The news from Sweden isn't good. My guess is they should have closed their borders in late August to shut off the tourist wave. They did flatten their curve for almost a year.
The real news comes from Cameroon and India, where one interpretation is they don't test, and another, ( not exclusive ) is HCQ is effective.
So everyone that jumped on the "Trump said HCQ is promising, so since we hate him, we ban HCQ" is guilty of mass murder. That doesn't mean they're not also mass murdering monsters who want a Great Reset to the Old Ways of Aristocratic Rule. Those seem to be seriously overlapping on the Venn diagram of Evil.
I look forward to an unbiased scientific study of dealing with this Chinese plague. Let me know when that's done. Or possible.
Nope. That's 4-6% that the vaccine is probably ineffective for. Useless, not bad. It's not a 6% Death rate.
We won't know the fatality rates for the vaccines until the Mayor of Seattle orders mass vaccination at gun point. ( And those shot resisting will, or course, be listed as Covid fatalities ) Let us know if it kills you.
My Opinion is that we should scientifically test the assumptions made about controlling this plague. Simply, some things are effective, others, not, and one example is anecdotal, not science.
So, since the most popular response appears to be from Cuomo in His State, measuring popularity by positive reaction to press conference performance, we should test Cuomo's response for effectiveness, with a test group with varied risk factors.
Congress has old fat sick and young fit healthy members, excellent tax payer funded healthcare, and an in place record keeping system. So lock them down so they can't leave, forbid visitors, fill all available empty space with sick and infectious Covid-19 victims, and see what happens.
Vaccine is good for 94% of people and bad for 6% of people, coronavirus is OK for 99.5% of people and bad for 0.5% of people.
Another words vaccine is more dangerous than coronavirus.
This is a prime example of what's wrong with this whole situation.
People. Don't. Understand. The. Math.
They also don't understand the English language. Or, their Russian-English Google translator isn't working. "In other words", not "Another words".
They don't understand what an effectiveness rating means. Look it up. (hint: the answer is 5 posts up)
They don't understand the difference between a "case", and a "positive test". Look it up. Use a medical text, not a mass-media "explanation".
They don't understand the amplification process utilized in the testing process, and why there's a difference in the results you'll get with a 30x amplification, versus a 45x amplification. Look it up. Again - use a medical text.
They don't understand that a 99.969% recovery rate means that FOUR people out of every ten THOUSAND people - people with the virus, not people in the public at large - may have severe effects from this virus. That 9,996 people will recover JUST FINE, with no lasting effects. That, is third-grade math.
They don't understand that there are no "excess deaths" in 2020 compared to any year in the last 5+ years, nor do they understand the term "excess deaths". Look that one up, too.
People are stupid, and they're content being stupid, because finding facts takes too much effort. The quote above is a prime example of that.
And the Democrat Socialists are counting on that.
They thrive on stupid, lazy people who don't have the inclination, nor the ability, to do anything when it comes to situations like this.
They're counting on it, and that's why they've co-opted the media, and big tech, to only feed us what they want us to hear.
Their goal truly is to make everyone "equal" under Socialism. They just don't advertise that the equality? Is going to be at the BOTTOM of the scale. We're all going to be stupid, fat, lazy, uneducated, unemployed, on welfare, and unable to defend ourselves. Poor, sickly, weak, and stupid - just the way they want us. But hey - equality, right? Equality for us...but not for them. They're going to live the high life, taking bribes, taking our money, taking our food, taking our goods...for themselves, and leaving us to rot. Don't believe me? Look at Venezuela. Look at Cuba. Look at the old Soviet Union. It's a theme.
No thank you. Not for this guy.
If you want to be a moron, go for it. But stay home, and don't subject the rest of us - who can think for ourselves - to your stupid way of life. Lock yourself in your basement, stay off the computer, stay off our forum, and live off of GrubHub. If you're not going to contribute to society, do us all a favor and stay the hell out of it.
And from the WHO, echoes of The New Normal mantra of the First Communist President. ( don't expect life to get better, ever, again. )
Remember the bad old days? Movie theaters and late night diner food? Those evil days when your neighbors didn't have a hotline to call to inform on you to the police for not Obeying your Masters? Or not praising them with enough enthusiasm? Walking a dog in a park without a Police Drone following you to facilitate your arrest at gun point?
Yeah, just forget all that. It's not coming back. That's the official United Nations Goal, so it's a Feature, not a Bug.
The clickbait story is just like the state of Maryland. Our illustrious governor announced at his last shutdown conference (where he rolled us back to increased restrictions, just in time for the holidays), that Maryland hospitals "were nearing capacity" and we "had to stem the flow of infections before our hospitals were overwhelmed".
Maryland has 8.77 million residents.
At the time of his announcement, Maryland hospitals had a whopping 1,001 beds with COVID patients...and 256 of them were in ICU.
Statewide.
If THAT is "overwhelming" to our hospital system? We have much larger problems than a virus.
There is no excuse for reporting like this in an age when anyone can check this tool in seconds and see the actual figures.
Except they know that people are stupid. And lazy. And...they won't do their own research, because that's too much like work. Lazy assholes would rather be spoon-fed "information", and just go along with it.
And, that's what they're counting on. Because weak (and weak-MINDED) people are easier to control.
As for this:
Dr David Nabarro suggested that social distancing and masks were something that would have to continue as a way of “treating this virus with respect.”
Respect? For WHAT, a 0.04% chance that something bad will happen to you if you catch it?? FU(K THAT. This thing is no more dangerous than any other virus that's come along in the history of mankind. If it was engineered...they should fire the staff. It's a dud. The marketing campaign, though? THAT seems to be working just like designed...
As the next wave of whatever, flu, today, arrives, racist leftist policies promote a higher death count for "people of color" by exempting them from mandatory vaccination. ( never mind the authoritarian or common sense arguments vile Conservatives have on the subject of mandatory vaccination. The leftist Leadership at Cornell lives in a world where the Authoritarian Power is the Norm )
If you have hatred instead of compassion for your fellow humans, as Leftists/Marxists are trained, this is great news. You kill off the people you hate because of skin color. Higher death rates among minorities fuels your Projection Lies that Trump White Supremacist groups are responsible. ( but not you, who is actually guilty ) The higher death rate helps with your narrative that the peons Must Obey their Masters. Flu kills, you know!
And, by openly declaring your racism, camouflaged by "deep concern" for the ones you hate being bothered by such past horrors as the Tuskegee Experiments and your own lies about police racism, you Virtue Signal how Woke You Are while privately, & at your segregated country club, laugh at the tools/fools dying because of the fear you fed, leading them to voluntarily endanger themselves.
And, of course, such "you don't need white supremacist vaccines" propaganda will apply to the new Covid-19 vaccines as you Blame Republicans for the plague and Racism for telling the truth it came from CCP China. ( The sponsors of the Harris/Biden* coup/regime. )
Really, it's a win - win for Satan across the board.

