You have probably seen and heard if you've [00:08.320 --> 00:16.920] been reading or watching some sort of media that flu cases are just a tiny fraction of [00:16.920 --> 00:24.000] what they once were during COVID-19. So what is the government saying about that? [00:30.960 --> 00:36.800] I'm not going to belabor the point that there are fewer flu cases and fewer flu deaths. You're [00:36.800 --> 00:41.520] probably aware of that yourself. The real point I want to make is the idiot statements made by [00:41.520 --> 00:47.520] public health officials as to why that is. But I will touch upon two facts just so that you [00:47.520 --> 00:53.280] understand what the numbers actually look like. How much smaller the numbers actually are. [00:53.360 --> 00:59.440] The first is this from the United States Centers for Disease Control and it's all [00:59.440 --> 01:04.880] deaths involving influenza with or without COVID-19 or pneumonia. And you can see right here [01:05.440 --> 01:15.920] for all of 2020, 6,852 cases. So how many deaths are there in a normal year concerning the flu? [01:16.720 --> 01:20.560] Well, there are no hard numbers. This may surprise you, but there are no hard numbers for that. [01:21.200 --> 01:25.840] Depending on what source you go to, it's anywhere from 24,000 to the mid-50,000. [01:27.440 --> 01:35.120] There's no way to know exactly how many people die each year from the flu. But what we do know [01:35.120 --> 01:40.000] is that somewhere in the 6,000 range is really, really small by comparison. [01:40.640 --> 01:45.760] The World Health Organization has a program where it gathers certain statistics from 54 [01:45.760 --> 01:51.680] different European regions. One of those things that it gathers data on is the flu. [01:52.320 --> 01:58.400] So between the end of September and the end of November, this particular component within the [01:58.400 --> 02:09.040] World Health Organization tested 4,433 people within those 54 regions. So remember 4,433 people. [02:09.600 --> 02:12.320] Do you know how many tested positive for the flu? [02:14.560 --> 02:21.920] One. No, I'm not here to tell you exactly why this is such a dramatically different dynamic, [02:21.920 --> 02:26.800] that it's just a tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny fraction of what it is in any other year. [02:27.440 --> 02:32.480] The point of this, we may never know exactly why. And hopefully there'll be some sort of [02:32.480 --> 02:36.720] forensic examination of all the data. And somebody who has integrity and character [02:36.720 --> 02:39.760] will actually come out with the truth because we can't trust the government or public health [02:39.760 --> 02:44.080] officials, of course, to tell us the truth. But we don't know right now why this is. I know a lot [02:44.080 --> 02:47.360] of people think the government is cooking the numbers and that may be proven or may not be [02:47.360 --> 02:53.840] proven. But right now, as I sit here talking to you, we don't know exactly why this is. [02:54.400 --> 03:00.640] But the important part and the important part of this video is the government's explanation [03:00.720 --> 03:10.320] for the numbers being so incredibly small concerning influenza. Are you ready? Okay, [03:10.960 --> 03:22.560] here is their explanation. Wearing masks, social distancing, hand washing, and locked out. [03:22.640 --> 03:33.040] And lockdowns. Those four things are why they're saying the flu numbers are so incredibly small. [03:33.040 --> 03:40.400] So could that possibly be true? In order to determine that, let's take a quick look at just [03:40.400 --> 03:47.760] two industrialized nations and see what's going on in an environment with lockdowns, hand washing, [03:47.760 --> 03:51.920] mask wearing, et cetera, all the social distancing, all these various measures. Let's take a look at [03:51.920 --> 03:58.640] them and see if those measures stop a virus. What you're looking at is a graph from the data [03:58.640 --> 04:03.920] of Germany. And of course, we see a little shortly after October 1st, when by the way, [04:03.920 --> 04:10.000] the fall flu season kicks in that, well, as far as SARS-CoV-2 is concerned, yeah, none of those [04:12.400 --> 04:18.640] measures stopped a virus. Here's a graph from the data of the United States and about the same [04:18.640 --> 04:22.560] timeframe. And of course, in the United States, we have tons of social distancing. Virtually [04:22.560 --> 04:27.280] everybody's wearing masks. Hand washing is up. And of course, we had some lockdowns. And of course, [04:27.280 --> 04:32.560] governors have recently imposed additional measures almost reaching the point of the [04:32.560 --> 04:40.960] original lockdowns. And yeah, it's not stopping a virus. So in order to believe the narrative [04:40.960 --> 04:48.160] from these public health officials, we have to believe that mask wearing fails with SARS-CoV-2. [04:48.800 --> 04:53.760] But succeeds with an influenza virus. We have to believe that social distancing [04:54.960 --> 05:03.040] fails with SARS-CoV-2 and it succeeds with an influenza virus. We have to believe that hand [05:03.040 --> 05:10.160] washing fails with SARS-CoV-2 and succeeds with an influenza virus. And lastly, that lockdowns [05:10.160 --> 05:16.960] succeed with an influenza virus but fail with a SARS-CoV-2 virus. I think the important thing [05:16.960 --> 05:23.360] to note here is going from October 1st onward. This is, as I said, the fall influenza season. [05:23.360 --> 05:29.280] So what we're seeing is an overlap. All of these measures that the government would tell you [05:29.280 --> 05:35.520] mitigate SARS-CoV-2 are ongoing during the beginning of the fall flu season. So we have [05:35.520 --> 05:44.160] these spiking numbers for SARS-CoV-2. Virtually no flu at all. Clearly the explanation from the [05:44.160 --> 05:49.040] public health officials is absolute nonsense. Only a person with no ability to think logically [05:49.040 --> 05:53.840] or rationally could believe these public health officials. But that's been the case since March [05:53.840 --> 06:01.520] 2020.
