One of the last Tuskegee Airman recently died at over 100 years of age, his death was listed as Covid.

    Yes people get Covid and die from it. Far more often the press and hospitals conspire to inflate the number of actual Covid deaths.
    Old people....... let me make this clear to you. Old people have lungs made like an old bit of carpet, instead of being able to repair itself they’ve breathed in so much dust, (tobacco/paper) tar, toxic chemicals, damp air....the list is endless. Yes! Old people have very weak lungs.

    This virus is unique, it’s not like a flu, this virus you drown in your own lung/chest fluid. It’s Taylor made for weak old lungs, people with health issues.....or quite simply anybody who has a weak composition.
    RIP Wes

    I do believe hospital staff and doctors would know it was covid they were treating you for, the fact you were gasping for an oxygen mask would tell you their lungs were collapsing.

    When you get paid for each Covid death, well, you call it Covid.

    The United States is approaching a grim milestone—the impending moment when half a million Americans will have lost their lives to the coronavirus. It’s a staggering number that’s painful to think about, and even harder to picture. Research into our evolution shows that the human brain is not inherently wired to make sense of large numbers; other studies show that people also have become adept at suppressing trauma to cope with grief. In 2020, the U.S. saw a more than 15 percent increase in deaths over the prior year, the highest year-on-year rise in deaths across the U.S. since 1918, which experienced both a global flu epidemic and the First World War.
    The colossal death toll forces us to confront a distressing, ever growing number that has affected some groups more than others. Most of the dead have been Americans 65 and over. People of color are also dying at disproportionate rates: Deaths among Black Americans are 1.9 times higher than among non-Hispanic whites, Hispanics and Latinos 2.3 times higher, and Native Americans 2.4 times higher. The deadly sum of it all is hard to fathom.
    What does the loss of so many lives look like? Here are some ways to envision what 500,000 really means.

    This thread is not the lighter site.

    You're going to find that some here think the toll is less than 10,000 and the ones that died would have died anyway.
    Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation

    500,00 extra a shutdown and it's dismissed. Covid 19 has become a political battle.

    Yeah, that's what I meant. Not whether or not the Healthcare workers knew if it was covid or something else.
