Not directly, no. Indirectly, possibly. However, deaths coming from indirect factors happen for a number of reasons, not just economic downturns.
That's why you address direct cases first.
Can you show me how because you think I am stupid so you must show me !

People lose money; they lose the ability to care for themselves.
People not getting cancer screenings / physicals b/c they're told to stay home.
What you're calling "direct cases" are not life threatening in most cases.
This wouldn't be a huge political football if common sense measures were taken.
Let the doctors decide what's life threatening or not, not the politicos or the businessman.
And the cancer screening angle is bull , the only reason they went down is because people, who, unlike you, have common sense and understand this is a medical emergency, have delayed their routine mammograms and colonoscopies out of their own volition. Government only recommended to pause them, didn't mandate.
Heck, I took my wife to have her routine mammogram this morning, so I know for a fact that's a terrible excuse.
Millions of uninsured Americans lining up to get cancer screening.![]()
You know what the problem is? You still think this is the flu and a conspiracy to bring Trump down... and you're deeply upset. It's neither. There's just no talking sense into you though, you lost the plot a while ago.
And it's not like the economy isn't important. But you get your priorities straight. It's not like States haven't been trying to reopen, etc. Just have to be careful about it, and when es like the ones in Texas, Florida or California show up, you just have to slow things down some again.
If you overwhelm hospitals, you're not caring for people either.
Hopefully the death rate continues to stay low (yet to be seen after these es), and hospitalizations also stay low, and we can slowly make progress.
ing without codoms telling woman to kill babies because it might hurt their pocket book is more deadly then Covid 19
Let's not pretend that you care about that baby once he/she goes into welfare because they were born into poverty, tbh...
"The non-oligarchy is hurt the most by the Dems"
how so? The Dems HEROES act is pro-LABOR, and Repug McConnell has killed it
"those who are against school choice"
(religious) school choice is segregationist and is the oligarchy's strategy to divert taxpayer $Ts from public schools to the oligarchy who wants to privatize everything public into for-oligarchy-profit.
"Education is the best way out of poverty" it helps for sure, but of course underfunding non-white schools is how White Supremacy maintains itself
"yet people still stubbornly vote for those against school choice" bull . (religious, for-profit) school choice does not equal "education"
"Go protest for school choice and make the money follow the student - that will improve education and then income"
for-profit charters, religious "education" have not be proven to "improve education", quite the opposite.
goddamn, you're ing stupid
Bou, sounds like you just don't like RELIGION - be careful that word might be rivaling OLIGARCHY in your posts :-)
If you want to really improve minorities' lives and narrow income inequality, (imho) the only way to it is thru better education - giving kids in poor neighborhoods the chance to attend better schools - not some single bill like Heroes Act - seriously how many people is that going to affect and with what - a few hundred/thousand dollars?
The point is students/parents get to choose the school - hopefully they will choose the best one for their child and the bad schools will CLOSE because no one will CHOOSE to go there. The remaining schools will improve hoping to attract more students and so on and so forth.
Please, inner city, non-white schools probably get more government funding than suburban schools in wealthier neighborhoods - le 1 funding, free breakfast/lunch based on income, etc.
"Bou, sounds like you just don't like RELIGION"
religion is fine for people susceptible to it, but not fine when they start imposing their religion on other, and murdering people of other reliions.
"If you want to really improve minorities' lives and narrow income inequality, (imho) the only way to it is thru better education - giving kids in poor neighborhoods the chance to attend better schools"
agreed, but it hasn't happened and won't happen because of American White Supremacy, which denies equality of opportunity to non-whites.
- not some single bill like Heroes Act - seriously how many people is that going to affect and with what - a few hundred/thousand dollars?
1000s of teachers are laid off, they would love to hae $600/week. I think in the Banksters Great Depression 400K? teachers were fired.
I don't see anything in the HEROES act for education, it appears to aimed at compensating health care having lost $Bs to treat C19, and to continue supporting the unemployed.
"The point is students/parents get to choose the school - hopefully they will choose the best one for their child and the bad schools will CLOSE because no one will CHOOSE to go there. The remaining schools will improve hoping to attract more students and so on and so forth."
totally theoretical, and total fantasy. Poor kids go to the ty, underfunded public schools in their POOR district, while non-poor kids go to funded public schools in their non-poor district. White People don't want to be "Robin Hooded" to pay for poor people's schooling or health care.
not all non-white schools are inner city.
I read an article where there was some kind of exchange problem for a day for students, between non-white and white schools. The non-white kids were astonished at the well kept buildings, the tons of equipment at the white schools.
non-white schools do not receive anywhere near the funding of white schools.
