Cartek even did that despite the fact that I had already posted Ezike’s clarification earlier in the thread.
More likely the video is legit and since then this Ezike person has been threatened, warned to change the story or suffer the dire consequences.Quote:

I am not questioning that the video is legit. I am telling you that Illinois has already addressed the misinformation the video contains. People that circulate the video on social media are not telling you about the correction because it doesn’t support the narrative they are pedaling.
You just repeated the same argument without addressing the flip side. The flip side is that the video is the real truth, and reveals that the # of deaths blamed on C-19 has been greatly exaggerated for purposeful misinformation...for political purposes. The subsequent "correction" is part of the cover-up, damage control so as to continue the false narrative.Quote:

Greatly exaggerated? How many extra people would we be talking about that were Covid positive and died from gunshot or car crash? That has to be a minuscule number even if they were counting it.Quote:

In our case the state is also suffering $millions in loss revenue from reduced O&G activity.
The state has released statewide and parish by parish numbers. Natchitoches Parish is particularly hard hit, as we depend heavily on tourism, which has ground to a halt. Natchitoches has a HUGE hotel industry, something like 800+ hotel rooms which normally have an 80%+ occupancy rate. It also has a high hotel tax....
So, while libs celebrate the downfall of America's small businesses...in hopes of creating a new batch of guvmint-dependent folks who will vote for the Dems, yeah baby! And of course, libs rejoice in the struggling economy in hopes it will damage the Orange Man's reelection bid...well, in the meantime state and local governments are taking a pounding and services are being cut. The damage is real and the short-term outlook in particular is grim. It'll get worse before it gets better.
More reason many of us are watching this whole thing with an eye on the flip side of the lockdown. I have posted several times that if they are proven wrong...and by "they" I mean those directly responsible for this virus mess shutdown...Dr. Fauci et al and some of the governors who particularly over-reacted, and all those "researchers" who have poo-poohed every inexpensive and readily available remedy...should pay a huge price. All of their assets should be seized and placed into a pool to reimburse all the innocent Americans destroyed economically by this. Well, it would only be a token reimbursement given the amount of $damage, but it should happen and serve as a warning to those who would place themselves as the "all-knowing" guru and dictate national policy.
Let me hasten to add...IF they are proven wrong. To me that verdict is still out. But, it is looking more and more like a big over-reaction to a "virus hoax." We shall see...
Libs were the ones trying to help the states out.
Forgot to mention the cured rate for the state...it's 26K+ which is 76%. That leaves about 8,000 active cases statewide.

In Natchitoches Parish half the total cases and more than half the deaths all come from the same nursing home...the one with the lawsuits filed against it. Statewide about 40% of the deaths come from nursing homes. This further illustrates the true nature of this whole virus "crisis."

Louisiana Department of Health Updates for 5/21/2020
May 21, 2020
The Louisiana Department of Health has updated its website to reflect the latest number of COVID-19 positives and will continue to update its website at noon each day.
Today, the Department reports 1,188 new cases. Of those, 682 (62%) are from 23 labs that are reporting cases electronically to LDH for the first time, with cases stretching as far back as March 25. These labs previously have not reported and are now reporting all their historical lab results electronically.
This means 506 of the 1,188 newly reported cases come from the rest of the regular reporting across the state.
While all 1,188 cases are added to LDH's dashboard today, historical cases are reallocated back to their respective dates and shared in the "date of onset of symptoms" visualization on the dashboard.
The percent positivity—the percentage of total tests that return positive—on all lab results was 6.1%.
“While this is the biggest single increase in cases we have seen since April 9, it is important to understand the context,” said Dr. Alex Billioux, the assistant secretary of the Office of Public Health. “Not only are there cases here dating back to late March, but we also have increased testing. That only 6.1% of all these test results are positive is a good sign. Our goal is to keep that number below 10%, the goal set by the federal government.”
“We believe we are beginning to see the impact of comprehensive testing across congregate settings and workplace outbreaks. This is what suppression of COVID-19 looks like—and it is critical to moving our state forward,” Dr. Billioux said.
The Department expects to see higher case counts in the coming days while ramping up testing in congregate settings.

