Brief Introduction to Video-17

Del Bigtree of The Highwire provides a short, concise, insightful explanation for why New York City showed a demonstrable spike in the overall death rate above what was, based on past averages, statistically expected. According to Del Bigtree, the primary reason for the spike in deaths in New York City is iatrogenic in nature. In other words, a very large segment of the leadership in the city's and state's public health system -- involving certain doctors, administrators, and political figures -- appeared to have collectively panicked and began to pursue a set of procedures (including sending sick people into assisted living and nursing home facilities ... a highly vulnerable population) that unnecessarily led to the death of many individuals who might not otherewise have died if more intelligent, appropriate, and effective procedures had been pursued. The spike in deaths began after a lockdown was declared (not before that point) and after problematic forms of treatment were being pushed by the people in charge of the city's official response to a malady that appears to have been misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and mishandled again and again. Whatever the problematic -- and, possibly, lethal -- properties of Sars-CoV-2 might, or might not, be, nonetheless, all too frequently, the manner of responding to, and treating, the purported disease has often been far more lethal than whatever danger might be entailed by the alleged disease itself.
