Yale: 28% of US Covid-19 Deaths Being Misdiagnosed
Eric Worrall / 14 hours ago

41 yr old Broadway Actor Nick Cordero had his leg amputated after Covid-19 caused a blood clot
Guest essay by Eric Worrall
There is a significant unaccounted for spike in excess US deaths this year, deaths which have not been attributed to Covid-19. Yale researchers believe a lot of the deaths are misdiagnosed Covid

For example, for ARM:

ARM adds nothing to this blogs. Provides no insight, offers no argument or fact - simply a repetition of talking points.; 7/5/20, 3:08 PM

Omaha guy Warren Buffett is buying Old Dominion's natgas assets for $10b. Those assets just became more valuable with the cancellation of the proposed pipeline.

The Left wants to put us back in the Stone Age.; 7/5/20, 3:23 PM

Big Mike said...: That’s one more sunrise than 8 year old Secoriea Turner lived to see. She was in a car with her mother and a friend of her mother when the car turned into a parking lot. A group of “mostly peaceful” BLM protestors took umbrage and according to latest reports at least two shooters fired multiple shots into the car, fatally wounding the little girl.

God damn Inga. God damn ARM. God damn Freder. God damn Crack. God damn every person who had ever supported the animals who loot and riot and assault and murder under the BLM banner.; 7/5/20, 5:39 PM
Hammond X. Gritzkofe said...: One of the two persons struck by the Jaguar at 0140 hrs Saturday on I-5 in Seattle has died - a white person at a black lives matter event, killed by a black person driving a white Jaguar.

A video (1 hr 44 min) shows the event starting on city streets with the 2-3 dozen participants chanting "Fuck the Police."

https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/victoria-taft/2020/07/05/cops-re-thinking-protest-rules-after-car-driven-by-black-man-kills-white-seattle-blm-freeway-blocker-n606394

When the group proceeded to the Interstate, State Police decided to close the segment and allow the unlawful assembly to continue. Ordinary Interstate traffic was thus forced onto slower, perhaps unfamiliar, city streets.

The "Fuck the Police" chant was followed by a demand for [Police] Accountability.

Yeah, seems the State Police do share in accountability for the death of this person.; 7/5/20, 5:49 PM

It was too late. Your pals and heroes had already caused their damage.

Interesting that Inga doesnt even take the time to criticize the attackers.

Scotty, beam me up... said...: Cartoonist Michael Ramirez hits the nail on the head today about the Heg statue That was torn down at the Wisconsin State Capitol grounds today <a href="https://michaelpramirez.com/down-goes-history-07-05-20.html”>here</a>. It is scary that these “protestors” haven’t a clue about real history because they either aren’t taught it or they are taught a bastardized view of history to fit the ideological bent of the teachers. If we as a society don’t put a stop to Marxist ideology being taught in schools, our great country will implode from within in the next 30 years. I am surprised the conservative Ramirez even is syndicated in newspapers since their employees would “feel threatened” by his views, especially in the NY Times newsroom.

Yep. Elected democrats calling Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt "traitors".

rcocean said...: the man who killed one protester and injured another is a sainted Black Immigrant. So, he's doubly blessed by God and Uncle Sam. Had he not been in the USA, one person would still be alive. But I'm sure the two leftists and their parents were/are proud to "take one for Team Left".

Needless to say, the left-wing MSM mob braying for the drivers blood, went to radio silence after we found it was a black man and not a white "boogaloo" frat boy with the standard Hawaiian shirt and sunglasses.; 7/5/20, 7:50 PM
n.n said...: This complicates things, doesn't it? The driver on the Interstate highway in Seattle who hit some women... happens to be a Black man.

Not at all. They wanted to topple statues, His action prevented them from following their dream. Neo-Nazis come in all classes of diversity: black, white, brown, yellow, male, female, transgender. That said, he was not entrapped as the man in Charlottesville 1.0 was, and this does complicate the narrative.; 7/5/20, 7:56 PM
n.n said...: Yale: 28% of US Covid-19 Deaths Being Misdiagnosed

Counting twice and thrice, conflating causes when politically congruent and profitable. Planned Parent (PP) is a still a glaring failure or success? Floyd was SARS-CoV-2+, a probable spreader, the hero of their progression, which along with his consumption of psychoactive drugs, likely caused his respiratory distress. NOW they march, break glass, topples statues, assault people in their cars and homes, and even the Seattle mayor, previously enthusiastic, now targeted, has altered her outlook.; 7/5/20, 8:03 PM
Wa St Blogger said...: Woman Hit by Car During Protest Blocking Highway Dies

That was a horrific accident and I am surprised that both victims were not killed instantly. I am sorry her tragic death and the pain that her friends and family are going through.

However, the situation has me confused. Here is a group protesting the existence of police, being protected by the police (though it did not work out completely as expected), and yet...

One of the other protesters got in a car and chased the driver for about a mile. He was able to stop him by pulling his car in front of the Jaguar, Van Cleave said.

Why do the protesters chase down and apprehend an oppressed black man AND TURN HIM OVER TO THE POLICE! Shouldn't they have have linked arms and blocked law enforcement from unfairly targeting and arresting a black man?

