Comments for Unanimous COA hands Governor Cooper a defeat on his COVID dictates | Eastern North Carolina Now

The only one here I see who clearly either can't read or does not understand English is Little Bobbie. One does not go to their doctor for public policy advice.

All of this, both original article and comments, relate to government policy, NOT "medical advice".

This main article and all the comments are related to stopping government overreach as it impairs our Constitutional liberties. Nothing in any of it relates to anyone giving medical advice.

I have a friend whose relative died during the pandemic unrelated to Covid. The hospital told the family they would pay them to let it be classified as a Covid death because they would get paid.

I've heard Judge April Wood speak on several occasions and was quite impressed with her positions and logic. She is an awesome lady who, in this case, rightly called out an out-of-control, overreaching politician who incorrectly assumes the North Carolina Constitution, the U.S. Constitution, and the laws passed by our state legislators are merely "suggestions." Any politician who thinks and acts as if their power is absolute . . . should be removed from office expeditiously.

During the last election, I had yard signs made up that stated, "Cooper for the Pooper -- Let's Flush the "governor" in November." The signs included a picture of a toilet. I stand by my signs!

You pulled those numbers out of the air, Bobbie. Even the fudged CDC numbers do not say that, and have FLorida much lower than third.

The CDC always refused to separate those who died "from Covid" from those who died "with Covid". Hospitals in the US were paid extra if a patient was listed as having died with Covid, so it incentivized hospitals to fudge the numbers. There were way too many cases where Covid had absolutely nothing to do with a death, but it was listed as "with Covid" because the patient tested positive. One widely reported example was a man who died of a motorcycle accident in Florida who was listed as dying "with Covid" because his body tested positive. Then there were a number of deaths by gunshot in a western state listed as dying "with Covid". A conservative pundit pointed out "Not only does Covid seem to be armed but it appears to be a pretty good shot. Who knew?"

The medical statistical agency in Italy finally had enough of the fake 'with Covid" stats and took the initiative without asking their government to unilaterally revise their stats to only include those dying "from Covid". Their overall numbers dropped by about 90%. It is unfortunate that our CDC did not have the integrity to do the same.

They didnt. You made that up. Florida started out well but when it was all said and done, their Covid death rate was just as high as other places
Texas was # 2
Florida #3
Nobody should take medical advice from anyone on this site.
