Tragic but not a pandemic
James Strodel Please educate yourself sir. It is a pandemic
Laurie Anne that’s your opinion.
James Strodel it’s NEVER been a pandemic. It’s been a politicaldemic. We know it and they know it but are so full of hatred that they deny deny deny the facts. After all… How many times now has the CDC and WHO changed their numbers to admitting fudging!
Jeffrey Dingsor you are wasting your time just as I did…. Until they loose their home or job or both then they will change their tune or continue to blame the Republican president even though it’s the Democrat governors closing and hindering them from providing for their families. But I need to educate myself
James Strodel I agree. The leftists today have never met a single fact that they’ve liked. Lol… I keep reminding myself that facts don’t care about their feelings.
Jeffrey Dingsor Wow. What a bunch is bs.
Laurie Anne Nice colorful chart you got there. I see that there is no date on it to tell us when it was created. Before or after the number fudging. If I had to venture a guess, I would say before. But then again, I stand by what I said when it comes to facts. the left will deny anything that goes against their talking point. For instance… “There are good people on both sides.” Let’s take one sentence out f the entire thing and make that the narrative. Nice try.
Jeffrey Dingsor I didn’t post a chart so unsure what u are referring to.
Jeffrey Dingsor yes political scamdemic
Apparently you don’t know!!!
We’re #1 at something….
Just lock down Lakewood and let’s carry on
Anne Palumbo-Landolfi absolutely ????
Anne Palumbo-Landolfi my son manages a wawa in lakewood…. just had another covid case shut down. Its ridiculous
One death, we need context. What is the timeframe that this was used from. How many days?
How many people died this year of cancer, flu, car accidents, murder, suicide? Can we see those numbers too?
Brian Bozza that data is available if you did research, how does those deaths negate the ones who died from Covid??
Cheyenne Maldonado not negating at all, just saying people die. We shouldn’t stop living in fear of dying
Cheyenne Maldonado not to mention the actual deaths from just covid is 9000, the rest had one or more conditions that contributed to their deaths, just like they would have possibly with the typical flu. Research, it’s an amazing thing. And before you wish covid on me, I had it, I survived, lasted 4 weeks, felt like a cold that wouldn’t go away
Brian Bozza Everyones body reacts differently. And its not 9000 deaths. Also with that logic, If you get in a car accident and die a week later from blunt force trauma, the car accident didnt kill you the blunt force trauma did. even though without the car accident the injury never would’ve happened…
Taylor Lynn um, contributing factors, agreed, my point was, the virus itself killed 9000 go look it up, maybe not exact number now but not 210,000 from just covid alone. Listen, wear your masks, stay inside, social distance, you do you.
Brian Bozza the virus killed way more people was my point.
Taylor Lynn It cites data from the CDC that said six percent of COVID-19 deaths (or roughly 9,000 Americans) were from the virus alone, but downplays the full data which show the remaining deaths had contributing causes in addition to the coronavirus.
Taylor Lynn no, it didn’t.
So here’s my problem with your logic, yes it does say 9000 people without comorbidity died from it but the people with comorbidity wouldn’t have died if it wasn’t for complications from covid-19. Your ignorance is pretty astounding.
Cheyenne Maldonado Exactly!!
It’s pretty amazing to me how many people only read part of an article and pick and choose what they want to use from it.
Cheyenne Maldonado calling names, typical, as I said, the same complications from seasonal flu could have been just as deadly to those same people who died from this. But I understand you have been brainwashed by the media to believe this is the worst virus ever to hit the world. Have a nice day
Brian Bozza google those statistics man. That’s not pertinent to this issue. COVID 19 is the key topic in this post. Just a suggestion
Maureen Coates already did, posted directly from what cdc said in august. Have a nice day
People would not have died? EVER?
Actually people would have died. Maybe not all of them but all deaths in the US in general are lower this year than the past few years. Also, other reasons for death are much lower this year for comorbidities. You know why? Because they are counted as covid if they died with covid. So someone dying of cancer contracts covid and dies is listed as a covid death. Many of them weren’t even tested and deemed covid deaths because they may have had symptoms. The fact that the US is trending for lower death counts this year compared to prior years and projections tells me something isn’t adding up. All those other death counts are significantly lower this year. Is covid real? Yes. Should it consume our lives? Not at all. It’s a virus. If one needs to stay protected, stay protected.
Brian Bozza they wont disclose that but even if you died in a car accident it was listed as covid
Taylor Lynn yes it was 9000 deaths
Brian Bozza exactly what i saw
Acutally deaths were up 20% from last year between March and August. Which is not common. But you guys also are saying people with Asthma would have died with or without Covid? Come on guys, you are actually this blind are you??
I bet you all would have taken this seriously if trump said to. Think for yourselves. I hear the same argument from trump supporters but where is the ACTUAL science to back it up, not what you want to pick and choose to hear, you take scientific data and misconstrue it to your liking. That’s not how science works. Have any of you actually work in a science/medical field?
Brian Bozza I was referring to your comment about death numbers with murder, cancer etc
Maureen Coates actually I have stats of past years where cancer and other deaths including flu came to 2.3 million per year average
Cheyenne Maldonado since you believe in science, do you believe that the scientists are saying the covid tests are producing false positives as well as false negatives?
It’s all bullshit . It’s a less lethal flu .
Such bullshit enough already
Notice how NOW it says “probable deaths”???
Fuck you Murphy
I wish they would STOP SAYING OCEAN COUNTY. We would be the lowest if Lakewood was off the map. Disgusting government. MURPHY YOU SUCK
And todays numbers are…….
Horsetooth Tyrant ????
Tommy Di Biase murp talkin shit agn
Fk covid. Let’s live our loves
???????? funny they say all theses deaths from COVID when they not allowing Autopsies
Tracy Carr Exactly!
Tracy Carr exactly
Does anyone else have an issue with the words,” probable deaths”? That to me says can’t confirm that covid was the reason alone
So 2.8 million are immune now??
Bull we need numbers fro CDC
New Jersey Stats after 6 and a half months of COVID-19: 5.3% of total tests tested Positive – 2.4% of total population of NJ tested positive. 6.7% of total positive tests died (any % too many) – 0.36% of total tested died – 0.16 of total population of NJ have died.
F*CK YOU MURPHY !! I HATE YOU. ????????????
Diane Jobes-Hagan wow. Chill.
When he leaves office I will. Lol
Wow only five percent, open the fucking state!
I wanna know how many are false positives, due to the type of test that was given.
If you died of a gunshot wound, stabbibg, blunt force trauma, fell off a building, slipped in the bathtub, fell down a flight of stairs, car accidents, alcohol poisoning, drug overdose, heart attack, cancer, etc., and you happen to test positive for Covid, Covid is listed as your cause of death.
The numbers of bullshit.
Here’s the real reason everything remains restricted.
Misty Dakota where was this from?
Josephine Sorce Steriti I believe my sister found it on AOC’s Twitter account.
FALSE INFO
Sue Scags Scalegnio how would you know?
373 people for 9.2 million…
