CHICAGO NOW – Dennis Byrne writes Friday about the ongoing criticism of COVID-19 data – and how it has devastated the US economy and overall mood. He points to comments Dr. Ngozi Ezike, an internist and pediatrician serving as the director of the Illinois Department of Public Health, made a few months ago when she tried to clarify the distinction between dying with or from Covid-19.
She also answered a question about how many people died from Covid-19 who did not have another underlying condition. She said 90 percent of the deaths attributed to Covid-19 actually died with an underlying condition. The implication in the second video (below) is that only five percent of the Covid-19 deaths are due to the disease alone, and not from an underlying condition.
This shoots to hell the premise for the nation-wide shutdowns imposed by various governors and mayors. If the disease is not as fatal as advertised, how do you justify jailing people in their homes, killing millions of jobs, wrecking the education of more millions, ruining the quality of life for so many more and so forth?
To justify this bulldozing of our civil rights, martial law proponents have been trying to "clarify" Ezike's already clear definitions. Like trying to wash your car with hogwash.
