COVID-19: Beatmung – und dann?
https://www.doccheck.com/de/detail/articles/26271-covid-19-beatmung-und-dann
Leading lung specialists say invasive ventilation of Covid19 patients causes additional damage to the lungs.
This article in January, before COVID-19 scare, was already warning about a hospital crisis for this year’s flu wave.
Covid-19: four fifths of cases are asymptomatic, China figures indicate:
https://www.bmj.com/content/369/bmj.m1375
British epidemiologist Tom Jefferson tells the BMJ, “The sample [evidence from China] is small, and more data will become available. Also, it’s not clear exactly how these cases were identified. But let’s just say they are generalisable. And even if they are 10% out, then this suggests the virus is everywhere. If—and I stress, if—the results are representative, then we have to ask, ‘What the hell are we locking down for?”
Tom Jefferson, is an epidemiologist at the Cochrane Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) Group and writes for thebmjopinion.
School closure and management practices during coronavirus outbreaks including COVID-19: a rapid systematic review:
https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanchi/article/PIIS2352-4642(20)30095-X/fulltext
Summary from BBC News:
- While school closures help during influenza outbreaks, the same may not apply to coronavirus
- Data from the Sars outbreak (in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Singapore) suggest that school closures did not contribute to the control of the epidemic
- Recent modelling studies of Covid-19 predict that school closures alone would prevent only 2%-4% of deaths, many fewer than other social distancing interventions

COVID-19 Models Misrepresent Reality
According to Ned Nikolov, Ph.D. a physical scientist in Colorado, USA, the COVID-19 models misrepresent reality.
Comparing #COVID19 Projections (https://covid19.healthdata.org/projections) with reported data by Covid Tracking (https://covidtracking.com/data/) for Apr 5:
- Overestimation of hospitalizations: 8 times
- Overestimation of of ICU beds needed: 6.4 times
- Overestimation of ventilators needed: 40.5 times
These are the types of “projections” that drive the #COVID19 hysteria. The level of exaggeration by these so-called models is staggering. This is also what JUNK science looks like.
Dr. Fauci’s recommendations for lockdown are based on such faulty models. It’s truly a disgrace!

As Parliament keeps the whole population under house arrest, there are very few voices of dissent
CANCER deaths caused by the indirect effects of Covid-19 on the NHS will outstrip the number predicted to die from the virus, experts have warned.

It seems that the British government’s assumption that COVID-19 would infect 80 percent of the population was borrowed from a 2015 flu pandemic planning report.

Royal College of Emergency Medicine says workforce is not growing fast enough to keep pace with rising numbers of patients.

According Peter Hitches, the government has projected that 150,000 people may die as a result of the lockdowns. This is at around 10m20s in the talkRADIO interview.
Minnesota State Senator says Department of Health guidelines instruct doctors to list Covid19 as cause of death, without being tested.
Lethality of COVID-19 has been overestimated and is likely to be in the range between normal and pandemic influenza.
