That free COVID-19 testing isn't free to many,

and Trump isn't going to fix that

Back in April, the Trump administration announced (https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/11/trump-administration-requires-insurers-to-provide-free-antibody-tests-180009) it would require private health insurers to provide free antibody tests for coronavirus.

"It is critical that Americans have peace of mind knowing that cost won't be a barrier to testing during this national public health emergency

People are getting surprise bills (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/09/upshot/coronavirus-surprise-test-fees.html?action=click&module=Top%20Stories&pgtype=Homepage) for the coronavirus tests

"about 2.4 percent of coronavirus tests billed to insurers leave the patient responsible for some portion of payment, according to the health data firm Castlight."

hundreds of thousands of people are not getting the free testing promised by the administration.

Congress has made it really clear that there shouldn’t be cost sharing for Covid-19 testing,”

The charges in some cases are violating the law,

but those violations only count as far as there is an effort on the part of the government to enforce the law.

it's all about how the doctor or clinic or hospital providing the test coded it.

It's all the fault of our complicated medical billing process and,

if there's a number wrong, what are they to do? They go after the patient.

with her test, which was billed as two tests, diagnostic and for antibodies:

"she logged into her health insurance portal and saw four claims associated with her tests:

one for each test,
one for the doctor visit, and
one for other tests she didn’t realize were being ordered."

"Patients at a drive-through coronavirus testing site in Texas, for example, were

unknowingly tested for sexually transmitted diseases."

The insurance companies were, of course, billed for those tests and in many cases would pass the cost on to patients.

Regulations from the administration could remedy that. If the administration cared.

Trump and his team clearly don't care.

They've moved on from the pandemic and

it is immaterial to them whether people come out of this alive and financially secure.

So by age the effect diverges so that one affects the infected individual more than the other. Also, people are not being mass tested for influenza, so really we only have CFR for that since IFR is largely unknown, even then only the very symptomatic influenza cases are being considered. Does that sound right?

It's quite possible plenty die from the flu who are never recorded as such.

We have several studies that have homed in on IFR.

It is not "unkown" and is in the order that was postulated way back when this all began.

somewhere around .0050, with the range of studies putting it between .0025 and .0068 to what I have seen.

We can get CFR by simply using IFR to back into the data. fatalities/IFR = total cases, total cases/fatalities = CFR. simple math.

He’s joined in that disregard for human life by many Republican lawmakers—

and by many of the Republican candidates who hope to reclaim some ground in the House in 2020.

That’s both because this is Trump’s party and because

Republicans have long put their version of the economy (the economy of the rich and corporations)

Republicans join Trump in owning the United States’ pandemic failures.

And they must not get the power to make things even worse.

COVID-19 emails from Nashville mayor's office show disturbing revelation

The coronavirus cases on lower Broadway may have been so low that the mayor’s office and the Metro Health Department decided to keep it secret.

Emails between the mayor’s senior advisor and the health department reveal only a partial picture. But what they reveal is disturbing.

The discussion involves the low number of coronavirus cases emerging from bars and restaurants and how to handle that.

And most disturbingly, how to keep it from the public.

On June 30th, contact tracing was given a small view of coronavirus clusters. Construction and nursing homes were found to be causing problems with more than a thousand cases traced to each category, but bars and restaurants reported just 22 cases.

Leslie Waller from the health department asks, “This isn’t going to be publicly released, right? Just info for Mayor’s Office?"

“Correct, not for public consumption,” writes senior advisor Benjamin Eagles.

A month later, the health department was asked point blank about the rumor there are only 80 cases traced to bars and restaurants.

Reporter Nate Rau asks, “The figure you gave of 'more than 80' does lead to a natural question: If there have been over 20,000 positive cases of COVID-19 in Davidson and only 80 or so are traced to restaurants and bars, doesn’t that mean restaurants and bars aren’t a very big problem?"

Health department official Brian Todd asked five health department officials, "Please advise how you recommend I respond. "

The name at the top of the response is clipped off but you may find the answer unacceptable.

“My two cents. We have certainly refused to give counts per bar because those numbers are low per site.

