Don Jr. dismisses coronavirus deaths: ‘The number is almost nothing’

Roughly 1,000 Americans died from Covid-19 on the day the president’s son appeared on Fox News to downplay the U.S. death toll.

Donald Trump Jr., the president’s eldest son, falsely claimed on Thursday that the number of Americans dying from the coronavirus amounts to “almost nothing.”
More than 8.9 million people in the United States have been infected with Covid-19, according to the latest data from Johns Hopkins University, resulting in more than 228,000 deaths. The U.S. tallied a single-day record of more than 83,000 coronavirus cases last Friday and reported a new daily peak of more than 88,000 cases on Thursday. Deaths, an indicator that typically lags behind the number of cases, have also been on the rise.
Deaths have indeed declined relative to last spring, in part because doctors have learned to manage the disease better and because of drugs that have proven to be helpful in combating it. Nursing homes, where thousands of Americans have died from the coronavirus, have also done a better job of slowing infection, although they face challenges protecting their highly vulnerable residents as Covid-19 continues to spread across the country.






But the deaths are not “almost nothing” — and they are rising. Roughly 1,000 Americans died from the disease on Thursday, as Trump Jr. appeared on Fox News host Laura Ingraham’s show to downplay the U.S. death toll. And among those who survive the coronavirus, many have long-term damage to vital organs and lingering chronic symptoms.
“The reality is this: If you look, I put it up on my Instagram a couple days ago, because I went through the CDC data, because I kept hearing about new infections,” Trump Jr. said. “But I was like, ‘Well, why aren’t they talking about deaths?’ Oh, oh, because the number is almost nothing. Because we’ve gotten control of this, and we understand how it works.”
Those remarks resemble other misleading or outright untrue rhetoric put forth in recent days by President Donald Trump, who has been increasingly dismissive of the pandemic’s threat ahead of Election Day. “More Testing equals more Cases. We have best testing. Deaths WAY DOWN,” he tweeted on Friday morning.
Trump has repeatedly said the U.S. is “rounding the turn” in its fight against Covid-19 — an assertion contradicted by his own White House task coronavirus task force.
According to notes of a private task force call with governors on Friday, task force coordinator Deborah Birx acknowledged the severity of the spread, particularly in the northern U.S. She said 1,200 counties — one-third of the country — qualify as “hot spots.” In only one state are cases falling, and in only seven are hospitalizations decreasing.
She told the governors that reaching a plateau — stabilizing the virus, not even bringing it down — will take “every single person in your states moving forward with” wearing masks, maintaining social distance, avoiding gatherings, and handwashing.
The administration’s coronavirus testing czar also expressed concern this week about the trajectory of the pandemic, pointing to the growing number of deaths to correct the president. “The cases are actually going up. And we know that, too, because hospitalizations are going up,” Adm. Brett Giroir told NBC’s “Today” show on Wednesday, adding: “We do know that deaths are increasing, unfortunately.”
Public health experts predict an even greater death toll throughout the fall and winter months, as the U.S. coronavirus outbreak collides with the annual flu season. “If things do not change, if they continue on the course we’re on, there’s going to be a whole lot of pain in this country with regard to additional cases and hospitalizations and deaths,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, told CNBC on Wednesday.

I wonder how sad it must be to insist that there is no virus while also saying there is a virus but it's not a big problem and having to prove your point by showing how much the virus is increasing in Ontario.

"Why Ontario hospitals are full to bursting, despite few COVID-19 patients

Acute care wards of many major hospitals running above 95% occupancy, even before flu season hits


...The latest province-wide figures show 350 patients in hospital with confirmed cases of COVID-19. Of those, 72 are in intensive care.

Although those numbers remain well below the spring peaks, Dale is frustrated by social media commenters who use Ontario's hospitalization statistics to cast doubt on the severity of the pandemic and the need for public health restrictions.

The hospitals are already so full that any significant increase in patients with COVID-19 "completely destabilizes all the other activity that hospitals need to be doing," Dale said.

Wrong thread but we posted numbers for Florida in US thread
Nowhere near capacity

The worst (poorest) neighbourhoods capped about 50%
Many hospitals were empty

State of Florida has all their numbers posted online should you care to check
Most hospitals are even accepting walk ins and elective surgeries as we speak

Covid is a hoax and I am puzzled as to why so many people are so terrified at this point
Even Ford is getting ready to put his big boy pants back on

It's baffling to me we're now 11 months into the pandemic and the facts regarding the virus have been repeated billions of times, some very few "Stable Genius's" need to be reminded daily of the basic understanding of the virus with them repeating the same non factual facts and the asking the same questions the following day. It makes me wonder how these "Stable Genius's" live their daily lives :ROFLMAO:

Interesting that you want to use state wide averages and ignore what is actually happening at many hospitals.

You also seem not to comprehend that having a quarter of beds filled with covid cases means there's no longer room for other patients. 70% of their ICU's being taken by covid patients (when common sense can easily reduce those numbers) leaves little room for car accidents and other diseases. Ontario plans/funds for hospitals to max out at 85% capacity leaving room for emergencies. Some math for you, 85+25=? How about 85%+70%?
