No, what I’m saying is a 40x PCR test can detect such a small viral load that a 78yo patient dying of COPD (for example) can come back positive for COVID even if they are not symptomatic w/COVID and not infectious. Yet they are still counted as a “COVID death”.

They’re not symptomatic, but they die? Please cite your evidence. Quit repeating propaganda.

Vicki, I’m just a guy trying to figure out what’s going on so I can make an accurate threat assessment for my family. I’m trying to untangle the mess of propaganda swirling out there right now. I’m not trying to add to it, ok? I have no other agenda here.

No, you’re listening to propaganda and you believe it. You listen to people who have ZERO idea how deaths are determined and counted, but the clinicians and epidemiologists who work with the data are wrong. You’ve never explained how surging healthcare is good.

Is this the sort of propaganda to which I shouldn’t be listening?

In my view, the COVID pandemic was almost immediately caught up in the political shit storm of 2020. So I had no clear way to tell what was actually going on out there, which is a very uncomfortable feeling for a guy like me. ...1/

3/3... So I’m just trying to go back and figure out what happened in 2020 now that we have some preliminary data. I’m interested in facts, not gaslighting chicken-little Media hysteria or moronic political propaganda. I’ve had enough of that nonsense, believe me.

Funny, but for someone who isn't interested in gaslighting, you're sure doing a good job of gaslighting what science says about #COVID19.
