The COVID Tracking Project...Italy Death Rate...Evidence over hysteria..


  Coffee surfing this morning... Again, FYI, YMMV, FWIW, WYSIWYG

One of my readers emailed a link to the article by Aaron Ginn below. When I went to the Author's twitter page I found this link:

Up To Date Tracking

The COVID Tracking Project collects information from 50 US states, the District of Columbia, and 5 other US territories to provide the most comprehensive testing data we can collect for the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. We attempt to include positive and negative results, pending tests, and total people tested for each state or district currently reporting that data.

update:

I was scrolling through the data and then went back to the sites home page.

At the bottom, I see they link to some enemedia sites:

You can choose to dissect this article if you like. From what I can tell it was on Medium then taken down. Zerohedge has it posted:

The following article is a systematic overview of COVID-19 driven by data from medical professionals and academic articles that will help you understand what is going on (sources include CDC, WHO, NIH, NHS, University of Oxford, Stanford, Harvard, NEJM, JAMA, and several others). I’m quite experienced at understanding virality, how things grow, and data. In my vocation, I’m most known for popularizing the “growth hacking movement” in Silicon Valley that specializes in driving rapid and viral adoption of technology products. Data is data. Our focus here isn’t treatments but numbers. You don’t need a special degree to understand what the data says and doesn’t say. Numbers are universal.
I hope you walk away with a more informed perspective on how you can help and fight back against the hysteria that is driving our country into a dark place. You can help us focus our scarce resources on those who are most vulnerable, who need our help.
Note: The following graphs and numbers are as of mid-March 2020. Things are moving quickly, so I update this article twice a day. Most graphs are as of March 20th, 2020.

An article about Italy that I found in the comments: 

From THETELEGRAPH << 



Why have so many coronavirus patients died in Italy?

The country's high death toll is due to an ageing population, overstretched health system and the way fatalities are reported


The coronavirus pandemic is exacting a heavy toll on Italy, with hospitals overwhelmed and a nationwide lockdown imposed. But experts are also concerned about a seemingly high death rate, with the number of fatalities outstripping the total reported in China.
Of the 47,000 people confirmed coronavirus patients in Italy, 4,032 so far have died - with a record increase of 627 in the last 24 hours.
By contrast China has almost twice as many cases, 81,250, but 3,253 fatalities. 
In very crude terms, this means that around eight per cent of confirmed coronavirus patients have died in Italy, compared to four per cent in China. By this measure Germany, which has so far identified 13,000 cases and 42 deaths, has a fatality rate of just 0.3 per cent
So why the disparity?

  1. No mention of how many of those were Chinese. Just recently I have come across two different sources that claim the Tuscany area was a 'sweatshop district' for cheap labor from China for their clothing industry. So while your clothing may say "Made in Italy", in all likelihood it was made by a China-man. Couple this with returning Chinese nationals from the mother country after the new year celebration there about the time of the outbreak, and you have an interesting statistic.

  2. and if a person who was infected but died of "lead poisoning" that person wouldn't be counted as a virus fatality. so why would the PLA bring in two incinerators for so few casualties over a four month period???
