DEATHS DWINDLE More people have died of the FLU than coronavirus for seven weeks in a row

By: Alex Winter, The Sun,  11 Aug 2020:

FLU has killed more people in the UK than coronavirus for seven weeks in a row, new stats reveal today.

Almost five times as many people are now dying of influenza or pneumonia than Covid-19, according to the latest data from the Office for National Statistics.

Coronavirus deaths are at the lowest level since the beginning of March, figures have revealed

In the seven weeks up to July 31, the latest date for which figures are available, 2,992 people died of coronavirus – but 6,626 died of flu or pneumonia.

A total of 1,002 died of influenza in the week up to June 19 – compared to 783 Covid-19 deaths.

The gap has widened each week up to the end of last month when flu killed 928 people – almost five times as many as the 193 who lost their lives to coronavirus.

Overall during that seven-week time frame, 6,626 people died of flu – and 2,992 died of coronavirus.

Flu deaths are also lower than the five-year average – highlighting the drop in coronavirus fatalities.

The reason for the drop in flu deaths isn’t yet known, although it’s believed it could be the result of increased hand-washing and mask wearing.

Some of those who die with coronavirus and flu will have the final cause of death recorded as ‘pneumonia’ – the illness which ultimately causes death.

It’s likely that, as a result, there will be some overlap in figures.

However, even with that as a factor, more people are now dying of pneumonia caused by flu – and not coronavirus.

It comes as figures show coronavirus deaths in England and Wales are at the lowest level since before lockdown began in late March.

The number of people dying from the deadly bug has dropped drastically.

Fatalities are now around the same as they were 19 weeks ago.

Lockdown began in the UK on March 23. The strict laws are being eased in stages.

Across the whole of the UK, there have now been more than 56,800 deaths involving coronavirus, officials say.

The number is higher than the total released by the Government, which currently records the total as 46,595.

Most of those who lost their lives were 75 or older, with 38,578 people in this age group dying with the illness in total.

Hey, felix !! Doing as well as can be expected. One thing that’s good, though, is the Covid numbers we are seeing at the hospital. Supposedly Boston and the surrounding cities are all, again…..Corona HOT spots.

Naturally, our fearless governor Charlie Baker (RINO-MA), has put us all in lockdown mode. Again.

At the height of Corona hysteria we had over 450 patients here in our establishment. With the RAGING current hot spots, we have TWENTY patients, plus less than a handful in the ICU’s. They are testing another couple dozen, but it’s a FAR cry from a couple of months ago, felix.

Other than that, the heat and humidity are killing me. Too hot to even go to the beach, a short 4-minute walk down the street. I stay indoors like a hermit with the AC cranked. I am sooo looking forward to the winter already !!!

Hope you & your family are all well and healthy. And as you tell me and others here on the GR, stay safe, cuz it’s crazy out there. With Joe, Kamala, and BLM/antifa raging, I fear it will get worse before it gets better……take good care, Sir, and many continued thanks for all that you do here !!!!

Everything IS insane, felix. That sounds great….I need to find a hobby to take my mind off the seriousness of all that is going on in this crazy world.

My dad got me in to silver and old coins when I was younger. I wish I had been able to afford gold in the past, since it has recently hit an all-time high. Haha !!! I could have retired already. Instead I’ll have to wait for silver to take off. I’ll probably be 6-feet under and in a cheap pine box by the time that happens…

My eyes would never allow me to deal with delicate and intricate antiques. Cataracts and subsequent surgery in both eyes have taken their toll, although my vision is somewhat better than when the cataracts were busy messing with me. A doctor in my department was into antiques, and his wife designed and made porcelain sculptures. She was quite talented and between her talents and his skills as an MD, they retired quite comfortably….

I am here in work till 7am. I watched most of the 5 overtime hockey game the other night (Tampa won), and my barely-into-the-2nd overtime Bruins win yesterday. I plan on my head hitting my pillow by 8:30am and hopefully sleeping well into the day as they say the humidity around here is supposed to finally break.

Thank you for sharing felix and good luck with the restoration project !! As detail-oriented as you are with all of your informative posts here, I’m sure the frame will be in much better condition when you are finished !!! Take care and a great day to you and your family, felix !!!!

If this works out well, I will save it for my youngest one for Christmas and put a picture of our orange tabby, Thomas in it. He wasgoing blind in one eye and after the eye drops didn’t keep the eye pressure down to save his eye, it had to be removed on 6/1. He is doing well but it left a hole in our hearts to see that being required. You could see it in his behavior that he was suffering.

Now that it is over, he is back to himself again which was a relief! We love him even more. He is such as sweet cat. He is a special guy and he was her first pet.

Anything is helpful as a distraction! If we knew something like this would happen, rest assured we would have done things differently too!

Take care.

It’s not even flu season. These numbers are obviously bogus. The link provided doesn’t lead anywhere. Also Covid death counts are at ~1000/day in the US.

The US data are even more confusing. US deaths from respiratory causes have not changed since January, and they are identical to previous years in the same months.

Having had something to do with “cause of death ” I am deeply sceptical of any and all statistics that report such as I know how much guesswork is involved. Unless a proper autopsy is performed (laborious and time consuming) they are just guesses: sometimes excellent ones, but still a guess.