We could still release the total though, and then a response to the over 80 could be because that number is increasing all the time and we don’t want to say a specific number."

Neither the health department nor the mayor’s office would confirm the authenticity of the emails but councilmember Steve Glover had a Metro staff attorney inquire. Here’s the official answer:

“I was able to get verification from the Mayor’s Office and the Department of Health that these emails are real,” the staff attorney answered.

Glover says this is Metro Nashville orchestrating a cover up.

"They are fabricating information," Glover said. "They’ve blown there entire credibility Dennis. Its gone, I don’t trust a thing they say going forward ...nothing."

Glover says he has been contacted by an endless stream of downtown bartenders, waitresses and restaurant owners asking why would officials not release these numbers?

"We raised taxes 34 percent and put hundreds literally thousands of people out of work that are now worried about losing their homes, their apartments...and we did it on bogus data. That should be illegal," Glover said.

Again, FOX 17 News wasn't told by the mayor’s office this wasn’t true. We were told to file a freedom of information act request.

Which allows us now to ask the question, why are you keeping this from us? Why would you even want to? Its just the real numbers and what could possibly be an honorable motive?

COVID-19’s Other Unnecessary Death Toll

Our bungled national response exposed the fragility of our already broken health care system by keeping people with other fatal diseases from getting treatment

there were 8,300 more deaths from heart disease (https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/investigations/coronavirus-excess-deaths-heart/) in five states (New York, led by hard-hit New York City; Massachusetts; New Jersey; Michigan; and Illinois) between March and May,

about 27 percent higher than would be predicted from previous years.

New York City alone saw more than 4,700 excess deaths from heart disease.

As hospitals in New York City were overwhelmed with COVID-19, they were unable to care for anyone else.

This included people suffering from heart failure, complications of cancer or possibly undiagnosed cancer, and other conditions.

There were simply no hospital beds in the entire city.

This betrays one of the greatest dangers of our 21st-century American health care system:

the very low margins within hospitals.

Empty hospital beds don’t make money.

When medical care is monetized,

the effect is closure of low-income hospitals, such as Hahnemann Hospital in Philadelphia in 2019 (https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/the-closure-of-a-historic-hospital-is-an-ominous-warning-sign/), and

hundreds of low-income urban or rural hospitals across the country.

Even prior to COVID-19, many hospitals were running on razor-thin margins.

We would get nearly daily e-mails that bed capacity was full, that dozens of patients were being housed in the emergency department for hours to days.

When we did not have available hospital beds anywhere in a region or state,

when we hired only the bare minimum level of trained staff to “maintain profits,”

we had no elasticity for handling a mass disaster, such as a pandemic.

COVID-19 literally forced us to make decisions about whose lives are more important—

those suffering from the virus, or those with other serious chronic illnesses?

America’s health care system is like a diseased lung:

no compliance,

no room to expand such that it can take in enough oxygen to help it breathe.

it has no elasticity, if the United States had a rapid, organized pandemic response on a national level,

this not only would have saved tens of thousands of lives from the COVID-19 virus itself,

but also would have given people with serious chronic conditions,

including heart disease and cancer, a better chance of getting the treatment they need for survival.

When the pandemic is over,

it will be clear that the hundreds of thousands of deaths from COVID-19 will be just the tip of the iceberg.

USDA and Meatpacking Industry Collaborated to Undermine Covid-19 Response, Documents Show

Hundreds of emails obtained by Public Citizen and American Oversight offer a rare inside look at the

meat industry's power and access to the highest levels of government.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the meatpacking industry worked together to downplay and disregard risks to worker health during the Covid-19 pandemic

a week before President Donald Trump issued his controversial executive order (https://www.commondreams.org/news/2020/04/28/catastrophic-harm-feared-trump-uses-emergency-powers-keep-meat-packing-plants-open)in April to keep meatpacking plants open—

overriding closure orders from local health officials—

a leading meat industry lobby group drafted a proposed executive order that was strikingly similar to Trump's directive.

