Before I start I must ask, why is she working for a major newspaper?
Linda of Q babbled, "President Joe Biden, in a prime-time address Thursday night, exaggerated elements of the coronavirus pandemic along with his, and his predecessor’s, response to it. Here’s a fact-check."
WHAT BIDEN SAID: “A year ago we were hit with a virus that was met with silence and spread unchecked, denials for days, weeks, then months.”
This is exaggerated. It is true that President Donald Trump downplayed the severity of the coronavirus pandemic for months. But he was not exactly silent and did not fail to respond completely. One year ago, on March 12, 2020, Trump delivered an address from the Oval Office acknowledging the threat and announced new travel restrictions on much of Europe.
Linda Qui lied and is playing word games: Trump really was silent and actually lied regarding the known dangers of the virus. Talk to Bob Woodward about that Linda. He also silenced Fauci and others in his administration including his flunky Surgeon General and his boot-licker Dr Brix. He also called the virus a hoax and said it would magically go away. I suppose he was listening to Kenneth Copeland.
In Trump's remarks from the Oval Office he was reading something a person with an adult vocabulary had written for him. Trump later went on to say that by April 2020 the virus would magically disappear when he knew it would not. He certainly silenced the truth.

WHAT BIDEN SAID: “As of now, total deaths in America, 527,726. That’s more deaths than in World War I, World War II, the Vietnam War and 9/11 combined.”
This is exaggerated. According to estimates from the Department of Veterans Affairs, a total of 392,393 died in combat in those three wars. Combined with the 2,977 people who died in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, that figure would be indeed smaller than the coronavirus death toll Biden cited. It would also be lower than the 529,000 death figure tracked by The New York Times. But factoring in deaths that occurred in service but outside of combat, the toll from the three wars (more than 610,000) would be higher than the current total number of virus-related deaths Biden cited.
Linda Q has her numbers wrong and is presenting them dishonestly. People die in wars from non combat causes just as they would if they were not in a war. Counting those deaths as war deaths IS misleading. Linda is the one being misleading and if she's to stupid to know it fire her. By the time this virus is under control its death toll will exceed all the American deaths in WW-1, WW-2, the American Civl War, the Korean war and Vietnam. With the variants, anti-vaxxers and the Trumpanzee mentality COVID-19 remain endemic for years to come and there will be hot spots all over the red state.
Wars ranked by U.S. combat deaths
| Rank | War | Years | Deaths |
| 1 | World War II | 1941–45 | 291,557 |
| 2 | American Civil War | 1861–65 | 214,938 |
| 3 | World War I | 1917–18 | 53,402 |
| 4 | Vietnam War | 1955–75 | 47,434 |
WHAT BIDEN SAID: “Two months ago this country didn’t have nearly enough vaccine supply to vaccinate all or anywhere near all of the American public. But soon we will.”
This is misleading. By the end of last year, the Trump administration had ordered at least 800 million vaccine doses that were expected for delivery by July 31, 2021, the Government Accountability Office reported. That included vaccines undergoing clinical trials as well as those not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration. According to Kaiser Health News, that would have been enough to vaccinate 200 million people with authorized vaccines, and more than enough for 400 million once all the vaccines were cleared for use. The current U.S. population is roughly 330 million. And, contrary to Biden’s suggestions, both administrations deserve credit for the current state of the vaccine supply.
Linda of Q is being misleading again: Biden's statement is 100% factually correct when he said. “Two months ago this country didn’t have nearly enough vaccine supply to vaccinate all or anywhere near all of the American public. But soon we will.” Linda is again being misleading.
Trump promised 20 million vaccinations by the end of 2020 but at the end of 2020 only 4 million Americans were vaccinated. Trump's Operation Warp Speed was should have been called Operation Snail Pace.
Linda of Q quotes Biden: WHAT BIDEN SAID: “When I took office 50 days ago, only 8% of Americans after months, only 8% of those over the age of 65 had gotten their first vaccination. Today, that number is 65%.”
Linda of Q lies: This is misleading. When Biden took office on Jan. 20, the vaccination effort had just begun, after the FDA authorized Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine for emergency use in mid-December.
Linda of Q is the one being misleading: Compared to other countries that deployed the vaccines such Bahrain, the UK, UAE and Israel far outpaced the US while Trump was in power. Things turned around quickly when Biden took over. Biden got us caught up. Which country has vaccinated the most people against COVID-19?
