Hospitals have a huge financial incentive to inflate COVID-19 deaths, place patients on ventilators

USA Today fact-checked the claim being made about hospitals getting paid more for patients listed as COVID-19, and three times as much if that patient needs a ventilator, and found it to be true.

I wonder how many were placed on a ventilator unnecessarily and wound up dying as a result? If so, it’s another massive scandal brewing. From this Time article:

“Generally speaking, 40% to 50% of patients with severe respiratory distress die while on ventilators, experts say. But 80% or more of coronavirus patients placed on the machines in New York City have died, state and city officials say.”

The term ‘ventilator’ itself doesn’t convey what actually occurs when a patient is made to use it. The patient must first be put into a medically-induced coma. Next, a breathing tube is inserted into the lungs. Patients are kept in this comatose state for weeks at a time. Could you imagine being stuck inside a hospital with doctors and administrators with an enormous financial incentive to list you as a COVID-19 patient and then force you into a weeks’-long coma on a machine that could very well kill you? Has that been happening in hospitals in NYC?

43,000 U.S. healthcare workers laid off in a single month

The apocalyptic crisis in healthcare currently unfolding is unbelievably tragic, but entirely self-inflicted. Coronavirus didn’t cause these workers to lose their jobs, or the hundreds of hospitals to close. It was the government response that has decimated U.S. healthcare in less than two months’ time. By prohibiting every procedure other than COVID-19 treatment, government at every level accomplished what no virus ever could. Hospitals across the country have been almost completely empty as a result of this policy, a fact that the mainstream media is finally acknowledging after weeks of branding everyone that mentioned it a conspiracy theorist. Thousands of cancer patients have been forced to to wait in agony as their scheduled treatments were cancelled. Organ transplants were cancelled as well, all in anticipation of a COVID-19 surge that never occurred.

This has to be the most ghoulish, inhumane, and criminal public policy in my lifetime. Will anyone stand trial? Doubtful, and blame will be passed around like a hot potato until the public loses interest. This is an outrage.

Oxygen deprivation from N95 mask causes driver to pass out, crash

New Jersey resident had been wearing the mask for hours.

A very real danger from wearing face masks for hours is slow suffocation from breathing the trapped carbon dioxide.

This should inform the chorus of public school administrators who demand that children be forced to wear masks if schools reopen in the fall. Do we want kids breathing carbon dioxide for 8 hours each day?

Pennsylvania falsely inflated the state’s COVID-19 deaths by at least 200, is now removing them from body count

The state just removed 200 deaths from their total coronavirus death toll.

More states will surely follow. The preposterous inclusion of “probable coronavirus deaths” by health departments across the country has dishonestly inflated the stats, and has warped the public’s perception of the danger of COVID-19, feeding the unnecessary panic and fear.

Photographers stage photo-ops with fake nurses to smear protesters at anti-lockdown rallies

Multiple news articles have been circulating that contain photographs of nurses blocking the cars of lockdown protesters during the recent rallies. The corporate media goons have dubbed these nurses “heroes” for going out on a limb to oppose the protesters, as well as serve their pro-lockdown narrative.

Many first-hand accounts tell a different story about these nurses: that they arrived with the photographers, staged a few quick photographs in front of cars while at stoplights, and then walked away. Now there is proof: check out this video.

 

Fake news is the rule rather than the exception among the giant corporate media outlets. This is how your consent is manufactured.

Protesters gather outside home of the coward cop that arrested Sarah Brady

Ammon Bundy was present at the protest of the spineless thuggery exhibited by the cop that arrested Sarah Brady, a young mother who arranged a play-date with friends and their children at the local park. It was an act of civil disobedience, yes, but one so benign, so innocent, that anyone attempting to stop it would surely look the part of a petty authoritarian with nothing better to do.

When a society moves from freedom to authoritarianism, the quality and character of law enforcement change as well. That change is in the direction of “serve and protect”, to becoming the armed enforcers of the totalitarian state’s diktats. The officers who have any qualms about beating and arresting citizens for dissident political opinions or non-conformist beliefs will shown the door, and in will come the thugs that have no problem with brutality.

Mass antibody test in New York finds a 13.9% rate of infection

At least 2.7 million New Yorkers have developed antibodies to COVID-19, proving what we’ve all been saying from the beginning: the infection is widespread, highly contagious, and about as dangerous as the seasonal flu. But will the governor and local mayors relinquish power? Something very dangerous has occurred within government at every level: the most evil entity to have ever existed, the State, has been let out of its cage, and it does not want to go back in.