"While we knew that the meatpacking industry was lobbying the Trump administration to take steps to protect its profits regardless of the cost to workers' lives, the degree of collaboration these documents show is astounding,"

"As outbreaks continue to emerge in meatpacking plants, it is stunning to see the

cavalier attitude officials took to the health and safety of workers in the early part of the pandemic,"

23 states reported Covid-19 outbreaks in meat and poultry processing facilities, with

16,233 cases and 86 deaths reported in 239 facilities.

Fully 87% of those cases occurred among racial or ethnic minorities.

the prioritization of profit over people.

Lockdown.

If we compare the waves of infection in countries with strict lockdown policies to countries that did not impose lockdowns (Sweden, Iceland …), we see similar curves. So there is no link between the imposed lockdown and the course of the infection. Lockdown has not led to a lower mortality rate.

If we look at the date of application of the imposed lockdowns we see that the lockdowns were set after the peak was already over and the number of cases decreasing. The drop was therefore not the result of the taken measures. 11
As every year, it seems that climatic conditions (weather, temperature and humidity) and growing immunity are more likely to reduce the wave of infection

the call is coming from inside the house


The managing editor of the prominent conservative website RedState (https://www.thedailybeast.com/conservative-site-redstate-purges-anti-trump-voices-fired-writers-say) has spent months trashing U.S. officials tasked with combating COVID-19, dubbing White House coronavirus task force member Dr. Anthony Fauci (https://www.thedailybeast.com/while-coronavirus-rages-in-dr-fauci-we-trust) a “mask nazi,” and intimating that government officials responsible for the pandemic response should be executed.

But that writer, who goes by the pseudonym “streiff,” isn’t just another political blogger. The Daily Beast has discovered that he actually works in the public affairs shop of the very agency that Fauci leads.

William B. Crews is, by day, a public affairs specialist for the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. But for years he has been writing for RedState under the streiff pseudonym. And in that capacity he has been contributing to the very same disinformation campaign that his superiors at the (https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/fauci-on-coronavirus-misinformation-virus-is-not-a-hoax-and-children-are-not-immune/2378159/) NIAID say is a major challenge to widespread efforts to control a pandemic that has claimed roughly 200,000 U.S. lives.

Winehole23
09-21-2020, 12:03 PM
Under his pseudonym, Crews has derided his own colleagues as part of a left-wing anti-Trump conspiracy and vehemently criticized the man who leads his agency, whom he described as the “attention-grubbing and media-whoring Anthony Fauci.” He has gone after other public health officials at the state and federal levels, as well—“the public health Karenwaffen,'' as he’s called them—over measures such as the closures of businesses and other public establishments and the promotion of social distancing and mask-wearing. Those policies, Crews insists, have no basis in science and are simply surreptitious efforts to usurp Americans’ rights, destroy the U.S. economy, and damage President Donald Trump’s reelection effort.

“I think we’re at the point where it is safe to say that the entire Wuhan virus scare was nothing more or less than a massive fraud perpetrated upon the American people by ‘experts’ who were determined to fundamentally change the way the country lives and is organized and governed,” Crews wrote in a June post (https://archive.is/xfHiL) on RedState.

“If there were justice,” he added, “we’d send and [sic] few dozen of these fascists to the gallows and gibbet their tarred bodies in chains until they fall apart.”

More evidence that Capitalist America is a failed state.

The N95 shortage America can’t seem to fix

Nurses and doctors depend on respirator masks to protect them from covid-19.

So why are we still running low on an item that once cost around $1?

N95s were designed to be thrown away after every patient.

By this July afternoon, Williams had been wearing the same one for more than two months.

To get to her, the N95 had traveled from a British factory to a Baltimore warehouse, in a supply chain as tangled and layered as the web of microscopic fibers inside the mask’s filter.

Six months later, that shortage persists, leaving health-care workers exposed, patients at risk and public health experts flummoxed over a seemingly simple question:

Why is the world’s richest country still struggling to meet the demand for an item that once cost around $1 a piece?

Those are minor mutations that as of yet have not resulted in a new strain. Meaning as far as your body is concerned (or a vaccine) it is the same virus unlike influenza.

