The data is in — stop the panic and end the total isolation

The tragedy of the COVID-19 pandemic appears to be entering the containment phase. Tens of thousands of Americans have died, and Americans are now desperate for sensible policymakers who have the courage to ignore the panic and rely on facts. Leaders must examine accumulated data to see what has actually happened, rather than keep emphasizing hypothetical projections; combine that empirical evidence with fundamental principles of biology established for decades; and then thoughtfully restore the country to function.

Five key facts are being ignored by those calling for continuing the near-total lockdown:

Fact 1: The overwhelming majority of people do not have any significant risk of dying from COVID-19.
Fact 2: Protecting older, at-risk people eliminates hospital overcrowding.
Fact 3: Vital population immunity is prevented by total isolation policies, prolonging the problem.
Fact 4: People are dying because other medical care is not getting done due to hypothetical projections.
Fact 5: We have a clearly defined population at risk who can be protected with targeted measures

this article is an excellent read written by Dr. Scott Atlas, the former neuroradiology chief at Stanford University Medical Center

 

i think within days the national motto will change from "30 days to slow the spread" to "protect our vulnerable" and that will be the main thrust of the govt messaging. living normal lives except being super careful about old and fat people until the vaccine.

although they probably wont say fat people because its offensive

 

Best article yet. We need some sanity. If they don’t get their shit together we are going to have bigger problems.

1) disruption to food production and supply chain issues - there are already multiple stories of processing plants closing, farmers having to leave crops in the field, plowing under potatoes, ranchers eliminating stock ..... this is going to lead to a food shortage and people are going to starve to death. If the government wants a civil war, let people get hungry.

2) Unemployment - is leading to a liquidation of assets and causing stress. Stress leads to depression and anxiety, resulting in suicide and domestic violence. Further, any hopes of getting the economy back up and running will involve getting people back to work, not giving them welfare checks. Work is required to produce goods and services and to continue to purchase goods and services.

 

Man ... is that ol Joe putting the move on the next leader of NK?

 

I ain't fat. I'm built for comfort. I ain't built for speed.

 

Haha - Abbott trumped the judge. There is no mandatory wearing of masks in TX and no fines allowed if you don't have one. You are highly encouraged to wear them tho. His executive order trumps the Harris County judge

 

i am suprised and very disappointed that JBE added 2 more weeks to our sentence.

sucks

 

I was actually surprised it wasn’t more. He’s definitely not someone to lead during a pandemic.
