LA Times: Coronavirus Cases Are Rising So It Must Have Been Old White People Having Cookouts on Memorial Day Because There Were No Mass Gatherings During This Period That Could Have Accounted for a Rise in Infections Among the Young

And also: Probably Trump.

See tweets below. The point made in the headline was made by others, including Steven Miller and Noah Rothman.

[H]ave you noticed that the rise in case numbers comes 1-2 incubation periods after those massive protests that public health people encouraged? And among the age groups that were most likely to protest? If you did, it was probably on your own, and not with the help of the media coverage.

Meanwhile, Paul Krugman is cheering on the mass deaths of older Americans who oppose his radical progressive politics:

11 Good grief, it wasn't Memorial Day cookouts, and it WASN'T rioters in the streets.

It was test kits in the hospitals, and MORE "elective" procedures and appointments happening.

Know what they do at hospitals when someone shows up for MRI or cataract surgery or chemotherapy?

Okay, that's preposterous but it's what they said. So why are they now mum on the likely cause of the case spike?

I still go to see them at least once a week (more if tech support is needed and I'm not throwing a tantrum) and they are going to see friends and church started back up in person with limits on attendance and temperature checks at the door. Note when I say limits on attendance, we go to a large church so we're talking 250 people per service vs. the normal 600-700.

But are masks when grocery shopping really necessary? How about wanting to go down to Myrtle Beach for a weekend? What are the actual risks so we can decide. Good luck figuring that out.

74 Here's an idea for the White House: since PROGDA is attempting to muddy the waters, how about issuing the proper nomenclature concerning this pandemic?

These words and their meanings will be used to describe what is actually happening, but their use is strictly voluntary. If a news outlet fails to use them, then the information can be dismissed safely by the public.

To wit (three wit even)

Case = documented incident of illness by a doctor, diagnosed and confirmed by a test.

Hospitalization = numbers of verified cases that meet the definition described above.

Exposure = those people who have tested positive for exposure to the flu by showing the presence of antibodies through testing. If they are asymptomatic, there is no cause for concern.

Only these terms will be used if reporting is to be taken seriously by the public.

Enough with the bullshit already.

It would be too much, I know, to expect commentators who might have the smarts to think for themselves and recognize this virus does not justify general public health measures of any kind to, you know, not (of course) stipulate the key premise of their "enemies" in their arguments.

Funny, I saw one, amidst many tweets mining this same boring incorrect "gotcha!" vein, pause to point out that of course he doesn't think it really matters, since "cases" does not = deaths, or even ICU beds, or even hospital admissions (as he has consistently pointed out all along) - but then he went right back to flogging this boring horse.

They have so grossly polluted the data and their agenda is so transparent that there's no way to trust anything anyone says.

So I've gone back to a sort of normal defensive position:
- I wash my hands more often than I used to
- I take Vitamin D and Zinc supplements
- I take a shower if I've been out and about for a long time, before interacting with others

That's it. It's the best I can do with no data, and I am fine with it. The fatality rate crashed back around Easter and hasn't swung up meaningfully since, and half of the fatalities were in nursing homes where various Dem governors decided to kill off the elderly. I will stay away from them (and thankfully I have no reason to go into one), but otherwise will live my life. And that includes visiting my folks with reasonable precautions.

86 New point of contention with established Rona facts via Instapundit:
The CDC rushed through so-called testing kits without any kind of scrutiny and an untold number don't even work. So so-called reports of "spikes" may as well be lies.

No matter what side you are on you are meant to fear the supposed "spikes" which there is no scientific way of telling whether they are simply false positives.

As a Rona Skeptic, while the tactic of laughing at the left for pretending that their riots didn't "spread" this supposed pandemic does make me laugh, at the same time I simply must state that any and all reports of spikes are only meant to spread fear and we must take back out constitutional right to free assembly as soon as humanly possible. Preferably yesterday. The tactic of laughing at the supposed "causes" of the spread or spike ignore the facts that such a supposed spike cannot even be proven to be *real.* I mean that literally. We must take back our rights.

Former Enron advisor Paul Krugman.

Four foot six neckless hunchback who has been constantly and consistently wrong about about every prediction since being promoted by the media to all purpose expert, beyond his area of competence in one narrow area of economics.
He was stupidly caught with child porn, apparently seeking to fantasize about sex partners who were not twice the size of his miniature self. His evasions and excuses were self-humiliating drivel and he knows it.

His deformed dwarf bones ache. His short weiner distresses him. He hates the normal for their easy lives. Being wrong about every issue of the day must hurt at some level. But he can sink into a pleasant delusional alternate reality as the money keeps coming. He'd be a fool to quit now.