We’ve all heard by now about the group of friends who decided to go as a group and stand in line to get the virus test……after filling out the paper work and waiting in line for a couple hours, they all decided to leave and come back another time.
A few days later they all get a letter that they were “COVID POSITIVE”!! They never had the test!

The health industry gets more money “treating” the covid than the flu….whether the person had it or not.

I have not, and will not go get tested.

Yes, and misclassification is common the world over. In Iran, Covid-19 patients who die of pneumonia are often just called ‘pneumonia’, with no mention of Covid-19.

2992 died *with* Chicom-1984 … maybe …

… given the criteria for assigning deaths in Texas …

… half of these fatalities – or more – will be people who have antibodies due to last year’s vaccinations – if that.

…. many of these people will not even have had an antibody test.

More likely, if Chicom-1984 contributed to any of these deaths – the death was listed as flu or pneumonia anyway because the facility had no reason to test for Chicom-1984.

*** Just keep it real, please.

Every statistics is confusing furthermore the people.
It’s intentionally and planned by a small known powerful “elite” – aiming at a massive reduction of the worldpopulation. People must be kept down and fully under control. There is no timeschedule – “Covid” could be endless and the sadistic powergame goes on.

What ever you do. DO NOT TAKE THE COVID VACCINE!
It is voluntary!

Moderna, which Dr. Fraud has a vested financial interest in, has never brought a vaccine to market before and their vaccine is an experimental vaccine which actually alters a persons DNA.

They skipped animal testing and went straight to human testing. The human test volunteers were all healthy individuals. None of them had underlying conditions like obesity or diabetes etc…

They had a trial of 45 people,
15 people were given a low dose,
15 were give a medium dose, and
15 were given a high dose.

1 person in the low dose group had to be hospitalized (that 6.6%).
In the high dose group, 3 people had to be hospitalized (that’s 20%).
So if 20% of the healthy volunteers in the high dose group had to be hospitalized, what percentage of people from the general public who are not all healthy will be harmed by the vaccine?

As always sleazy Dr. Fraud doesn’t guarantee that the vaccine will work!

Don’t forget Felix that in May Fauci said that the vaccine could “backfire.” What he was referring to is a phenomenon known as Antibody Dependent Enhancement whereby partial immunity is rendered leaving the more severe antigens intact and INCREASED entry of virus into cells. This actually happened in the 1960s.

In a 1960s vaccine trial, 80% of infants and young children immunized against RSV (respiratory syncytial virus, an RNA virus in the family Paramyxoviridae) ended up hospitalized, and 2 children died. Only 5% of the children in the control group required hospitalization. Vaccinated children carried high titers of non-neutralizing antibodies, implicating ADE in the tragic outcome, although a TH2 (inflammatory) T cell response also probably contributed. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41587-020-00016-w

Twila Brase discusses this in her latest video released yesterday. The last part of the video reveals a paper that was recently published with proposals on how to force the public to accept the vaccine.

Be sure to see the video by Twila Brase. I believe it is the 22nd or 23rd in a series of videos on CV. She is absolutely outstanding.

Also just discovered this AM that in 2005 a scientific paper came out showing that chloroquine was effective against SARS coronavirus. Fauci certainly would have known about that.

I read about this trial and wondered who would let themselves be so brain wiped they would volunteer to take this DNA altering, experimental vaccine. I wondered if those people were motivated by fear of Covid-19.

I believe that soon one DNA altering vaccine or another is going to become mandatory and refusal to take it will mean exclusion from society. Altering your DNA is very important to the demonically charged powers that be.

Covid 19 is still a mutation of the common cold virus and thus far the numbers of dead and the population of people who have died are consistent with a bad cold, which generally does not kill the young and healthy but does kill the chronically ill and nursing home residents, who by virtue of being in a nursing home have limited life expectancy of 6 to 12 months. You only need nursing home care if you are unable to attend to your own activities of daily liming, which is a risk factor for death.

Soon the next wave of seasonal flu and common cold viruses will come and rest assured that these lockdowns will continue now that the precedent has been set.

I’ve said over and over again…..once the Left got the personal restrictive Wuhan Virus to control us with…..you didn’t hear anymore numbers of Flu deaths.
They hid those inside the Wuhan to scare people into the overbearing rules of how to control us.
All along, the Flu was still there. Repeatedly we’ve been fed numbers of the virus deaths…..while hidden among those numbers included flu deaths passed off as the virus.

I do not trust government….and have no intentions of taking a hurried, Big Pharma “vaccine.” If I get sick…I’m going with the 60 year old proven Droxy…

Hypoxia is the cause of death no matter the official listing in pneumonia deaths. It is the inflammation of the lungs lining tissues, slowing or stopping the transfer of oxygen, so the deaths of SARS-2, various colds and flu’s are all by the same thing. Treating the SARS just like treating Corona-virus of any sort works, that is why HCQ with Zinc and mass Vitamin C doses with lots of sunshine or Vitamin D works so very well and has been proven safe over the last almost century. It is also the pathway to massively reducing the chance of it even starting up in your body – prevention works much better than fixing after it is broken.
