Doctors condemn conspiracy theory pushed by Trump that COVID-19 deaths are over-counted by hospitals — Any ECCIE doctors care to respond?

Hey you asked for something and Tiny responded.

There is no vaccine yet and certainly no "Cure" and probably never will be considering it's a virus.

So that leaves it to simple public health measures such as hygiene,masks,distancing,early testing,and contact tracing.

Those countries that did well dealt with it honestly and scientifically for what it was and in a responsible manner.

That was sharp the way you got in your immigration barb by trying to blame contact tracing failure on "can't control the border".

To put into effect the above mentioned public health measures one of the central tenets is to get the public on board with a concerted well directed program.

That does not allow for the lied to bullshit and the erratic impulsive actions of a president solely focused on his political future.

You notice Tiny pointed out that these countries did better with the virus while at the same time thriving economically.

We did not have to have our ass kicked economically as bad as we have if Trump had dealt with the virus better.

We are a smart,rich,technologically advanced,medically well supported nation and we are well down on the scale of the Covid response list.

Far outdone by what Trump would call shithole countries.

based on 240,000 number, 1/3 of it is 160,000. Originally Posted by dilbert firestorm

So what you are saying is since they are old they can just fuck off and die?



If what your Dr. is saying is true then why is the reported total of deaths (for any reason) around 300k more than usual this year? And that is so far, 2 more months to go. I have no doubt that if someone has some pre existing condition that getting covid isn't very good for them health wise. But if they didn't get covid they probably would have been just fine and lived out their life. Originally Posted by royamcr

I know what he meant. I assume he knows his fractions.

Trump had no control over what measures Governor's put in place but that's a part of your narrative you don't want to admit. Maybe, maybe Trump could have foreseen a Novel Corona Virus never before seen and maybe could have prophesized how devastating it could be to the older, sicker population. I'm amused how after telling us that Trump is the dumbest man on the planet, that we shouldn't believe him when he bragged to Woodward that he knew how bad it would be when Fauci didn't know how bad it would be. We know the man is a braggart and not to be believed, well, except this one time I suppose.


We are a smart,rich,technologically advanced,medically well supported nation and we are well down on the scale of the Covid response list.


Tell it to the Governor's like Cuomo who are making all the decisions on mask wearing and distancing rules and lockdowns none of which a President controls but then you knew that, right?

Oh, what the hell, I'll do it for you.

European countries with spiraling Covid-19 outbreaks are shutting back down

Europe’s new coronavirus wave may be worse than the first.


With new Covid-19 cases rising exponentially across the European continent and hospitals once again filling up, leaders are turning back to social distancing mandates and business closures to halt the spread of the virus.


There are curfews across England, Spain, Belgium, and France, stricter masking requirements in Greece and Switzerland, while the Czech Republic is effectively in lockdown again, closing most non-essential businesses, as are Wales and Ireland. Even Italy — Europe’s first and hardest-hit coronavirus hotspot — is putting bars and restaurants under curfew as of Monday, and shutting down gyms, swimming pools, cinemas, and theaters.


Here in the Austrian capital, where people can be seen panic-hoarding toilet paper again, Chancellor Sebastian Kurz has warned of a “challenging autumn and winter” ahead. The country’s new anti-virus measures include capping the size of public gatherings, while one particularly hard-hit town in the Salzburg area, Kuchl, has shut down.


“How could we possibly be here again?” Clare Wenham,an assistant professor of global health policy at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), asked of the UK,where the death rate from Covid-19 is among the highest in the world. It’s because “the government didn’t spend the last six to eight months investing and getting a good track, trace, and isolate system in place.”


For months, scientists and health experts warned that governments must build up coronavirus testing and tracing capacity, put in place strict quarantine and isolation measures, ready hospitals for Covid-19 patients, protect the elderly and vulnerable, and, especially, get people to wear masks. Taking these steps, said Anthony Costello, a professor of global health at University College London, avoids “the bluntest weapon to control the epidemic”: the lockdown.


Yet, with few exceptions, leaders did not adequately prepare. Instead, there was complacency and denial. When social distancing measures slowed coronavirus spread over the summer, politicians lifted restrictions quickly in an effort to restart economies. They then failed to heed the warnings of scientists and doctors again — that small upticks in infections in August would eventually culminate in an exponential growth in cases, followed by increases in hospitalizations and deaths. (This grim pattern developed in the US, too.)


In the absence of stricter anti-virus measures now, Hans Kluge, the World Health Organization’s regional director for Europe, warned last week, daily mortality rates from Covid-19 could reach “levels 4 to 5 times higher than what we recorded in April.” And what makes this wave even more challenging than the last: People have already endured the pain of lockdowns once. They’re tired of the pandemic, and leaders in some cities and states are even fighting back against federally imposed measures. If pandemic restrictions are abandoned, the new wave in Europe could rival the severity of the last one.


The springtime lockdowns around the world came with a level of economic, psychological, and social pain we haven’t seen since the Second World War. Millions of people saw their lives shift dramatically: They changed how they work, lost jobs, or risked their health to carry on. They stayed away from loved ones, died alone, and delayed funerals. They put off weddings, canceled holidays, and kept their kids home from school.


Yeah, everybody is doing so much better than us. Bullshit! Authoritarian countries can handle this better than us. Want to become an authoritarian country to handle this after 4 years of telling us how authoritarian Trump is?

well now its cases not deaths , the cdc keeps changing the rules on reporting so badly no one can tell anymore and they CDC have no new research for like 3 months "what up with that "

Lets not forget that its called the chinese wuhan virus! It is a biological weapon that was released against the west!

"Lets not forget that its called the chinese wuhan virus! It is a biological weapon that was released against the west!"

In terms of dealing with it, doesn't really matter where it came from....it's here. More WD distraction and blame shifting rather than constructive thought.

Gawd you're dense! No one on the planet has had success against handling the virus. Dims just want to blame Trump because of their hatred.

Well, I hear Biden knows the cure... it’s all BS politics!!!