I now await the next Seattle protest with the sign that reads: "Free Dawit Kelete".

It is the only thing that makes sense. Otherwise, how do we explain any of the protests?; 7/5/20, 8:12 PM
Inga said...: People are so hung up on skin color. Black people do evil deeds. White people do evil deeds. The color of one’s skin doesn’t guarantee that they won’t do evil deeds. Running down a protestor in the street with car by anyone of any color is an evil deed. This shouldn’t confuse anyone.; 7/5/20, 8:59 PM
Big Mike said...: What if they had started shooting at each other?

What if BLM rioters show up with guns in Atlanta and murder an 8 year old black child? Black lives matter to Inga all right, except for the life of little Secoriea Turner. I hope she spends eternity in a deep pit somewhere in the hottest recesses of Hell.; 7/5/20, 9:17 PM
Big Mike said...: Here’s what Charmaine Turner, mother of little Secoreia, said in a press conference before breaking down in tears:

“She was only 8 years old. She would have been on Tik Tok dancing on her phone, just got done eating. We understand the frustration of Rayshard Brooks. We didn’t have anything to do with that. We’re innocent. My baby didn’t mean no harm.”; 7/5/20, 9:29 PM

Me too. The paranoid musings of brooding malcontents like ARM always put a special spring in my step.

They make me want to quietly hum "It's Springtime for Hitler in Germany".; 7/5/20, 9:33 PM

C'mon, Inga: take those panties off and throw them against the wall to see if they stick.

That will tell you how excited you are.; 7/5/20, 9:38 PM
Drago said...: Inga: "Did those black armed militia members burn any flags? Strange that Drago isn’t ok with the black militia appearing, but seems fine with the booger boy militias."

Just as you lied about the Trump quote yesterday and spent 4 years lying daily about collusion, I'll try to set you straight on this: I am okay with all the militias.

All of them. Including the Black Panthers.

It was you laughing about a militia showing up in Gettysburg and finding no one there to oppose them...whuch is precisely what happened in Georgia.

Perfectly analogous. But you arent very bright so you missed that....along with just about everything else.

Its unfortunate your self-proclaimed mind reading skills dont help you more rhetorically.

Why, its almost like you cant read minds at all.....; 7/5/20, 9:47 PM
Drago said...: rcocean: "the man who killed one protester and injured another is a sainted Black Immigrant. So, he's doubly blessed by God and Uncle Sam."

Indeed. According to Inga, this driver has that "spark of divinity" and the victims should feel lucky to have been unjured by him.

This is similar to Ingas repeated passionate advocacy on behalf of illegal alien MS13 machete murderers.; 7/5/20, 9:49 PM
Drago said...: Even if it makes Inga spitting mad, I thought I would take a moment to remember the 8 year old gunned down by Inga's and Howard's Heroes: Secoriea Turner

I am sorry Secoriea, but your name is not Heather Heyer so you too will be shoved down the lefty/Inga memory hole.; 7/5/20, 9:55 PM
Michael K said...: All you gun lovers be careful of what you wish for

Oh, I am very careful. I stay out of black neighborhoods, as you do. And I know that illegal guns kill thousands of black males every year. You lefties aid and abet this. That little 8 year old girl in Atlanta is on your conscience, not mine.; 7/5/20, 10:00 PM
Josephbleau said...: I want to sponsor a "deep" 3 meter dive with snorkels, to video the grave of the beheded Christian Heg statue torn from his honored place and disposed of like a turd into the lake. Let us see his beheded bronze corpse on the lake bottom where his BLM assassins dumped his body because they disagreed with his beliefs of freedom for black slaves, and his fight for them which is now belittled. Whitey is bad even though he gave his life for us. We hate all whitey even if he gave us freedom.; 7/5/20, 10:17 PM
Mark said...: the situation has me confused

What is confusing about a couple of people standing along a highway - where the speed limit is at least 55 mph - getting hit by a car? This wasn't some quiet residential area.

There's a reason why pedestrians are not allowed on the Interstate.; 7/5/20, 10:27 PM
Drago said...: Parents of 8-year-old killed last night: "They say black lives matter. You killed your own this time. You killed a child." https://2wsb.tv/2D5vthq

What the parents of this child did NOT say: Steve Bannon-inspired Boogaloo-ers killed our child.

And that is why Inga will never, ever, even write the name of this child in a post.

Ever.; 7/5/20, 10:31 PM

Nichevo said...: Inga said...

Running down a protestor in the street with car by anyone of any color is an evil deed. This shouldn’t confuse anyone.

No, Inga, I'm afraid you are confused. What is evil is blocking off a highway and carousing on it as if you hadn't a care in the world. The probability of an accident is so high as to be asking for it. The blocking cars didn't even have their lights on! Never mind flares, triangles or the like.

You're blaming the train for hitting the teenagers dancing or sleeping or walking blindfolded with earphones on the railroad tracks. At the very least, if the driver was stupid, he was no more stupid than the so-called protesters, and collisions happen when stupid meets stupid.; 7/6/20, 7:33 AM
