Pinkerton: The Case for Demanding Covid-19 Reparations from Communist China

As of this writing, the American death toll from Covid stands at more than 628,000. And according to Florida-based Jack Bernstein, Injury Attorneys, the average settlement for a wrongful death ranges between $500,000 and $1 million. So if we were to apply that cost-range and multiply it by the number of deaths in the U.S., we’d have a dollar total of somewhere between $314 billion and $628 billion.  o maybe the communist regime in Beijing owes us that much.  

But there’s more. Let’s not forget that the U.S. has suffered more than 35 million cases of the disease—that’s more than 10 percent of the national population. Many of those cases, of course, required hospitalization and even intensive care for days or even weeks. The direct cost of coronavirus healthcare, plus the indirect cost of pain and suffering, reaches into the many billions and even trillions.  

Furthermore, even for the non-infected, the economic damage of Covid-19 was enormous. In the second quarter of last year, the gross domestic product of the U.S. fell by a Depression-like 32.4 percent. And while the economy has since recovered, few escaped personal trauma, and many have suffered lasting financial damage. 

Indeed, the economic carnage has been worldwide. According to a recent study from the liberal-leaning Brookings Institution, in 2020 alone, the virus clipped seven percent off world GDP, which is to say, a planetary loss of more than $6 trillion. Brookings also notes that in response to the pandemic, the governments of the world injected about $16 trillion in cash into their economies. Given the state of emergency last year, at least some of that infusion might have been necessary, and yet as we are already seeing, all that Keynesian cash will increase inflation. 

By every possible measure, Covid-19 was enormously destructive. And what if it turns out that Covid-19 was not the result of some terrible act of God, but rather, the result of laboratory negligence or even the result of some sort of contrived weaponization?

  1. Add the clinton foundation, soros, lodges and the other luciferian marxist deep swamp fronts that colluded with china. These evil men have laid the ground work for the mark of the beast and the destruction of the USA. A COUNTRY BASED ON GODs truths.

  2. The entire world needs to go to the world court and sue the hell out of those damn Chinese for releasing this virus.

  3. PLEASE start differentiating deaths ( as the CDC did — THAT is the GOVERNMENT, you know).

    Dying WITH Covid and dying FROM Covid are far different results.
    If you are 200 pounds overweight, with diabetes and you are 85 years old, you may have HAD Covid, but Covid didn’t kill you.
    Even the government’s own science-based (!) authorities admit THAT.

    Stop spreading fear and Bulls**.
    We have enough people living on their knees, waiting for a POLITICIAN to tell them what is “safe” for them to do, like they actually give a sh** about whether you live or die. THEY DON’T. If they did, they would do a LOT MORE to help people who are REALLY in need of protection.

    FEAR and confusion and deception. It helps them rule and control.
    And you fall for it like a dog waiting for a treat.

  4. China Never yet Punished !!!! If this were the 40’s or 50’s it would have been an ACT OF WAR for Covid deaths !!!!!