Yes, stockpiling this equipment and PPE for extended periods is useless. Disposing of existing stock and completely restocking when these items expire (5-7 years or so) is not smart. Cost of care would skyrocket on any insurance plan, government or private, if we kept all these items up to date in preparation for an even that may never happen and you certainly can’t predict with absolute certainty with enough lead time to produce these supplies for when something is going to hit.Quote:

Masks are designed to help keep someone who is infected from spreading the virus via fluids, like spit, sneezing (didn't want to say snot...), and drooling, like Goosey does when he tries to think. Just saw a report from the CDC confirming what many already thought, the virus cannot survive but milliseconds on solid surfaces. I have not seen any updates on the 90 seconds in the air estimate, which stems from over a month ago. But, it apparently does okay in droplets of water...so! an infected person might accidently spray spit, and that can travel...well, 6 feet! I guess. Sneezes can propel fluid 20 feet! Gross, I know, even without the threat of a virus.Quote:

You will note that that is not remotely “you can't really catch the virus from touching objects or surfaces” as you characterized it. Reading. It is something we all learned in elementary school.
Another business "bites" it, thanks in part to the lockdown. The Natchitoches Alligator Park has announced they are closing permanently. Citing this pandemic shutdown as the final straw they will not reopen, after 23 years of succesful operation. It is true that two floods hit them hard, especially the one 2016 a "500-year flood" that inundated the park and kept it close from March thru September that year. Then another mini-flood hit them last year, they lost a month's revenue. Now, they haven't been able to open this season at all due to the virus mess.
This is just one more example, one more nail in the coffin, for those who are responsible for this economic collapse. The Chicoms bear the brunt of the blame and they should be severely punished, HAMMERED into submission with all-out economic "war" aimed at total implosion of their economy. Crush 'em! And crush WHO right along with them. Next, all those here, in this country who have either purposely or by foolish misguidance contributed to the economic calamity. Some, we know, the Dem guvnors, are following their marching orders designed to wreck the economy. They should face a fair trial then be summarily executed by firing squad. Others, like Dr. Fauci, are probably just stupid goofballs (although I think he has a financial rooting interest in this...) and simply are wrong in their assessment of the situation. There are others who MIGHT have had the best intentions...no, seriously...some have made honest mistakes in their analysis of the data. Others KNEW there was (is) two sides to the story but chose to error on the side of caution...and the economy be damned! These folks don't deserve to be shot, but they should pay via the siezure of all of their financial assets, right down to their kids' bikes, and that money used to make (token) restitution to all the truly innocent victims of this virus hoax.
And this folks....is why there is a 2nd Amendment. Read into that, what you will...

All of that happens when you have lack of leadership at the level of POTUS and a POTUS that appoints leaders to HHS and CDC based on loyalty and party orthodoxy rather than competence.Quote:

We only have one President that overseas the agency responsible for disease control. We only have one President who wasted months of time to marshal a coordinated interagency response and set clear priorities on a national strategy. We have only one head of state that deals with China and got fooled by them. We have only one President with access to the powerful bully pulpit of the presidency to influence states and US citizens on a coherent message and strategy as to what should be done to control the disease.Quote:

Now he says it is China’s fault.
He has been all over the place but he has only been consistent with one part of his message: it is someone else’s fault.
Why do you want a president that doesn’t believe he is responsible for anything?
Wake up sheeple.
We will just have to agree to disagree. I feel like Trump did all he could with the information that the INTERNATIONAL health community was telling him. He is not a politician who is trying to please one side of the aisle or the other. There is enough blame to go around. We don’t only blame James Davison when one of his drivers fails to deliver on time or has a traffic accident. Why does blame only go to the top when not concerns Trump?
Trump CHOSE which voice to believe. Unfortunately he chose the voices on FoxNews and Xie over people like Pete Navarro who was on the ground in China and Nancy Messioner who is the Director for Immunization and Respiratory Disease at the CDC.Quote:

And yet...while Trump is the president for all 50 states, it's the Dem-led states struggling the most...including Louisiana. If this was simply a case of poor leadership "at the top" we would see mostly consistent issues across all 50 states, with whoever was guvnor, Dem or Repub, irrelevant. But, that is not the case. For the most part Repub-led states are doing okay to very well, and it's some of the Dem-led states where the crisis is worst. But, unlike the finger-pointing Goosey, who only resides in his TDS political world, I don't place all the blame on those Dem guvnors. Like everyone else they have had to deal with conflicting information, and like everyone else, found themselves in a two-month hole thanks to the lies of the Chicoms, aided and abetted by WHO.
BUT!!! and for this I do place blame, there has been an inconsistent and just blatantly obvious attempt to wreck the national economy for political purposes. How do you justify liquor stores and abortion clinics open, but mom & pop hardware stores, grocery stores/delis, and churches closed?

So how would you rate the federal government’s response to this? And the leadership?Quote:
Leadership
The Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services is chosen by the President of the United States and sits in his Cabinet. The head of the Public Health Service, the Assistant Secretary for Health, is also appointed by the President. The Surgeon General, who is also appointed by the President, acts as an adviser to the Secretary and the Assistant Secretary.
Piss poor obviously.
They have done extremely well. Waaaaaaaaaaaay better than a Krooked Killary admin would have done. And veerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than a Biden admin would do.

I don't know how accurate the updates are over weekends. They often seem to lag and then on Monday, or maybe Tuesday this week, bam! the numbers roll in. Also, I have read several accounts that the state's actual positive testing rate, statewide, is 6.1% or something close to that. I just use the posted data to calculate, 11.8% in this case.

In Natchitoches, there are three large nursing home facilities. The smallest of the three, has been hit hard by C-19. All 49 residents and 20 of the staff have tested positive. On the other hand the two larger facilities with a combined 190 residents have ZERO cases among the patients and a total of 3 in the combined staffs. The Rehab Center (49) is the one with three lawsuits against it. Of the 13 deaths connected to the virus in the parish, 7 of them have occurred in the Rehab Center. They obviously adopted Andrew Coumo's formula...
There have been 157 cases in the parish, 69 of those in that one facility. It is sad and tragic that the folks in charge there have fumbled the ball so badly, but it does point to a bigger picture that in a parish of 39,000 people outside of that one isolated place, there have been 88 cases and 6 deaths. And we don't know if some of those 88 cases are not also connected to the Rehab Center, maybe they were visitors.
BTW, Natchitoches Parish has received another D- in "our" adherence to the recommended policies of social distancing and wearing masks. There were over 200 citations written during the 3-week curfew mandate, and that represents only a small percentage of the violations. Some folks have not changed their behavior even a little bit the whole time. Of course, their behavior has been changed for them in some cases. For instance, bars and restaurants have been closed, but they simply switched to getting drunk in someone's house/backyard instead. Maybe Natchitoches has developed the herd immunity thingy, and that is why despite poor adherence the numbers haven't spiked. Or....maybe this whole thing is just an over-blown hoax. Maybe?

I have noticed the maps being shown on the local news for several weeks now. Particularly Morehouse Parish and Ashley County Arkansas. Morehouse has about 25K population. Ashley has about 20K. Morehouse has reported 93 cases and 5 deaths. Ashley has reported 19 cases and 0 deaths. Another reason to call BS on the false reporting happening in Louisiana.
Why would you expect the two parish/counties to be the same? Outbreaks aren’t a homogenous thing.Quote:

https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articl...fatalities
That same story has another graph that demonstrates that the risk of dying from Coronavirus is EXACTLY the same as the risk of dying from Influenza for a person in the 25-34 year old age bracket. Furthermore, people in the age brackets under age 25 have a GREATER chance of dying from Influenza than they do of dying from Coronavirus.
Since 90% of college football players fit into the under 25 age bracket, this means college athletes --as an age group-- are more likely to die from Influenza than Coronavirus. So it's accurate to state that --for this age group-- the death rate for Coronavirus and Influenza victims are relatively equivalent.
Again.....just the facts....
Yet, they are just as likely to be a vector for COVID to accelerate its spread. Just like the dumbasses that are running around without masks acting like it’s not a pandemic causing flare ups in Texas, Arkansas and Alabama right now.Quote:
