Is the COVID Surge More Fake News?
By Brian C.Joondeph, MD, July 2, 2020

�The coronavirus surge is real, and it�s everywhere� says Axios and most of the DNC media.

Time to panic. They pile on, �The coronavirus pandemic is getting dramatically worse in almost every corner of the U.S.�

We are told new cases are rising by double-digit percentages, including: �The number of people hospitalized with coronavirus.� Hospitalized with or from coronavirus? Is this really a surge or simply fear-mongering fake news?

Texas features prominently in the surge scare. Coincidently Texas is a red state that if flipped to blue would prevent a Republican from ever winning the White House for the foreseeable future. Everything is bigger in Texas, including the Chinese coronavirus surge.

A Texas hospital CEO lets the fake news cat out of the bag.

Quote
Health officials in Texas are logging every single COVID-19-positive hospital patient in the state as a COVID-19 hospitalization, even if the patients themselves are admitted seeking treatment for something other than the coronavirus.

Most hospitals require a COVID test before elective surgery. This means that patients coming to the hospital for a non-COVID reason are tested for COVID, and if positive are being counted as a �COVID hospitalization.� If a patient goes to the hospital for a new hip or cataract surgery, and happens to test positive for COVID, they are counted as a COVID hospitalization.

Just like inflated death counts, there is a big difference between dying or being hospitalized due to coronavirus or with coronavirus. George Floyd tested positive for COVID but no one is attributing his death in Minneapolis to COVID. Yet that is how hospitalizations are being counted, leading to this so-called surge in cases.

This surge hit the news about two weeks ago, after the BLM protests and riots peaked and agitators were starting to be arrested. Is this the latest chapter in the ongoing saga to beat on Trump and interfere in the upcoming presidential election?

Yes, it is. I suspect some labs are overamplifying ther samples to create more "positives." I've written to DSHS asking some questions about how mnay times the manufactured DNA is amplifeid and if there is a state-wide standard. Funny how Texas had a 4% positivity rate andit suddenly shot up to 14%. Notice how they fail to define what a "case" is. I believe they include all the contacts of a person who tests positive as "cases.: You can be sure they are being tracked down because of that suspicious contact tracing contract.

The Constitution matters, at least it should.

There are 13.307 hospital beds available in Texas and 1203 ICU beds as of today. Yet I saw a news report on OAN (while visiting in San Antonio) that said Texas hospitals are at capacity. Uteerly false and unquestioned or investigated by this "News" station. The DSHS webstie does not show any of the regions at capacity. All areas have beds available as well as ICU beds.

The Constitution matters, at least it should.

The most vulnerable are protected, hospitals are not overrun and deaths are not increasing.

Why the panic if our young and healthy build antibodies for the flu? This protects us all...like a vaccine, only better.

Yes, it is fake news.

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

You know the President wants to say this ... he always stops just short of using the words "herd immunity". I think if he did at least 60 percent of the US would stand and cheer.
