Chris Hayes, One Month Ago: Trump "Personally Pressured" Health Officials to "Manipulate the Numbers Downward"
Chris Hayes, Yesterday: Trump Inflated the Death Count So He Could Brag When The Numbers Came In Lower
The most cynical interpretation of all this, one I can't quite bring myself to accept, is they rolled out the model showing 100k deaths after they knew it would be less than that so they could anchor everyone to that # and take a vicotry lap when "only" tens of thousands died. https://t.co/hYiUCHhO5g
— Chris Hayes (@chrislhayes) April 8, 2020
Hayes was immediately criticized by many members of the media for floating what appeared to be a conspiracy theory. "I said I can't bring myself to accept it!" he responded to one of his critics. "But he's been very very weird about 'coming in under the model' in this unnerving, disassociated way."Here's Chris Hayes from March 9th slamming Trump for his "happy talk" and suggesting that coronavirus could be beaten. He went on to claim that Trump admitted he was "personally pressuring health experts not to do the best thing in terms of public health in order to manipulate the numbers downward." At 5:37. One month ago, Chris Hayes pushes the conspiracy theory that Trump is personally manipulating the numbers downward. Now he says Trump has manipulated the numbers upward. So which is it, Chris? It can't be both. The media and the social media monopolists conspire to control the public discourse by deplatforming and censoring anyone who utters a "conspiracy theory," the true definition of which is any speculation that the leftwing corporate media disapproves of. But when they float their own conspiracy theories...? I don't see Twitter marking this tweet as "dangerous" in spreading misinformation and conspiracy theories about cooked models and projections. I don't see Chris Hayes blocked from his account until he deletes this Fake News conspiracy theory. Now, if someone on the right were to suggest that the models were merely wrong -- not deliberately rigged -- he would be censored. But leftwing conspiracy theories are always in fashion. Question: Will Chris Hayes' fans on the pseudoright follow him in pushing this "Trump tricked us with his overstated death toll figures" conspiracy theory? I would guess that some will at least be mildly supportive of the notion that something like this is happening. Hey -- if you're on Twitter, maybe flag this tweet for deletion. Alert Twitter that it violates their supposed rule about spreading misinformation about coronavirus. Of course, that rule only applies to the right, but Twitter has never admitted that. It's time to make them admit it.

I'm not the nurse, but I was asking this question last week. It seems that UV does kill the virus. And being outside in warm weather is how you get vitamin D.
I think that some of these businesses, especially those that do online ordering, should invest in UV machines. Seems like the UV could clean the boxes before packed and would cut down on any viral problems.

Berkeley Unified suspends online classes after naked 'Zoombomber' enters session
"Just two days into its "distance learning" program, Berkeley Unified has suspended its use of video conferencing platforms after a naked adult "Zoombomber" infiltrated a lesson.
The nude man entered into a virtual Berkeley High class and used racial slurs, Principal Erin Schweng said in an email to the school community."
So, to summarize:
-- Entire school district shuts down due to virus panic.
-- Classes moved online to "Zoom" videoconferences.
-- Racist pervert hacks into one class conference, shows his dick to the kids.
-- All education cancelled for the rest of the year as a result.
We are truly living in bizarre times.

If you misunderstand as much and as often as these people, you should lose your job.
Through the entire crisis they have politicized Trumps "15" statement. Now, just because the numbers are going to be lower--as Trump predicted when the Unhinged were shouting for the stage hook--he *suddenly* didn't take it too lightly--*HE* himself asked for the numbers to be inflated so that they could look like a hero.
This earns a very solid GMAFB.

REad a fascinating study on COVID yesterday. I had a chat with a college budy who's an ICU doc and he thought it supported what he was seeing.
Gist of the matter is the COVID virus binds itself to the hemoglobin receptor responsible fo O2/CO2 exchange. It displaces the iron ion ( the study called it something else but I dont remember the proper term for it.) THis releases all those ions and they run around oxidizing systems and preventing proper celular respiration because O2 is no longer being delivered properly. This is what they think causes the organ failure alot of patients exhibit.
The startling thing is this. The Hydroxychloroquine treatment ALSO binds itself to the hemoglobin receptors, but in a nondestructive manner. This is why it is so evective against malaria. The theory is Hydroxychloroquine block COVIDS ability to bind to hemoglobin rendering the virus virtually non-lethal.
Anyway.... I thought that this theory fit alot of puzzle peices together and I found it extremely interesting.

I'm really tired of reading how business owners are "forced" to layoff workers. No one made them do that. They *chose* to do that. Not saying it isn't a hard choice, during a hard time, but to say they were *forced* obscures their agency AND casts owners/CEOs as the victims.

I did a fair bit of research on this a while back for water purification purposes.
UV does not 'kill' viruses. It screws up their dna so they can't reproduce, (which is essentially the same thing)
the big, huge BUT when it comes to UV light is that the virus actually has to have the light shine on it. If the virus is in a microscopic shadow (like a bit of dust), then it has no effect on it.
That's why water purification UV sticks specify the water must be clear.

