Why I can't trust the media about Covid-19 / Coronavirus?

(This was intended for social media use,, because I keep hearing the same stupid things about the virus and needed to have a template so I can answer. Feel free to copy paste anything you need, if you need it).

Also I know there are many people that are in a very bad financial situation right now because of the virus, but if you can send even 10 cent via paypal it would help. Please don't send money if you have financial problems. Keep your money for you and your family.

I compiled a list of questions and answers because I am bored to keep typing the same shit. This is a first draft but I thought what the hell just upload it. Someone might find it useful.

1. Covid 19 is more deadly than the flu.

No it isn’t. Based on the stats it currently has a 0.2% in people from the age 10-39 and a 0.4% in people from the age of 40-49. After that it goes up as you age. In these percentages are included people with pre existing conditions like cancer, heart problems, auto immune diseases etc. At the same time obesity and smoking is also included.


2. Yeah but these stats are still higher than the flu.

Agreed. But the problem here is that we don’t know how many people have the disease. So far we test people that are suspected to have covid19 or people that have been admitted to the hospital or have died with cononavirus. That means that the people that just stay home and ride the virus out and the people with no symptoms are not included in the cases.

Based on a recent article, in Iceland they tested 10% of the population (in random not only the people I mentioned above) and found out that from the 1600 that were positive of the virus 800 had no symptoms. That means that the denominator of how many people have the covid19 is at least double the cases we have today. That would half all the above death rates in question 1. That makes it as deadly as the normal flu.


Another thing that makes covid19 less deadly is that the CDC stated that if someone dies WITH the virus, they die FROM the virus. That makes no sense for a simple reason. If someone has the virus and is asymptomatic (as we saw above that can be even 50% of the deaths) and dies from stage 4 cancer, classifying him as dead from Covid19 is stupid.

A good example on that is AIDS. AIDS by itself doesn’t kill you. But even the flu can kill you since you don’t have any immunity. If we classified that death as flu that means there are 0 deaths up to date for AIDS.

See the video for proof:

That drives the death rate up, up to 50% as we say above. Another thing that makes no sense is that now doctors can assign you a coronavirus death certificate even without testing you for it.

“COVID-19 should be reported on the death certificate for all decedents where the disease caused or is assumed to have caused or contributed to death. “

Again that drives deaths up. So we can clearly see that the death rate might even be even lower than the flu. And yes it appears that it spreads more (although there is no such proof yet hence why all the death rates in the US models proved wrong).

3. If this is true why hospitals are at their limit?

That’s a great question and that’s one of the reasons for the lock down. Government across the world have not paid much attention to the increasing need for more ICUs and beds. Either due to immigration or either due to the fact that we live unhealthy lives (come on, did you wash your hands as much before? There are countries that 30% of the population doesn’t wash their hands after leaving the bathroom), or due to the fact of an aging population (see Italy), the hospitals can’t deal with illnesses not just this year but every year. Although it is easy to google for it, I did it for you:



Just because you hear about it this year, it doesn’t mean it didn’t happen before. Overall, the CDC estimates that 12,000 and 61,000 deaths annually since 2010 can be blamed on the flu. Globally, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that the flu kills 290,000 to 650,000 people per year. 


Blame your governments for not employing enough doctors and not buying enough ICUs. Lock downs is a way to cover their asses. Do you really think these people care so much for you that they would close down the economy to protect you? What are you? 12 years old?

4. This is bullshit. Look at Italy.

Ah yes the dot in the graph that doesn’t match the other dots but everyone is talking about it. As I mentioned Italy has the second highest percentage of elderly people in the world. If you bothered seeing any of my links before you can see that the virus is exceptionally scary (like the flu) to old people.


At the same time Northern Italy has quality of air (pollution) that can be compared with China’s. There is a direct link based on the study here:

Again this is nothing new about Italy (as with many other countries to be honest) This is an article investigating excess mortality in Italy for the periods of 2013/14-2016-17. More than 68,000 deaths attributable to flu epidemics were estimated in the study period. Italy showed a higher influenza attributable excess mortality compared to other European countries. especially in the elderly.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31401203

Would you look at that. This has happened before. How come the media didn’t tell us about it? That’s rhetorical of course. How come you didn’t see army trucks carrying dead or cemeteries not having enough space back then? Just because something the media doesn’t show you, it doesn’t mean it is non existent.


