well the shock is that many of those deaths could've been prevented. this isn't "every year"
the mishandling of this crisis by the federal government is egregious. almost purposeful
When someone comes into the hospital with a broken leg and dies of infection and is NOT tested, they will not be marked with COVID death. If they have same scenario, and test positive, they are added to COVID death count. Whether you agree with this categorization or not, the TOTAL DEATHS paint the picture that SOMETHING is causing significantly more deaths this year/month (more than double) of ALL DEATHS.
Deaths in NY:
Only other outlier is a terrorist attack. This year ain't over
What's causing so many deaths all the sudden now?
Yes and no. Flu can be fairly benign but it can also be pretty nasty, similar to the family of coronaviruses. A new strain of flu can be pretty dangerous, which is also why this coronavirus in particular has been so deadly. The other problem is how infectious this strain is, and how infectious asymptomatic people can be.
But to your original point, it is tough to compare this to the flu. It appears we are counting COVID-19 deaths more stringently than we count flu deaths. We also don't apply universal social distancing measures in a flu season. So it's tricky to compare the numbers.
Also, for any argument that people with covid-19 who die of another cause are still being listed as a covid-19 death, that is simply not a common occurrence. Even in the worst hit counties, a max of 1 in 20 people or so are infected. So at maximum we are undercounting non-covid deaths by 5%.
Upper right wisdom tooth needs to get pulled. It’s slightly coming out from the gums and the root is exposed. No pain yet so I been pushing it off
More and more Seattle restaurants are adopting it and some offering to go cocktail kits for the low. I got a growler today of an IPA for $12. Have seen some margaritas kits going for $20 that make 6-8 drinks.More restaurants should be adopting the alcohol to go model
Seems the restaurants closest to me aren't doing it
Joke's on them. They could've been taking all my money.
I could've probably single-handedly kept them afloat until the shutdown was over
Similar, another national holiday, day off from work too, but it's more for vets. Retirees. Memorial is for past and presently serving. Plus veterans day is in November, so it's too cold to hang out on the boat with your *** out. Memorial day is the the pregame for summer.So it’s like remembrance day except you get a long weekend to bbq and crush some brewskis
what is veterans day then? Or is that the same thing?
I think Memorial Day is to honor those who lost their lives while serving.Similar, another national holiday, day off from work too, but it's more for vets. Retirees.

Bruh...you can't be serious.But when receipts are posted on the lengths that they are going to to inflate that covid 19 cause of death classifications all that is ignored. Thats why I’m saying it’s pointless to argue these statistics. Bottom line this is not a REAL pandemic and that’s my original point. The media is trying their best to make this worse than it is.
Had three pulled out. I still vividly remember my dentist leveraging all his weight, putting one hand on my forehead, because he was having difficulty pulling out the last and I was about to rip off the armrests in pure terror. He gave me a Vicodin script in compensation, so I put it in the win column. Knocked me tf out, woke up drooling blood and spit on my Terminator Judgement Day tee in front of the TV. Good times.i remember getting the top pulled for a couple hundred with no insurance a long time ago. i was fortunate because they treated it like a regular teeth pull since it was coming out straight and all i needed was a shot to numb the area
my dentist brought the oral surgeon in to his office to do the pulling. dude had a strong *** grip to be able to yank them out
