The Coronavirus Thread
Re: The Coronavirus Thread
I see the BLM protests going on currently very critically. Many people are wearing masks and it happens mostly outside, but there's still a lot of people unnecessarily close to each other.

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
Blows my comment right out of the water, that does. I look forward to more of them. Going by many of your previous posts I am confident you will not disappoint.Cunt wrote: ↑Fri Jun 05, 2020 6:31 pmlolHermit wrote: ↑Fri Jun 05, 2020 6:10 pmEven the officials who publish the data know the figures are wrong. I have linked to one example, and I am sure there are more. The inaccuracies generally come down to two factors.
1.) The impossibility of deriving definite figures in the absence of a comprehensive set of tests.
2.) The number of unreported deaths due to the corona virus by people who have died at home or aged care facilities.
Scot Dutchy repeatedly asserted that the number of deaths caused by the virus than reports would have it without ever once backing his assertions up with data. He deserves no apology.
I scrapped the rest of your reply because it is irrelevant to the post you quoted.

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
No, and a long, long list of such failures, all coming sagely from 'trusted institutions' shouldn't shake your faith.

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
Please provide that long, long list of such failures. I'll give you a hand constructing it by presenting you with this link as an example of how you might go about it, but it is up to you to convince me that the list is long, long in comparison to peer reviewed scientific and/or medical articles published in the relevant journals that were not retracted.
The fact that even peer reviewed scientific articles do get retracted after publication by specialist journals instils trust in such institutions. In contrast, a retraction of the prediction made in November 2017 concerning Hillary Clinton's imminent arrest and extradition, or at least an explanation by q why it did not come to pass, is still outstanding. Come to think of it, has/have q retracted even a single mistake of his/them? Ever?

OK, I wouldn't disagree with you. Coronavirus is VERY deadly, and very transmissible.Hermit wrote: ↑Fri Jun 05, 2020 9:32 pmPlease provide that long, long list of such failures.

So if people march on Washington DC, should the Fed's treat it as a bio-attack? Or peaceful protest?

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
Since I have not commented on the degree of deadliness or transmissibility of the corona virus I can't really tell what it is you wouldn't disagree with me about.

I also think the virus is, as pitched (by the fuckups) deadly and highly transmissible.
They were two sentences.
Clumsy, but just steering back to the topic of the thread.
If protesters descend on DC, will they be seen as a viral threat on the seat of government, or will social justice be more important?
It's clear to me that the virus was not changed by the murder. The only thing that could have changed, was the media fervor around each issue.

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
What wouldn't you disagree with? That the list of failures is not long, long? The fact that peer reviewed articles do get retracted instils trust in the publishers? That q has/have never retracted even a single mistake of his/them? Please clarify.

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
Can't disagree with you on that!
I mean, if you want to find someone who wishes to disagree with you, as smart as you are, I'm sure you'll have no trouble finding such here.

Re: The Coronavirus Thread
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-heal ... SKBN23D0KBDutch mink farms have begun a government-ordered cull amid concern that animals infected with coronavirus could transmit the illness to humans.
Dutch mink were first infected with coronavirus by their handlers in April. In May, the government identified two cases in which humans had been infected by sick animals — the only animal-to-human transmissions known since the global outbreak began in China.
The cull involves farm workers in protective clothing using gas on mink mothers and pups. The bodies will be sent to a disposal plant and the farms will be disinfected.
