Latest Fake Virus News from the Liberal Leftwing Media

7-year-old boy in Georgia died 'from COVID-19'? Media leaving out key details

It has been widely reported in the last several days that, sometime within the past ten days to two weeks, a seven-year-old boy from Chatham County (the Savannah area), Georgia died "from COVID-19." If the media didn't say the child died "from COVID-19" they reported that he died "of COVID-19" or "of coronavirus." Even Fox News declared, "A 7-year-old old boy from Savannah, Ga., with no underlying conditions, became the youngest victim to die from the coronavirus ..." (Emphasis mine.) 

 Like Fox News, virtually all of the media repeatedly reported that the child had "no underlying conditions." Even my local radio station — repeating the deception every 30 minutes for hours on end — which, among other conservative programming, carries The Rush Limbaugh Show, helped perpetuate this latest example of Wuhan virus "fear porn." 

 The AP — whose stories are often widely distributed in the media — did more accurately report that the boy died "with COVID-19." However, the AP went on to say, "The boy had no other chronic health conditions, according to data released by the state[.] ... The boy's death comes amid nationwide debate about the risks that children face in getting infected or spreading the coronavirus, particularly as the school year begins." 

 The implication is that schools should not reopen, fall sports should not be played, and America must remain in shutdown mode. If not for our own sakes, we must do it "for the children!" 

 As is often the case with so many things when it comes to the Wuhan virus and the drive-by media, few things could be farther from the truth. As of late Friday evening, except for one Savannah TV station — whose more accurate account I first found via Facebook — I could find no drive-by media telling the whole story on this tragic episode. WTOC reporter Cyreia Sandlin provides some crucial details on the seven-year-old's death that the vast majority of the media have so far ignored:

NEW INFORMATION ON CHILD COVID DEATH We have some new information about the youngest COVID related death thus far in...

Posted by WTOC Cyreia Sandlin on Friday, August 7, 2020
So it seems that the boy died not "from COVID-19," but rather as the result of a seizure and a fall in the shower. 

 It seems that, prior to his death, the child had zero Wuhan virus symptoms, and that after he was pronounced dead, "a rapid test showed evidence of COVID-19 positivity." 

 I don't know about you, but I've followed the news and the science on this virus as closely as most anyone, and I have yet to hear any reports of the Wuhan virus causing seizures. 

 If this were the case — especially where children are concerned — it is a virtual guarantee that the media would have daily told us so. It would seem that fair and accurate reporting of this incident would include all of the circumstances surrounding this terrible tragedy and that this is almost certainly another example of someone dying with the Wuhan virus and not from it. 

 All the media have done here is give us another reason not to trust them in this grave matter.

  1. Seizures and COVID-19. Italian case suggests breakthrough seizures may indicate infection.

  2. Did the seizure kill him, or the fall? The report said that there were no "underlying medical conditions". A blow to the head is a death inducing and underlying medical condition. So where's the direct medical evidence that the Covid infection caused the seizure? The kid was asymptomatic to that point in his life where he died. I don't know if your familiar with the term, but asymptomatic means "demonstrating no symptoms" like seizures.

  3. He fell because of the seizure. He had the seizure due to covid. His death was covid-related. The story is not "fake news". A death can have multiple contributing factors. Apparently you believe that if a death isn't singularly caused by covid it isn't a covid death. Also, I don't believe "asymptomatic" means someone without symptoms can never develop symptoms.

  4. Fine lets stick to language "no underlying medical conditions" means that there was no Covid infection, as it was an "emergent" medical condition, not an existent underlying one.

    And where's the medical evidence that the seizure was caused by Covid and not something else? This connection is merely an assumptions of yours.

    And what's the evidence of a seizure actually occurring? Was there good footing in the shower? How do we know he didn't just slip and fall, a tragic, but much more common occurrence?

    His death was due to a fall. It may or may not be related to covid. But regardless, leaving that FACT out was an important omission intended to deceive people as to the actual cause of death (a blow to the head).

  5. I read the news story and took what it said at face value. I made no assumptions. Unlike you, who assumes reporters are out to deceive. Because they are fans of "panic porn". Who the f*ck likes "panic porn"? People dislike being panicked. That is human nature.

  7. All the people who realize what a disaster the Dotard presidency has been will be panicked into voting. Who the hell wants a second Dotard term? Other than people who want to see the destruction of American completed.

  8. lol! Only people who tune into the evening fake news would think that... and fortunately, that's less and less every night. :)

  9. Fake news = Fox, OAN, et al.

    True news = any outlet reporting the facts regarding how Dotard's incompetence could kill you, kill your loved ones, make you homeless, hurt you financially, etc.

    You don't even need to watch the news to hear about how Dotard is destroying the country. MANY people are experiencing it first hand.

  10. You mean destroyed by the Democrats who failed to pass a relief bill? lol!

    ReplyDelete
  11. republicans are failing to pass a relief bill. House Democrats passed their bill a month ago. And the relief wouldn't be necessary if Dotard hadn't ignored the virus for months -- allowing it to spread.

  12. Who needs a bill when we have EOs? lol! And wasn't this the 3rd bill?

    ReplyDelete
  13. Unconstitutional EOs. The $100 Dotard wanted the states to kick in is not going to happen. They will be challenged. The power of the purse belongs to Congress. And Dotard criticized Obama for using EOs. Remember?

    ReplyDelete
  14. lol! He criticized Obama for saying that the EOs he wanted were unconstitutional, and then made them anyways. Stupid is as stupid does.

  15. ...and Caesar didn't say what he did. :)

  16. Acta non verba? aka... Lie to the people with your words -- and also lie about your deeds? I think Dotard is following that advice.

  17. There wouldn't be a single Democrat in Congress if lying disqualified people from office.
