ONE case of the flu in Africa?
Several major news sources have been celebrating the fact that Africa has had only 1 -ONE- reported case of the flu this season.
All of the news people that reported this comment the same thing-- That it must be thanks to all of the extra protective measures that have been enforcing in order to fight Covid.... So not getting the flu, (while thousands are dying from Corona) is a positive side effect of our new restrictions.
Unexpected bonus? Well, I predicted this whenever I first heard about Covid. To me the natural progression of these events were all too obvious.
They reported basically this....
'Yearly, Africa typically records about 11,000 deaths from the flu. Yet they're wrapping up the year 2020 with a virtually non-existent flu issue.
ONE recorded case of the flu? Just 1, not an exaggeration.
Huh?
............................................................................................................................
Like one network, CBS reported on September 22nd....
------------------------------------------------------------------ Note--
The following is in my own words, but the facts and the #s are the same. The original article can be found here--
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/coronavirus-south-africa-thanks-to-anti-covid-measures-expert-says-country-didnt-have-a-flu-season/ ------------------------------------------------------------------ So Cheryl Cohen, (the head of NICD’s respiratory disease team in Africa) said these exact words....
“The main explanation is that measures against coronavirus are having an impact on flu transmission....”
Others are saying that closing the borders in South Africa may play a really big part in the reason flu problem is virtually non-existent now.
But Cheryl Cohen says the closed borders had a small effect, but that it was really all of the extra precautions like 'social distancing', washing hands, and wearing masks that are to thank for the disappearing flu
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B.T.W.... Australia has also reported a new record low count of recorded cases of the flu this year. Wow...;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.....................................................................................................................................
BUT--
Same time periods
Same places
And we we have 2 respiratory viruses that spread virtually in the same way.
And both are notoriously contagious. Dangerous. Yatta, yatta, yatta.... Hhmmm?
....................................................................................................................................................
Now.... About Covid....
(As of August 26th....)
"South Africa has recorded 149 new coronavirus-related deaths this season. The 'death toll', (Which is admitted and explained by the CDC's website to be actually a rough estimate) is now 13,308 Corona related deaths. According to reports." .....................................................................................................................................
BBC News reported on September 17th.....
Some actual good news...;
Following is quoted from the news website found here--https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-54186040
"South Africa - which went into a national lockdown on 27 March - has so far reported more than 650,000 confirmed infections, with over 15,000 deaths.
However, the number of new cases has dropped from about 12,000 per day in July to fewer than 2,000.." .....................................................................................................................................
*******
------------------------------------------------------------------------ Now--
Here's what I want to say about all of this odd news.... -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well the news report last mentioned is a positive/happy one, but if you stop to ponder and compare those (thankfully dropping numbers) to the amount of reported flu cases....
This simply makes no sense, does it?
I'm taking this OBVIOUS mess-up by SEVERAL of the major news networks at the same time-- As an opportunity to point something out that 'they' do on a regular basis to deceive the public. Only this time it was just insulting to everyone's intelligence. Yet people believed it because.... Well....
But but but....
They're just reporting the facts right? The facts may seem extreme or unnatural, but these are still just the 'reported facts' right?
Well....
Yes; and at the same time; very fundamentally; no.
I'll explain....
'Facts' stated in different ways-- With little things left out, said with a certain tone, personality, mood or attitude, ect., can end up at least SEEMING to implicate FUNDAMENTALLY different things. Even sometimes the exact opposite of how things actually are when realized without the extra words, tones, and or things left out. Even if those things are in some ways considered miniscule differences.
Intent, vendettas, biases, financial motivates, fear, anger, delusions, just plain 'evilness'....
....Just a short list of some things that can effectively skew the people's perception of reality when communicated in just the right way. They're even more impressionable if they have little or no ACTUAL understanding of what REALITY is on whatever subject.....
A past 'oopsie' example; or blatant LIE rather; happened not long after President Trump was first elected....
Remember when the media totally created that lie-- (and B.T.W., they knew they were lying because they were there and knew better. Not a 'mistake') how when Trump went to Asia....? The 'fish story'? In case you weren't paying attention at the time, (can't say I blame you for that lol. The media had lost their damn minds.) here's what happened....
"The Hill called them out here....--
Like The Hill sascase you don't like links....
First, here's a few pictures that make it obvious the story they were trying to tell the public....
All propaganda. A big lie. Feeding America's hate towards Trump and trying to turn people that did like against him.... As usual....
President Trump was shown in a very short video and or pictures by SEVERAL 'trusted' news sources--
Dumping an entire box of fish food into a Koi pond during on his trip to Asia early in his Presidency. The narative touted by the news was trying to show people that Trump was both stupid and extremely direspectful towards the country he was a guest of. Like Trump had no idea how to behave regarding foreign customs and also that he doesn't care about the environment either.
CNBC’s Christina Wilkie tweeted the following pic.... (Quickly deleted when truth was exposed)
“Trump and Japanese PM Shinzo Abe were scheduled to feed koi spoonfuls of food. Until Trump poured his entire box of fish food into the pond.”
What really happened?
As The Hill pointed out--
"....The CNN example includes edited video that zooms in on Trump to only show his face and prevents the viewer from seeing what Japanese Prime Minister Abe was doing at a key point of the short event.
Why was Abe edited out? Perhaps because he took his entire box of fish food and dumped it into the pond. Trump followed Abe's lead and did the same seconds later....."
.................
"....Another day, another example of media bias.
Oftentimes that bias is subtle.
But in this feeding frenzy, it was not only blatantly overt, but intentional in its deception...."
.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... The above story is the perfect example of most of the major news people pushing dishonest stories to the public. But there are MANY more. Parroting each other because they're all getting paid by people that will do anything to destroy Trump because he's a direct threat for the lives of crime they've always gotten away with before. They've always gotten aware with it before because past Presidents wee mostly 'in their back pocket'. The few that weren't, (Kennedy and Reagan) were either shot or shot at, and got scared enough to stop pursuing them for their crimes against humanity. Which would turn most people's stomach inside out if they knew....
But that's for a later article.... ........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Anyways.... Back to the original story--
I'm trying a method of sharing truths with my fellow Earthlings in a way that isn't done by others very often....
The only time I make a big deal about certain things is when; either it's something that is an indisputable fact, (like the above story that was so embarrassing for most of the media) or it's something that's really important that effects all of us, and there's not enough other people pointing it out.
Or the worst scenario....
People that ARE pointing out the 'other side', but in a way that is grossly inaccurate.... Therefore, dangerously misleading people into thinking to themselves--
"The people on the other side of the narrative are OBVIOUSELY either just stupid, liars, and or insane, so the other side of the story isn't worth investigating and should all be ignored"
Sometimes, it's best to just help people get their minds working again....
So they can think for themselves-- (like so many people have forgotten how to do) Hopefully, they'll do their own research. Which is the best way to come to a better understanding of something anyway. Widen their perspectives.
If people have further questions about these subjects, I've already shown that I am not afraid to talk about these types of 'taboo' subjects. So I have no doubt they'll ask if they want to know.
I'm not here to push my own version of facts and force an opinion onto anyone....
Mostly, this article was a form of therapy for me. I just had to go on a long rant. Presented to my peers. With the excuse of 'shedding light on the evils of the world'....
Thanks for reading my really long rant lol.... Love for all, with chosen forgiveness for the evils too.... Peace ;)
awesome