“More than 99% of Italy’s coronavirus fatalities were people who suffered from previous medical conditions, according to a study by the country’s national health authority. “

And also look at this:
https://off-guardian.org/2020/03/23/italy-only-12-of-covid19-deaths-list-covid19-as-cause/

in Italy, Covid-19 is listed as the cause of death even if a patient was already ill and died from a combination of illnesses. “Only 12 per cent of death certificates have shown a direct causality from coronavirus,” said the scientific adviser to Italy’s minister of health last week.

So take the number of deaths in Italy and reduce it to 12%. See how this dot falls in line with the other dots?

5. What about the Hart Island in NY? The cemeteries are full and they have to bury the dead there.

Seriously if you search for Hart Island the first result you get is this:

“A spokeswoman for Mayor Bill de Blasio said on Thursday that it was likely some coronavirus victims would be sent to Hart Island, where for 150 years New York City has buried its unclaimed dead and those whose families are too poor to afford private burials. “

THIS IS HAPPENING THE PAST 150 years!!! But again, they left that small detail out.

6. Why people test positive even after they are cured?

The tests currently used are not the best ones and if you search PCR tests wiki in Google you will find this:


It lists the test limitations. But that has as a result that someone goes to the hospital, he is diagnosed positive in coronavirus and when his symptoms go away he takes another test that this time it says he doesn’t have the virus. He goes home and then goes back to the hospital because he doesn’t feel good. He gets tested again and he is positive.

Obviously the exit test he got was wrong and while he tested negative he was still suffering from Covid19. Once the immune system has antibodies you can’t get sick from the same disease. Your body knows how to kill the virus.


7) Governments sacrifice their people for the economy.

Let me first start by saying that if you believe this you should take an economics 101 class. It will help you with all aspects of your life and especially it will help you in a way that people don’t look at you like the idiot that you are.


By destroying the economy of a country you destroy its healthcare. Remember when I mentioned above that the politicians use the lock downs to cover their asses because the healthcare of the country sucks? Now imagine if the economy gets busted. Do you think the situation will improve? Do you think money grow on trees?

Hospitals need ICUs that cost money. Hospitals need to employ doctors and nurses that need salaries. Hospitals need medical equipment like, I don’t know… MASKS AND VENDILATORS! Also their machines need maintenance. Who do you think is gonna pay for all that?

Also forget any new drugs that fight viruses because no money means no more research and development. You wanted that cancer drug at some point right? Yeah not gonna happen.

With the lock downs how many people lost their jobs? How many people lost their businesses? Daddy government can pay for some months some welfare but to do so it needs to increase taxes. As I mentioned contrary to popular belief of people with no economic knowledge, money don’t grow on trees.

People that are young and without pre existing conditions need to go to work and protect the ones that are older and sick. This is win win.

We already have a surge of suicides because of the lock down:


A California teen girl died by suicide — likely while grappling with the stress caused by coronavirus lockdowns, according to reports.

8) Who cares, lets stay in till this is over. Social distancing etc

The reason our species is successful is because from the early days we were able to form packs and be social so we can cover each others’ deficiencies. One will hunt, the other will cook, the other will treat the people etc etc.

Social distancing and isolation (along with a bad economy) leads to many problems. While you will save some people from Coronavirus, more will die from suicides, depression, lack of exercise and malnutrition etc.

At the same time, if we accept the findings of Iceland many of us already have the virus. Locking us up with our elderly parents and grand parents will only increase the chances that they will get infected.

At the same time snitching on each other is a great way to destroy any kind of cohesion our society has. Finally something that has helped us all these years was herd immunity. Yes it works. Yes you need to read about it to understand it. It doesn’t mean we should all go out and get sick. But given Iceland more or less we already are sick.

Finally many experts and epidemiologists have spoken about our over reaction to this virus:

Montana physician Dr. Annie Bukacek discusses how COVID 19 death certificates are being manipulated:



Perspectives on the Pandemic Episode 2: In this explosive second edition of Perspectives on the Pandemic, Professor Knut Wittkowski, for twenty years head of The Rockefeller University's Department of Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Research Design, says that social distancing and lockdown is the absolutely worst way to deal with an airborne respiratory virus. Further, he offers data to show that China and South Korea had already reached their peak number of cases when they instituted their containment measures. In other words, nature had already achieved, or nearly achieved, herd immunity:


Dr John P.A. Ioannidis is a professor of medicine and professor of epidemiology and population health, as well as professor by courtesy of biomedical data science at Stanford University School of Medicine, professor by courtesy of statistics at Stanford University School of Humanities and Sciences, and co-director of the Meta-Research Innovation Center at Stanford (METRICS) at Stanford University.

Finally I will close with the words of Benjamin Franklin

“Any society that will give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both”
