From Thomas DiLorenzo:

"The CDC says that 23,000 Americans have died from the flu since last September.  Yawn.  Ho hum.

Around 6 PM today the TV news cited another CDC statistic that 400 Americans have died from the coronavirus.  Emergency!  Suspend the Constitution — Permanently!  Declare Martial Law!  Stop the economy — Now!!  Stay in the house — or else!  Shut up and take your Masters’ orders!  Rev up the printing presses!  Call out the National Guard!  Imprison all dissenters!!

Here’s another interesting tidbit:  The Italian version of the CDC says that just under 50% of those who had “died from the coronavirus” had at least three pre-existing diseases such as cancer, heart disease, lung disease, etc. The average age of such Italian disease victims is 80.5.  Around 25% had at least two such diseases.  Nevertheless, they are claiming that they died from coronavirus alone.  0.8% of Italians who died from the coronavirus had no pre-existing serious diseases."

Also, there are msm reports that some people in the Trump administration are very worried that this lockdown could go too far and cause more damage to the economy than we could stand. Some are worried that the administration went too far when they allowed public health officials too much leeway.  Trump has even made several 'tweets' to that effect.  In my opinion, this is further proof that the president is not making the final decisions.
