    It's amazing you ignore any information that comes from Twitter you don't like, simply because it comes from Twitter and you don't like it.

    Note, please don't post any Tweets ever again, as they aren't reliable. (I can list plenty of tweets you've posted in the last week alone, I'm sure).

    It is not informative to you, it’s a narrative for you. There’s a big difference. Cherry picking two like statistics to imply a cause is sophomoric. Come on.

    It’s actual very interesting that the Spanish had worse outcomes for people in the primes of their lives than for the younger and older populations.

    COVID certainly is a pandemic. As a matter of fact, it is devastating our life expectancy because it is so serious.

    No, the chart was informative. It further enforces the narrative which I believe to be true - that lockdowns aren't the solution. You don't like it because it challenges your narrative. That's really what this is about.

    These clowns see NYT, reporters, official sources, and scientists using twitter and try to portray Joe Schmo w/Excel as equivalent.

    It's the online tabloid publishing effect. They see the NY Post or the Daily Mail have a website and can no longer differentiate it from WaPo because it's not next to the snicker bars at checkout.

    You use nonsense from Twitter and Blogs as your primary source -- trying to claim the charts & information is factual -- usually it is complete bullshiat.

    If you review my postings which include a Tweet you will find that any Tweet I post falls generally into one of these categories:
    • As evidence of what a politician or commentator tweeted.
    • Reference to an article from a mainstream media source.
    • Mocking a person or situation (cartoons / quips / etc.)
    • A source of first-hand video of an event.
    • Supporting evidence of what an article is stating (tweets that are embedded in an article).

    Spanish Flu killed healthy middle aged people back in 1918...average age of death was 28 when life expectancy was 56?
    Covid kills people at life expectancy age (I believe average age of death is 81, which is life expectancy..)...
    and importantly, it kills people who are already sick...
    therefore, it is not a pandemic.
