my wife did a girls night video call with her high school friends and her friend who was a nurse (but pivoted to selling mlm poo poo) literally said "sometimes I get really worried but other times I just think it's China manipulating us"

She sounds pretty consistent with the red flags.

My MIL is a former nurse who moved to MLMs and posting about the dangers of GMOs. We somehow got lulled into thinking she was taking this virus seriously because she was talking like she was but by “taking this seriously” she meant “only going to the store 3 times a week”.

malls are uniquely lovely for any purpose other than being a mall. people have investigated turning deadmalls into housing etc. turns out two bathrooms for every 20 units and no cooking facilities means theyre uninhabitable. they are worthless un-repurposeable properties, the perfect monument to capitalism

Outcry over racial data grows as virus slams black Americans

The data came mostly from large, racially diverse cities and states, but even in states where nonwhite populations are large, the impact of COVID-19 was outsized, particularly on the black community. The effect was so large that even if the 1,200 death cases that the AP excluded from its analysis because they were recorded as “race unknown” turned out to be white patients, blacks still would be overrepresented in the share of cases — and even more so in the share of deaths.

For instance, Louisiana tracked demographic data in 512 deaths and found 70% of victims were black, despite African Americans comprising just 32% of the state’s population. In Michigan, more than half of the deaths where race data was collected were black residents; the state’s population is 14% black.

Illinois’ population is 17% Hispanic and 14% black yet, as of Monday, 63% of its caseload of more than 9,000 COVID cases with racial data recorded were nonwhite residents, and at least 40% of the state’s 307 victims were black.

ZIP code data in New York City released last week showed that black, brown and immigrant communities are disproportionately represented among the diagnosed virus cases and deaths. On Wednesday, the city’s Department of Health released racial data showing 27.5% of the victims whose race is known are black, although blacks are only about 22% of the population.

ah yes, the totally unreasonable thing of saying that if someone has been exposed to covid-19 and dies of covid-19 symptoms that you might attribute their death to covid-19 despite the fact that they don't qualify for testing because testing is limited and they're dead.

The President has never acknowledged that testing is limited, and that's that.

The French are finding a lot of dead in their nursing homes.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/in-france-scrutiny-of-nursing-homes-brings-soaring-coronavirus-death-toll-11586384344

So in five days France have discovered an additional 2,600+ dead in their nursing homes and only half the nations nursing homes have reported.

quote:

In Northern Italy, officials say the virus has ripped through nursing homes, leaving at least hundreds of people dead who haven’t been included in the country’s official coronavirus death toll of more than 17,000. That’s because they, and countless others, were never tested.
There's also this from Italy. Where they're not even testing.
