NY Times reporting on the 100,000 lockdown hysteria deaths, but manages to write it in such a way that most readers will walk away believing these deaths are heretofore unnoticed Covid deaths. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/20/health/coronavirus-excess-deaths.html?smtyp=cur&smid=tw-nytimes
"The new tally includes not only deaths known to have been directly caused by the coronavirus, but also roughly 100,000 fatalities that are indirectly related & would not have occurred if not for the virus."
Hmmm. Were it "not for the virus." Strictly true, but total misdirect!

Two more weasel paragraphs, and then, "This is one of several studies, and the bottom line is there are far more Americans dying from the pandemic than the news reports would suggest,” said Dr. Steve Woolf, director emeritus of the Center on Society.
But NOT "from the pandemic"!

"The results indicate that the pandemic “is having a tremendous and significant impact on death in the country, and it may extend well beyond those deaths that are directly classified as Covid deaths,” Dr. Sutton said."
8 paragraphs in, STILL not clear these are non-Covid deaths

"The analysis highlights two disturbing trends. The researchers discovered a high percentage of excess deaths in an unexpected group: young adults in the prime of life. And the coronavirus has greatly raised deaths over all among people of color."
Sounds almost like NOT Covid.
Sounds almost like NOT Covid.
"Although the pandemic has mostly killed older Americans, the greatest percentage increase in excess deaths has occurred among adults ages 25 to 44, the analysis found."
Well, that's DEFINITELY not coronavirus-like. But, we should still call them coronavirus deaths because why?

FINALLY: 23rd paragraph!
"patients may have delayed seeking medical attention or going to emergency room, out of fear of contracting the virus or because medical care was not available. Substance abuse disorders & psychol stress may also be playing a role in excess deaths."

!! Only the final 3 paragraphs -- 23-25 -- nod at the truth !!
"It’s important for people who have these conditions to not delay or forgo medical care because of their fears of the virus.
The danger of not getting care is much greater than the risk of exposure to the virus."

These deaths are just the first wave of deaths from lockdowns and the fanning of fear. https://twitter.com/MarkChangizi/status/1254796958964858882?s=20
Bias that any harms are due to Covid, rather than to "our" own interventions, are astronomical. https://twitter.com/MarkChangizi/status/1285177755114639367?s=20
And, so much social capital has been bet by journalists, politicians & intellectuals that their minds will not even LET them see the truth:
That their super-clever Covid-ambulance ran over 100,000 people SO FAR, and didn't manage to save anyone. https://twitter.com/MarkChangizi/status/1316924655391920128?s=20

There are hosts of medium and long term health and mortality consequences coming. https://twitter.com/MarkChangizi/status/1294285483426697218?s=20
And study after study shows that lockdowns didn't even narrowly help reduced transmission. https://twitter.com/MarkChangizi/status/1286418497011101697?s=20
What were the origins of this? Misinformation, fear, and hysteria. https://twitter.com/MarkChangizi/status/1303164589002162176?s=20
"The virus was SO dangerous that our ambulances carrying its victims to the hospital ended up with blood, hair, and body parts stuck to the tires and bottom of the truck!!!!"
