Anybody want a Corona?

It was super cool to give China all the time it needs to destroy the evidence of the biggest cover-up in modern history, but better late than never:

This will help us rally the troops in the latest phase 4 event: WWIII.




EDIT: Here's the Wade article that has pushed this further into the mainstream. Not sure how anyone can read the evidence and deny that a lab leak was possible: https://nicholaswade.medium.com/origin- ... f03564c038

Yeah, its a downer how many times public health officials have failed us during the last year plus. Maybe we should stop awarding public health degrees until we figure out whats going on.

why do we need instant gratification for everything we're asked to do. there's always a bigger picture.

A reasonable ask would be wear a mask until herd immunity. The current ask is open ended wear a mask forever. That is not reasonable, and counters everything we know about effective vaccines for other diseases. This one is novel as in new, not novel as in having an unknown mechanism of spread.

Masks don't work. And they know it.

The stupid surgical masks might make a tiny difference, but the lack of any sense of urgency of approving the manufacture of more N95s or better gave the game away. Masking is 100% social signaling theater.

We have the feedstock for all of the inputs required to make 3M half face respirators. We had a year to do so. We didn't. If this wasn't due to a lack of will, we are entirely fucked if we ever have to ramp up to wartime industry.

I might just run up and dick punch the next person I see walking alone outside with a mask on

Even if everyone had n95 you have to throw them away after use. Letting people believe their stupid cloth masks work was the only recourse they had.

Not sure this is the case. Fomites seem to not be a thing. They lied about masks originally in an attempt to maintain the N-95 or equivalent supply. They never discriminated between the two for a similar reason.

If you doff an N-95, it doesn't seem likely that you'd immediately inhale a ton of viable virus.

If I served on a jury for such an act, I would not vote to convict.

Real well-adjusted folks in this thread.

Eh, I could be wrong. The CDC isn't saying fomites specifically but does have language about contaminated hands. It is the CDC though, so they may be full of shit for messaging reasons.

Got together with some family for mother's day today. Nobody was masked and I don't even recall covid getting mentioned.

Happy you got to spend time with your family.