White House Pressured CDC to Produce Data Backing Trump’s Push to Reopen Schools

https://truthout.org/articles/white-house-pressured-cdc-to-produce-data-backing-trumps-push-to-reopen-schools/

=================

A New York Times survey of more than 1,600 American colleges and universities — including every four-year public institution and every private college that competes in N.C.A.A. sports — has revealed

at least 130,000 cases and at least 70 deaths since the pandemic began.

Most of the cases have been announced since students returned to campus for the fall term.

new cases in 24 states were up 10% week over week.


Twenty-four states saw their number of new cases rise at least 10% this week from the week before, according to data from Johns Hopkins University. (https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/02/health/us-coronavirus-friday/index.html)

The county's seven-day average of new daily cases -- about 42,400 -- is more than 20% higher than where it was September 12, when it was at two-month low of about 34,300.

It's still below a summer peak of roughly 67,000 from July -- but health officials have said even daily cases in the 40,000s are far too high (https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/02/health/us-coronavirus-friday/index.html) if the country wants to avoid a dangerous surge in the coming months, when cold weather will nudge people indoors more often.https://www.cnn.com/2020/10/03/health/us-coronavirus-saturday/index.html

(Find the animated bar chart race at the link)


The numbers are the total confirmed normalized* cases per million for each state since June. A '10,000' means 1% of the state's population has tested positive of COVID since June 1. June 1 was chosen as it was around that time that countries worldwide that had been sucker-punched months before had the opportunity to apply proven preventative measures. It also provided an opportunity to contrast the resulting data with states' political affiliations, using the Cook Partisan Voting Index (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cook_Partisan_Voting_Index). The results suggest a strong correlation between a state's political leanings and its ability to employ proven science to slow the spread of COVID.* "Normalization" means the abnormalities in the data were evened out. For example, if there were 10 days in a row of a few cases/deaths a day and then one day of 1000... that looks awful and frenetic on a chart like this, even when framed in a per-week display. In reality, that 1000 is just a backlog catch-up, so I normalized it by spreading the thousand over previous dates for a more even / more realistic data. It works similarly when the total number of cases/deaths drops one day. Likely a correction from a previous report, I just subtracted the difference over previous dates to numbers that are probably closer to reality.

SARS-CoV-2 is a recently identified coronavirus that causes the respiratory disease known asCOVID-19. Despite the urgent need, we still do not fully understand the molecular basis ofSARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis. Here, we comprehensively define the interactions between SARSCoV-2 proteins and human RNAs. NSP16 binds to the mRNA recognition domains of the U1and U2 splicing RNAs and acts to suppress global mRNA splicing upon SARS-CoV-2 infection.NSP1 binds to 18S ribosomal RNA in the mRNA entry channel of the ribosome and leads toglobal inhibition of mRNA translation upon infection. Finally, NSP8 and NSP9 bind to the 7SLRNA in the Signal Recognition Particle and interfere with protein trafficking to the cellmembrane upon infection. Disruption of each of these essential cellular functions acts tosuppress the interferon response to viral infection.

The research was conducted primarily in the laboratory of Mitchell Guttman, professor of biology and Heritage Medical Research Institute investigator. A paper describing the research appears online ahead of publication in the journal Cell.


The SARS-CoV-2 virus produces about 30 viral proteins. In this new research, the Guttman laboratory examined each of these and mapped out how they interact with the molecular components within human cells grown in a lab dish. They found that SARS-CoV-2 proteins attack three critical cellular processes to disrupt human protein (https://phys.org/tags/protein/) production.

"Each of the processes that SARS-CoV-2 disrupts— splicing, translation, and protein trafficking—is so important for converting the human genetic material into proteins, and they are essential for human biology," says Guttman. "In fact, discovery of each of these processes has separately led to the awarding of a Nobel Prize. These are machines that are central to life. We cannot exist without them. SARS-CoV-2 has evolved in very specific ways to disable these cellular machines and disrupt their functions."

Ifr less than fluin terms of deaths per million, when was the last time the flu killed as many people as COVID-19 in the USA?

Here comes TimDunkem.
He cried about having it
He said all of Texas would be out of hospitals
He said more than 10x flu.

And here we are. Ifr less than flu.

Just like I said.
