I’ve continued to craft these Threat Index Updates since Dec 14th. Tracking cases – this is, after all, a casedemic now – and comparing that mission-critical data to what really matters; hospitalizations and deaths—no scary headlines. We want to know what your odds are of surviving a positive test.
The nearly-criminal prohibition against positive COVID19 news in the media continues, leaving sites like GraniteGrok to report the truth. Our reward is that we’re right because the state’s own data proves it. And we intend to continue reporting that truth in 2021. So, where are we on New Year’s Eve?
WMUR’s Headline: “NH has seen more than 20,000 new COVID-19 cases in December, DHHS reports.” What does it mean? It means nothing. And while WMUR reports hospitalizations and deaths, they never report any of that in the context for those 20,000 new positive cases. And it matters.
We’ve updated the data using the states 12/27/2020 case summary report. The results continue to prove that cases are not a good indicator of threat or policy. And yes, the government and the media continue to ignore this fact.
Another day in the Granite State living under the pall of a marketing campaign based on false fear. One that can’t stand up to scrutiny. In fact, if it were a private company, they’d get sued for false advertising, deception, fraud, and malfeasance. Since it’s the state, we’re supposed to shut up and take it.
Testing positive for COVID19 is the end of the world if you believe the noise machine. But it’s not. That might be because the primary test (PCR) is crap. But we’ve embraced their crap as part of our ongoing analysis becasue the tyrants did, and the odds of surviving continue to improve.
The political will exerted to slow the spread has not slowed th spread. Masks don’t do it, nor does distancing or other restrictions. But, as we’ve been pointing out, that hardly matters when catching COVID19 presents little real risk of hospitalization or death for any one in the state under 70 in NH.
The math is the thing. Test more people, find more cases, but does that mean anything? Not really. Not to the majority of productive working-age people in New Hampshire. Nor is it a concern to the majority of consumers. But Karen wants what Karen wants.
I’m sure the press you’ve read is that we had one of our worst days ever for COVID19 deaths in the state of NH. It’s always sad and tragic to lose a loved one. But based on the State’s COVID19 case summary for Dec 19th if you are under 70 you still have very little …
Gloria Gaynor had it right way back in 1978. I was a sophomore in high school. Disco was all the rage. Peanut-Farmer turned President Jimmy Carter was wrecking America. And I Will Survive, a song about a bad breakup, rose to number one.
