Exactly. You gotta multiply the infection rate of covid by the natural death rate from other causes to get the overlap. It’s tiny. Probably a couple dozen people in total.
Put it another way. NYC averages 150 deaths per day. If you have an infection rate of 3% of the population any given day in April, then the most number of deaths that could be attributed innacurately to covid would be about 4. There were hundreds of people dying a day from covid. 4 false attributions is nothing.

White House to hospitals: Bypass CDC, report COVID-19 data directly to HHS The Trump administration has directed hospitals to stop reporting COVID-19 data to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Healthcare Safety Network.
Instead, starting Wednesday, they have been told to send capacity and utilization information to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the new HHS Protect system. On a press call Wednesday, CDC Director Dr. Robert R. Redfield said that the change had been made with the CDC's support... ...A number of public health experts expressed their alarm in response to the initial announcement – airing concerns that putting COVID-19 data in the hands of the HHS meant that it would be inherently politicized.
"COVID-19 data collection and reporting must be done in a transparent and trustworthy manner and must not be politicized, as these data are the foundation that guide[s] our response to the pandemic," said Infectious Diseases Society of America President Thomas M. File on Tuesday.
"Collecting and reporting public health data is a core function of the CDC, for which the agency has the necessary trained experts and infrastructure," he added. "Placing medical data collection outside of the leadership of public health experts could severely weaken the quality and availability of data, add an additional burden to already overwhelmed hospitals and add a new challenge to the U.S. pandemic response," File continued.
"This decision to remove the CDC from its primary function and opt toward creating a duplicative, private federal contractor will halt the flow of crucial information," said American Psychological Association President Sandra J. Shullman in a statement on Wednesday afternoon...

For what it's worth, I haven't trusted those numbers from day one- too many variables and room for error. Despite this, Trump has spewed plenty that the numbers are inflated, as well as, if we don't test we won't have the high case numbers(smh). This might be what has concerned me the most so far.
Also, if it hasn't been mentioned, Big Pharm companies agreed to a 'no profit' agreement regarding Covid vaccine, 'while there's a pandemic.' https://www.politico.com/news/2020/07/13/vaccine-makers-profit-congress-360135 How gracious.

im slowly piecing together what happened so my story is really confusing. I've had crazy retrograde amnesia for the passed 8 days. the setting of the hospital did not help me at all and made me lose my mind. i was locked in a room with no contact for 2 weeks. i was stripped of all my clothing n placed in hospital sweatpants n shirt. since I only remember the first 3 days and I wasnt allowed visitors and was put in a medical fog I can only relay what the doctors been telling me which hasnt been much. my pee doctor has been the most forthcoming and said it was nothing concerning he just wants me to be able to fully void my bladder again and I do too! the doctors officially blame kratom for a drug induced seizure which caused bladder spasms then they had to catheter me n it got infected giving me pyelonephritis which caused me to pee blood, puss, and get a bladder infection which started to fuck my kidneys so they put me on dialysis and infused meds into the dialysis. since I was a fall risk seizure risk and i needed the dialysis they sedated me extremely heavily so those 2 weeks are a complete blackout. i kept waking up unknown to me extremely confused and scared n pulled on my lines too many times for the nurse to handle n she injected me with something that i never felt before. prob propofol and ketamine.. thats my official hospital dx. im just really frustrated with the hospital saying I refused to pee when they dx with urinary retention from bladder spasms after my seizure. i 100% have a bladder infection still it sucks. they changed my room 5 times because my friends were calling the nurses number throwing spaghetti at the wall of passed things ive tried so they thought it might of been a suspected poisoning since all lab results were clear besides weed n kratom n anti seizure medicine.
i remember reading the wall and it saying you deserve to be treated with dignity while they shoved that massive tube up my penis n i thought I was being tortured. i thought i had covid because they only told me i had gotten an infection but wouldnt clarify what kind.
i woke up with the worst back pain ever n cramps. the hospital still doesnt have my records i was only given a discharge packet n told to wait for something in the mail. :/
the nightmare at the hospital 2.0 while in quarantine getting tubes stuck up my dick. idc what caused my seizure im not touching anything that led up to this mind blowing event.
this would be a really good cover up if it was. covid wasnt that bad when I was admitted now its everywhere so its hard to know the real truth but i have to accept it was kratom or ill forever be labeled “crazy”.

'Shit for brains' is also a valid exemption for not wearing a mask. I've seen it used here at the Shroomery.

I wonder how many of the maskless dumb fucks have killed their family members so far, or other peoples' family members, just so that their face holes weren't inconvenienced for 10 minutes at the store or whatever.
How are these people even part of the same species that sent spacecrafts to mars and developed quantum computers and all that? It's like something went horribly wrong when their brains where developing, and intelligence and compassion was replaced with prideful stupidity and bottomless rage.

when you cant pee at all, the water builds up in your bloodstream and your cells. it causes what is called dilutional hyponatremia, which is a relatively low level of sodium in your bloodstream. it's not that you're losing sodium, it's that you're gaining water. your nerve cells depend on the fluid in your bloodstream maintaining a specific proportion of sodium in order to function. when it falls below that level, you become confused/dazed, and can have seizures and even go into a coma. it seems unlikely to me that kratom alone would cause you to have that much urine retention, but I guess it's possible.

I agree they are culpable and should be held accountable I'm some way post this... but you want to be careful not to dehumanize them or we will all end up further behind.
I know it's just word on the shroomery but one you allow those thoughts in they seemingly have some power over individuals tendencies.
You usually rise above it.

yeah thats why they were restricting my diet I think but they were giving me flowmax and oxybutynin n god knows what they injected into my stomach. when id ask for water they'd just leave and never come back it was straight torture. i thought they were evil but I guess they were saving my life. I could go without the bruised penis n bladder infection tho. i found out real fast nobody was coming to see me when the doctors walked in covered in full face shields n splash covers. i remember the nurse pushing my bladder asking if it hurt n passing out. it was also pretty degrading having to shit n piss in a bed pan when I could which was like twice. the nurses were really cute too it sucked being so fucking helpless.

Trump is out undercutting the effort to get everyone to wear masks in a new interview. He’s a fucking criminal. The only way he can win this election is if the virus is under control by the election and he constantly sabotaging those chances. It makes no sense.

My next door neighbor has tested positive for COVID. She can't taste or smell anything, but is in otherwise relatively good health. She was going to the beach and all that, not giving a fuck and now she's got it. Letsee what happens.
The virus is literally next door to me now

Yeah I’m feeling much better. I’m just glad I got my mind back that was the scariest part kf the whole experience. Seizures are no joke they are physically and mentally exhausting and the recovery sucks. What also sucks is being labeled an overdose when you just were sprawled out on the floor seizuring. People have seizures its a pretty common thing dont judge them instantly.

The staff should make them swear to their sky fairy on a Bible kept by the counter that they they have this "asthma or some such". That should conflict the ever living shit outta the dumb cunts.
Some of them may be able to perform some kind of mental gymnastics, they believe in every word of the fukin Bible FFS, and make out that being 'forced' to swear on it, makes the oath worthless. A bit like crossing your fingers behind your back when you tell a lie.
