Numbers don’t line up: Case for panicking over coronavirus is falling apart


'The following are the nine states that have refused to impose lockdowns. All of them have minimal death tolls from the Wuhan virus, including the populous South Carolina, and five of them have not enacted even local lockdowns:
Arkansas — 14 deaths. No statewide or local lockdowns.
Iowa — 14 deaths. No statewide or local lockdowns.

Nebraska — 8 deaths. No statewide or local lockdowns.
North Dakota — 3 deaths. No statewide or local lockdowns.
Oklahoma — 42 deaths.
South Carolina — 40 deaths.
South Dakota — 2 deaths. No statewide or local lockdowns.
Utah — 8 deaths.
Wyoming — 0 deaths.
[Data as of this writing on April 6 at 9 p.m.]
'In New York State, the Bill Gates–subsidized Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IMHE) “model” predicting doom in that state has been exposed as little short of a hoax, as its dire predictions are continually being slashed to match actual numbers and are still wildly off the mark. Yet, in New York City, hovering drones bark out commands to observe “social distancing” of “at least six feet” in a message that ends on a chillingly Orwellian note: “We are all in this together!”
'America’s almost instantaneous transformation into a police state is based on “models” that “predicted” upwards of 2 million deaths from the Wuhan virus without “mitigation” in the form of a preposterous attempt to quarantine 330 million people. And the people have obsequiously bowed to every ridiculous command.
'It is becoming clearer with each passing day that the death toll from the Wuhan virus is not rising exponentially as the “experts” predicted but only modestly in some places while leveling off or even declining almost everywhere else in the country — as well as the world.
'As the real data emerge and the vast contours of Coronagate come into view, I have a sense that this absolutely incredible farce will reach its climax within the next week to ten days. Then the question will be whether the denouement will be a triumph for Trump or a debacle that will usher in the terminal Democrat dystopia. The horrendous human cost of this farce and the immense stakes in Trump succeeding aside, the next two weeks will make for a fascinating study in the sociology of induced mass panic in a mass democracy.
'Pray that the final outcome will somehow correspond to truth and justice.'
