CDC Updates COVID Death Numbers, Showing Less than 10,000 People Have Died from Virus Alone

Big, huge news came out of the CDC recently — except it came in the form of a quiet update. If the CDC had made this quiet announcement under any other administration, particularly a Democrat one, this would have been the biggest story of the week. Instead no mainstream media has reported on this update from the CDC—at all.

According to the CDC’s latest numbers, only six percent of COVID deaths can be attributed to the disease alone. In the other 94 percent of cases, there were other major contributors to the person’s death.

That’s enormous. You hear about comorbidities all the time, but it turns out the coronavirus is mostly only killing people who were already very sick and dying. It’s still sad, but it’s not exactly the deadly pandemic we were promised.

Before we go into full celebration, we should talk more deeply about what all of this really means. According to researchers at John Hopkins, there have been 190,000 coronavirus deaths in the U.S. this year. Using the new CDC information, that means only around 9,600 of those deaths were strictly from the virus. The other 180,000 or so all had comorbidities that contributed to their deaths. The top comorbidities range from blood clots to unintentional injuries.

Wait, what? Unintentional injuries? So the CDC is confirming that if a person was swimming in the ocean, got bit by a shark, tested positive for COVID upon their death, regardless of symptoms, they were being listed as dying from coronavirus.

When we take out unintentional injuries and the other comorbidities, we can see that this virus is dramatically less deadly than other viruses, including the flu. We don’t shut the country down, force the shuttering of every business in America, kill 30 million jobs and shut down schools for the flu every year so why are we doing it for COVID?

 

We should probably pump the brakes for a minute. Nuance is important. In this case, the most important nuance to understand is that some of the comorbidities can be caused by COVID itself. If you’re healthy, get the coronavirus and then get pneumonia and die, you’ll have COVID and pneumonia listed on the death certificate. That means that the real death toll from coronavirus is likely higher than 9,600, but it’s definitely lower than 190,000.

How do we sort it all out? The easiest way is to look at historic data. According to the CDC, we’re 10 percent above the expected death toll for the year. That comes to about 180,000 excess deaths so far in 2020. That lines up closely with the coronavirus total, and it exposes an obvious flaw. There is absolutely no way that 100 percent of all excess deaths are coming from one disease. That has never happened before in history, so we know we’re overcounting Wu Flu fatalities.

Another number we can compare is 2019 statistics. If we look at death totals for 2019 up through the end of August, we find that there were over 1.8 million deaths. The 2020 total through the end of August is also just over 1.8 million. In fact, so far, there have been 30,000 fewer deaths than at the same point in 2019. If this pandemic is so deadly, then why isn’t it showing up in these statistics?

Here’s the real truth. You’re going to have to make up your own mind. Is coronavirus super deadly? Has it impacted people you care about? Which statistics do you find most compelling? You’re an intelligent, independent person. You can decide what to believe, but you can walk away from this with one final question to ponder. Why is this the first time you’ve heard that 2019 was deadlier than 2020?

  1. It’s all about political expediency and greed; medical facilities, clinics, hospitals, etal benefitted monetarily by falsifying records contending that folks testing positive for COVID-19 but actually died from comorbidities or underlying conditions, nonetheless did so to collect the Federal funds available to further treat the virus. Basically, they defrauded the taxpayers to receive money they wouldn’t otherwise be entitled to. Coupled with those having an interest in developing a vaccine and corrupt public officials, they collectively tried to destroy the country and demonize the Trump administration.

      1. Git that right. And they predicted a 5 to 7 % death rate and the cdc worked hard to get to that number. So what tge heck happen to science?

        Remember a couple months back when all the democrat dictator govetnors were screaming they were making decisions based on the science! What science? There is nothing but fake numbers and bs science.

    1. It also created the most amount of federal money thrown at the problem so it is the first time there was money to be made on vaccines. Historically the push for the flu shot has been as affective as screaming in the wind. That is why it persists. But, most importantly, this is the first time that we allowed the WHO, one of the global government agencies, under mostly chinese management, to call the shots – and the global govenors (democrat socialists persuasion) are power drunk on that stage. Nothing they have done so far has led to a possible take over of the Trump Admin but this has the most potential and they do NOT have a platform with out it. EXPOSE THE ‘RONA AND CLEAN UP THE ELECTION!!!

    1. lets see obama pays for tgd development of the cobid virus, the dictator democrats givernors quickly shut down the otherwise great economy immediately on the story the virus hits the USA, then the dictator governors throw covid patients into nursing home to kill a bunch of people, then as we all start reacting to the dictstor democrats they start paying rioters $99 a day to riot.

      Kind of all planned out to screw over trump for the election.

      So the democrats will destroy our lifes to win an election.