Linda needs to have a chat with unbiased public health expert Dr John Campbell of the UK to get the real facts on the actual vaccination numbers. Linda is typical of lazy lame stream media who parrots the the narrative the CDC and the WHO. If that doesn't sink in Dr Duc Voung of the USA would be happy to give her a great big giant steaming fact enema.
The UK has purchased 6 different vaccines while the US is offering 3, two of which may not be effective on the variants.
Medical Mafia thugs put out false reports claiming the $3 Oxford Astra Zenica vaccine causes blood clots. It can't because it is a modified adnovirus that is harmless to human. It also has the possibility of preventing some forms of the common cold.
If Linda of Q and any reporter trusts anything the Medical Mafia tells them and publishes is they are complicit in the deaths caused by the medical industry. The Medical industry is nearly 20% of the US GDP and the leading cause of preventable death and injury. Read the book Death by Medicine. It looks like the Medical Mafia will now cure the next disease since polio.
President Biden would be overly polite to lying Linda but on the upside any Trumpers who are literate enough to partially read her New York Times hit piece will help spread the hoax virus narrative to others of their ilk.
Linda of Q needs to know some basic facts about COVID-19. When COVID-19 was decimating Italy, the WHO and the CDC knew the RO number and knowing the RO number they knew this virus was transmitted by airborne droplets but the trained seals of mainstream media continued to release contradictory and misleading information. The CDC, The WHO and the FDA and the rest of the Medical Mafia played dumb. They knew the RO number early on. They knew how the virus was spread and that is was highly transmissible. They knew with great accuracy how quickly the virus was spreading and what the proportion of deaths and cases would be by delaying mask wearing. They played dumb and their media spokesdroids continued to muddy the waters with more and more conflicting information. They also knew that the longer they waited to be honest the more variants would spring up. They knew if they delayed genomic testing they could keep the news about new variants.
Had reporters done their jobs and spoken with public health experts who were independent of the money grubbing Medical Mafia the US would probably have less than 10,000 deaths in the blue state and 250,000 in the red states.
The WHO and the CDC knew that people high levels of zinc and vitamin D were more likely to survive the virus. The CDC, FDA, WHO, and AMA were mum. The WHO, FDA and the CDC knew that people who had received the MMR and MMRV vaccines when they were kids had some immunity to the virus which probably explains the lower death rate among people born after 1971. Had family doctors shown some integrity they would have vaccinated older folks but instead the listened to the FDA and CDC malarkey.
The CDC, FDA, AMA and WHO knew that the Oxford Astra Zenica vaccine was more effective than the Moderna and the Pfizer. The CDC, FDA, AMA and the WHO also know that mRNA vaccines are not tested long term.
Linda of Q is just one example of lazy sloppy cookie cutter corporate owned chicken shit journalism. She's bot doing as little as she can to get paid more than she is worth for a newspaper that is a shell of what it was 30 years ago.

Linda of Q parrots CDC, Moreover, <----- what a stupid word the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that people between ages 65 and 74 receive the vaccine only after it has been administered to health care workers, residents of long-term care facilities, frontline essential workers and people over 75.
It’s also worth noting that about 62.4% of people over 65 have received one vaccine dose, but just 32.2% are fully vaccinated, according to the CDC.
Linda Q is good at copy and pasting CDC data but she fails to mention that the CDC was "confused" about masked wearing and feigned ignorance about knowing how far a cough, sneeze, shout or conversation droplets would travel. This was something known for 100 years.
Linda lies when she said that 62% of people over 65 received a vaccine. AARP shot down that lie.
When Will Older Americans Get the COVID-19 Vaccine?
Mar 09, 2021 · In Florida vaccines have technically been available to people 65 and older for more than two months. In Connecticut residents 55 and older are eligible for vaccination. In New Mexico, meanwhile, residents younger than 75 still can't get a vaccine based solely on their age. All of these state's plans are evolving in real time.
Tell Linda of Q, Japan has had 7000 COVID-19 deaths compared to 545,324 deaths in the US as of March 12th 2021 3:20 PM EST according to Worldometers.
Linda of Q herself is ignorant about the real COVID deaths numbers compared to the reported numbers. Linda of Q is also has not taken into account the under reporting of COVID cases and deaths in Texas, Florida and other red states. If she were to do that then Biden comparison to war deaths is even more relevant. Clearly, Linda of Q didn't or can't use critical thinking. Either way, tell her to find a job that she can do.
