It’s always when there’s any good news so to speak to sort of say hey maybe the virus is not quite as deadly as bad as we thought that always gets dinged but it’s never the other way around when you know demonstratively they over straight state the number of deaths
Um we’ve already seen that with the imperial college it’s been overstated somehow that never gets retracted you know so that that in itself is is very interesting basically there’s nothing really new here other than it originally came from someone associated with the economics department at uh johns hopkins
Um but basically even the new york times many publications have been pointing out that heart attacks and other common causes of death seem to be down and and that’s very puzzling and it’s something that needs to be studied and what this economics professor did it was an hour long video
Presentation and then it looks like a student in one of their uh newsletters wrote up kind of an interview and an article on it which is not necessarily synonymous with everything she she said as any article is that if you if you take everything in totality what it seems to be
Is that the virus is mainly killing those who are slated to die within the year which is why she noted from her data it doesn’t appear that there are excess deaths this year in the year 2020 that are over and beyond the baseline that we traditionally have so in other words if
You would have the same amount of let’s say five year average of heart attacks strokes pneumonia deaths you would have 260 thousand coveted excess deaths on top of that what you’re seeing is almost a displacement that almost commensurately with the drop in a death from those other common causes is the
Official number of 260 000 or so covades which would suggest at least according to her research that it’s primarily people not just that were maybe maybe unhealthy or had underlying conditions some of them certainly get sick and maybe are hospitalized but the one to ultimately die for the most part with some exceptions
Seemed to be those who were slated to die anyway and statistically sort of and one of two things are happening and i think it’s a mixture of both to a certain extent there is misclassification yes so this is your case as someone testing positive but they didn’t really
Have such a symptomatic case but they died of other things it’s that’s automatically covered that we already know from cdc guidance or others that legitimately were gotten by it but they were in hospice for example just on sunday a bunch of rutgers university uh uh immunologist came out with a study of
Two hospitals in new jersey from may where they looked at 650 people who died there and they found 90 of them had dnr orders on them now if you’re the typical 65 68 year old guy maybe has some diabetes in heart condition and you you get sick with covet you’re
In the hospital you’re not going to have a pre-existing dnr order on you no no you don’t because you if you’re if you’re 65 years old uh most likely you haven’t been in and had those giant conversations yet with your family on just i don’t want to be
On a machine for a long time um it’s a a great piece also on blaze tv or bladetheblaze.com you can uh hear uh daniel’s uh podcast also on the blaze the conservative review podcast daniel horowitz thank you so much for being on the program with us
Really enjoyed it thank you so stu i want to switch to you on the news that you were talking about yesterday we only have a minute that we’re going to see numbers go up on covid cases and they’re going to be blamed on thanksgiving yeah it’s just a quirk in
The data that basically a lot of places i mean like texas didn’t report for several days any numbers because of the thanksgiving break so what we’re seeing if you look at the charts uh the last few days you might be encouraged by them because you’re seeing a downturn in almost every measure
And what is likely going to happen and today’s the day it’s going to start is we’re going to see all these deaths and cases piled up from last week that were not reported all get reported in the next couple of days and they’re going to say look at look at thanksgiving everyone
Went and they didn’t listen they didn’t listen to us on thanksgiving we need to do more restrictive measures more lockdowns you’re going to see that call because these numbers are going to go through the roof and maybe hit all-time highs over the next few days into the coming weeks so it’s something
To look for forward to uh as we get these numbers today and i don’t mean forward as you’re excited but like looking into the future because if we don’t know the facts on that they’re going to use it again and now that you know the facts you can look forward to straighten
Straightening out the narrative
