If your child goes in for a broken leg to the Hospital, that counts as Covid stay

99.watever% recovery rate this isnt the American plagues of the 16th century or some shyt. That's how it's been touted.
I think what’s problematic is when we discuss numbers in percentages it can be misleading without context. In a country of 330 million people, if we are taking about 1% from the 99% we are still talking 3.3 million people that won’t recover. Saying 3.3 million people isn’t concerning is problematic.

How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
Hospitalizations may not be a useful metric. I noticed that the Coli's spin doctor is twisting this around @Dafunkdoc_Unlimited

'They may go in for a broken leg'
: Fauci says child COVID-19 hospitalizations are overblown.

Fauci points out that many of the kids included in count of COVID-19 hospitalizations actually tested positive after being hospitalized for another reason.


My wife is currently in the hospital for a broken femur and tested positive for Covid, so she is there for the broken femur and on the Covid floor. I have Covid and am not in the hospital. I don’t understand what the difference is, if she had not broken her femur, would she be in the hospital? Maybe, maybe not, but the fact still remains, she has Covid and is taking up a bed in the hospital, on the Covid floor.

Ehhhh that's still kinda slippery I think. That article states that the CARES incentives still apply, just only for the uninsured and Medicare patients. This is just my personal intuition, there's definitely room for juking numbers in that instance.

Not to mention the example Dr. Coles gave about the terminal cancer patient dying in a car accident and it may or may not be reported on the death certificate based on the judgment call of , the coroner I'm assuming, is still kinda meh to me. Why not just disclose all of it you know?

I mean even in the example this thread is about, if your relative or wifey or whomever went to the hospital for a broken leg -and let's just up the stakes here, hypothetically- and she caught and died from a COVID-19 pneumonia, I mean wouldn't your antennas go off in a situation like that? Wouldn't you be like 'she came here to get her leg repaired and now she's dead because pneumonia ?! And that's the only thing you're putting on the death certificate too???!!!! ':gucci:

link notes that hospitals get a 20% increase in payout for those uninsured or on Medicare. this isn't saying much since the majority of folks who died of covid are



Drum roll....


On Medicare. All Americans 65+ qualify for it. Currently 64 million Americans are on Medicare

COVID-19 deaths by age U.S. 2021 | Statista


65+ make up 75% of total covid deaths.

-20 people go to the hospital for broken bones & 5 test positive for Covid with no symptoms. News report says 25% of people in the hospital are there due to Covid. It's false information.

I mean was the child showing symptoms? Why would you do a covid test for a broken leg? Basically it seems like they are trying to increase the number of cases on purpose any way they can.
You anti vaxxers are fukking retarded. We’re in the middle of an infectious pandemic. Hospitals are going to test you to protect fellow patients as well. But you morons really want them to test less so that numbers go down. :stopitslime:

OP wants to make it seem like if you go in for a broken leg, they mark you down as covid. No. They just test you for covid regardless of what you’re in for, because again, we’re in the middle of a fukking global pandemic.

Go choke on a bleach and ivermectin cocktail.

How frequently is that happening to have any meaningful effect though?

I agree with it because although they may not be showing symptoms they are spreading the virus as well

Don't let us find out asymptomatic children are the real super spreaders :dead:

COVID is the excuse for everything.

housing prices
Car prices
Shortages
Everything

it ain’t going anywhere any time soon. It is convenient as fukk for many people in power. Get vaccinated and do what you are supposed to do for the next few years. Like Chris Rock said, there is no money in the cure.

They been manipulating the fukk out these hospitalization stats and all kind of Covid related shyt damn near since the beginning. shyt been politicized and people and organizations and politicians been cherry picking stats and manipulating and misleading to fit whatever agenda they tying to push.

Now this is on either side. Since y’all still mothafukkas gotta put y’all self and everyone else in a box of pro vax or anti vax. A lot of y’all bout dumb as fukk. But since it’s these vax wars, I want to make it a point that this manipulating of stats and shyt are done by those for and against the vaccine.

This is a clear case of purposeful faulty reporting and yet you still have some members in this thread trying to justify or blow it off as no big deal. Probably cause they scared to be considered anti vax or because they so caught up in being pro vax. It’s is a what it is though, everybody been finessing with these stats
