The state that doesn’t care if you live or die
Ask the average person in whatever country you choose what his chances of hospitalization with or death from COVID are and the answers will shock you. Nearly everyone you speak to is completely uninformed.
Naturally it is impossible to make rational decisions amidst this degree of ignorance.
Now is as good a time as any for some perspective.
The survival rate for people in the 0-19 age group is 99.997 percent. For 20-29 it’s 99.986 percent. You can find all the figures in the graphic below.
The data come from a recent paper by Stanford’s Cathrine Axfors and John Ioannidis, “Infection fatality rate of COVID-19 in community-dwelling populations with emphasis on the elderly: An overview.” Here’s how it breaks down:
A person under 50 is therefore at greater risk of death from drowning, choking on food, sunstroke, or from a sharp object.
This is not to say that we’re not dealing with a nasty virus for some people who contract it. But do you think the average person has any idea that the numbers for survival are this high?
In the UK, the Daily Mail just published an article called, “Is it time to stop obsessing over Covid figures? Statistics reveal virus is NOT the biggest killer — with heart disease, dementia and cancer each claiming four times as many lives in an average week last month.”
“Even before the rollout of the vaccine,” the article notes, “fewer than one per cent of people who caught Covid died. Now, scientists say that figure is ten times smaller.”
They included this graphic, for perspective:
Much as I welcome this, it’s pretty rich for the British press (or indeed any press) to publish an article and a chart like that, though, scratching their heads as to why people are obsessed about COVID, when they themselves are directly responsible for the misinformation that brought about that obsession.
Remember when the Washington Post called Iowa the “state that doesn’t care if you live or die” when that state removed its COVID restrictions? That was seven months ago.
Here’s the chart. Think we’re going to hear any apologies, or any “gee, I guess I don’t understand this virus as well as I thought,” or…?
That’s enough perspective for one day.

Where does the mortality risk chart come from? It is not in the preprint of the Ioannidis paper.

The data is not up to date for Iowa. Iowa is similar to the USA as a whole…no. cases spiking up…and deaths are upturned as of Sep.3…..the cases for Iowa and the USA are spiking towards old highs…deaths are upturned but not near old highs…Joe Rogan recently had the virus and used multiple treatments including some Ivermectin…sez he was over it in a few days….radio news person sez Ivermectin is a animal medicine…doesn’t know that is not true. I was expecting this virus crap to be blown over by now….this new sudden spike is amazing.

Hi T.C.,
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/usa/iowa/
Using 3-day moving average => 2021-09-03 ~ 0 deaths…
Cheers, JaKo

Nice one.
Realistically, I’d have to guess TC is being obtusely sarcastic. Coz if that’s the level of employed trolling misinformation, they have no chance.

Sorry, I use Johns Hopkins data ….CDC data ….which shows Iowa on Sept. 3 about 40% back towards the last peak and an uptick in deaths….Iowa is not a typical state and some stares like Florida have already exceeded the previous peak….the national average is spiking upwards towards the last peak so who cares about Iowa? The rate of increase is faster than the last peak…other countries are having this second spike…haven’t checked the UK in about a week but it was retreating from its move towards a second peak and then fell some and resumed an upward move. It appears that you and “slender-man” are children playing a game.

Btw, just want to mention that I’m not a fan of Iowa (you can think industry, govt for that).
This is a serious problem:
https://www.medicine.news/2021-09-03-thomas-renz-discusses-how-hospitals-covid-protocols-are-killing-patients.html
“They’re coming in with symptoms that aren’t COVID, being told ‘it’s COVID,’ and they immediately push ventilation,” he says. “Even if there’s evidence of something similar to COVID, they aren’t testing for things like bacterial pneumonia.“
Tavares concurred, again drawing from her experience with her father’s hospitalization. Saying that patients like her father were being put through COVID-19 protocols regardless of whether or not they had the disease.
But what made things worse, according to her, was the fact that patients’ families were not allowed to go in.
This is important for anyone being admitted to hospital because, as Renz points out, one of the top five causes of death in the U.S. is due to hospital error “without families being there to oversee it.”
That’s a SERIOUS problem with idiot pieces of shit. Like treating an abstracted name (a suggestion based on fraudulent conflation of symptoms, btw), with homogenized protocols and toxic methodology. You will always worsen things like way. Always. Which is why vaccines always worsen things, or specific drugs, regardless of the personal health status.
