*Keith Rushworth responded to my question, "What's up with that?"—i.e., the fact that NYC, under lockdown,* *has had 11,000 deaths (allegedly) due to COVID-19, while Tokyo, not under lockdown has had just 93.* *His response is so enlightening that I'm sharing it with you.*
*MCM* *Good question. I think a partial answer is that countries close to China had the virus for a while without noticing, as China did. and * *by the time they acted they were already largely immune. See my article, in which I stupidly neglect to mention Japan:* * https://unlockthelockdown.com/why-are-countries-close-to-china-doing-so-well/ <https://unlockthelockdown.com/why-are-countries-close-to-china-doing-so-well/>* *Also, I found this on an epidemiologist's FB page, from Alexandre Barthélémy in Argentina, suggesting that lockdowns basically do * *not work:* *https://www.facebook.com/groups/2356665886/?epa=SEARCH_BOX <https://www.facebook.com/groups/2356665886/?epa=SEARCH_BOX> * *The other part of the equation is why NY is so bad. Their hospital admissions chart is almost a perfect Normal Distribution Curve, which * *seems to peak on around 4th April. Does look like the virus went through with nothing in its way!* *https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/covid/covid-19-data.page <https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/covid/covid-19-data.page> * *Also interesting, a report from New York Post, in which an ER doctor says the peak was quite obvious in the Emergency Room on April 7th. * *A nice confirmation. He says it's now time to end the NY lockdown:* *https://nypost.com/2020/04/27/ive-worked-the-coronavirus-front-line-and-i-say-its-time-to-start-opening-up/ <https://nypost.com/2020/04/27/ive-worked-the-coronavirus-front-line-and-i-say-its-time-to-start-opening-up/> * *Then there's Senator Jensen, Minnesota Senate, who talks of payments of $39,000 for Covid patients put on ventilators. The indications * *are that most such patients died. Does anyone have an good info on payments to institutions for various medical issues?* *https://www.globalresearch.ca/the-big-lie-senator-jensen-hospitals-receive-13000-for-a-covid-19-diagnosis-39000-for-treatment-with-a-ventilator/5710960 <https://www.globalresearch.ca/the-big-lie-senator-jensen-hospitals-receive-13000-for-a-covid-19-diagnosis-39000-for-treatment-with-a-ventilator/5710960> * *I think everyone is struggling a bit with the NY situation. One wag put it down to the virus being hungry for publicity, and the Big Apple is the place to make Big News.* -- If you appreciate News From Underground, please consider making a donation — either a one-time gift or a monthly subscription: http://markcrispinmiller.com/support/ Thank you for your support.