Interestingly, my sister had a visit with her oncologist a few weeks ago and they wouldn't test her. They said she wasn't showing any symptoms. I had asked her to get tested because she had a serious illness in Dec/January- it was diagnosed as pneumonia at the time. Since she is high risk, I would have liked to know. Our entire family does all all of the crazy stuff because we are most concerned about her susceptibility.

So I've gone back to a sort of normal defensive position:
- I wash my hands more often than I used to
- I take Vitamin D and Zinc supplements
- I take a shower if I've been out and about for a long time, before interacting with others

Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at June 30, 2020 04:29 PM (hYcqw)

The most horrifying part of all of this is discovering how many people didn't wash their hands. Look, I've never been OCD about it but when you go shopping, come back and wash your hands. When I was working, I washed my hands after meeting with clients because who knows to what they were exposed.

I would hope adults do not need to be told to wash their hands after going to the bathroom.

Preparing food? Of course you wash your hands afterwards.

What the hell, people.

Note to self, get more Vitamin D.

132 One of two things needed to happen:

1. The virus (like most viruses) would mutate and transform to become less of a threat. However, in order to do that, you would need #2.

2. A majority become infected and create a herd immunity (at the same time mutating and transforming the virus).

By hiding in your basements and disallowing the virus to take it's natural course, we have only delayed the inevitable. Which, of course, was the goal. Right Dr. Fauci you piece of shit? The only ones that should have taken special precautions were those at high risk. Everyone else should have gone about their regular routine.

BTW...any standard year prior to the China Pox outbreak over 69 Million Americans get the flu. World wide, every single year up to 640,000 die from the flu.

For what it's worth, our daughter's rheumatologist said that because of the way Covid 19 attacks lung tissue, she is extremely vulnerable because of her specific auto-immune disorder. Hers attacks her lungs, kidneys, tear ducts and salivary glands, and we had a scare with her heart the other day. The doc said that was not uncommon either.
We recognize that this disease, as well as the flu and SARS and a myriad of microbes can harm our child. We are happy to take precautions and limit our activities because we love her. But we aren't asking anyone else to do so. Just wash your hands if you come by our home, or stay away if you're sick. Or have a kid in daycare. Those things are petri dishes.

She knows that and understands she will have to self quarantine until it passes to a reasonable level. But she also doesn't understand why others who are not at high risk have to quarantine.

Interestingly, my sister had a visit with her oncologist a few weeks ago and they wouldn't test her. They said she wasn't showing any symptoms.

Posted by: Moonbeam at June 30, 2020 04:32 PM (qe5CM)

No doubt there are hospitals rationing tests because they don't have many... or administrators know the tests they do have are unreliable.

And there's probably a liability to the hospital issue that is going on in some places. Especially if tests are faulty.

Still, she needs to know, and so do you. I hope you get answers soon.

On the good side: At a coffee shop this am, there were two middle-aged to senior men there, unmasked. I stopped by to tell them how cool it was to see somebody who hadn't been brainwashed, and they lit up in smiles. One sounded like he could have been one of the Horde: He referred to the Deep State and called the whole thing a hoax and an "op."

- Oppressed people should be able to protest despite the virus because some things are more important than the virus

People are testing positive and have no symptoms. Some will get a mild flu, some will feel really sick, and a small percentage will have to be hospitalized. I don't get why everyone is getting worked up.

It's been proven this isn't that deadly.
Posted by: Seems Legit at June 30, 2020 04:48 PM (jUVms)

I'm not sure, but I'm wondering, if you come in for somewhat routine care, and wouldn't have otherwise been hospitalized, are they hospitalizing patients who test positive for China flu?

My guess is they are, and not just to inflate numbers, but again, liability. If you have, say, diabetes, and you are seeing your endocrinologist for the first time since January, if you test positive are they sticking you in a bed, rather than letting you go home?

It is astounding how many people need to be told to wash their hands after coming into the house after being out and about. Or to cover their mouth when they cough or sneeze. Or not to wear their street shoes in the house. Or wash their hands before (and during and after) preparing food...

I have *always* carried hand wipes in the car, for when I go shopping. And I always wipe my keys and phone, too.

Wuflu didn't make me do this.

Pastor's wife just caught it at the end of a 14 day quarantine. They were going to visit an at risk relative and were playing it safe. She went to the hospital, they gave her an IV to rehydrate and sent her home. For most cases that even show symptoms, it is a miserable flu.

Governor's emergency's powers are not dependent on the Fed's -- but the FEMA money is 100% dependent on the Fed's.

