An Interior Department spokesperson has confirmed that 35 employees have, as of Friday, died from COVID-19, the disease caused by the CCP virus.
After Interior Department Secretary Deb Haaland said in a video address taped earlier in the week that 34 staffers at the agency had died from COVID-19, the department’s communications director, Melissa Schwartz, wrote in a tweet Friday that one more person had died, bringing the tally to 35.
Schwartz, in her statement, also updated the number of agency employees who have, to date, contracted the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus, bringing that number up to over 4,000

Since we know how many have died while having a diagnosis of possible CCP virus, could we know how many of them were treated early with hydroxychloroquine, Ivermectin or other easily available, safe and effective treatment modes?

If you’re not going to treat an illness (Ivermectin), expect that your patient might die. Has the entire medical establishment in this country list its mind - or its soul?

If you’re not going to treat your patient (ivermectin), expect that he might die. Has the medical establishment lost its mind - or its soul?

I'd like to know the "died with" versus "died of" numbers. I was first made aware of this important distinction by a nurse in Colorado, last summer.
And, how many of those who died had gotten The Shot?

The real story is that many federal employees are generally obese, out-of-shape slugs resulting from their long hours spent idle in office cubicles. With all the associated health maladies of disuse and obesity, they are easy pickins for the 'vid.

With 70,000 employees, I’m not going to get too exercised that 34 have died of/with the Covid; especially without knowing the particulars of these cases as has been alluded to by previous posters.

The death rate in the U.S. is .0087 per year. There has been no statistical inconsistency between a Covid year. and any other year. If Covid were so deadly, we would see a bunch of Democrats dying, but we don't see any of that. Actually worse, the Democrats all live into their mid 90's.

Every time the left makes a claim, our only response should be: “Prove it.” I want the stats on every single one of these claims. All of the stats: height, weight, age, physical condition, vaccination status, what tests were used to determine the cause of death, if PCR, at what rate were they cycled, and why was it used as it has been determined by the CDC itself that it cannot differentiate between a coronavirus and the flu, etc. I’m sick to death of these claims being made without any backup, whatsoever.

How many people die in other years? Unless we have that comparison, this is meaningless.
We noticed here that during the lockdown, the number of obituaries in our newspaper was at about 50% of other years.

Gobs of useless and incomplete data as many have mentioned.
34 of how many?
Vaccinated?
Age?
Normal annual deaths of the huge agency?
Died with/of?
Co-morbidities?
Shoddy journalism

Sure, whatever they say. It's in print and on TV so it must be true.

There are approximately 70,000 Interior Dept. employees. If 4000 employees had Covid, that is about 5.7% of the staff. 35 dying of Covid (maybe) or something else out of 70,000 does not seem like much. Secretary Haaland is just carrying out the Biden administration talking points and fearmongering.
