We should about break even this year, pneumonia deaths have fallen to almost zero this winter.

gregg..., Where did you get your information from, or are you just messing with us? What do you think people are dying from during these influenza and SARS-related pandemics? Victims are put on ventilators because of....? Really, give us a few citations to support your claim please. Here's one from me.

Corona virus cures pneumonia. Look people around and think for yourselves.

Apples and oranges. Pneumonia on a death certificate is a clinical diagnosis that doesn't specify the pathogen whereas Coronavirus pneumonia gives more specific information - they are still dying from pneumonia and the specific complications thereof associated with Covid-19.

The baseline pneumonia deaths would still be there if they weren't reclassified as chinkiepox kills.

Dude,

People almost certainly are catching fewer communicable diseases of all kinds due to the lockdown (look no further than the Kinsa dataset on seasonally adjusted fever instances) so that's not especially new news. I assume you were just joking when you called it a "cure" for C19.

I can't speak to the source of the pneumonia data. It comes from a blogger who has some pretty bizarre views, including refusing to pay taxes for years (leading to her bankruptcy after getting caught), and a belief that there is some sort of conspiracy to underreport being a "sodomite" as a COVID-19 co-morbidity. Her self-written bio is a sort of Unabomber manifesto of jumbled thoughts. Sort of comical and ominous at the same time.

Be careful about your reading materials while sheltered at home - it can make you paranoid. :-)

Be safe,
