CDC Director says 75% of omicron deaths are among people with 4 or more comorbidities.
Psychotic mob says she wants them to die.
The psychotic mob is psychotically parroting what the covid propaganda narrative has instilled since day 1, two years ago:
the idea that people near end of life must and can be prevented from reaching the end of life, by eliminating covid virus.
First of all,
we live in a world of viruses
and second:
people near end of life will reach end of life from contact with ANY virus, and even from contact with a sip of spicy soup
CDC Director Said Something Reasonable. The Internet Loses Its Mind. I Add Some Reason.
Stating the facts on the risk of comorbidities has some people very mad at Rochelle Walensky. I defended her. Let's see what comes of it.
Yesterday, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky tweeted the following:
We must protect people with comorbidities from severe #COVID19. I went into medicine – HIV specifically – and public health to protect our most at-risk. CDC is taking steps to protect those at highest risk, incl. those w/ chronic health conditions, disabilities & older adults.This appears to have been a clarification to the backlash from people who completely misconstrued her statement that over 75% of people who are dying from Omicron had four or more comorbidities.
Some have taken this to mean that Walensky thinks that people who are disabled are not worthy of saving from COVID-19, a clear distortion of her language and meaning.
The Independent, for example, ran with this headline:
My disabled life is worthy’: CDC prompts backlash for comments on Omicron deaths
This position conflates “medical co-morbidities” with “disabilities”. People w/pre-existing medical conditions, who are “unwell to begin with”, do not automatically fall into the “disabled” category. That said, many people who are disabled are also immunocompromised.
The reality is that most deaths from COVID-19 have been in the elderly and in people w/co-morbidities from the beginning; early on, it was clear that >90% of deaths in Italy were in people who had pre-existing medical conditions.
Walensky is not saying she’s encouraged that the death risk with Omicron is strongly biased toward people with four or more comorbidities; she’s celebrating that the risk is not high in people with 3, 2, 1 and 0 comorbidities. She’s saying it’s mild for most people. (Sames was true for every other form of COVID-19, but that’s not what’s happening here.)
The backlash to her comments forced Walensky’s hand to state that the CDC is, in fact, going to “protect people with comorbidities from severe COVID-19”.
Her statement, “CDC is taking steps to protect those at highest risk, incl. those w/ chronic health conditions, disabilities & older adults” is in keeping with a public health policy that engages with the facts.
Astute denizens of Twitter, however, took note that Walensky did not provide any specifics on CDC’s plan to “protect people with comorbidities from severe COVID-19”.
So I responded:
@CDCDirector Now, PLEASE tweet these two links - c19early.com and ivmmeta.com - and let the world know you know the science on early treatment is VERY different from how Fauci and the FDA has represented. That would be a fresh start for 2022.I then peppered responses to her tweet from people saying “you have abandoned my child” with invitations to ask an ethical physician about the science on early, aggressive treatments.
Let’s hope the people who feel abandoned can benefit from the hard work of ethical physicians.
