‘Something ain’t Right!’ Diamond and Silk push back against sudden coronavirus racial narrative
April 8, 2020 | Tom Tillison
Only a small number of states have released information on the racial breakdown of those afflicted with the coronavirus, but early indications show black Americans are getting hit harder than other groups.
The issue was addressed Tuesday at the White House briefing, with President Trump acknowledging that African-Americans are disproportionately getting sick and even dying of the Chinese virus COVID-19.
“We’re doing everything in our power to address this challenge,†the president said. “It’s a tremendous challenge. It’s terrible.â€
Dr. Anthony Fauci, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, said blacks are more likely to have underlying health conditions that increase the risk of a “bad outcome†from the virus, such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and asthma.
“It’s not that they are getting infected more often. It’s that when they do get infected, their underlying medical conditions … wind them up in the ICU,†he said
excerpt:
A second tweet from Diamond and Silk may add some clarity — it shows Dr. Deborah Birx explaining that if a person in the U.S contaminated with coronavirus dies from an underlying cause, that death is attributed to the virus.
In other words, a person who dies with the virus, but not from the virus, is still being counted as a COVID-19 death — meaning the numbers can’t be trusted.

.@DiamondandSilk were one of the first to question the data & the high rise in the number of deaths.
If what Dr. Birx is saying is true, then that means that the numbers are being inflated. This is what's causing fear & panic.
We keep telling y'all that something ain't right!