The response of the media was: HE MUST NOT SPEAK! BURN THE HERETIC! BURN THE A-MODELIST!
Now that the actual numbers are going to be more in Trump's range, they are going to blame the overestimation on him, because that makes him "look better". (It actually does, btw).
Easy calculation: When Trump looks good -> Orangemanbad.

I'm really tired of reading how business owners are "forced" to layoff workers. No one made them do that. They *chose* to do that. Not saying it isn't a hard choice, during a hard time, but to say they were *forced* obscures their agency AND casts owners/CEOs as the victims.

It's like I said before. It's a neverending game of chess. At any given moment, when they're not explicitly being told what to say by the DNC, Lefties all compete to find the "angle" that puts Trump on the defensive. Then Trump moves and it starts again.
It's one man - and maybe a couple of trusted advisors - versus an entire movement. And we're still winning.

I drive like an old man now, but I was a fiend when I was younger. There was a railroad grade crossing that was about 10' higher than the road. The road was basically a ramp on either side, rising up to cross the tracks. I'd take my '84 Corolla over that thing at about 55-60, and get all 4 wheels off the ground. I landed really hard on the front one time, but luckily didn't break the car.

Bottom line: even during a once in a lifetime event/pandemic these people are unable to step outside of political framing. They a truly brain-damaged, soulless ghouls. They can never be trusted; they are incapable of recognizing data/facts without political reference points.

I found Chris Hayes accusing Trump of "manipulating the numbers DOWNWARD" one month ago, on March 9.
Here's Chris Hayes from March 9th slamming Trump for his "happy talk" and suggesting that coronavirus could be beaten.
He went on to claim that Trump admitted he was "personally pressuring health experts not to do the best thing in terms of public health in order to manipulate the numbers downward."
At 5:37.
One month ago, Chris Hayes pushes the conspiracy theory that Trump is personally manipulating the numbers downward.
Now he says Trump has manipulated the numbers upward.
So which is it, Chris? It can't be both.

I'm one of them "lifelong conservatives," for real. My mom still laughs about me mimicking my dad's violent anti-tax rhetoric at the age of four or so.
But I still harbored a hippie-dippy idea that Americans and Jews could do dumb shit like build some fantastical bridge of peace with the Muslims.
I learned this would be impossible when I visited West Bank and Gaza as a teen. However, I still thought we could at least reach an uneasy standoff, if we really tried.

And not coincidentally, that leaves the door wide open for their two possible planned narratives for summer 2020:
A. Trump "botched" the Coronavirus response
B. Trump planned to profit off of Coronavirus response
They may field test both, I still think they will stick with A since, much like Russiaaa and Ukraaaine, it's impossible to disprove. But you never know.

"Today the United States is up to 14,000 deaths from COVID-19, representing 4/1000ths of 1% of the population. In other COVID-19 news hospitals are not performing any elective surgeries, and staff is being laid off as non-essential. Now for sports. Nick Saban sent his first text message today..."

Now that the numbers look much better than initial projections, and they are going to make Trump look like he turned a dire situation around, now Trump adjusted the up to look good.
Note that any relationship to reality didn't matter to them. The numbers aren't what they wanted as a political convenience, so they must be lies both times in completely different directions.
They can't even see, they can't even see, that by changing their position that even *if true* it makes Trump look like a brilliant political strategist for getting them to clammer for higher death estimates while reality would be much less. If not true they look like incompetent idiots stoking fear for political gain.
They can't see that's how they look because they can't even remember holding the opposite position. That reality is now gone.

============================
There will always be new mutations, new viruses, new something. Hell, every year the annual "flu shot" is a best guess cocktail as to which strains might be the most prevalent during the flu season. Sometimes the "experts" miss the target and more people get sick. Sometimes the "experts" get it right. The point is, we need test analyzers dispersed to local hospitals and medical clinics. Modern analyzers can be quickly updated by the manufacturer to recognize the latest viral threats. That's (finally) happening now with emergency FDA waivers.

100% Fact.
Posted by: Snopes.com at April 09, 2020 12:57 PM (Eicbe)
ace the "models" you talked about yesterday do show their confidence levels - all such projections are statistical exercises that show those - and have in fact been substantially modified to account for new data and new understanding, as time has gone one. Thus the radical change a few days ago that both dropped numbers dramatically, and moved "peak" dates forward.
Related, CBD the model you described in post below doesn't sound substantially different than the others being used, but if it relies on Chinese data/info, alone, it would likely be crippled from the start, no? Both the quality, and integrity, of the Chinese data has been a major issue from the get-go.
And I think the death #s from the earlier projections have been pretty well met by reality in the "hotspot" states, at least until now. It's the # of hospitalizations, and duration thereof, that have been off - and of course this was key, as all the heroic prep has been to avoid the high-water mark of acute cases flowing over the top of the levee of beds and ICU capacity and ventilators.
The Italian and Spanish data, for their worst hotspots, were the major factor that led to the huge revision in projections for many areas. Those weren't available or substantial enough until recently.
And Hayes' self-contradiction and "conspiracy" stuff is pretty tame compared to what's become the norm in some places. Some places.