      Now who is stupid enough to vote for the democrats?

  2. Why am I not surprized at this information? I’ve been saying it from the start, also that if this is how God chooses to call me home, what am I going to do to change it? So be it! Let the truth ring ever louder!

  3. This is all about trying to defeat Donald Tump, pure and simple. If The American people and Especially Christians, do not wake up and go to the voting booths vote their Christian beliefs, this great nation will become the next Venezuela. Pray hard, Christians!

    1. I have always been a non-believer. I think the “pandemic” is a very successful plan of the Democratic party. They don’t care how many lives have been ruined. They don’t care how many children are going uneducated. They care about one thing – getting Donald Trump out of the White House. I pray every day that does not happen.

      1. Praying for the same thing, but also for justice. These people need to pay dearly for what they have done to innocent people!!

      2. They are also wanting to find out how well we do in submission to their orders. I feel sad and disgusted when I drive down the streets of town and see people walking around in their masks. Reminds me of an old old movie that I had seen as a child. I refuse to wear a mask, driving, walking, or visiting.

        1. Youth need to wear a mask! Even if this was a simple flu running rampant among our population! You are not conceding to any political position, or losing face, -oops , an oxymoron, Ha! You are just doing your part to make sure you are not spreading any germ! Grow up!

      3. I suspected from the first moment that it is a huge diversion of WHO and Democrats! Seeing the insistence with which CNN exposes daily “the increase of the number of deaths because of pandemie ” my suspicions became reality! They believe that we are stupid people, it could be possible that a part of people is stupid, but not all of us! A very, very large part of Americans are very smart people !

  4. PLANDEMIC from day one. The monsters behind this worldwide disaster must be exposed and destroyed…every one of them.

    1. look no further then Barack Hussain Obama. He paid for the development and release of covid. He planned it after his attempt to bring ebola to America.

  5. If I were a betting man then Two to one the person that was counting the deaths was a Socialistic democrat. They inflate numbers to push their agenda of total socialism Bull Crap.

  6. Do you actually know anyone, who has contacted Covid ? Yeah, me neither. I wear a mask when I go in Kroger. ONLY !! I do that for me, and everyone I encounter. I dont want to be part of the problem. The CDC is like the mainstream media, a very crooked socialist/communist, left wing tool. Came clean, cause they were losing credibility, by the ton !!!

  7. Your article confirms my suspicion from the beginning! Numbers vastly inflated. Many of the deaths are folks 65 and older and they probably were sick before they got COVID. So thats a huge number right there. Also the numbers were slowly reported and quietly reported on the ages of people that died with COVID. Again most of the people dying from the virus were older and already sick( 65 and over-not the young). One of the crucial points right from the beginning is most people that get the virus just get sick and most of the cases under 65 are mild. The reaction from the start has been irresponsible!!!!! This is NOT the spanish flu that claimed one of two people that contracted it. 1000% political-Shameful!!!!

  8. I think that this paid for by the demo-communist party thru the obama mis managed administration, is a piggy backing flu strain, if you are sick with something all ready, then this flu strain targets that person, and in some circumstances hits a , weak but non-chronic ill person. And it was designed to rid the world or is a more harsher term , CULL THE HERD. Less sick people to be under the government care in health care cost $$$, the better for the government bank account. There is a lot of people at the TABLE here and if you are at that table, and the person on both sides of you falls over death, there is just more food for you. And so very few of your dis-honest dispecticable government elected officials have contracted this flu strain, because there just might already be a vaccine out and they took it at the beginning, and then like one did, invited everyone to come to china town in san francisco. it is a communist conspiracy world wide, to decimate the population of the world, and the control them, less people easier to control, So here in the USA, VOTE OUT THE BLUES in 2020, VOTE RED in 2020. And then go hunt the one down that did this, THE BLUES

  9. It’s all a political ploy by the communist democrat party to change the outcome of this next election. They know they’re done and are going to try anything and everything to retain their power and dirty money. They’ve now gone so far as to threaten Americans that if sleepy joe does not win by landslide there will be war in the streets of America. REALLY? Bring it on boys and girls. The only war these indoctrinated fools know is contained on a video game. In real life, when they see REAL human body parts go flying by and the unforgettable SMELL of death, they will run back to mommie’s basement and play “Call of Duty”!

  10. Only 6% of total deaths are caused by corona virus, but 94% are dead by other diseases. All are said the cause of
    deaths related to corona virus to make money for doctors, hospitals, insurance companies.

