In Brief
- The Facts:More physicians are taking to YouTube and publishing articles explaining why they believe COVID19 deaths may be miscalculated.
- Reflect On:Why are people who question what's happening, backing their beliefs up with evidence, constantly silenced and censored? Why are opinions being taken off of YouTube and being labelled as 'false news?'
The list of scientists and physicians calling out the number of deaths attributed to COVID-19 and
explaining why they may be miscalculated continues to grow. This has been the theme for a couple of weeks now, and the idea that many people who are dying now are having their deaths wrongfully attributed to COVID-19 seems to be a concern for many. For example, Professor Walter Ricciardi, an advisor to the Italian Health Ministry, has brought up the issue regarding the way that deaths are recorded. “The way in which we code deaths in our country is very generous in the sense that all the people who die … with the coronavirus are deemed to be dying of the coronavirus,” he has said. “On re-evaluation by the National Institute of Health, only 12 percent of death certificates have shown a direct causality from coronavirus, while 88 percent of patients who have died have at least one pre-morbidity—many had two or three” (Newey, 2020). Pre-morbidity refers to having serious health issues prior to the onset of a disease. According to another study out of Italy, 99% of Italy’s coronavirus fatalities that were examined specifically for this study were people who suffered from previous medical conditions. Obviously, many of these people are still dying because of the coronavirus, they are simply more susceptible to death. But are all of them dying of the coronavirus?advertisement - learn more
An article written by John Lee, a recently retired professor of pathology and a former NHS consultant pathologist raises some interesting questions. He published it in The Spectator, and in it he writes:
“If someone dies of a respiratory infection in the UK, the specific cause of the infection is not usually recorded, unless the illness is a rare ‘notifiable disease’. So the vast majority of respiratory deaths in the UK are recorded as bronchopneumonia, pneumonia, old age or a similar designation. We don’t really test for flu, or other seasonal infections. If the patient has, say, cancer, motor neurone disease or another serious disease, this will be recorded as the cause of death, even if the final illness was a respiratory infection. This means UK certifications normally under-record deaths due to respiratory infections.
Now look at what has happened since the emergence of Covid-19. The list of notifiable diseases has been updated. This list — as well as containing smallpox (which has been extinct for many years) and conditions such as anthrax, brucellosis, plague and rabies (which most UK doctors will never see in their entire careers) — has now been amended to include Covid-19. But not flu. That means every positive test for Covid-19 must be notified, in a way that it just would not be for flu or most other infections.In the current climate, anyone with a positive test for Covid-19 will certainly be known to clinical staff looking after them: if any of these patients dies, staff will have to record the Covid-19 designation on the death certificate — contrary to usual practice for most infections of this kind. There is a big difference between Covid-19 causing death, and Covid-19 being found in someone who died of other causes. Making Covid-19 notifiable might give the appearance of it causing increasing numbers of deaths, whether this is true or not. It might appear far more of a killer than flu, simply because of the way deaths are recorded.”
An article recently published by the Financial Times points out that, speaking at a parliamentary hearing last week, Professor Neil Ferguson, director of the MRC Centre for Global Infectious Disease Analysis at Imperial College London, said it was not yet clear how many “excess deaths” caused by coronavirus there would be in the UK. However, he said the proportion of COVID-19 victims who would have died anyway could be “as many as half or two-thirds”.

At the end of the day, we don’t know, we don’t have all of the data and we won’t for some time. But there is nothing wrong with questioning what we are getting from the mainstream media. That seems to be a duty these days.
Right now, mainstream media outlets are crediting what appears to be a low death toll, to social distancing. “One of the nation’s top public health officials suggested Monday that because Americans are taking social distancing recommendations ‘to heart,’ the death toll from the novel coronavirus will be ‘much, much, much lower’ than models have projected.” (source)
Again, this low death toll comes when some experts, as expressed in this article, are claiming that some of these deaths should not be attributed to COVID-19.
Above are just a few examples, but they seem to keep re-emerging from the medical community. One of the latest comes from Dr. Annie Bukacek, a longtime Montana physician with over 30 years’ experience practicing medicine. Signing death certificates is a routine part of her job. In the video below, she explains her concerns and why she believes the number of deaths attributed to COVID-19 is not really accurate, and probably much lower than what the numbers are currently showing.
Final Thoughts & Related Articles On The New Coronavirus
We are living in a day in age where whatever government says is the complete truth, or at least it seems that way, and any other viewpoint or opinion is actually at risk of being deleted from Youtube or flagged as ‘false news’ on Facebook. Now more than ever, our perception, thoughts and feelings towards certain events, as well as our reactions seem to be largely controlled by an outside entity. This is why critical questioning and discussion should be shared more, and should actually be encouraged. At the end of the day, it’s a great time to go within yourself and really get in touch yourself. If you’re curious about the world and what’s happening around us and want to question and research, do so from a place of peace. One thing is for sure, responding with hate, fear, panic or hysteria is never the appropriate response. The more people ‘wake up’ or at least start exploring their own autonomy and their right to openly question information, and share information, the more of a backlash and response we will see from big interests who are threatened by these discussions. But don’t let that discourage you, keep going, the world needs you!
In the articles below, we go into deeper discussions as to why this current pandemic and the “lockdown” measures multiple governments are taking have raised multiple red flags.
