Around here, many restaurants are allowing even their workers to ignore the mask rule, and even though they are common in supermarkets, more and more people are ignoring this ridiculous protocol.
But do this: wherever you live, figure out how people die annually, divide it by 12, and then compare it to the COVID numbers. If you are still scared, you are an idiot.
Take Texas. 183,000 people died there in 2014. That’s 15,250 a month.
2,182 people have died thus from COVID-19. Texas has about 29 million residents, so that works out to about 1 person in 13,000. Nationally, about 1 in 113 people, I think it is, will die in any given year. Do you think 2,182 deaths over three months would even be visible on an annual graph showing deaths from all causes? I don’t.
And even the 2,182 number is likely misleading. EVEN IF everyone in that number died OF COVID-19, and not WITH COVID-19–which is clearly not a safe thing to assume, given how politicized all this has become (ponder that, you government trusters: public health numbers, being used to sway voters)–the global pattern is clear: by and large it kills the elderly and already sick. It seems about half the people who die from COVID-19 were going to die of something else soon anyway, so those numbers really shouldn’t be counted, since this disease is not taking too many years off of those lives. It would be people under 60 or so dying that matter the most, and particularly young people dying, which they are not at all.
Here is the CDC Table, which we can VERY safely assume has been massaged. Of the listed 103,339 deaths, 95,733 of them were over the age of 55, which is a few years past the age you can qualify for AARP. That works out to not quite 93% of the death.
So of the 2,182 dead in Texas, if statistics hold there, 2,030 were over the age of 55.
But there remain government bureaucrats telling people they can’t work, and can’t stand next to each other, or go out in public without a facial covering that does nothing.
Unbelievable. The whole thing boggles my mind. It’s not even the fact that the government did this to us–which is bad enough–but that ANY Americans are so stupid that they can’t understand they are being played for fools.
But many of us ARE fools, no?
