Israeli mathematician Isaac Ben-Israel
Top Israeli mathematician Isaac Ben-Israel predicted in mid-April (April 15) that the deadly COVID-19 virus peaks after around 40 days independent of the society locking down their economy or not.
Via Ned Nikolov.
The Times of Israel reported:
A prominent Israeli mathematician, analyst and former general claims simple statistical analysis demonstrates that the spread of COVID-19 peaks after about 40 days and declines to almost zero after 70 days no matter where it strikes, and no matter what measures governments impose to try to thwart it.
Prof Isaac Ben-Israel, head of the Security Studies program in Tel Aviv University and the chairman of the National Council for Research and Development, told Israels Channel 12 (Hebrew) Monday night that research he conducted with a fellow professor, analyzing the growth and decline of new cases in countries around the world, showed repeatedly that theres a set pattern and the numbers speak for themselves.
While he said he supports social distancing, the widespread shuttering of economies worldwide constitutes a demonstrable error in light of those statistics. In Israels case, he noted, about 140 people normally die every day. To have shuttered much of the economy because of a virus that is killing one or two a day is a radical error that is unnecessarily costing Israel 20% of its GDP, he charged.
On April 15 The Gateway Pundit posted the graphs of the number of cases from several countries.
Today we are adding the most recent graphs a month later on the number of deaths to give a better picture of what’s happening in each country.
We looked at cases in April but countries are testing more people in May so it makes more sense to look at number of deaths today.
Here is a look at several countries battling the coronavirus.
US Cases April–

Spain deaths in May – note: they actually deletes almost 2,000 deaths that they overcounted —

From an initial glance at the spread of coronavirus in these countries it appears Professor Ben-Israel was correct last month and is still correct.
Every country appears to reach a peak after 30-40 days and then they see the numbers drop significantly.
If this is correct Dr. Birx and Dr. Fauci should be fired for pushing a colossal fraud on the American people and for destroying the US economy and millions of American lives.

Forty days regardless of what you do. Seems like the Venetians had an inherent insight when they came up with “quaranta” or 40 days when dealing with outbreaks of infectious disease.

Professor Ben is a brilliant man. He has degrees in math, physics, and philosophy. He is a national treasure for the Israeli’s.

I observed my county’s “shelter in place” for exactly 40 days, and then released my kids to go see their friends, etc.
Something about observing the quarantine for 40 days, no more and no less, felt right to me—it was more than “15 days to flatten the curve,” but less than the months and months my blue county wants to stay shut down. . .
The ancients knew 40 days was enough.

This virus followed the same trajectory as every other stupid virus.
They evolve, they infect, they spread, they peak, they fade out.
The fade is usually expedited by the natural acquisition of herd immunity, which the blue state tyrants outlawed.
Despite dem dreams of a huge flare up in time for Election Day, it doesnt seem likely.
They can find a new crisis to inflate and exploit.
Waiting for them to discover killer hornets.

Fraudci cant help himself, its his love for Hillary that makes him do evil things.
True story. He wrote at least one gushing letter to Cheryl Mills in which he cooed shamelessly about how he *loves* Hillary and how *proud* he is of her stellar performance in front of Congress. (CTH has the letter, credit Sundance).
Hes talking about Benghazi. Do you need any more background than this?

The Jews came up with it first.
40 is the biblical number for God’s judgement. Noah’s flood rained for 40 days and nights—and the world was destroyed. The Hebrews wandered 40 years in the Wilderness,with an entire generation dying.... before going into the Promised land. Jesus fasted and was tempted for 40 days.
40 is a very eerie number.

So if Brazil got it right by remaining mostly open, why did we cut off air traffic from there last week? Those charts would seem to indicate that the 40 day rule didn’t apply to Brazil.
