Having watched the video, the main things that actually stuck with me was when they mentioned the impact of isolation on the community. Explicitly he mentions how molestation, spousal abuse were "up" and suicides were "spiking", and that for those affected by these problems "will be with them forever rather than a season". He asked the question, at what cost does a few deaths outweigh all these other social issues?
The other impact that isolation had (according to the Drs) is that it weakens your immune system. One of their arguments is that a few months could have a devastating effect on the immune system of healthy people and they were worried about the effects on the hospital system when isolation ended several months down the road.
Whether or not the Drs have ulterior motives on re-openinig their hospitals, shouldn't be a primo cause of calling someone a 'charlatan'.
They also explicitly mention how West Coast and East Coast was very different.
They were very explicit in mentioning how isolation was a correct course of action: Initially the virus was unknown & there was fear of it's effects and that all they had were models available. They cited sources that changed their projections downwards significantly just a few days after initial projections were released (I forget exactly who 'they' were)
They were explicit in mentioning that the data was now available on the spread rates and the death rates.
They also mentioned how the Drs everywhere were being encouraged to add cv19 as a cause of death to issues of "Co-morbidity". That is, in their experience, that all the deaths they saw were with people with serious health issues already. Again, they were ok in mentioning how East and West were different.
They also mentioned how Lowes was open, but a coffee shop was closed, which to them made no sense.
So, I while I understand that other Drs might be mortified by the testament made in the video, people should have the right to be heard. At the worst, it certainly made for interesting viewing while isolating!
- Hokusai 6y ago> few deaths 60,000 deaths in just the USA and counting. That guy needs to revise what 'few' means. > people should have the right to be heard. That is an oversimplification of the situation. To allow videos to mislead the public into thinking that there has been just a 'few' deaths may cause more harm. Like screaming fire in a crowded theater when there is no fire is wrong, the same applies to call over 60,000 deaths 'few'. It's a lie and it is a harmful one.
- sfj 6y agoThat's a long laundry list of the non controversial stuff that they said. But after watching the first ten minutes of the 1 hour video, I saw how they concluded that because X % of the people that were tested for the virus were positive, it meant that also, the same X % of the general population already had it, too. Therefore it was no big deal. (I don't know what else was wrong with it, because I cringed so hard I couldn't take anymore) Obviously this is untrue because people that don't suspect themselves to have the virus would not go and take the test. I'm sure if posted here, this assertion would have been laughed off of HN. To be clear, however, I don't believe censorship is the right approach. Although, since YouTube is a private company, they should be able to do what they want.
