A brand new study is calling into question how reliable and meaningful of a number of “patients hospitalized with Covid-19” in the U.S. is.
Covid hospitalizations – the most common metric heard when discussing the seriousness of the pandemic – may not be nearly as meaningful of a number as many once thought. And don’t take it from us: The Atlantic published a stunning piece on Tuesday citing a new study that suggests “almost half of those hospitalized with COVID-19 have mild or asymptomatic cases”.
The Atlantic had formerly called Covid hospitalizations “the most reliable pandemic number,” last winter. Now, after a nationwide study of hospitalization records was release, the publication is walking back its fervor on that statement.
Researchers from Harvard Medical School, Tufts Medical Center, and the Veterans Affairs Healthcare System took on the task of trying to figure out how serious Covid cases were in those hospitalized, and how many people counted as Covid hospitalizations were actually in the hospital for Covid, versus getting a Covid test after being admitted for something else.
The study “analyzed the electronic records for nearly 50,000 COVID hospital admissions at the more than 100 VA hospitals across the country,” The Atlantic wrote. It “checked to see whether each patient required supplemental oxygen or had a blood oxygen level below 94 percent” in order to try and determine if cases met the NIH’s threshold for “severe COVID”.
What the study found was that from March 2020 to January 2021, 36% of Covid cases in the hospital were mild or asymptomatic. From January 2021 to June 2021, during the Delta variant’s spread, that number rose all the way to 48%. For vaccinated hospital patients, the number rose to a stunning 57%.
As The Atlantic put it in their own words: “The study suggests that roughly half of all the hospitalized patients showing up on COVID-data dashboards in 2021 may have been admitted for another reason entirely, or had only a mild presentation of disease.”
The limitations of the study obviously included the fact that the VA isn’t representative of the total U.S. population:
Among the limitations of the study is that patients in the VA system are not representative of the U.S. population as a whole, as they include few women and no children. (Still, the new findings echo those from the two pediatric-admissions studies.) Also, like many medical centers, the VA has a policy to test every inpatient for COVID, but this is not a universal practice. Lastly, most of the data—even from the patients admitted in 2021—derive from the phase of the pandemic before Delta became widespread, and it’s possible that the ratios have changed in recent months. The study did run through June 30, however, when the Delta wave was about to break, and it did not find that the proportion of patients with moderate to severe respiratory distress was trending upward at the end of the observation period.
Graham Snyder, the medical director of infection prevention and hospital epidemiology at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, says the study buries the lede of how effective the vaccine is: “It’s underreported how well the vaccine makes your life better, how much less sick you are likely to be, and less sick even if hospitalized. That’s the gem in this study.”
Daniel Griffin, an infectious-disease specialist at Columbia University, concurred: “People ask me, ‘Why am I getting vaccinated if I just end up in the hospital anyway?’ But I say, ‘You’ll end up leaving the hospital.’”
“We should refine the definition of hospitalization,” said Shira Doron, an infectious-disease physician and hospital epidemiologist at Tufts Medical Center and co-author of the study. “Those patients who are there with rather than from COVID don’t belong in the metric.”
What does the study as a whole conclude? Again, in the words of The Atlantic: “…the study also demonstrates that hospitalization rates for COVID, as cited by journalists and policy makers, can be misleading, if not considered carefully.”

In other words, if you’re not vaxxed, we’re gonna put you on a ventilator and kill you to death!
At this point in the plandemic, is it even POSSIBLE for the medical community to ever awaken from their mass psychosis?
The ones that are awake are the ones they are letting go, so the medical community psychosis will only increase.
Anyone trying to engage in economic activity right now can see that competency has fled everywhere and it is difficult to get anything done with our brown skinned replacements.
When the blindfold is applied maybe.
They just lie about everything and then wonder why people don’t want their “vaccines”.
If you want to increase your odds of dying from “covid”, go to the hospital.
“Covid hospitalizations – the most common metric heard when discussing the seriousness of the pandemic – may not be nearly as meaningful of a number as many once thought.”
“…the study also demonstrates that hospitalization rates for COVID, as cited by journalists and policy makers, can be misleading, if not considered carefully.”
Well duh!! ALL of the statistics related to “COVID-19” are meaningless. This includes cases, breakthrough cases, deaths, hospitalizations, vaccination status (i.e., whether a person is considered not vaccinated, vaccinated, or fully vaccinated), and vaccine efficacy. Statistics can be, and often are, manipulated to appear to support whatever narrative the presenter is attempting to promote. And in the case of “COVID-19” the manipulation is off the charts.

