Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

- Improvements in management of critically-ill pts. It appears that some of the high-pressure ventilation actually did a lot of damage. We also now have widespread availability of remdes and the data on steroids.
This must be part of it.

Could also be the virus now spreading is slightly different than in March.
 
All news media is fake news..... how many lies do they have to get caught in before you consider them fake news?

It is the same with these covid numbers..... I work in healthcare and have seen these numbers manipulated so much..... why would anyone believe them?

What I have sit in meetings about....

* car wreck victim being counted as a covid death
*Hospice patient with no symptoms counted as a covid death
* over 20 plus positive cases with no symptoms at all
*my nephew had 30 positive cases at the place he does testing with no symptoms at all( I have feeling the no to extremely mild cases are very very high which is odd to me(faulty testing maybe?)
* The hospitals have started testing everyone coming in whether it is a knee replacement or whatever.... if positive then they become a covid hospitalization
* The hospitals I work with are not overwhelmed but to hear the media talk then they are close to turning people away
* The covid facility set up specifically to for covid with 80 beds available currently has 8-10

I’m sorry if don’t trust what we are being fed in the media.... I want the truth (good,bad or ugly)
This is exactly right
 
Similar example: the local Monterey Mushroom plant in May. 74 workers tested positive, it was all over the news for a day or two. Then? Crickets. Any idea why?
I don’t know about why it went away but I did hear that no one was actually sick with symptoms.
 
That's the point. In fairness, there were some with relatively minor symptoms. That's not newsworthy, though.
Yep...... they got the fear porn going and then it went away bc it wasn’t newsworthy any more..... that’s what makes me so curious.... I’m seeing an extremely high percentage of cases with no to extremely mild symptoms.....I wish there was a way to know what the real data is.

My aunt was telling me about one of her friends who had a family member die. They were terminal but also had contracted COVID. The hospital asked the family if they’d be ok with putting COVID as the cause of death on the certificate. The family asked why, the hospital said we get $13k if it’s a COVID death. COVID has put hospitals in a serious cash crunch with no one wanting to go to the doctor. But it has also incentivized COVID hospitalizations and deaths. The numbers cannot be trusted.
 
I believe the guy with three first names that has failed at everything he has done. He was even unsuccessful at his pudding strike.

Travis was unable to get NFL Sunday Ticket, the satellite TV package to watch NFL games in the islands, and went on a "pudding strike", eating only pudding every day for 50 days, with the goal of forcing DirecTV to carry the package in the Virgin Islands. The effort failed, but he blogged about the experience and received media attention

That really happened? The hospital asked if they could lie on the death certificate, then told them why and how much?

@Rickyvol77 does that happen where you work too?

This guy was telling me about his friend that drowned, and they listed his death as COVID. I called bs on his story too.
