No, that's not what I said. Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES should nursing homes have been used for anything, other than housing the people who originally paid to be in those homes. The Gov issues an executive order, and the nursing homes told

No, I'm not. That AP article directly contradicts what the WHO envoy said > We in the World Health Organization do not advocate lockdowns as the primary means of control of this virus,” Dr. David Nabarro said to The Spectator’s Andr

In this case, Cuomo killed thousands of people with very bad decisions. Yes, there's a good chance if he did nothing at all, there would have been a lower death count. The WHO is already telling all nations the lockdowns need to end. T

You do realize the majority of deaths in NYC were due to Cuomo sending sick COVID-19 elderly patients to be sent to nursing homes and kept in the same rooms as healthy elderly people right? Same with Gov Whitmer in Michigan. Janice Dean cov

In South Korea the contact tracing led to people being found who were cheating on their partners. Some committed suicide. Moral questions aside, is that the world you want to live in? I personally don't even use an Android/eyePhon

There is literally no scientific evidence they've been effective at all. If you really dig, you find things like the Flaxman, et. al. paper ( https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2405-7 ) which falls apart if

I agree. I think genetics and the other factors you mentioned might have a major role. Also in the US and EU, PCR tests are done with over 40 amplification cycles, leading to massive amounts of false positives. There is no global standard f

No one is accurately talking about the risks. The vast majority of people who have died have been over 60. There have been young people who died, yes. But young people die all the time of things that often kill very few: fungal infections,

I don't even think it needs to be free. Many US States provide a State ID for $20~$50. Even if you don't drive, it's very difficult to survive without at least a State ID (just to buy alcohol or for anything that needs legal

Foreign aid is never intended to help the people of a nation. It's used by high-income democratic nations to support autocratic policies and resource extraction. I doubt very much of that 793M makes it to any of the people pulling thes

I use to think UBI was a good thing, but looking at what's happened in the past year, I was completely and totally wrong. UBI would likely be a complete disaster. It'd be less Star Trek and more The Expanse. This is a horrible ide

So, they intentionally decided not to do longitudinal studies before releasing the drug. You can dress it up, but it's still skipping them.

It'd be fine back when Jenner created the first vaccine over 185 years ago. There were no ethics boards back then. A lot of people died from snake oil treatments too.

There were also all the issues with the 1970s Swine Flu vaccine that turned out to not even be all that effective. 60 Minutes did a piece on it, and it's getting more and more difficult to search for on YouTube: https://www.

There were human trials, but they skipped Longitudinal trials (long term effects) and they also didn't do challenge responses (exposing those people with the vaccine to COVID in a controlled manner), correct?
