Cutting room floor text:

Regarding my supposition that perhaps no employees at public health agencies died “from Covid,” I’m willing to be proven wrong - all these agencies have to do is provide the numbers.

It would also be nice if these agencies provided the names of decedents and the dates of their deaths.

For the record, the media affairs director of The Alabama Department of Public Health did tell me she couldn’t answer my question due to “HIPAA reasons” - which, I guess, means if some ADPH employee died from Covid, it would be scandalous or somehow cruel to list these employees’ cause of death.

I don’t get the HIPAA cop-out either.

I noted that the CDC can easily erase 36 percent of the "flu deaths" from the worst flu season in 40 years. This makes me wonder if the CDC - maybe five to 50 years from now - might, in one day with one computer click - erase 36 percent of the Covid deaths - which would be more than 360,000 deaths.

If RFK, Jr. appoints the right person as CDC director, it's possible that 99 percent of the "Covid deaths" might be erased with "revised" estimates.
