Where did the money go??-----Feds Blew $100 Billion on Extra Hospital Beds, Got FEWER Hospital Beds
...Among the law’s many, many very, very expensive provisions was $100,000,000,000 (that’s one million dollars, one hundred thousand times) “designed to provide an influx of money to hospitals and other health care entities responding to the coronavirus pandemic.”
...Guess what we got for our money?
Would you believe… fewer hospital beds?
Except:
In case that chart is too small to easily read, the US currently has about 50,000 fewer staffed hospital beds right now than we had in 2020.
But wait. From there it gets really weird:
Not one to take an anecdote as data, I looked into hospitals closing ICUs or reducing bed counts...Much more, read all!!

CDC director: Why no, we still can't tell correlation from causation in COVID statistics
"Why the hell not?
One of the most basic questions in any pandemic is true mortality rate.
“Do you know how many of the 836,000 deaths in the U.S. linked to COVID are from COVID or how many are with COVID but they had other comorbidities, do you have that breakdown?” Baier asked.
“Yes of course, with Omicron we’re following that very carefully. Our death registry, of course, takes a few weeks to collect and, of course, Omicron has just been with us for a few weeks, but those data will be forthcoming,” Walensky replied.
Ahem. The CDC’s data reporting website makes no such distinction at all...Read all!

BREAKDOWN: Basic Services And Supply Chains Are Rapidly Breaking Down All Over The Globe
"...Throughout the latter stages of 2022, I documented how basic services were breaking down all across the country, but this was a trend that was largely ignored by the mainstream media until now. Fear of the Omicron variant has taken things to an entirely new level, and at this point things have gotten so bad that even the mainstream media is full of stories about this crisis. For example, over the weekend this was one of the Drudge Report’s main headlines: “NATIONWIDE BREAKDOWN OF SERVICES”. The following is an excerpt from that story…
Ambulances in Kansas speed toward hospitals then suddenly change direction because hospitals are full. Employee shortages in New York City cause delays in trash and subway services and diminish the ranks of firefighters and emergency workers. Airport officials shut down security checkpoints at the biggest terminal in Phoenix and schools across the nation struggle to find teachers for their classrooms.
The current explosion of omicron-fueled coronavirus infections in the U.S. is causing a breakdown in basic functions and services — the latest illustration of how COVID-19 keeps upending life more than two years into the pandemic.
This is happening almost everywhere, and it is deeply affecting industry after industry...Read all!!
