    CDC: Only 6% died from covid-only

    Duke asked about this in the picture thread. "Is it really true?"

    If you search on google, absolutely nothing shows up.
    Use duckduckgo, dozens of links.

    Here's one:


    Bret Baier of "Fox News Sunday" asked Dr. Walensky how many of the 836,000 deaths in the U.S. linked to COVID were in fact from COVID or with COVID but with other comorbidities.

    "Yes of course with omicron we're following that very carefully," Dr. Walensky replied vaguely, as reported by Fox News. "Our death registry of course takes a few weeks...to collect. And of course omicron has just been with us for a few weeks. But those data will be forthcoming."

    Dr. Walensky's dissatisfactory answer frustrated critics of the Biden administration, who have been pushing the agency to clarify that distinction about COVID deaths and deaths from comorbidities with COVID for some time now.

    Radio host Buck Sexton took to Twitter to criticize the CDC, writing, "The CDC has managed to take the title of most inept, useless, corrupt 3 letter agency in the federal government, which is a pretty damn impressive achievement."

    Republican commentator Matt Whitlock also took to Twitter to remark that the actual data should be released as it is often being used as an excuse to implement strict lockdowns and other measures such as vaccine and mask mandates. Whitlock wrote, "Seems like this would be good to know by now - as wildly consequential moves about school closures, lockdowns, and vax mandates are relying on that kind of information."

    "When the corrupt US Government addressed COVID they put in place unique ways of reporting deaths," The Gateway Pundit argued. "They began by claiming every death where someone was suspected of having COVID when they died was to be recorded as a COVID death."

    The report said that only 6% of all deaths were actually due to COVID, while the remaining 94% were due to other underlying conditions that the COVID patient had. Moreover, these patients were labeled as dying from COVID despite having two or more comorbidities.

      well I'll be the counterpoint here and say that doesn't mean what you think it means. A "comorbidity" just means an additional thing. If a fat guy with diabetes catches covid, and it kills him, your implication is that it "wasn't covid". Which isn't really accurate. Sure, covid does not seem to really just kill healthy people outright. But since nearly 50% of Americans are obese, and obesity is commonly associated with other issues (heart disease, diabetes, etc.), that means that most Americans walking around have comorbidities as a starting condition. Therefore, the stats you reference actually tell us that covid is killing people who are already weak, and an additional 6% that are otherwise healthy. Now I still don't think that warrants the lockdowns and mandates etc. I'll give you the point about them "assuming" covid simply due to symptoms, that's crap and bad science.

        6% of 800K is 48K in two years so 24K per year. That is a normal flu year. I suspect the truth is somewhere in between. The current 800K number is preposterous. It is plausible that the vaccines have killed thousands, and will kill thousands more in the years to come.

          It wasn't covid. The guy was a fatty/diabetic... that's what killed him. He could have caught a cold, the flu, pneumonia, anything. He had one foot in the grave. Could have fallen down the stairs and broke his hip. Someone in poor condition is bedridden for a month - it's the poor health that kills him, not the fall. Healthy people recover.

          Covid just happens to be an efficient way to cull the weaklings. (By design, some would say)
