    By all means, keep your guns, with the solace that knowing that if anyone is killed with it,  there is an 83% chance that it will be you.

    And, just out of curiosity...how did you enjoy having  the smallpox, polio, rubella, meningitis, diptheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis, varicella,  and pneumococcal diseases that most kids get vaccinated for?    

    I mean honestly if you insist on taking yourself out, I know a guy that can help:

    Who do you teach math to?  And are you doing it on Zoom?   But, I do see your teaching method.

    You know Icecube's story isn't going to end well. Now that he's done this, he'll probably be the next to get whacked by the Clintons. He obviously knows too much.

    Data?

    I see no reason to bring Pompeo into this discussion.

    I can just use the Data of one- my wife's hospital, where she sees see occupied beds, and it's down- way down...

    Not to worry. Trumpy is ordering CDC to say that churches can now safely open. Right from the highest Scientologist I think.?

    Well, the Catholic Churches SW Ohio, Northern Kentucky will open soon. Every third row, please wear a mask if you can.  The Bishop of Minneapolis did have a point about defying the governor- no more than 10 people in a Cathedral that seats 2,000? Please.

    I don't believe it is mandated but maybe Gorka will prove me wrong.  However it is a fact that hospitals receive more money (39k) from insurances if a "covid" patient is put on a respirator. I believe they only receive something like 13k normally for patients on respirators. 

    Source:  my girlfriend who is a respiration therapist at a big hospital in Columbus. 

    I wonder where that reimbursement difference is coming from. You'd have to work in billing, not respiratory therapy to get that info....  Belief isn't fact.

    The reimbursement difference is coming from insurance companies such as Medicare and medicaid. Fact is in respiration therapy the responsibility is putting the patients on respirators and putting in the tubes and such.  While doing so respiration therapists are privy to what illnesses patients have. Tragically when patients pass the respiration therapists take out the tubes and the respirator and are privy to cause of death which as of right now when there is any death due to respiratory reasons it is being attributed to COVID19. 

    "Belief isn't fact" but what I'm saying when it comes to this hospital it is an actual fact not a belief.

    Edit taken from factcheck.org

    "It is true, however, that the government will pay more to hospitals for COVID-19 cases in two senses: By paying an additional 20% on top of traditional Medicare rates for COVID-19 patients during the public health emergency, and by reimbursing hospitals for treating the uninsured patients with treating the uninsured patients with the disease (at that enhanced Medicare rate)."

    Edit

    Also if you look at the number of flu,  cold, pneumonia, deaths after this policy was put into effect they have dramatically decreased compared to "normal" statistics from previous years. 

    Maybe you could ask your girlfriend what happens to an MD who puts a person on the respirator with a false claim of coronavirus.

    That is called fraud and it can get your license to practice yanked, let alone felony charges. Better have a test that proves it to do it.

    That is what those who claim this happens fail to say and it is also why it is unlikely on a large scale. Not all of them are the Donald you know.

    Some actually have moral fiber.

    Believe what you want. I know a very big well respected hospital in Columbus is attributing any kinds deaths due to respiratory complications as COVID19. Any fluid on the lungs would be any "positive test" they need as of right now.

    "Belief isn't fact"

    So you're guessing about reimbursement. Show me some numbers. BTW, nosing around looking for "cause of death" is a HIPPA violation, and most hospitals take an extremely dim view of that, to the extent "you're fired" if they find out. .

    Actually- according to my "Deep State" LOL info- "The Boss" would like nothing better than to shut the Poli Board down- for exactly that reason. It's no longer a forum for open discussion- it's all a one sided rant. Steve runs the show over there- so I let them spew. My Mod powers aren't high enough to eliminate an entire Forum- though I'd love to put the MAGAs on notice- it's hanging on by a thread- literally. 

    If I get a second close this thread-  done deal.
