Anybody want a Corona?

[verb_to_trust]

If he said please don't use the masks and save them for the hospitals that's one thing, but what he said was "no you idiots, masks don't work for this. Hospitals need them though to provide care, so don't buy them"

"Go ahead and raw dog that prostitute verb, I don't have any evidence that she is ravaged by disease. A condom would be unnecessary, and you could actually damage your balls if you put it on wrong"- Surgeon General Jerome Michael Adams

I could be reading this totally wrong but man if I'm not these people are a total clown show and it's no wonder we fucked this all up so bad.

Quick reminder that it was China and the WHO (also China) that insisted there was no evidence of human to human transmission back at the beginning of 2020.

Fauci on the matter: https://www.businessinsider.com/fauci-d ... mic-2020-7

He's not saying "yep sorry I lied," he was acting with the information they had at the time, and as soon as more information became clear -- that it could be spread by asymptomatic carriers, and that homemade facemasks had some effectiveness in slowing the spread -- they corrected the recommendation

No, he wasn't acting on information. He either didn't know if facemasks had a role and that's what he should have said, or he knew and lied. Either way, saying masks are not needed was a lie or at best a fabrication not based on anything known.

Should have zero trouble getting clear evidence to support the claim in any related medical journal, yeah?

Why is it that everyone gets to call me names, but it's the end of the world if I get a little off color?

I don't mean to lend any support to what Bi_3 posted, but I 'member when Lancet published that entirely falsified study on Hydroxychloroquine from an entity that claimed to have hospital data from 100s of sites.

So yeah, the gatekeepers fuck up there in very significant ways from time to time.

Published in a medical journal is definitely not sufficient for whatever standard of proof you are aiming for.

Do I think it will easy for those three doctors to get a research paper that simultaneously:

1) indicts China
2) supports a Trump backed narrative

published? Sure. Should have no problems at all getting fairly peer-reviewed

What you just wrote sarcastically is in fact the correct answer.

[Jorge]

His logic was pretty widespread at the time, and basically about user error. I don't think he was lying, I think evidence was lacking.

in an interview with “Fox & Friends” on March 2 he said:

One of the things [the general public] shouldn’t be doing is going out and buying masks … It has not been proven to be effective in preventing the spread of coronavirus amongst the general public … Folks who don’t know how to wear them properly tend to touch their faces a lot, and actually can increase the spread of coronavirus. You can increase your risk of getting it by wearing a mask if you are not a healthcare provider.

Yeah, that was also the directive down here. And, as we know from Anders, it was still the rationale in much of Europe until very recently

Everyone, please tear apart verb's pointless, angry, ill-informed posts based on their merits and not on verb's personal attributes.

On a related note, how's the BLA thing doing?

[verb_to_trust]

Lol, I was banned during the BLA thing.

The best I could make of what B was saying was BLM is like Webelos in Boy Scouts and BLA is some Eagle Scout Mega Mind type shit.

[B]

or ... y'know, call him stupid. I don't REALLY care.
