Issues & Insights is run by seasoned journalists who were behind the Pulitzer Prize-winning IBD Editorials page (before it was summarily shut down). Our goal then and now is to bring our decades of combined journalism experience to help readers understand the top issues of the day. I&I is a completely independent operation, beholden to none, but committed to providing cogent, rational, data-driven, fact-based commentary that the nation so desperately needs.

And does this number reflect those that died from issues they had BEFORE Covid-19? Who knows? The numbers lie, we will never know for sure. Has anyone bothered to check years back at how many people died from past flu viruses, H1N1 for instance? Are those past numbers real? We cannot trust the CDC, Who or the politicians. I do feel awful about those who got/get this virus and those that have died but this happens every year. I am cautious in what I do and I do care about people, but, I am sick of the politics and lies we are getting. Truth has died; it died long before this virus so information on this virus is just a continuation of lies. Dr. Fauc, the little lying Gnome, should be run out of town. The media is responsible also, they gladly push this and usesit as click-bait. Michael, with respect, do your homework!
BTW the “in this together” ads are just pushing this lie and are dumb. It is time to see some up-beat and how wonderful this country is ads.
