https://twitter.com/who/status/1243972193169616898 https://twitter.com/who/status/1243972193169616898 In hindsight they were sort of wrong, there are some unusual cases where it is airborne. In reality covid is nearly entirely spread from something you touched. The problem is that it was then considered misinformation and censored. Everyone was forced to wear masks for no reason at all. If you tried to simply repeat what the WHO said... you would be censored. Now that we are doing away with harmful masks its remarkable to see everyone opposing it.

FALSE! COVID is almost impossible to spread through touch (fomites). Here's a CDC brief from about a year after the WHO tweet you shared: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/more/science-and-research/surface-transmission.html https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/more/science-and-r.... Important: "each contact with a contaminated surface has less than a 1 in 10,000 chance of causing an infection"

  >FALSE! COVID is almost impossible to spread through touch (fomites). Yes I agree COVID became political and they started censoring 'misinformation' and now we can't seem to discuss it.

    Can you provide an example of where factual information has been censored?

      >Can you provide an example of where factual information has been censored? I love the way you worded this. There's a trivial example of covid censorship being the lab leak story. But I guess you'll retort that it's not factual.

        I don't understand your point. The lab-leak theory is richly covered in the press and in my Facebook activities. A certainty that the lab-leak theory is true is the fake news. It is far from true. It is merely a theory whose odds become longer by the month.

        Your example of a Twitter ban is from 26 months ago and is over a conspiracy theory, written up in a publication known for being a prolific source of fake news, about a specific scientist. That was and still is false. The original argument put differently: -lab-leak theory <- not fake news; it is a theory and circulates among other theories of COVID's origin -lab-leak theory is true <- fake news; not only is it far from proven, its odds get worse each month as we find out more

        True, although the topic at hand is COVID, so that is my frame of reference for my comment.

  >It seems all you do on HN is run around spreading outright lies. It would seem you are doing a great duty in following me around HN to ensure I cannot spread lies. In reference to this current lie. I did reference the world health org. I guess I have nothing to rebuttal against your allegation that the WHO is lying.

    Not following you around, dude, just seeing lies being told in the threads that catch my attention and looking at the username to note that, oh hey, it’s you again. If you don’t want your username associated with lying, well, it’s up to you to quit lying.
