9 months of almost constant attention to the virus and Fauci really hasn't come up with anything new since April, and all that amounts to is "wear a mask". The guy talks all the time but never really says anything of importance. He can't say why a drug or vitamin may or may not be beneficial. For being an expert, you would think he could at least tell people to take zinc and vitamin d supplements because duh.
The 1% blunder: How a simple but fatal math mistake by US Covid-19 experts caused the world to panic

Raw numbers are just a scare tactic people use. Sometimes more for themselves than for others. Here's a raw number for you: at the current rate, it will take 1600 years for covid to kill everyone in the United States. Still sound scary?
The old saying follow the money, vitamins and zinc you can buy over the counter, hyd is cheap. It was reported earlier in August the I believe it was Italy you could buy hyd over the counter in January then they pulled it. A coincidence? Australia was working on how to get ivomectin for humans to use. It kills the virus. For those who don’t know it’s a wormer delicer for cattle and other animals
To be fair most of those were suicides and "protest" fatalities listed as Covid-19 deaths.
You haven't read his latest? We're not one with nature. Guy should be fired immediately.

I really hope that isn't a legit article. Thats like when people were saying ebola outbreaks were caused by cutting down trees.
Better yet....of the nine people I know that have tested positive, seven had families. Not ONE OTHER person in their family got it. Not one. This is not a statement of support for Trump or Biden, but it does raise serious questions as to just how terribly contagious Covid is when people show little to no symptoms. That, coupled with many news outlets having an agenda and using Covid as a political tool to push that agenda....and you get a large amount of the population to be pretty skeptical of what they are hearing.
original estimates for fatalities from COVID ranged as high as 3 million.
Because Mexico accurately reports deaths? Germany, Canada and France didn't have governors of their most densely populated states FORCING nursing homes to admit COVID positive patients.
The most prescient point of the article is the fact that since we have been testing asymptomatic people for months, we will never really know how deadly or contagious this virus is. There is literally nothing we can learn from logging an asymptomatic person as a positive case because there could be 1000 more asymptomatic cases that don't get logged.
it's a moratorium on our way of life more than anything else
the greatest response, even in hindsight, doesn't safe half
it's a shame and a terrible tragedy, but wearing a mask or sheltering in place doesn't make up for the extra 60+lbs the avg person is schlepping around on a daily basis
Only they can ruin the lives of 40 million people.
The $10 Trillion question is why were mistakes made with this virus that weren't made with others? Why have decades or centuries worth of medical standards been eschewed for "corona-science"? Why do some states continue to mismanage the situation instead of adjusting?
Never mind that deaths are counted differently in different countries.
Yes people disagree that NYC should have locked down. NYC seemingly did everything wrong. Their lockdown destroyed their local economy and and exasperated the spread of the virus.
Here's the non-russian version.

Yeah, already covered previously. A Canadian actuary who misread a paper, tried to scribble some lines and came out with the bold claim that they possibly used data incorrectly, while misreading the data he was quoting.
Ruin their lives? We’ve been told by people on this board that things are normal, anyone can get a job who wants one and un-employment numbers aren’t a big deal.
And besides, the rate for those over 25 who are unemployed is 7.6%, meaning people under 25 are more likely to be unemployed. They have decades to make up for this, so who’s lives are “ruined”? Why didn’t they just save up for a rainy day?
better than falling asleep with you know who... whether you like Trump it is a fact that his entire presidency has been attacked more than any president (starting even before he became president with wire taps). One thing he says and I agree with NO president should have that happen
I'm not so sure that any govt action short of absolute quarantine of citizens abroad on Alcatraz and such places coming back could have had any different of an outcome.
Of course by the time China let anyone know what was going down many had already made their way back home.
Novel virus that kills the elderly, no offense to the elderly, and barely scratches anyone else isn't what most people think of as a SHTF situation. Just like how people said there weren't WMDs in Iraq..there were WMDs in Iraq, they gassed the Kurds plenty enough before. Its just that the WMDs weren't nukes. Not what people were expecting yeah?
If anything we should be starting up all industry production not represented here in the States, and bringing industry home from China.
If leftists are going to use this, and all other events or non events as political siege weapons, then how about trying to push for a stronger America, not a stronger leftist position in America? See the difference?
Probably not. My money is you still won't get it.
Edit: spelling check

180k dead isn't nothing, but how many of these were one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel?
Read this and perhaps your aim may be steered differently: https://www.localmemphis.com/articl...tive/522-bcd8c6e1-5d75-4e07-af99-ed7babed909b
BINGO! Dude’s FIRST act was to advice us NOT to wear masks all the while knowing it was a lie- Hippocratic oath, dr Fauci?
Deaths (all cause) above historical averages
Very conservative #s as data include Jan-March when C-19 deaths were minimal
a lot more humans seem to be dying in 2020

From the Article:
"Which means that we’ve had all the deaths we were ever going to get. And which also means that lockdown achieved, almost precisely nothing with regard to Covid. No deaths were prevented."
I really think some people are addicted to this fear-porn.
That is an obviously inflated number given the CDC's guidelines for what should be coded a Covid death and the financial incentive given to code deaths as Covid caused.
Not to mention that CDC's revised numbers showing only 6% as not having co-morbidities and the average co-morbidities at 2.6 with advanced age also being a major factor.
That people continue to quote that as a legitimate number is crazy.
take COVID out of it and just look at deaths regardless of cause - huge increase in 2020 based on yearly averages
Many lives ruined and shortened by this monstrosity of an overreaction.

How many of the increased number can be attributed to the shutdown rather than the actual virus? Suicides, people not going in for treatment, overdoses, people in nursing homes dying due to isolation and failure to thrive. The shutdown is going to kill more than the virus and probably already has.
"Revolver News set out to commission a study to do precisely that: to finally quantify the net damage of the lockdowns in terms of a metric known as “life-years.” "
interesting stuff ... will you please post the journal where where this study was published?
I tried to search by the authors but ran into this roadblock
Revolver News is very proud to present a rigorous study on such an important topic ... the authors have chosen for the time being to represent themselves pseudonymously.
That rate has slowed over the last several weeks. Its very plausible that a large portion of those excess deaths are people that likely would have died later this year or next year anyway. The average age of death from/with covid is the same as our average life expectancy, so statistically it is irrelevant by that metric.take COVID out of it and just look at deaths regardless of cause - huge increase in 2020 based on yearly averages
