Coronavirus death toll is being juiced.
“These statistics have been made to look really scary when it so easy to add false numbers to the CDC data base. Those false numbers are sanctioned by the CDC. The real number of COVID-19 is not what most people are told. Based on how death certificates are being filed out, you can be certain the number is substantially lower than what we are being told –based on inaccurate, incomplete data people are being terrorized by fearmongers into relinquishing cherished freedoms.” Dr. Annie Bukacek
“Figures don’t lie, but liars sure can figure.”
New York City is adding people who did not test positive for the coronavir. us to its count of those who died from COVID-19.
On Tuesday, the city decided to add people who never tested positive but are presumed to have died from the virus, helping to raise the death toll by 3,700 in one day, according to The New York Times.
When The Times did the math, it said the new figures increased the total death tally in the United States by 17 percent in a day.
Although the Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center and the city calculate numbers differently, the center says that more than 26,000 Americans have died of the disease, including more than 7,900 in New York City.
The new figures released by the city would push the number of dead in New York City to over 10,000. [Source: The Federalist]

THE CHINA VIRUS DEATH NUMBERS ARE A COMPLETE FRAUD
Every day you’re hearing an updated tally of the number of Americans who’ve “died” of COVID-19.But if you want to understand a Chinese virus, you better start listening to a Chinese philosopher: As Confucius said, “The beginning of wisdom is to call things by their proper names.”
And, it’s time everyone wised up about those daily COVID-19 fatality reports. They don’t represent the number of people it’s killed. They represent the number of death certificates listing it as a cause. And those two things are most definitely NOT the same.
We know with absolute certainty that CDC guidelines for filling them out mean people with mild cases who die of some unrelated disease get added to the virus’s death toll. And 80% of COVID-19 infections have symptoms way too mild to kill anyone. In fact, a lot of people get no symptoms at all.
We even know that people who aren’t infected with the virus are getting counted as fatalities.
The truth is that no one has any idea how many Americans COVID-19 has killed. Except that it’s got to be a lot fewer than the number being reported.
Item 1. If you die while infected with COVID-19, it gets listed as a cause on your death certificate, regardless of how mild it was or anything proving some other disease was the true culprit.
According to Coronavirus Task Force coordinator, Dr. Birx herself:
If someone dies with COVID-19, we are counting that as a COVID-19 death.
The Task Force’s unofficial leader, Dr. Fauci says:
I can’t imagine if someone comes in with coronavirus, goes to an ICU, and they have an underlying heart condition and they die—they’re going to say, ‘Cause of death: heart attack.’ I cannot see that happening.
For whatever reason, the medical experts in charge have decided on guidelines that are bound to add a lot of people who would have died of some other disease anyway to COVID-19’s death stats.
Dying with the virus is being intentionally conflated with dying from it.
Item 2. The CDC is explicitly directing doctors to list COVID-19 on death certificates even when no test was done as long as they’ve “assumed” the patient had it.
A March 24 Q&A style memo the CDC sent out directing doctors on how to fill out death certificates is explicit about it:
Should “COVID-19” be reported on the death certificate only with a confirmed test?
COVID-19 should be reported on the death certificate for all decedents where the diseaseNo reason for the “assumption” is required. And the emphasis at the end isn’t mine, it’s the CDC’s. COVID-19 diagnoses are being encouraged, not just without a test, but without any medical justification.
They’re also being rewarded:
Item 3. Hospitals will be reimbursed for treating any uninsured patients diagnosed with COVID-19. Medicare will also pay out more for checking the COVID-19 box.
So, on top of directives encouraging and even straightforwardly implying that many death certificates will falsely list COVID-19 as a cause, there are also enormous financial incentives to create more.
As Dr. Scott Jensen, told Laura Ingraham,
“If that COVID-19 patient goes on a ventilator, you get $39,000; three times as much. Nobody can tell me, after 35 years in the world of medicine, that sometimes those kinds of things [have] impact on what we do.”
In other words, when you incentivize something – whether it’s solar power, illegitimacy, or false medical diagnoses – you get more of it.
The question isn’t whether COVID-19’s fatality numbers are inflated, it’s by how much. And the answer appears to be, “a lot”:
Item 4: Results of (i) mass testing in Chicago, (ii) analysis of virus strains from New York, and (iii) medical data from California all indicate that the spread of COVID-19 was well underway at least half a month before the repressive measures inflicted to contain it even began.
Italian scientists suspect the same is true there. Evidence from China suggests the virus started spreading at least three weeks before the date reported.
