Statistics Prove That COVID-19 Not Dangerous?

There are two versions of the new “statistics prove that COVID-19 is not dangerous” viral message.

One crafted with a pro China viewpoint, and the other with an anti-vaccination viewpoint. If you have seen them, just skip to the bottom for the facts.

Facts : Misleading Statistics, COVID-19 Is Dangerous!

This is yet another piece of FAKE NEWS, using statistics to fool you into thinking that COVID-19 is not dangerous.

Here is what you need to know about these statistics…

Fact #1 : The Statistics Are Not Accurate

The statistics quoted in the viral messages are not accurate. For example :

  • 1.2 million people died from tuberculosis in 2019 (WHO)
  • WHO has yet to release their report on how many people died from tuberculosis in 2020

It is also odd that the fake news creator quoted deaths in the last 3 months of 2020 / 2021 when health authorities generally release mortality data annually.

The statistics also remained the same when this fake news was “updated” for 2021. The latest version actually claims that the (unchanged) numbers are from “the last 3 months of 2021” when it’s only November 2021!

Fact #2 : Statistics Don’t Matter If You Compare Apple To Orange

The fake news creator threw out so many numbers to confuse you. They are also irrelevant because they are comparing completely different things.

For example, COVID-19 is an highly-infectious disease, but cancer is not. Your friends can give you COVID-19, but not cancer.

Similarly, you can infect your elderly parents with COVID-19, but you cannot infect them with the “need” to speed and run red lights.

So don’t fall for this fake equivalence. Dying from COVID-19 is avoidable – all you have to do is get vaccinated. It’s that simple!

Fact #3 : Excess Mortality Shows COVID-19 Effect On Deaths

One way to see the “effect” of COVID-19 on the natural death rate from the usual diseases that kill us is to look at Excess Mortality.

As you can see, the United States suffered approximately 360,000 extra deaths from 26 January to 3 October 2020 than the 5-year average (2015 to 2019).

That excess mortality gives you an idea of how dangerous COVID-19 really is.

Fact #4 : Over 5 Million Deaths From COVID-19

It’s not even the end of 2021, and we have already recorded over 5.1 million deaths out of 253 million COVID-19 cases (as of 15 November 2021).

That’s a mortality rate of 2% – 2 out of every 100 people infected has died. And that’s 5.1 million people who did not have to die in the last 2 years.

Fact #5 : COVID-19 Mortality Increases When Hospitals Are Overloaded

The mortality rate of COVID-19 varies widely from 0.25% to 10%, with an average of about 2.2% (as of 11 June 2021).

That’s because COVID-19 mortality rate is highly dependent on whether people who suffer from moderate to severe disease have access to medical treatment, including ICUs and respirators.

The mortality rate quickly ramps up when hospitals run out of ICUs, respirators and/or oxygen supply. That was what happened when hospitals in India were overwhelmed by a massive surge of COVID-19 cases.

Mass cremations of COVID-19 deaths in India

If all 7.674 billion people in the world gets infected with COVID-19, the mortality rate will likely reach 10% because there are simply not enough hospitals, ICUs and respirators.

That will mean that at least 767 MILLION people will die – everyone of them someone’s father, mother, brother, sister, son or daughter.

That’s why lockdowns and vaccines are needed to break the chain of infection, and prevent the overloading of hospitals.

Fact #6 : COVID-19 Originated In China

Despite what Sinophiles and China have suggested, COVID-19 originated in China. This is a statement of fact, not an invitation to blame China or the Chinese people.

It is therefore wrong for anyone to suggest that the COVID-19 pandemic was planned in order to discredit China, or take over companies, or any such nonsense.

Fact #7 : Sleep + Deep Breathing Won’t Prevent COVID-19

The suggestion that getting enough sleep and plenty of deep breathing will prevent COVID-19 is not only utter nonsense, it’s dangerous advice.

COVID-19 is caused by the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, which is highly-contagious. It is also a completely new virus, so our bodies have NO DEFENCES against it.

There is also NO TREATMENT for COVID-19, no matter what you see on social media about ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine, as of 11 June 2021.

Homeopathy, Ayurvedic and Traditional Chinese Medicine also DO NOT WORK against COVID-19, as of 11 June 2021.

That’s why it is important to get vaccinated – COVID-19 vaccines are currently the only PROVEN WAY to protect ourselves against COVID-19.