  11. Reading these comments, it’s good to know that me & my friends are not lunatics! WE have been in agreeance all through this “PLANdemic”. While the virus IS real – the rest of it is the hoax. All the fearmongering by the “bought & paid for media” is the sole source for the confusion – if THEY had any balls at all – they would have taken the required sourcing memos, and researched from independent sources and PRINT THE TRUTH…news media has ceased to be news reporters and strictly a mouthy puppet for the agenda hands lining the pockets of the corrupt politicians. Slap yourselves across the face because pats on the back belong REAL news reporters.

    The TRUTH is out there – it’s just buried the SOROS aligned bullshit.

  12. This information is hardly surprising and it should never have been so. A true pandemic would have been much more virulent, much deadlier than Covid 19 ever came close to becoming. Bad science coupled with corrupt politics make for strange but convenient yet effective bedfellows. My main concern is how can we ever trust the CDC again? We already know the answer to the trustability of the Democrats.

  13. Lmao,I can’t believe that the people of this ever listened to these politicians and supposedly medical professionals to begin with,it has been able monetary gain and political status and influence,think about it people,money is the root of all Evil right along with political power,here I always thought that the American people had intelligent and could see through the Arrogance of people who try to gain popularity through lies and deception,People in this country have lost touch with reality for the past 60 years and it was documented 60 years ago that it would come to this and now here it is.if I said that the earth was two broken half s people wouldn’t even look to see if it actually was.theyd swollow it hook,line and sinker,Its no wonder that the rest of the world looks down their noses at the blooming idiots in this country,and I’m ashamed to be any part of this Great Country simply because they are right about the people of this country,people of this country can not think for themselves they need the government to think for them by the idiots that are put into this government to do exactly that,Control The Thinking Of The People here,take away the self thinking and self doing

  14. I Hope All the news stations get this report and put it out there for everyone to read.

    Truth be told let’s get it out there.

    1. It was reported on Fox earlier this week! Don’t hold your breath waiting for the “fake news” to report it. They
      are as corrupt as Dr. Fauci!!!!

  15. Ironically the CDC must have learned from their cousins in the MSM. Scream the lie at the top of your lungs and quietly speak about the truth (retraction). As we have been saying for months – look around you – we can only really talk about what we know. I don’t know what is going on in NYC or anywhere else except where I live. I have found the media cannot be trusted to report the truth so we are on our own. I see the media posting maps of COVID – “Hot Spots” – They have the entire state of Florida covered in red – very bad. Well I live in Florida and I know of 1 person in my area who has tested positive. There are over a million people in our county. This person had to be tested to go back to work. He was first given the swab in the nose test – which came back positive. He was then given a bloodwork test that came back negative. So they deemed him positive and he was pout on quarantine – hardly scientific – when 2 tests for the same thing bring 2 different results – more tests are indicated as one of your results is obviously wrong. Seems to me they either went with the result they wanted to get or they “assumed” – and we all know what to assume does. I have friends and family all over the state. I do have a niece that contracted COVID-19. She is nurse at a hospital. She was sick for a few days and recovered. Now I hear all the talk about long term affects. Really – so NOW they know what the long term affects of a disease they know so little about are? Pure fear mongering but WHY??

  16. We the people in this country cannot let the Democratic Party win this election or less the USA becomes a socialist/ communist country. This country/ our forefathers founded this great nation on democracy/constitution for which our rights/freedoms are guaranteed – we cannot let the radical insane left side ideologies take our great country away from the people. We must uphold the Constitution & the rights/freedoms it provides. Freedom isn’t free – ask a soldier- veteran – policeman – a everyday person who lives/believes/ works hard to make a living & keeps this dream alive & a reality. We the people cannot let our country fall/fail to anyone/anything that does not stand for democracy & God – May he bless this great country we call America- our home & May he shed his grace upon the Americans who strive to keep her land of the free & home BECAUSE of the brave

  17. Do I believe there is a disease? Yes I do because I personally know a family that had it….HOWEVER….I also believe with all my being, like the earlier comment stated, this is..A PLANDEMIC!!! All for the sake of the SICK mindless democrats!!! I also believe that if they do not let the drug Hydroxychloriquine 200mg (1 tablet twice a week) along with Rocephin and Zinc be given to the people that has this sickness, when a person passes away NEEDLESSLY, they will have to answer to GOD for what they have done!! In my eyes, that is MURDER!!! ALso, if it were me, I would file a Law Suite on them so fast it would make their head spin off their Num-Skull Shoulders!
    The above listed medications are A KNOWN REGIMEN THAT WORKS as stated by NUMEROUS Dr’s who are currently VERY SUCCESSFULLY treating people of which are feeling better within 3-4 hours and within 24 hours…MUCH MUCH BETTER!!! Now tell me WHY would anyone in their RIGHT mind not want this for the people?!!! Oh, I forgot…We are talking about DEMOCRATS!!! They do not have a RIght Mind! With all put aside, these DR’s have put out numerous videos on YouTube & FB with everyone of them being removed by YouTube and FB. SHAME on you…YouTube and FB!!!!!!! These Dr’s BEG for anyone to come to their offices and go through their records and just see what is working. But very apparently, No One cares to take a look at what works because, 1 thing…it has been around for years & CHEAP!!! Please Go Take a Look at What REALLY WORKS!!!

