Illinois’ COVID-19 data: Weekly update for January 4, 2023 – Wirepoints

The following charts are for reference and are no longer updated.

Be aware that the Case Fatality Rate, or CFR, shown in the following two charts is not a true measure of the risk of dying. Instead, it is a measure of the number of deaths compared to the number of confirmed cases. The true risk of dying is the Infection Mortality Rate, or IFR, which compares the number of deaths to the total number of people who became infected, which is higher than the number of confirmed cases since many infections go unreported. The IFR is therefore lower than the CFR. The IFR, however, is not estimated or reported by the state. Expert estimates vary substantially, primarily because of uncertainty about how many infections are going unreported. A discussion of the difference between CFR and IFR is linked here. Wirepoints' piece on the topic is linked here.

Carl, if you are a real human and not a bad postmodernist AI script, then I double-dog dare you to follow the links in this story.

Even if you are real, I bet you won’t. 😉

Been nearly 3 years since I first interacted with Carl, and he still hasn’t addressed any of the points I brought up back then. You think someone who “thought for himself” and didn’t succumb to “tribal thinking” would be able to answer a simple question or two, but nope.

Just tried to change the subject like he always does.

So Carl: why is it that they were allowed to keep moving the goalposts on what the definition of COVID even was? Still waiting.

I saw that clip. It’s happening a lot for sure. Just found out my niece is having heart issues now. Her mom, my sister in law was all about the vax. Actually told me “if I had any sense I’d go get the vax.” Now all she can say is “I have questions”. Folks, this says it all. My sister in law is a medical professional and my niece is in biomedical engineering. Did her thesis on crisper tech. You can’t make this stuff up.

They need to think carefully how to present this finding to the public because they contradict what they said, because the minister of health, and not only in Israel, continuously claim that the serious side effect are rare, short-term and transient, and told people, told people to go get vaccinated.”… Read more »

Is anyone keeping track of vax conspiracy vs the official narrative? It’s an honest question I pose reflecting on Karen Kingston’s claims. What she is saying is one of the only early conspiracy theories left that hasn’t already been proven as fact. “Totally natural bay virus” vs manmade. “Early treatment doesn’t work” vs vit d, c, zinc and Ivm and hcq etc. . . “The vax prevents infection and transmission” vs Um, no it doesn’t wtf? “The vax is safe” vs do not force people to take an experimental gene therapy there could be consequences.

I haven’t checked this data for awhile now. Two things are are interesting. One despite the psa’s bombarding the general population in my area there is no deadly Covid spike in the near future. Despite what they are screaming at us there is no need to run out and get vaxxed to keep you from getting sick, dying or being hospitalized. We all know that the Covid vaccine has been proven to do none of those things AND the pathogenicity of the Covid variants are way less then the current strain of influenza and RSV. Neither of those are helped… Read more »

In case you missed all the hoopla yesterday, Governor DeSantis hosted the scientific roundtable we’ve been fervently praying for. The short version is, Florida is about to do four incredibly significant things: Convene a statewide criminal Grand Jury to investigate crimes and fraud committed against Floridians related to the covid-19 vaccines. I am NOT making that up! Establish a “Public Health Integrity Committee,” overseen by its Harvard-trained Surgeon General, which will assess all federal public health recommendations and guidance, to ensure that Florida’s public health policies are good for Florida. In other words, we’re not slavishly following the CDC anymore.… Read more »

Chicago area loses population for third year in a row, third-worst loss among big metros – Wirepoints

The latest 2023 Census population estimates show migration and population changes have largely returned to their pre-pandemic patterns across the country. Metro Chicago’s loss of 16,600 people is the 3rd-highest decline among the nation’s metropolitan areas. Only the Los Angeles area (down 71,000) and the New York City area (down 65,000) lost more people than Chicagoland.
