Chattering Teeth Blog News - At today's White House coronavirus task force press conference, Dr. Deborah Birx said that the release of large swaths of the country's prison population due to the coronavirus will cause a temporary spike in the official death tally.
Dr. Birx: "If someone is murdered by a prisoner who was early-released due to the outbreak of COVID-19, even if neither perpetrator nor victim have the underlying virus, we are counting that as a COVID-19 death."
This seems legit, since studies show that the recidivism rate of prisoners released hovers near 80%. With the purposeful destruction of the economy, most will not have an opportunity for rehabilitation even if they wanted too.
The good news is that the models now show a flattening of the prison shiv curve with this release.
I'm thinking they can increase their Covid 19 body count, if they add the criminals shot by armed citizens. It not only solves the problem of overcrowded correctional facilities, it's cheaper, and the extra funds can help fund a new bureaucratic agency.
