Conspiracy theories flourish where those in power lie and obfuscate. The Wuhan pandemic has been characterised by official lies and cover-ups from its very beginnings.
But if the Chinese government and its cronies at the WHO lied and misled the world and generally screwed up royally, other governments and authorities haven’t been much better.
Governments around the world relied on the scaremongering bullshit of a thoroughly discredited public health official. All evidence indicates the authoritarian response of many governments has made the pandemic worse. Even more egregiously, left-wing governments showed arrogantly blatant double-standards in allowing millions of left-wing protesters to cram into cities while everyone else was banned from even holding weddings or funerals.
So is it any wonder that conspiracy theories are spreading faster than the virus itself? Should it really surprise us that many people are convinced that it is all a hoax, as we find, more and more, that governments and public health authorities are lying to our faces?
After FOX 35 News noticed errors in the state’s report on positivity rates, the Florida Department of Health said that some laboratories have not been reporting negative test result data to the state.
We already know that the number of COVID deaths in Italy was grossly exaggerated. US officials have also admitted that all deaths where the virus was present are attributed to the virus – whether or not it’s what actually killed the person or not. Families have reported receiving death certificates with “COVID-19” listed as cause of death, even though the deceased did not have it.
Media have also ramped up scaremongering over the US’s supposedly “record-breaking” number of cases – but there is good reason to doubt those, too.
Countless labs have reported a 100 percent positivity rate, which means every single person tested was positive. Other labs had very high positivity rates. FOX 35 News found that testing sites like one local Centra Care reported that 83 people were tested and all tested positive. Then, NCF Diagnostics in Alachua reported 88 percent of tests were positive[…]
Orlando Health had a 98 percent positivity rate.
Such astronomical positive reports should immediately raise suspicion. Sure enough:
However, when FOX 35 News contacted the hospital, they confirmed errors in the report. Orlando Health’s positivity rate is only 9.4 percent, not 98 percent as in the report.
The report also showed that the Orlando Veteran’s Medical Center had a positivity rate of 76 percent. A spokesperson for the VA told FOX 35 News on Tuesday that this does not reflect their numbers and that the positivity rate for the center is actually 6 percent.
In other words, there’s good reason to suspect that actual rates of infection may be at most one-tenth of official reports.
Florida is currently experiencing a surge in COVID-19 cases, reporting the state’s daily reported cases have gone from about 2,000 a day a month ago to over 12,000[…]
While Florida has broken national records for jumps in cases, the state’s death toll is nowhere near the national record. When COVID-19 was ravaging New York three months ago, it recorded 799 deaths on April 9 and had a top seven-day average of 763 deaths on April 14. New York now has one of the nation’s lowest death rates per capita, recording 10 per day over the last week.
This is the side of the story that most media are trying to obscure from the public: death rates in the U.S. are steadily plunging. But that doesn’t make for a good, scary story like “record new cases”.
Except that now there’s good reason to suspect that that’s not even true.
And governments and the Legacy media wonder why nobody trusts them…