So Trump can 100% stick them with that -- there is no risk to the health care/hospital systems anymore, there is plenty of PPE & vents.

Plus, these are now young people mainly getting sick and docs are seeing much milder cases -- which is good. That means the virus is weakening.

+++++++++++++
This is easy. I had it explained to me once, in very different circumstances. It has stuck with me and it always will because of how despicable it is.

When I was in college, we had a guest lecturer who was a tenured professor in another department. He told his life story. In summary, he was from a working-class family. He worked hard in high school and got a scholarship. He didn't like college and dropped out. He eventually became a drug-addicted street bum living under a bridge in NYC. He got tired of that, cleaned up his act, got back into college, finished, and eventually became a tenured professor.

Throughout this story, he was railing against capitalism and espousing the benefits of radical reform into a fair socialist system.

During the Q&A, I raised my hand and said, "So to summarize, you worked for opportunities that you subsequently squandered, eventually becoming a street bum. You then pulled yourself back up by your bootstraps, recovered what you lost and then advanced until you're now a tenured professor in this college. How is your story anything other than a tale of second-chance redemption? How is your life anything other than the American Dream?"

He paused for a moment and then answered, "Very few people could do what I did. I am extremely smart."

That's how he can lecture you about racism. It hurts people who are not-him. Because he's smart enough to do it despite the obstacles.

First of all, make sure they are taking a multi-vitamin daily.

And also taking a Vitamin D (D3) supplement. There is a very strong correlation between Vitamin D (D3) levels in the blood stream and Covid 19 infection.
Low Vitamin D, higher risk of infection.

I have read that Quercetin can act in a similar way to Hydroxychloroquin as a treatment/ionophore for Zinc in treating Covid 19.

You can order Quercetin from a lot of places. We got it from Life Extension. Your parents could start taking Quercetin daily as a prophylaxis against Covid 19.

That's all I got.

Posted by: Serious Cat at June 30, 2020 05:01 PM

I just was looking that up earlier today. Their deaths per day chart is a bell curve. So yeah, they're pretty much done with it.

Population: 10.1 million
Cases: 65,000 (0.64% of population)
Deaths: 5,000 (0.05% of population)
Death rate (deaths / cases): 7.7%

0.05% of USA population (330 mil) = 165,000 deaths.
Current death total for USA = 129,975

So I guess looking at that, one could argue that the shutdown may have saved 35,000 lives?

Wasn't Sweden one of the few countries that did not shut down at all?

5,000 deaths in their entire country.

Isn't 5,000 the number of people Cuomo sent to die in NY nursing homes?

this actually isn't all bad. On my next door group this morning, there was a big stupid argument because some women was mad that a 5 or 6 year old kid kept riding a 4 wheeler around and around in her cul de sac, and the noise annoyed her. So she wanted to call the police, because she didn't feel like walking over to the neighbors house and talking to his parents about it.

as if the cops should waste their time on idiocy like that.

309 I think AtC mentioned above but it is funny sad that you can become a leper if you happen to be sick other than the Chinese Flu. It's ridiculous.

That said I wonder what's been the rate of other illnesses right now and if any change of the death rates from the usual suspects.

310 LA City Council approves first step in replacing LAPD with community responders for non-violent calls

The motion instructs the LAPD to work with the county's Department of Mental Health, Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority and other government agencies to respond to non-violent incidents, such as drug abuse and incidents related to mental health.

323 What's the covariance between the rate of increase in testing and the rate of increase of positive results? If it's somewhere around, I don't know, "1" then you can produce any change in positive results you want.

You want an increase? Well just require more tests and you'll have a ramp up in positive results that you can use to shut down the economy again.

Then you've finished destroying orange man bad and ensured "his kind must not rise again"? Well forbid testing and poof the positive results disappear and the dems have saved the nation. Huzzah!

Yeah, and for people under 70 years old there are only 591 deaths. There bad outcomes was majorly within nursing homes, where it ripped though pretty quickly. -- but nobody will suggest in hindsight a shutdown is the optimal way to protect those places.

333 My county is mandating mask-wearing. I will not obey.

In Texas, our formerly great Governor Abbott has now decreed that, while it would be improper to require individuals to wear masks, businesses can be held liable if they don't require masks. Our communist county judge in Harris County, Lina Hidalgo (PBUH), has therefore decreed that there will be a $1000 fine to the business if they don't require masks.

I wear my mask into the store, then lower it below my mouth. No one has said anything yet, and hopefully the Karen Police have not turned in the store to the Hidalgo Stasi.