The earnings to come will take a hard hit, and so will future earnings, probably. imo the globalist stock market will do well to meander sideways for some time, as the US repatriates essential production. Profit margins may be hurt if Wall Street loses their slaves and their ability to pollute freely ... but America may come out with better jobs and control of the important supply chains.
But if they inflate enough via QE or MMT, markets could go to new highs based not on real production, but on inflated money supply. idk, $4T QE with Obama was crazy, I think we will get more than that now ... and more debt, sky is not a limit. Whatever it takes to get Trump a second term, to defeat DeepState ... then the real prosecutions? idk

Yes, now that the virus is in nearly 200 countries (and more if we count each of our states as a country), so that we're running 200+ experiments, you can find a few where your imagined worst case sort of happens, at least if you lie about cause of death enough, like Italy and NY.

Just got off a long call with a client in New Jersey. Apparently the governor went against the construction unions and shut down all construction unless you can show your project has the requisite number of virtual signaling points. We're trying to figure out to put in a roller coaster foundation but not have it count as construction. Going to be a tricky one.

On National Former Prisoner of War Recognition Day, we honor the more than 500,000 American warriors captured while protecting our way of life. We pay tribute to these Patriots for their unwavering and unrelenting spirit!
Then, of course...

Except for the fact that you don't like people who were captured - while publicly attacking the most famous modern POW while he fought cancer.... No one has forgotten or will ever forget what you said and did. No one.

That's what's really been being driven home to me lately.
They are very simple, ignorant people. I'm starting to give them the benefit of the doubt again about their biases. They really do lack mental capacity or life experiences to see that another side exists. Every idea that comes into their heads is based upon their group's long-held prejudices + whatever that group happens to be popular with that group at any particular moment. There is zero room for original thought.

How would you institute such a test?
====
In truth the testing now isn't really that useful in people who are asymptomatic because its a pretty high false positive rate. If you have sxs and test positive there's a decent chance you have it. If you don't have symptoms they aren't testing you unless you have had known exposure and also are in high risk group.
So if you tested everyone you are going to show a really high rate of infection that isn't necessarily that high.
Bayes theorem is a big deal in medical testing. Truth is a lot of medical testing not like taking a temperature where there is a discrete exact result. You are grading reactions and where you draw the line on a positive is a judgment call. You are essentially grading on a curve.
Stated differently, say PCR testing for HIV, the reality is you can test positive but that does not mean that you will in fact get HIV in the future. You are treated as if you are however, because there is a fairly high chance you will.
You can look this up. The guy who invented the HIV test has discussed this in interviews. Its on the net.

The inquisitiveness was beat out of them in school (just regurgitate the opinions of the experts!). They might have the mental capacity, but they've been trained not to use it, nor to ever rely on their own judgment. In most cases, using your own reason has been defined as a hate crime.
Having eschewed their own reason and outsourced their thinking to implicitly-trusted "experts", a rigid ideological conformity follows.
As for a lack of life experiences, they all have pretty much the same background - upper middle class family, distant father who spent most of his life at work (who they resent for it), Ivy League education. All they know is their bubble. They have no idea just how small that little bubble of comfort they came from actually is.

Exactly. They're pretty much actors with journalism degrees. The thing is that most actors had to work at "regular jobs" while getting their start. It seems like a lot of these "journalists" went straight from the bubble of their college to the bubble of the pressroom. And America winds up being informed by perpetual adolescents.
How hard is it to get a journalism degree anyway now days? I read a lot of Sharyl Attkisson's writing and she regularly schools the press on things that it seems that they should have learned in college. What do they do there? Toga parties? Road trips?

There's that. But there is also the speed at which an appeal to the collective side has to be made to get noticed on Twitter.
So there is punishment for thinking "That" and reward for martialing your brain to produce the quickest response of group thought.

He was a vile racist who promoted the idea of a "Living and Evolving Constitution" and a wanna-be Mussolini. Screw separation of powers, screw popular sovereignty. If we just get the right academics in the room and ignore the Constitution we can make America a utopia.

I don't see Chris Hayes blocked from his account until he deletes this Fake News conspiracy theory.
Now, if someone on the right were to suggest that the models were merely wrong -- not deliberately rigged -- he would be censored.
That is exactly what is happening on Facebook. And not even for conspiracy theories, but simply for posting exactly what Dr. Birx stated regarding overcounting of COVID-19 deaths.
I posted a link from JJ's Morning Report earlier of the article where Dr. Birx is quoted as stating that they are likely overcounting COVID-19 deaths. And before I could even press post, I get a message popup from Facebook stating 'FALSE INFORMATION!" And stating that "Independent Fact-Checkers" have determined that "experts" agree that deaths have been UNDER-counted.
F---ing ridiculous how "social media" is working in concert with the media and Chinese Communists to "fact-check".