    1. My daughter and son-in law live out side Denali National park in Alaska. They were both exposed to covid-19 early in the year. They are both in their mid 50’s and 60’s and lucky for them in excellent health. They got it from a doctor in Fairbanks my son-in-law was seeing for a hip replacement. They both had mild cold/flu symptoms and never thought anything about it until the health dept called to inform them that they had been exposed and to shelter in place unless it got a whole lot worse. By the time the health dept. called they were almost over it. They said it lasted about a week. They were both tested before my son-in laws surgery and found to have the antibodies. All the people exposed and the doctor survived. Counting the Doctor 17 in all. I agree Theresa To withhold any treatment is a crime and should be laid at the feet of the DNC. They couldn’t remove Trump by accursing him of every crime they could think up so as a last resort a made for politics’ Pandemic which has never occurred in this nation or the world in my 77 years. When my dad had polio they quarantined my family not the whole nation/world. At the time my dad had polio they didn’t even know what caused it let alone how to treat it. He also survived. How do we as a nation go forward with these kind of crimes being committed against the people of this nation by the people we elect who violate their very oath of office with no responsibility.

  18. Follow the money!!! Covid-19 victims = $40,000 added to hospital treatment. Hydrocloriquin very low cost … New drugs make pharma billions … Fauci millions. What ever circumstances are being portrayed someone is making a lot of money for it. Sad. … Lives should be what is important. If sick … Not be kept from cures or relief because of money. People not be kept from work because of the”fear” propogated so they can feed big pharma pockets and liberal agendas pockets.

  19. I agree wholeheartedly with you all I also feel the same way as all of you believe.
    I wish that everyone would what is eight by just ditching the masks and get on with real life again.

  20. Well, I believed everything in this article. Thought it was all hype. However, my family in Chicago all got Covid. My son, his wife, his 10-year-old son, and his 23-year-old son. The 23-year-old is now in the hospital on a Covid floor and was given Remdesivar. He was pretty sick with a fever of 104.7, terrible coughing, diarrhea, loss of appetite, etc. He is basically a healthy young man, working and going to college. He is getting better, but some of his markers are high and they are watching for PE. I do not feel like it is all hype.

  21. Liberalism is the oldest con game in the book….it is also a proxy for socialism and or any kind of dictatorship they wanna refer to themselves as : oligarchy, utopia, an undemocratic socialism, communists or what ever….. but the tactics and methods are collectively inclusive, as well as progressive the more we allow it to continue.
    These liberals are not to be taken lightly simply because being habitual liars is part of their tactics and programming and we should not take them lightly as we remove them.
    TRUMP 2020 !!!

  22. How is the regular flu counted? Are shark bites with positive testing for flu listed as death by flu? This may not be as dramatic as it appears. I know “alcohol related deaths” are done this way. Any alcohol in the blood, no matter how minute, and a crash is alcohol related (even if the death was caused by a tree falling on a car you just got into). It would seem bureaucracy would do things the same way. Now, if this ISN’T true, then we got something as it would fall into the area known as propaganda. What it does show, regardless, is that the spreading out of the deaths with masks, social distancing, etc was not needed. There was no way the hospitals would be overwhelmed.

  23. This all proves one thing. The democrats are so filled with hate for Trump that they will tell any lie no matter how ridiculous to defeat him. What really angers me is they think the American people are so stupid they will believe ANYTHING the Democrats say. They don’t even bother to come up with convincing lies. You should vote out every Democrat for treating you with such contempt and for a long list of other reasons. Democrats are bent on the destruction of the Free Constutional Republic of The United States of America. They will do ANYTHING to accomplish that goal. Vote for freedom in November. Vote Republican.

  24. One of my dermatology team has a family member who went for testing, signed in, and after an hour of waiting, left without the test, received notice that he had tested positive. One of my family members has a friend whose mother had terminal cancer and died. Her death certificate listed cause of death as COVID.
    I belong to an organization with over 12000 members and family. No known cases, and no deaths (Most of us are over 70). Hmmmmmmmmmm.

  25. The third to the last paragraph in your article, which talks about the “180K excess deaths in 2020“ has me extremely confused. Please explain? How can it be obvious that it is NOT the coronavirus that is causing the “excess deaths”? It’s not obvious and it’s not explained in your article. I would appreciate an answer. Thanks!
