[ April 23, 2024 ]
On January 23, 2020, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus declines to declare China virus outbreak as a global health emergency. But he has no qualms now quarantining the world.
The Chinese are profiting immensely from the fire sale, as though they were prepared for it (6,7,8,9,10). Also consider that China owns large portions of our media companies, and China virtually controls the World Health Organization (WHO). When this thing started, Trump offered aid to China in the form of virology experts and medicines, but China refused that aid, insisting that everything be done through the WHO. The WHO assisted in the hype by calling something that looked like a common cold, once it got out of China, a “pandemic.”
More on that here.

Evidence Shows Director General of World Health Organization Severely Overstated the Fatality Rate of the Coronavirus Leading to the Greatest Global Panic in History
The controversial Ethiopian politician and Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, claimed in a press conference in early March that the fatality rate for the coronavirus was many multiples that of the fatality rate of the common flu.
By:Joe Hoft, Gateway Pundit, March 17, 2020:
This egregiously false premise has led to the greatest panic in world history.
The Director General of the WHO spoke on March 3, 2020 and shared this related to the coronavirus:
While many people globally have built up immunity to seasonal flu strains, COVID-19 is a new virus to which no one has immunity. That means more people are susceptible to infection, and some will suffer severe disease.
Globally, about 3.4% of reported COVID-19 cases have died. By comparison, seasonal flu generally kills far fewer than 1% of those infected.
This statement led to the greatest panic in world history as the media all over the world shared and repeated that the coronavirus was many, many times more deadly than the common flu.
The problem is his statement is false. It was not accurate!
The Gateway Pundit reported yesterday, that the coronavirus fatality rate reported by the media was completely inaccurate and the actual rate is less than the current seasonal flu – the media was lying again. The false reporting of the coronavirus fatality rate of 3.4% in the media started with the statements made by the WHO in early March.
Here’s a summary of the analysis from yesterday proving the Director General’s statement was very misleading and materially false:
N/A – not available
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 1. The fatality rate of the coronavirus was based on current data available of known positive cases and known deaths.
Oftentimes estimates have to be made because data is just not yet available. The Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, used the fatality rate of coronavirus with known numbers and used this as his prediction of eventual mortality rate. This was a faulty assumption. Estimates usually involve obtaining information that is available and making estimates on what is not. We cannot tell the future but we can make educated guesses based on information available. This is what has been done with the coronavirus because this type of virus has apparently never been seen before.
2. Sometimes estimates are reasonable and sometimes they are wrong, and even way off.
The point is that whenever estimates are made of large unknown values they are always wrong because no one can tell the future. Sometimes estimates end up close and sometimes they are not and sometimes they are way off.
3. The current “estimate” for the coronavirus fatality rate according to the WHO is about 3.4%.
The estimate used most often is from the WHO based on the Director General’s comments. The WHO estimates the mortality rate of the coronavirus to be around 3.4%:
The World Health Organization (WHO) has estimated the mortality rate from Covid-19 is about 3.4%. That is higher than seasonal flu and is cause for concern – but even if it is correct, more than 96% of people who become infected with the coronavirus will recover.
4. The same rate for this year’s seasonal flu is 10% if you use the known data (but the media tells you it’s .1%).
As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier, according to CDC numbers, in the US in the 2019-2020 flu season, there were 222,552 confirmed cases of the flu from testing and an estimated 36 million flu cases in the United States. There were 22,000 estimated deaths from the flu (via the CDC).
Note that the number of deaths and confirmed cases (through testing) of the flu in the US are based on actual data. The number of individuals who contracted the flu is an estimate. There is no way to know who had the flu in the US because many cases are not severe and people do not have a test done to confirm they had the flu. They believe their symptoms are minor and go on with their normal lives thinking they had a cold or something similar. Because of this, the CDC estimates and they estimated 36 million people had the flu in this past flu season.
The rate of the number of individuals who died from the flu to the number of individuals who were estimated to have had the flu is .1% (22,552 / 36 million). This is an estimate and the amount used above by the Director General of the WHO.
However, the rate of individuals who died from the flu to the number of individuals who were confirmed to have had the flu is around 10% (22,000/ 222,552). This is based on actual data similar to the rate for the coronavirus above.
5. Actual results for the coronavirus are lower than the flu.
Based on the above numbers, the actual fatality rate for those who were confirmed to have had the coronavirus is 3.4%.
The actual mortality rates for those who were confirmed to have had the flu are around 10%.The actual data shows that the mortality rate for those who had the flu (10%) is almost twice as high than for those with the coronavirus (3.8%).
6. Current estimates between the flu and the coronavirus are not comparing ‘apples to apples’.
The fatality rate that is commonly referred to in the media for the coronavirus is 3.4% from the WHO. This number is based on confirmed cases of people with the coronavirus.
The flu fatality rate provided by the CDC of .1% includes an estimate of individuals who had the flu (36,000,000). This rate includes an estimate of all people with the flu, most who were not tested for the flu.
The fatality rate for the coronavirus does not include those who had the coronavirus but were not confirmed. This is why the flu fatality rate is .1% and the coronavirus fatality rate is 3.4%!
The two rates are like comparing apples to oranges. By doing so the coronavirus fatality rate is way overstated when compared to the flu and the WHO and the media has created a worldwide crisis and panic by reporting these rates simultaneously!
The coronavirus is not more fatal than the flu based on current data available. It is much less fatal than the flu based on current data.
7. Those most at risk from the coronavirus are the elderly and sick (similar to the flu).
Similar to the flu, those most at risk of dying from the coronavirus are the elderly and the sick. The average age for those who died from the coronavirus in Italy is 81 years old. This is consistent around the world. There have been no known fatalities for any children 10 and under.
The sick are also at a higher risk similar to the flu. Current data shows that if you have no pre-existing conditions, your fatality rate if you contract the coronavirus is .9% (and what proportion of these cases are the elderly).
In summary, President Trump was right when he said the WHO’s coronavirus fatality rate was much too high.
Evidence proves the coronavirus is not as deadly as what was reported by the WHO and is continually repeated in the media.
In fact, current data shows it is not as deadly as the flu. The elderly and the sick should be concerned and protected. Everyone else has little to worry about.
Again, don’t believe what the media is telling you. They are lying again.

