How New York Hospitals created and "handled" so many deaths during the Death Spike of Spring 2020.

This is a response to an article by Jessica Hockett.

There Is Simply No Way New York City Hospitals Handled ~15K+ Extra Inpatient Deaths in Eleven Weeks; NYC OCME is Not Handling My FOI Request in a Timely Manner

1. New York hospitals cleared out their hospitals prior to the “surge”

When our surveillance team saw the development of a new virus in Wuhan, China, in January 2020, we began putting our emergency operation together. Many people think of China as the other side of the world, seven thousand miles from New York, but in our command center we think of it as a half-day plane ride. As we monitored from a distance, we pulled out the manual from our SARS experience that we had shared with the state and began to update contingency plans. We checked inventories and purchased additional supplies of PPE, ventilators, and other material. We acted absolutely as if it was happening, with complete dedication to getting as ready as we could get.

By February 2020, the news out of Italy was unsettling. Projections for our area were concerning, and then alarming. We accelerated our preparation and took a series of steps in anticipation of the virus’s arrival, and we did so well before we were mandated by the government to do anything. We:

discharged any patients who could safely recuperate at home;

The result of these moves, in just a matter of days, was that our hospitals had fewer non-COVID patients than ever before— two thousand empty beds in a system where we typically run at, and sometimes just over, 100 percent capacity. On the eve of the outbreak, our hallways were quiet, many rooms empty.

Page 30:

We went from normalcy to battle stations, to converting virtually our entire system into the country’s largest COVID-focused health system, where our emergency departments, medical surgical beds, and ICU beds were all packed with COVID-19 patients. Our hospitals had become COVID hospitals.

2. Hospitals created extra bed spaces

At the very early stages of the crisis, Governor Cuomo was pushing all health systems in the state to increase capacity by a minimum of 50 percent. He asked one of us (Michael Dowling) to team up with Ken Raske, head of the Greater New York Hospital Association, and to work with hospitals throughout the state to achieve that goal. In addition to that group, the governor asked us to coordinate actions with the major New York City systems including Mount Sinai, New York Presbyterian, NYU, Montehore, and Northwell. The leaders of those organizations would gather to confer on a conference call three times a week.

3. Northwell Health used “Urgent Care Centers”

One of the ways we kept the numbers in our emergency departments and inpatient units under control is that we were able to see seventy thousand patients in our Northwell Health-GoHealth Urgent Care Centers and many more patients in our other ambulatory locations.

A scene from inside Long Island Jewish Medical Center of Northwell Health:

Page xvii:

“Consider this scene that staff members faced each day, described by Dr. Lawrence Smith, Northwell physician in chief and dean of the Donald and Zucker School of Medicine.”

“In the hospital it is a very sad, stressful environment— almost surreal. I’ve been practicing medicine for a long time and I have never been in a hospital where (so many) patients are on ventilators completely sedated, completely paralyzed, not moving a muscle. Not a visitor in the entire hospital. Bodies lying bed to bed to bed, and the only noise in the room is the hum of the ventilators. And these patients never speak, never move, and yet they are all potential killers of the staff because they’re all shedding virus. I’ve been in ICUs and hospital wards for forty years now. I’ve never seen what the inside of Long Island Jewish Hospital looks like right now, with just endless rows of bodies that are alive, but they don’t move and there’s nobody there to tell you about them. The staff has never heard these people even speak in most cases because the speaking ended when they arrived in the emergency room. It’s surreal. It’s frightening.”

Do you think Dr. Lawrence Smith’s account is a fraudulent and staged account of how hospitals killed patients in large numbers?

Continuing, Page 97:

No on had seen death rates this high. Throughout our system, doctors and nurses were having exceptionally difficult end-of-life conversations with families whose loved ones were rapidly deteriorating on ventilators.

In many cases our doctors and nurses would connect with the family at home via FaceTime.

Page 97:

Dr. Lawrence Smith: They were on ventilators, stacked bed-to-bed in ICUs, paralyzed, sedated, never moved a muscle, never blinked, and had no relatives there to advocate for them. It became like a living morgue.

The most frustrating aspect of the crisis from a clinical perspective involved testing for the virus—or, more accurately, the inability to test on a broad basis. The word early on that came to Dr. Dwayne Breining, the head of Northwell laboratory, was that the FDA was taking a position that no tests from labs like ours would be approved because the CDC was setting up testing for the entire nation. This meant that the major manufacturers of medical testes were barred from developing and selling their own tests. When the CDC did release its test, it proved to be defective.

My comment: The CDC test returned 100% negative results to New York. Cuomo lobbied Mike Pence of the White House Coronavirus Task Force to allow New York to design and implement its own PCR test. High positive results followed. Hospitalizations followed the PCR tests. New York rapidly escalated PCR testing. Deaths followed hospitalizations due to the methods used in hospitals. It’s all very-well documented in press releases from the state of New York.

Dr. Lawrence Smith described deaths at Long Island Jewish Medical Center where they were using Ventilators, opioids, and tranquilizers.

Dr. Pierre Kory described the same thing at Beth Israel Medical Center in New York.

Link to Testimony: Dr. Pierre Kory says he watched ventilated, sedated, and paralyzed patients die every day.

I'm a lung specialist! I'm an ICU specialist! I've cared from more dying COVID patients than anyone can imagine. They're dying because they can't breathe. They can't breathe. They're on high flow oxygen delivery devices. They're on noninvasive ventilators and/or they're sedated and paralyzed and attached to mechanical ventilators that breathe for them. And I watch them every day. They die.

(Remdesivir was also likely used at Beth Israel Medical Center and Long Island Jewish Medical Center).

John Baez also noted that patients complained that they could not breath at Staten Island University Hospital of Northwell Health.

When the crisis was at its peak, I remember seeing one case after the other. People begging for their life, “I can’t breathe, I can’t breath.”

New York City Spring 2020: An Unsubstantiated Mass Casualty Event That Appears Fraudulent & Staged

Jessica Hockett: “Through further investigation, I realized certain factors I or others had assumed to be culprits or drivers of the death spike were ill-defined, inadequate, unsupported by available data, or fell short of being able to explain or contribute significantly to the toll. This included fear of going to the hospital,8 ventilators, the nursing home policy, remdesivir, and no antibiotics. Darker causes such as high doses of sedatives/paralytics, unilateral DNRs, withdrawing CPR, and high doses of oxygen came into focus - as did signs that the U.S. government (not China) was responsible for allowing, if not purposefully directing, those acts.”

We obviously disagree. I concur that the public deserves more and better data, but it is extremely clear that there was a mass homicide event in New York Hospitals and Nursing Homes in the Spring of 2020 in New York.
