Overview
- According to data from the best-studied countries such as South Korea and Iceland and the cruise ship Diamond Princess, the overall lethality rate of Covid19 is in the per mille range and thus in the range of a severe influenza (flu) epidemic.
- A French study came to the conclusion that the lethality of Covid19 does not differ significantly from known coronaviruses studied in a hospital. A study published in Nature Medicine has come to a similar conclusion even for the Chinese city of Wuhan.
- 50% to 80% of test-positive persons remain completely symptom-free, over 90% of test-positive persons develop at most mild or moderate symptoms. It is therefore not resonable to speak of a fundamental „lack of immunity“ in the population.
- The median age of the deceased in most countries (including Italy) is over 80 years and only about 1% of the deceased had no serious previous illnesses. The age and risk profile of deaths thus essentially corresponds to normal mortality.
- Many media reports of young and healthy people dying from Covid19 have proven to be false upon closer inspection. Many of these people either did not die from Covid19 or they in fact had serious preconditions (such as undiagnosed leukaemia).
- In the US and most European countries, overall mortality remains within the range of a severe flu season. Normal overall mortality in the US is about 8000 people per day, in Germany it is about 2600 people per day, and in Italy it is about 1800 people per day.
- Strongly increased death rates, as in northern Italy, can be influenced by additional risk factors such as very high air pollution and legionella contamination, as well as a collapse in the care of the elderly and sick due to mass panic and lockdown.
- In countries such as Italy and Spain, and to some extent Great Britain and the US, an overload of the health care system, notably by the flu, is not unusual. In addition, up to 15% of doctors and nurses are currently in quarantine, even if they develop no symptoms.
- An important distinction concerns the question of whether people die only with or indeed from coronaviruses. Autopsies show that in many cases the previous illnesses were an important or decisive factor, but the official figures usually do not reflect this.
- Thus in order to assess the danger of the disease, the key indicator is not the often mentioned number of test-positive persons and deceased, but the number of persons who actually and unexpectedly fell ill with or died of pneumonia.
- The often shown exponential curves of „corona cases“ are misleading, since the number of tests also increases exponentially. In most countries, the ratio of positive tests to total tests either remains constant between 5% to 15% or increases only very slowly.
- Countries without lockdowns and contact bans, such as Japan, South Korea and Sweden, have not experienced a more negative course of events than other countries. This may call into question the effectiveness of such far-reaching measures.
- According to leading lung specialists, invasive ventilation of Covid19 patients is often counterproductive and causes additional damage to the lungs. The invasive ventilation of Covid19 is partly done out of fear of spreading the virus through aerosols.
- Contrary to original assumptions, the WHO determined at the end of March that there is no evidence of aerosol dispersal of the virus. A leading German virologist also found no aerosol and no smear infections in a pilot study.
- Many clinics in the Europe and the US have been lacking patients and some have had to introduce short-time work. Numerous operations and therapies were cancelled, even emergency patients sometimes stay at home out of fear, which may lead to extra deaths.
- Several media have been caught trying to dramatize the situation in clinics, sometimes even with manipulative pictures and videos. In general, many media outlets do not question even doubtful official statements and figures.
- The virus test kits used internationally are prone to errors: earlier studies have shown that even normal corona viruses can give a false positive result. Moreover, the virus test currently in use has not been clinically validated due to time pressure.
- Numerous internationally renowned experts from the fields of virology, immunology and epidemiology consider the measures taken to be counterproductive and recommend a rapid natural immunisation of the general population while protecting risk groups.
- The number of people suffering from unemployment, psychological problems and domestic violence as a result of the measures taken has exploded in the US and worldwide. Several experts believe that the measures will claim more lives than the virus itself.
- NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden warned that the corona crisis is used for the massive and permanent expansion of global surveillance. The renowned virologist Pablo Goldschmidt spoke of a „global media terror“ and „totalitarian measures“. Leading British virologist Professor John Oxford spoke of a „media epidemic“.