This is probably the only time I will disagree with Pamela, if the death toll number on China was reported at 1.5 million would you think different? Italy has 12 pages of obituaries instead of 1.5.

China and Italy did nothing about it and lost precious time containing it. Allot of Italy’s population is old and they are the most susceptible to it and die. Communists don’t care people or their lives.

I understand that a lot of the Italian designer leather workshops are owned and staffed by Chinese now. And they travel back and forth to China. Direct flights from Milan to Wuhan. Add in the incompetent Italian bureaucrats and consider that Italy is where Fiat cars are made and I’m surprised the death rate is so low.

Well 5 doctors did attempt to alert the world and all 5 doctors have since vanished, courtesy of the Chinese government. Thus, There is a 100% death rate for speaking out against the Chinese government on pandemics. Where are the left when faced with such a threat? Such a threat to humanity must be eradicated!

Agreed. To figure the mortality rate for any given population, divide the number of known cases into the death count. Then convert your quotient into a percentage by moving the decimal two places to the right, round off to the nearest one-hundredth, and express that as a percentage.
Even for Italy, the second most infected country, you have only a 9% mortality rate.

Please dont reproduce, you cant even come online and have a civil discussion. I know someone that was infected and the dirty stuff going on with them. Lawyers and coming at them saying that they are not allowed to say what restaurants they’ve visted, where they work, etc. They said that their direct family will definitely get it so they wont test them so as to keep the reporting numbers low, essentially deflating the numbers which inflates the mortality numbers.

So far this season in the USA, the corona virus has infected more than 5,145 and killed at least 91 people. CDC estimates that so far this season there have been at least 36 million flu A and B illnesses, 370,000 hospitalizations and 22,000 deaths from non-corona flu.

The data presented in this article is wildly inaccurate. For example, the statistics for the flu are only accounting for people who actually went to the doctor and got tested for the flu. Many people don’t go to the doctor for a cold or flu because most people understand it will work itself out. Bad science in this article.

They’re comparing cases confirmed by testing with cases confirmed by testing. You can’t compare estimated cases of flu with confirmed cases of coronavirus since its not apples-apples. And we currently don’t have enough data to give accurate estimated total cases of coronavirus, but if we did you’d end up with a death rate very similar to what the current flu virus has.

I never trust anything associated with the UN, nothing but a disaster
Biggest is not facts and figures but containing the spread and all countries been slow to act.
All we had to do was to lock down China, but no flying people to every corner of the planet to spread the infection.
If we locked it down and stopped the spread we would not be seeing the mess the world is in. Never before seen most popular cities closed.
It’s all been about money and greed to put all into Asian countries. Most of us learnt from early child hood not to put all into one basket. Multiculturalism is a curse as we see our countries invaded by so many nationalities. Multiculturalism has helped to spread the CoronaVirus.
From the days of UN’s Lima Declaration to take wealth and put it into developing countries has caused so much harm. They should have left the sleeping dragon sleep and not wake it up to breath fire across the world. Not one country not touched by China.
Still think what we see today is part of Bible prophecy as many things of Bible prophecy is before us and faster all seems to happen
