that is propaganda.... We are not going to have millions of deaths if we only have the low risk groups out. What fucking bullshit scare leftist propaganda crap are you presenting here? millions of death... Fucking A are you insane. 1. First of all they speculate 70 to 90 percent need to be infected to get herd immunity after telling us they don't really know the R0. (patently absurd given what we are seeing in the data) I have seen studies say it could take as little 40 percent among healthy populations and could be much lower with good testing and tracing among those healthy groups. (I think its because healthy people are infectious a shorter period of time and don't go around slamming health care providers.) 2. at least they agree herd immunity is possible... "It’s likely COVID-19 confers at least some immunity, though. For one, there are no confirmed cases of someone getting COVID-19 twice. Early reports from South Korea drew a lot of attention after patients tested positive for the virus again weeks after having recovered, but researchers later said that dead virus fragments from the original infection likely triggered the positive tests, rather than a second infection. One early study from China — which has not yet been peer reviewed, so take it with an extra grain of salt — also measured neutralizing antibodies in 94 percent of patients." 3. The article is horribly slanted... propaganda... We are not talking about the entire population and stats leading to millions of deaths. We are arguing we should have already let the low risk group out. The death rate among younger healthy people with no co morbidities is very very low. Millions of deaths? What a fucking absurd lie. We are potentially talking fewer deaths than suicides if you let the low risk people out. You article is a disgusting piece of propaganda. Exactly what you would expect from a left wing site like that. 4. Finally we are already opening up and we are not seeing what they warn us about.
So Denmark after locking down early and few deaths has had schools open a month. I'm a quarter Danish of course so of course they did it better. Very informative on how its been done. The kid wearing the mirrored sunglasses is surprising. https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-europe-52649919/coronavirus-inside-a-reopened-primary-school-in-the-time-of-covid-1 Denmark 537 deaths as of today. Sweden 3529 Hopefully a picture of a child won't attract wildforchild.
Snarky does appear to be threatening from safety.. Reminds me of something Gothe said about cowards. We need a more full contact Internet.
jem asked "Please link to the WHO saying the only course to effective herd immunity is vaccination." I provided the link proving conclusively that "WHO calls herd immunity without vaccine ‘dangerous'" including commentary from WHO stating vaccine is the only effective path forward. Why can't you do basic things like read the thread and stay in context? In other news...the China-loving head of WHO is shortly gone. I expect we will be funding WHO again shortly. World Trade Organization boss steps down before the end of his term https://www.foxnews.com/world/world-trade-organization-boss-steps-down-before-term-ends The head of the World Trade Organization (WTO) said Thursday he is stepping down early, becoming the first in his position to do so in the 25-year-history of the trade body. “This is a decision that I do not take lightly,” Roberto Azevedo, a 62-year-old Brazilian, told a special meeting of WTO delegations, according to reports by The Associated Press. “It is a personal decision -- a family decision -- and I am convinced that this decision serves the best interests of this organization.” (More at above url)
That shouldn't be a problem because according to the WHO the virus does not spread from person to person. "Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in #Wuhan, #China," Its your source, not mine.
Yeah.... go dig up those ancient tweets.... of course we now know better. Why don't you provide a list of Trump's statements about the virus from January to mid-March.
I can dig up ancient threads where idiots like you were running around citing an inflated death rate and I nailed the death rate. Your analysis skills suck.
