CBS News just lies through its teeth about heat deaths

 Extreme heat is the No. 1 cause of weather-related deaths in the U.S., a risk that grows as temperatures rise.

From the story here. 

This isn't even debatable in the slightest degree:

Cold-related deaths outnumber heat deaths in all countries

What’s consistent in these studies is that cold-related deaths vastly outnumber those from heat.

In the Global Burden of Disease study, cold-related deaths were around four times higher than heat-related ones.

The study that estimates that 7.7% of deaths were attributed to temperature found that 7.3% were from cold temperatures; 0.4% were from heat.

In the “5 million death” study, 9.4% of deaths were related to sub-optimal temperatures. 8.5% were cold-related, and 0.9% were heat-related. This skew was true across all regions.

You can see these results in the chart below.

Globally, cold deaths are 9 times higher than heat-related ones. In no region is this ratio less than 3, and in many, it’s over 10 times higher. Cold is more deadly than heat, even in the hottest parts of the world.

More. 

Twenty years of data:

US COVID-19 vaccination fell off a cliff in 2022, down 90% from 2021, while confirmed deaths fell by 44% overall

 Just 24.3 million received at least one dose in 2022 through Dec 27.

244.06 million had received at least one dose through 12/31/21.

Per Our World In Data, here.

About 19 million in 2022 received what amounts to the two-dose protocol.

Confirmed deaths in 2022 fell to about 264k from 475k in 2021 at the same time that vaccination fell off the cliff (724 deaths per day vs. 1301 deaths per day).

And in the second half of 2022 about only 70k have died (roughly 385 per day vs. 1066 per day in the first half of 2022). That's still 3.85 times worse than for an average influenza year, but that's a win in my book at this stage of the game.

The CDC is no longer saying, as it did in June, that mRNA from the vaccines lasts in the body only "a few days", and that the spike proteins last only "a few weeks"

 Here's the screenshot from the "Understanding mRNA COVID-19 Vaccines" page as of June 16th:

 

 

 

 

As of July 15th, the facts have changed!

There's no "few days" language anymore, and no "few weeks" language either. Instead at the bottom of the page there's a link off-site to this page, which talks about how long the mRNA and the spike protein last in monkeys and mice, but not in YOU.

After all this time the CDC has no human data?

I'd be upset if I were you. They've been claiming for more than a year that the mRNA and the spike proteins are gone from the human body within days and weeks. They're not claiming that anymore.

The CDC is sweeping this under the rug hoping you won't notice, announcing, as it is, the new guidance.

Why do excess deaths in the US consistently outnumber pandemic deaths?

In 2020 the difference was a whopping 118,000.

In 2021, when vaccination got into high gear, the difference was way down, but still high at about 36,000. That's at least equivalent to a whole year of influenza deaths.

Many skeptics are convinced the vaccines have something to do with this, and the CDC's deletion of "facts" from the fact box above isn't going to help convince them otherwise.

US COVID-19 deaths during the "Delta" wave are completely uncorrelated to mass vaccination

US COVID-19 deaths, July-December 2021: 223,362

US COVID-19 fully-vaccinated by 12/31/21: 206.87m

 

US COVID-19 deaths, July-December 2020: 224,389

US COVID-19 fully-vaccinated by 12/31/20: 0.04m

 

Difference in deaths: 1,027 (-0.45%)

Difference in vaccinations: 206.83m (+517,075%, heh heh)

Mass vaccination made next to no difference in the number of deaths

 

All data is from Our World In Data

For the six months Apr-Sep 2021 the combined UK/India variants produced 83% more cases compared with the same six months in 2020, despite Fauci's claims that mass vaccination would cause a steep downturn in cases

Cases and deaths Apr-Sep 2020 were 7.074m and 0.2025m respectively, for a cfr of 2.863%.

Cases and deaths Apr-Sep 2021 were 12.979m and 0.1463m respectively, for a cfr of 1.127%.

The C19 case fatality rate year over year Apr-Sep 2021 was therefore down over 60%. Total deaths period over period were down almost 28%. The theory that the so-called Delta is more transmissible yet less deadly seems to hold up. The virus has evolved to spread, at the expense of its ability to kill.

That there were comparatively FAR more cases in the 2021 period, nearly 6 million more cases, despite a mass vaccination effort is remarkable. How could that be?

The powers that be are blaming the unvaccinated.

But the timeline of events indicates that the vaccinated are implicated in the latest surge in cases, and therefore also in the deaths, which at over 57k in September are almost as bad as in April 2020.

CDC removed its mask guidance for the vaccinated in mid-May, which the president and vice-president both lauded with great enthusiasm.

And by June 1, 50% of the US population had received at least one dose of a C19 vaccine.

Vaccinated people took off their masks and enjoyed their summer.

Meanwhile Anthony Fauci had indicated on at least two occasions, in December 2020 and again in April 2021, that we would start to witness a decline in cases after achieving that level. But daily new cases just seemed to shrug their shoulders for a month instead, skipping along in a tight range for all of June. Then in July they began to soar, just as the India variant became dominant.

It's important to emphasize how fantastically wrong Fauci was about this.

In December 2020 Fauci had merely said a 50% vaccination level would need to be reached before an  impact on the infection numbers would be observed, but by late April, with cases in another steep decline, he really doubled down on his claim and amplified it:

"When you get to somewhere between 40 -50%, I believe you’re going to start seeing real change, the start of a precipitous drop in cases .”

Instead of that precipitous drop he was about to get 9.8 million new cases in Jul-Sep vs. 3.1 million in Apr-Jun.

The dirty truth in all this is that the wildly growing numbers in the vaccinated population unknowingly spread the virus for 2.5 months, from mid-May through July, before the CDC reversed itself on mask guidance at the end of July after the Provincetown, MA, study showed that the virus was spreading like wildfire among vaccinated people. A Texas prison inmate study has shown the same thing since then.

Many vaccinated people have continued to spread the disease since the CDC reversed itself, however, as numerous incidents of masklessness involving celebrities and government officials demonstrate. My own veterinarians saw no need to wear masks when I took my cats in for appointments in early and late August. The late August one even asked if that was OK with me, which was hardly part of the new guidance. Mask wearing by vaccinated people, especially professionals, should have been de rigueur in close quarters in public by then.

With Pfizer vaccine effectiveness falling off to undetectable levels by month seven, we have an awful lot of people walking around who think they are bulletproof when they are not. They are instead dangerous to public health.

The surge in cases beginning in the seventh month of the year proves it.
