The Global Elites Population Cull by Terence Smart (epub e ink reader TXT) 📕

leukaemia treated with chemotherapy; a 46-year-old woman with motor neurone disease for 2 years. All develop chest infections and die. All test positive for Covid-19. Yet all were vulnerable to death by chest infection from any infective cause (including the flu). Covid-19 might have been the final straw, but it has not caused their deaths. Consider two more cases: a 75-year-old man with mild heart failure and bronchitis; a 35-year-old woman who was previously fit and well with no known medical conditions. Both contract a chest infection and die, and both test positive for Covid-19. In the first case it is not entirely clear what weight to place on the pre-existing conditions versus the viral infection – to make this judgement would require an expert clinician to examine the case notes. The final case would reasonably be attributed to death caused by Covid-19, assuming it was true that there were no underlying conditions” - John Lee is a recently retired professor of pathology and a former NHS consultant pathologist - https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/how-to-understand-and-report-figures-for-covid-19-deaths-

Coronavirus and Dodgy Death Numbers by F. William Engdahl who is a strategic risk consultant and lecturer, he holds a degree in politics from Princeton University and is a best-selling author on oil and geopolitics: “Not only are the coronavirus models being used by WHO and most national health agencies based on highly dubious methodologies - and not only are the tests of wildly different quality, only confirming indirectly antibodies suggesting possible COVID-19 illness - now the actual designations of deaths related to coronavirus are being revealed to be equally problematic for a variety of reasons. It gives alarming food for thought as to the wisdom of deliberately putting most of the world's people - and with it the world economy - into Gulag-style lockdown on the argument it is necessary to contain deaths and prevent overloading of hospital emergency services.

When we take a closer look at the definitions used in various countries for "death related to COVID-19" we get a very different picture than what is claimed to be the deadliest plague to threaten mankind since the 1918 'Spanish Flu'.

The USA and CDC definitions

As of today the US is said to be the nation with by far the largest number of COVID-19 deaths, with US media reporting some 68,000 "Covid-19" deaths. Here is where it gets very dodgy. The government agency responsible for making the cause-of-death tally for the country, the the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta, is making huge changes in how they count those deaths.

As of May 5, the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) of the CDC, the central agency recording cause of death nationwide, reported 39,910 COVID-19 deaths. A footnote defines this as "Deaths with confirmed or presumed COVID-19." How a doctor makes the "presumed" judgment leaves huge latitude to the hospital and health professionals. Although the coronavirus tests are known to be subject to false results, CDC states that even where no tests have been made, a doctor can "presume" COVID-19. Useful to note for perspective is the number of US deaths recorded from all causes in the same period of February 1 through May 2 - that was 751,953.

Now it gets even murkier. The CDC posted this notice: "As of April 14, 2020, CDC case counts and death counts include both confirmed and probable cases and deaths." From that time the number of so-called COVID-19 deaths in USA has exploded in an alarming manner, it would appear. On that day, April 14, New York City's coronavirus death toll was revised: 3,700 fatalities were added, with the provision that the count now included "people who had never tested positive for the virus but were presumed to have it." The CDC now defines 'confirmed' as "confirmatory laboratory evidence for COVID-19," which as we noted elsewhere included tests of dubious precision - but, they are at least tests of some kind. Then they define "probable" as "with no confirmatory laboratory testing performed for COVID-19." Just guesswork of the doctor in charge.

Now leaving aside the major discrepancy between the CDC number of COVID-19 deaths as of May 5 being 68,279, and their detailed total of 39,910 deaths for the same period, we find another problem. Hospitals and doctors are being told to list COVID-19 as cause-of-death even if, say, a patient aged 83 with pre-existing diabetes or cardiac issues or pneumonia dies with or without COVID-19 tests. The CDC advises, "In cases where a definite diagnosis of COVID cannot be made but is suspected or likely (e.g. the circumstances are compelling with a reasonable degree of certainty), it is acceptable to report COVID-19 on a death certificate as 'probable' or 'presumed.'" This opens the door ridiculously wide for abuse of coronavirus death numbers in the United States.

A Big Money Incentive

A provision in the March 2020 Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, known as the CARES Act, gives a major incentive for hospitals in the US, most all of them private for-profit concerns, to deem newly-admitted patients as "presumed COVID-19." By this simple method the hospital then qualifies for a substantially larger payment from government Medicare insurance, the national insurance for those over 65. The word "presumed" is not scientific, not at all precise, but very tempting for hospitals concerned about their income in this crisis.

Dr Summer McGhee, Dean of the School of Health Sciences at the University of New Haven, notes that, "The CARES Act authorized a temporary 20 percent increase in reimbursements from Medicare for COVID-19 patients..." He added that, as a result, "Hospitals that get a lot of COVID-19 patients also get extra money from the government."

Then, according to a Minnesota medical doctor, Scott Jensen, also a State Senator, if that COVID-designated patient is put on a ventilator, even if only presumed to have the illness, the hospital can get reimbursed three times the sum from Medicare. Dr Jensen told a national TV interviewer, "Right now Medicare is determining that if you have a COVID-19 admission to the hospital you get $13,000. If that COVID-19 patient goes on a ventilator you get $39,000, three times as much." Little wonder that states such as Massachusetts suddenly began backdating cause of death totals back to March 30, significantly inflating COVID death numbers, or that New York Governor Andrew Cuomo began demanding 30,000 ventilators and emergency equipment around the same early April time, equipment that was not needed.

In short, COVID-19 death statistics in the US are highly dubious for a variety of reasons, not least huge financial incentives to hospital administrators who had been told to cancel all other operations to make extra room for a predicted 'flood of coronavirus ill'. That rising death toll said to be 'COVID-19 or presumed' impacts the decisions to lock down the economy and in effect create an economic pandemic of unparalleled dimension.

