Where am I going with this?
As I said, if people don't want it, that's fine. Don't spout made up "facts" with no data to back them
you mean like making schit up about lower Covid rates and asian mask wearers?
Yep, totally made up
this study out of Japan.
And
this article out of Taiwan
And
this one comparing South Korea to Europe.
The stuff I've made up has been really prolifically published, hasn't it?
While you are at it, please explain the John Hopkins, peer-reviewed and published study comparing US death rates from various causes with previous years' death rates from those causes. While you are at it please explain why it was pulled and many of the studies they based their study on were suddenly very hard to find. Or not, because if it does not turn you around you will know absolutely how badly you have been taken.
That article was NOT a peer reviewed study. It was published in the John's Hopkins STUDENT newspaper. It was retracted because it had factual inaccuracy and they saw it was being swallowed up by folks like you grasping for any evidence to support your conspiracy narrative.
Did you research it at all, or just hear through the conspiracy-nut hotline that "a study shows deaths are the same as last year!!"
It makes sense that deaths from other causes would go down because we know that Covid more severely affects those with pre-existing conditions. Someone who would have died of heart failure gets covid, dies sooner than they would have, and they're a covid death rather than heart failure. There's no perfect way to tally the numbers when there are multiple contributing factors, but I think you and I have already been through that in detail in another thread.