Glad to see the India thing appears to be environmental (sort of), as opposed to viral. Not glad to see people sick...but glad it isn't turning out to be COVID2.0.
What a crock of alarmist shit. I know...consider the source...
The point is that the Supreme Court should be on the side of saving lives and urging rational, science-based behavior by all, especially at this moment of maximum peril to the population.
Maximum peril? Seriously? I am so tired of this horror-story bullshit attitude about this virus. 99.969% recovery rate is NOT "maximum peril". 99.969% MORTALITY rate would be...but this isn't that.

Coronavirus is age reductions virus. Younger have significantly more chances to survive, but after 60 years death rate drastically increases. We just need to admit the new human maximum age and move on.
Posted on Wednesday, December 09, 2020 - 09:48 am:
}death rate drastically increases
Bullshit. Go peddle your fear somewhere else.
Over 60, your recovery rate "plummets" from 99.969%, to a horrifying 99.5%. Those numbers are according to the CDC. Not the media, not CNN, but the actual MEDICAL organization.
Posted on Wednesday, December 09, 2020 - 09:52 am:
99.969%, to a horrifying 99.5% is 1613% increase which is pretty drastically. For the same period of time you have 1 dead under 60 and 16 deaths after 60

Illa - If you insist on being part of BadWeB please try to be less insensitive. You’re not stupid, your XB shows that, so quit acting like a little moron.
