Fumento Caught Lying
Apparently this best selling author either can’t copy and paste or has again proven himself to be a liar:
Original Post: By your numbers, SARS had an overall mortality rate of approximately 9%. Since other respiratory ailments generally run at less than 1%, even in the elderly, that one factor alone warrants considerable concern
Fumento’s site: By your numbers, SARS had an overall mortality rate of approxinmately (sic) 9%. Since other respiratory ailments generally run at less than 1% (sic), even in the elderly, that one factor alone warrants considerable concern – Emphasis Added
So, in addition to being a sub-par writer who is poor at research and a jerk, we can now conclude that he is also a liar.
Rich has more.
Remember, he’s a best selling author and syndicated columnist and I’m just like some guy, you know.