Other Natural Preventatives & Protocols
• Drink Flu Tea, especially during flu season (the essential ingredients are ginger, cayenne pepper, lemon and honey but don’t heat the lemon or the honey–add them after the fresh ginger tea is brewed).
• Take at least once a day a healthy carbonated beverage or drink with sodium bicarbonate added to it. Coffee drinkers can add a pinch of baking soda to their morning brew as can tea drinkers. Both Perrier and S.Pellegrino are very good to drink regularly instead of sugary or sweet sodas; but with a wedge of lemon or lime squeezed into them. The more acidic one’s diet during flu season, the more important it is to ALKALIZE THE BODY as pathogenic micro-organisms thrive in the acidic environment. The best way is to eat a preponderance of warm alkaline foods throughout the cold season. See this Acid/Alkaline food chart: How To Alkalize Your Body With The Ideal Dietary Regimen
• Hydrogen Peroxide nebulization has proven to be an excellent way to both prevent and treat respiratory viral and bacterial infections. Dr. Shallenberger’s article notes: “the treatments are simple. Just attach delivery mask to the nebulizer output (see the devices instructions for specifics). Then add 3 cc of the hydrogen peroxide and saline mixture to the nebulizer. Place the mask over your mouth and nose and breathe normally until the solution is gone. It’s as simple as that.” One treatment usually takes 10-15 minutes. See: Hydrogen Peroxide Nebulization for COVID-19 Respiratory Ailments
• Use a Neti Pot regularly during this flu season with 1/4 tsp of sea salt dissolved in body-temperature distilled water. Or have a saline nasal rinse kit on hand such as NEILMED’S SINUS RINSE.
• Start to eat right for the coming cold season (LOTs of garlic and ginger and turmeric and curried foods). Lean toward hot soups, stews and broths particularly at dinner time for the rest of the flu season. Avoid cold foods from the fridge especially yoghurt, sandwich spreads and cold drinks. Add just a little boiling water to quickly warm up juices as well as nut or seed milks. Frozen foods like ice cream are strictly forbidden. Cook all vegetables much softer than usual. Best to go vegan, if possible; otherwise, all animal meats ought to be very well cooked and eaten infrequently.
• Be regular about replenishing the diminished intestinal flora with probiotics; beverage and food-based forms are much preferred to nutraceuticals (e.g. capsules). For those with lactose intolerance and/or casein allergies, acquire some coconut, cashew or almond yogurt or kefir (let these warm up first before eating). Also, consider probiotic rectal implants when significant flora depletion is suspected. (Purchase here: Organic Liquid Probiotics)
• Regular Exercise and Stretching, Power Walking and Rebounding, Hatha Yoga and Pilates, Tai chi and Qigong are all great to do. Get as much exposure to Sunlight as possible for natural Vitamin D production. (Sunlight is said to be the best of disinfectants so the coronavirus doesn’t like it). A 20 to 30 minute aerobic walk in nature is the single best way to cleanse the entire lymphatic system—A MUST![1] Don’t power walk outside when the skies are heavily chemtrailed; you’ll feel the health consequences.
• Breathwork as simple as daily deep breathing outside in the fresh air is highly recommended; so are certain pranayama practices. Coherent breathing is particularly effective in activating the body’s natural immune response (See this video link).
The best way to navigate any flu season successfully is to take the preventive approach.
The preceding holistic health measures and natural remedies/treatments provide an excellent framework to do just that.
May Everyone Enjoy Good Health!

You always get more of what you subsidize.
It is better to trust most front line medical personnel than medical bureaucrats who are under the influence of big pharma.
Who thought the truth was suddenly going to be part of the narrative? This entire plannedemic has been based on lies and more lies.
Hey, mark ….. I see via Dashboard that you submitted a long post about guidelines for healing …. BUT, it does not appear here! (It might be in the TBP spam folder.)
Anyway, you wrote; “Avoid cold foods from the fridge especially yoghurt.
Can you please explain why yogurt should be avoided?
I am a huge proponent of gut health … where disease fighting immune system STARTS. Real yogurt with living microbe probiotics … well, I gobble that down 3 -4 times a week.
“The limitations of the study obviously included the fact that the VA isn’t representative of the total U.S. population:”
The VA pop represented here is going to be older and sicker than the general population by far, i.e. those cherry picked numbers are the worst looking ones they could find and it is still an obvious disgrace and fraud.
That means the other half were seriously sick and/or died?
Lies lies and more lies. Do they really believe their own BS? You’d have to be willfully ignoring at this point to not know that the “vaccines” are killing and maiming people and the Unvaccinated are just fine unless they’re already dying from something else. Covid19– Statistically the same as Influenza! What I want to know is when are these lying scumbags finally going to land in prison where they belong?
The answer is : 1. After the story of Hunter Biden’s laptop becomes mainstream, 2. After the Biden administration tells the truth about the 2020 election , or 3. When Hell freezes over..
Once the prosecutions for all the lies told to start the Gulf Wars are done, I am sure the Covid liars will be next………
For 30+ years I have been telling people that letting TPTB get away with each atrocity just makes it easier for them to get away with the next one. Now we have reached the point where the mAsses think this is the ‘correct’ way to proceed, as two generations have never seen any other way of being ‘governed’. Freedom and rights are merely abstract concepts and they have never really experienced them.
50 years after the final Durham report.
Mirror Mirror on the Wall, who are the most dastardly, corrupt, criminal, and evil in the Land?
The Doctors and Nurses.
How can this society remain even remotely just and free within this reality?
fake virus, fake pandemic, fake numbers of infected, fake numbers of deaths , fake numbers of hospitalizations , fake media, fake scientist, fake president, fake freedom, fake America. i haven’t believe a single things these laying POS’ have said since this shit show strarted
