

The latest I read this morning (God, don't make me go look it up) is that 90% of the deaths attributed to the Covid-19 are from other causes. Corona Virus contributed to the deaths but people with diabetes, heart disease, lung problems, etc., were already vulnerable. Think those men and women in Nursing Homes with previous conditions.

I am hoping the government (Jay Inslee, I'm looking at you) doesn't think 0 deaths is a litmus test. If they don't start opening up the restrictions, we're in trouble. If I have had a minor case (sore throat, cough, runny nose - could have been allergies), I want to get back out there! There are economies of scale we have to look at.

Maybe big sexy can confirm or deny that hospitals are receiving funding of $19,000 for every covid patient and $39,000 for every covid patient that is intubated?

The formula is very simple. The more deaths the more justification for dem governors to keep the economy shut down. The longer the economy is shut down the better chance they have to defeat Trump which is their primary focus. If anyone pushes back they can just accuse them of caring more about money than lives while ignoring the fact that normal working people need money to live.

One good thing that may come out of this is people make actually make an effort to be healthier so that these viruses which almost always spare healthy people won't be a serious issue even if they are infected.