Italy's COVID deaths

Not only are American COVID-19 death numbers open to serious question. If we look closely, most major countries have equally dubious data. Until recently one of the highest COVID-19 death rates in the EU was Italy, where outbreaks have been concentrated in Lombardy and adjacent regions of the industrial north. Here again the definition of cause-of-death has been fuzzy. A report in the Journal of the American Medical Association by a group of Italian doctors who analyzed the alarmingly high Covid-19 figures pointed out that when state medical authorities made detailed case examination of a sample of 355 Covid-19 'presumed' deaths, they found that the mean age was 79.5 years. "In this sample, 117 patients (30%) had ischemic heart disease, 126 (35.5%) had diabetes, 72 (20.3%) had active cancer, 87 (24.5%) had atrial fibrillation, 24 (6.8%) had dementia, and 34 (9.6%) had a history of stroke. The mean number of preexisting diseases was 2.7. Overall, only 3 patients (0.8%) had no diseases." This means that, of the sample, 99.2% had other serious illnesses.

In Italy, the persons who tested positive for COVID-19, regardless of preexisting serious illness, were listed as COVID-19 fatalities. Italy has the EU'S oldest population on average and the worst air pollution in the EU, especially in the Lombardy region. From the first case in early February until 6 May, Italy has declared 29,315 COVID-19 deaths. This is more than the total deaths in 2017 attributed to influenza and/or pneumonia, which was reportedly 25,000.

The reason for the apparent spike should be seriously investigated, but reports of panic among hospital workers over the shutdown declaration by the Conte government, with thousands reportedly fleeing Italy for their home countries in Poland or elsewhere, might have also played a role. On March 31 a report from northern Italy stated, "In recent weeks, most of the Eastern European nurses who worked 24 hours a day, 7 days a week supporting people in need of care in Italy have left the country in a hurry. This is not least because of the panic-mongering and the curfews and border closures threatened by the 'emergency governments.'"

In many countries the picture is one of a predominately mild influenza-like infection with comparable death rates. The lack of uniformly agreed tests and the inaccuracies of many tests used, as well as the extremely doubtful criteria for declaring a cause of death as being "from" COVID-19, suggests that it is well past time to reexamine the unprecedented lockdown measures, social distancing, and possible mandatory vaccines of unproven effect, all of which are creating what is becoming the worst economic depression since the 1930s” – by F.

They are just making up the COVID-19 numbers. The COVID-19 statistics are lies.

We know that coronavirus death counts are being inflated – we just don’t know by how much. After all, how could they not be when there is a financial incentive for states and municipalities to report deaths as coronavirus deaths? And for some states, there may even be a political incentive…

Which is why it shouldn’t come as a total surprise when a man who suffered a fatal motorcycle accident in Florida (June) and was added to the state’s Covid-19 death count. 

Fox T,V 35 did an investigation where they talked to Orange County Health Officer Dr. Raul Pino about two deaths of people in their 20s that were labeled coronavirus deaths. When they asked if the people who died had underlying conditions, Pino responded: “The first one didn’t have any. He died in a motorcycle accident.”

When he was asked about whether or not the motorcycle victim’s data was removed from the state’s Covid system, he responded: 

“I don’t think so. I have to double-check. We were arguing, discussing, or trying to argue with the state. Not because of the numbers — it’s 100…it doesn’t make any difference if it’s 99 — but the fact that the individual didn’t die from COVID-19…died in the crash. But you could actually argue that it could have been the COVID-19 that caused him to crash. I don’t know the conclusion of that one.” (bold emphasis in original article)

The Orange County Health Officer Dr. Raul Pino did not seem to think it was unusual that a man who died from a motorcycle accident is being misrepresented as having died of COVID-19. Apparently, such public officials consider lying as just part of the job. He said he did not think that whether the COVID-19 deaths are 99 or 100 makes a difference. He is missing the point. His office was lying about the cause of death. He does not understand that if that is the kind of reporting that is being done throughout Florida, how do we know if any of the other reported COVID-19 deaths are really COVID-19 deaths.

How pathetic that Dr. Raul Pino even tried to make the irrational argument that it is okay to report a person who died in a motorcycle accident as having died from COVID-19 because “it could have been the COVID-19 that caused him to crash.”

Why would the Florida Health Official make such an irrational argument? Because such judgments are being encouraged by the CDC. In written guidance, the CDC has told local officials to put on the death certificate “probable” or “presumed” death from COVID-19 based upon a clinical judgment (i.e., a guess) without any actual scientific test or diagnosis.

Dr. Pino was taking that guidance from the CDC as a license to guess that maybe the COVID-19 caused the motorcyclist to crash his motorcycle. That is just one example of the COVID-19 death statistic inflation that is going on all over the world. Doctors are making guesses as to the causes of death based upon probability or presumption instead of medical judgments as to the causes of death based upon actual scientific diagnoses of causation.

The motorcycle decedent being falsely reported as dying of COVID-19 is just one example that reveals how COVID-19 death statistics are a complete scam.

Colorado Man Who Dies From Alcohol Poisoning is Listed as a COVID-19 Death

The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) has also followed the CDC guidelines to inflate their COVID-19 numbers. The CDPHE told NBC New 9 Denver that “[w]e classify a death as confirmed when there was a case who had a positive SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) laboratory test and then died. We also classify some deaths as probable.”

With those standards in mind, they are able to classify virtually any death where a person tests positive for COVID-19 as a COVID-19 death, regardless of the actual cause of death, and they are doing so. A case in Montezuma County in Colorado illustrates that point.