The California data indicates COVID-19 had already surged in February. Why didn’t anyone notice a spike in deaths back when it actually began spreading? And what’s causing the present increase in death certificates listing COVID-19 as a cause? Even if it hadn’t already peaked, our strict regime of social distancing ought to have slowed the growth of an already spreading pathogen.
Finally, some enlightening numbers:
Around 2000 Americans on average die in hospitals every day. So, from March 13 to April 11, at least around 60,000 people should have passed away in hospitals from causes other than COVID-19. Suppose that the policies and financial incentives creating false COVID-19 diagnoses caused the virus to be listed on just 1/6 of those normally occurring death certificates. That would mean the actual number of COVID-19 fatalities is around half the roughly 20,000 reported on April 12.
If 1/3 of the people who would have died of other causes anyway wound up with COVID-19 on their death certificate, that would be enough to account for roughly every single death certificate listing COVID-19 as a cause.
We’ll likely never know how many people COVID-19 is really killing. Policies have been implemented that so blatantly inflate the numbers we’re getting that it has to be intended. Moreover, absolutely no effort has been made to provide us with meaningful data about how many extra people are actually dying. So, not only don’t we know, nobody has any interest in us finding out.
In fact, nobody seems very interested in finding out themselves since it doesn’t even look like real data are being compiled. Dr. Fauci and the other medical bureaucrats in charge are content to make sure the numbers are exaggerated as much as possible. They’ve indicated zero interest in finding out how many extra people are really dying because of COVID-19.
But we do know that death certificates are inflating COVID-19’s true death toll. Just like those early false claims that it was “34 times” more deadly than the flu when even Dr. Fauci now quietly admits their fatality rates are exactly the same. And just like both those computer models that predicted catastrophes and were ultimately proven worthless.
Moreover, a huge chunk of death certificates must be falsely listing COVID-19 as a cause of death if, as appears to be the case, the virus was spreading a month before we started doing any testing without anyone noticing an unusual number of bodies piling up.
The COVID-19 death tallies we’re seeing are really death certificate tallies and we’ve no reason to trust them. But we’ve every reason to think they’ve got to be significantly exaggerating the real number of people the virus is killing. And there are enough hospital deaths from other causes every day that the directives and financial incentives encouraging false diagnoses only have to cause the virus to appear on a small percentage of ordinarily occurring death certificates to account for most of the deaths currently attributed to COVID-19. In fact, as hard as it may be to fathom, it would be more likely that no one has died of COVID-19 than that the numbers we’re getting don’t significantly over-represent those who have.
Exactly how much COVID-19 deaths are being exaggerated, though, is anyone’s guess.

Confucius say, “man who stand on toilet high on pot”
Hey Halal, actually the Confucian Chinese book of philosophy, the “I Ching” does handle this current situation in Hexagram 3, “Difficulty at the Beginning”. It generally reads like this:
The Judgment
Difficulty at the Beginning works supreme success,
Furthering through perseverance.
Nothing should be undertaken.
It furthers one to appoint helpers.
The Image
Clouds and thunder:
The image of Difficulty at the Beginning.
Thus the superior man
Brings order out of confusion.
https://www.iching-online.com/hexagrams/iching-hexagram-010001.html
It’s not bad, pretty good advice…
Wasn’t the I-Ching WAY before Confucius? The Analytics are the only portion that could even relate to Confucianism. And, the only relation that can be given is that he (Confucius) utilized them in some of his lectures.
But, I could be misinformed.
Good question. I know the I Ching developed over along period. And here is what I was taught:
I Ching & The Analects – world religions professor
https://www.world-religions-professor.com/iching.html“The I Ching and The Analects of Confucius are two of the most important and well-known texts in Confucianism.”
——————————–
And notice that if those genocidal ChiComs actually read those books and followed them, we would not be in the pickle we are in now.
Interesting. I’ve read, off and on, about Confucianism, for a very long time. Even the different language (word usage) necessary from one class to another and from children to adults.
What little I know has set the I-Ching, totally outside of Confucius.
I’ve read a decent portion (translated into English) of the Analects of Confucius, but I’ve never drawn any relationship, from them, to the I-Ching.
Mencius may have relied/dealt with the I-Ching. But, I’m not as well versed with “The Second Sage”.
Well Confucius wasn’t very metaphysical. He didn’t concentrate on a pantheon, or much detail about gods. His spirituality focused on a smooth, graceful, and harmonious life, full of virtue and good intentions. Dao and Buddhism are ascetic religions, full of worldly renunciation, and sacrifice. Most Chinese friends I’ve had were implicitly Confucian. No asceticism. They did Buddhist rituals and stuff, but their day-to-day life focused on a smooth, graceful, and harmonious life, full of virtue and good intentions. Of course they never achieved that, but westerners have trouble with the 10 commandments too.
I just wish those commie rat ChiComs would read their own stuff.
here is a good one http://wengu.tartarie.com/wg/wengu.php?l=Yijing
Oh yes, thanks! Richard Wilhelm’s translation is the best.
He who go to bed with itchy ass
Wake up with smelly finger
That’s just you.
Unless the death certificate is accompanied by a post mortem and one by a competent pathologist it has always potential to be a joke and stats from such also. I have heard coroners overloaded with work begging doctors to provide a death certificate for someone with a long acting illness or a geriatric who just up and died. It is not legal and it may not be right but it does happen and in epidemics it is often rampant. What does anyone expect? The state employ staff to handle a daily work load .Increase it by 10 or 100 times and guess what? There is much room for accidental or deliberate mishap. I wonder just how many :hitmen: are getting rid of their back log *facetious*
Fewer people are dying. Examine the actual number of U.S. deaths, overall. Ergo, there is NO need to believe that the workload for state employees has increased. It’s actually decreased.
It was a general statement NOT a specific one to the current situation and it is factual in REAL epidemics. Whether this one will prove to be is still open IMO. I personally doubt it but then I do not have access to all of the actual stats.
I was making reference to the actual numbers, not dealing with hypothetical ones. Of course, if there was a true epidemic, stress would be placed on the number of state health workers. Fortunately, that isn’t the case.
“It is true, based on the data available,
that the number of deaths reported to the CDC’s National Center for
Health Statistics (NCHS) for the week ending April 4 was 20,281, and
that that number is less than half the average weekly death rate for the
U.S. in 2017. According to the CDC’s National Vital Statistics Report for that year, there were over 54,000 deaths a week on average in 2017.”
I wonder two things about that? Obviously one: is it true? I am always suspicious of such in situations like this but I guess that you will know more about them than do I. Secondly. if it is, it needs to be looked at in detail WRT cause as I guess traffic accidents have decreased as has social violence and work accidents. The splitting here may tell us much about society and its ills. It seems strange that the number has decreased and not increased. Perhaps that is just to justify the actions taken and hence my suspicion. I have NEVER trusted official statistics and I have good reason for that from past experience.
Hi Michelle Death estimates are ALWAYS really hard in epidemics, and people are still fighting over the mortality estimates for the Spanish Flu of 1918 [they can’t even agree on that date]. ‘Achmed’ has a point, and he is right to be skeptical. But you are right too. These are ‘new’ mortalities, and no one knows what will happen next, no one. The Spanish Flu came back 3 times, and went away on its own. Some mortalities are definitely attributable to Covid-19, for sure.
One way to estimate mortality after the fact is to examine mortality rates for all causes, in the years before and after the epidemic. For sure, colds and common flu mortalities will be lower, because anything that stops Covid-19 will stop them too, especially the self-quarantines. Violent crime is down by about 10% right now. Will all this net out to zero Covid-19 mortalities? NO.
When the CDC sends out “guidance” that, WITHOUT TESTING, any death can be given the cause of Covid-19. Point of fact, many New York and New Jersey hospitals have “backdated” many death certificates.
A few reasons … 1) If the individual is uninsured, the government will pay the full tab, with OR WITHOUT testing, if cause of death is listed as Covid-19. Medicare (Title Act 18) pays an extra kicker of a few thousand dollars, over the DRG negotiated rates, if Covid-19. And, it has actually been found that many deaths, wherein an individual was not placed an a ventilator …. lists its use … that, depending upon the DRG Regional area can amount to an additional $13,000.00 to $35,000.00.
I don’t know what the payment scales are like with Medicaid (welfare, Title Act 19 payments) as, although the vast majority of the money (if not all) is federally funded, it’s administered by the states.
With many hospitals bed counts being well under 50% of their normal census … administrators are going after every penny that they can.
They always have. IIRC young doctors worked 80+ hour weekends once: 8am Friday to 6pm Monday and were told that the hospital could not run unless it was so staffed. If you managed 4 hours sleep in that period you were lucky.( I add as well as 34 hrs on 14 off for the rest of the week) As a child I have seen such standing asleep with instruments in hand still.
When they suddenly had to pay overtime, the number of doctors used after hours dropped by 2/3s and they employed a night resident for the general wards and the efficiency was actually far greater.
I don’t personally know anyone that has reportedly died from Covid 19 but a mate tells me he knows two who used to drink in his local pub who were both in their mid 30s. One a scaffolder who fell from the scaffold he was building breaking several bones and hurting his head causing water on the brain, and he contracted it and died while still unconscious in hospital but cause of death was marked as corona.
The second of his mates that died was already very sick with cancer and yet again became infected with corona and died in hospital with cause of death marked down as corona. How many more who have died had a secondary illnesses? ….. ….
Seems that the authorities are trying to justify the closing down of the economy by inflating the figures.
Massive makeshift hospitals have been thrown up in no time but all destined to remain empty.
At least they actually had been infected with Covid-19. In the U.S.A., CDC “Guidance” states that they don’t even have to be tested to see if they were infected with the virus. I kid you not. Just write ’em up as DBC (Death by Covid).
Sounds like they’re playing the numbers game????
Also don’t forget the corporate interests who stand to gain from this crisis: e.g. Bill Gates via his foundation, who have been major funders of the once great, now inept & discredited WHO. Also he & his researchers are very pro-vax to put it mildly. Prof Whitty & many of the Imperial College academics, involved at the forefront of the official response have strong links with him, because of the lavish funding they have received from him. So they are not going to bite the hands that feed them! BG is also a major investor in pharma companies: both big established firms & newer start-ups.
Seems like there’s plenty of a certain type of individual making big money out of this crisis but meanwhile whole countries go bust and many small businesses bite the dust.
Where are the orchards of magic money trees?
I need to do some scrumping.
If this is true (I’m sure it is), then why aren’t we all back to work and enjoying our dinners at restaurants, etc? Why the hold out until some arbitrary date in May, June, or later?
Because they are forcing the Cloward Pivan plan on us, this is just the beginning of the pain.
I HOPE you’re wrong, but seeing other signs around us, like the flurry of earthquakes in Utah over just a couple of days, makes me think we’re at the beginning of the Tribulation.
The real numbers are impossible to figure, the best one could come up with is an estimate, which would be quite a job to figure out.
Mmhmm…
Ya think one of these ‘geniuses’ will somehow…just maybe…come up with a model?
Second verse, same as the first.
This has been their trick, for a long, long time.

It’s more accurate than the way they calculate flu deaths… so it’s all unreliable.
Once the dust settles, the mendacious Goebbelsian media will boldly claim that Wuhan virus killed at least one million Americans.
On the average there are, I can’t remember for sure, 154 deaths a day in NY. So take the day of the first coronavirus death and multiply it by the number of deaths since then, and subtract that figure from the total number of deaths attributed to coronavirus. You would have a more accurate number of deaths from the coronavirus.
Not so. Curtailing of normal activities reduces the occurrences of normal deaths.
I think only around 100 people a day die in auto accidents and less
in work related accidents so it won’t be that much. Many more people are
likely to die from the disruption in our medical system than lives were
saved. I know someone whose six month post-op cancer screening to see
if it came back was cancelled. She can’t even get in touch with her
doctor. Know another person who had chest pains and his doctor is only
seeing people online. That’s not even factoring in how many people are
dying in hospitals because of the chaos caused — some by COVID and some
by our reaction.
So the Democrats set up a stimulus system with incentives that make the Dr’s falsify the true numbers for cash and then the numbers scare the American people so much that they accept a complete shut down of their Constitutional rights and the loss of the worlds greatest economy all in order to stop President Trump from winning a 2nd term, GREAT! And they are winning this one. I say storm the Pelosi mansion and take her damn ice cream away.
Lying is the essence of Democrat policies and politics! The essence of the Democrats is corruption of the leadership and ignorance of the masses/followers.
This virus will kill more people that DO NOT have it than those who do have it! Time to knock off the horseshit politics before we end up in a CIVIL WAR!
This is on track to never end. Whereas testing was not available in late December and early January when this really started in the US, many many people have had this virus already and it is widely spread around the globe. As testing ramps up, so do the number of those “Infected”. So if testing is increasing daily, so will the number of infected, the so-called curve will never come because more tests are being performed. This can go on infinitum due to the massive numbers of those infected, as long as globalists want to keep us locked down and to mess up the reelection of our President.
Still trying to pretend we don’t have a killer epidemic on our hands? Wise up–even Trump has accepted it.
