Watching the foreign news on TV, it is so noticeable that the Coronavirus/Covid 19 is being politicized more so in the U.S. for being an election year this year. But it need not be so. How on earth can some newscasters blame President Trump for “reacting late” about the Coronavirus/Covid 19? The U.S. Department of Health and leading doctors in America should have known about the Coronavirus/Covid 19 from the World Health Organization (WHO) ahead of time. It was their duty to immediately inform the President.
Suffice it to say, to this day, no one has yet found the cure for the Coronavirus. It spread like wildfire from Wuhan, China, where it should have been contained immediately instead of allowing millions of its citizens to travel all over the world; and as it is now appears, not even the airlines were stopped from ferrying passengers out of Wuhan.
Indeed, it is a mystery as one has commented in my column that “the Political Center of China is Beijing; and the Financial Center is Shanghai. Both cities were protected by not allowing Wuhan residents to visit. But Wuhan residents were still travelling out of China. Remember that our first 2 cases (a couple) came from Wuhan.”
He is right for it is now being said that the Coronavirus in Europe originated in Paris. But it was broadcasted in the international news that there was a lady from China who got sick in Paris but was released from the hospital thereafter without telling the world what she had.
There is something pleasant to know why the provincial areas in the country have very few affected by the Coronavirus or none at all. Is it because of the open space? In agricultural areas, nobody seems to be affected; and if any, very few and we don’t know if what the person/s said to be sick of heart problem, flu, diabetes or whatever. There is a tendency now to simply say “Covid 19” or “Coronavirus.”
As announced by two American specialists, those who died in the hospitals mostly in New York hospitals were just certified on the death certificate as “died of Covid 19” without autopsy.
In Italy, if the news is reliable, some 70 patients who died of “Covid 19” were autopsied. It was found that it is not pneumonia the cause of death, but it is disseminated intravascular coagulation (thrombosis).
“According to valuable information from Italian pathologists, ventilators and intensive care units were never needed.”
Strangely enough, two outstanding American doctors/specialists have been saying the same thing; that ventilators or intubation could kill patients with severely infected lungs; that oxygen would be enough. Forcing or pumping more pressure on an already clogged lungs could affect other organs such as the heart, etc… and die from it.
We pray that the day comes that we are told what exactly the patients died of. We understand the fear of autopsying the dead patients. One, for lack of time; two, the possibility of those performing the autopsy from getting infected or contaminated.
It is everybody’s concern to simply know how many really died of the Coronavirus/Covid 19. Many feel the count published is inaccurate for many died from other illnesses. But it seems, “Coronavirus/Covid 19” is the name of the game!
