For months, we've been lectured to by the political elites that cases of coronavirus are spreading too quickly and that we must wear masks to stop the spread. The obvious fault with their act of desperation is that they can no longer mask the fact that most parts of the country have already been fully masked for months — long before the ubiquitous spread this fall.
Researchers at RationalGround.com, a clearinghouse of COVID-19 data trends run by a grassroots group of data analysts, computer scientists, and actuaries, did an analysis of all 50 states divided by those that had mask mandates and those that did not. Justin Hart, co-founder of the website, posted the results in a Twitter thread and shared with me the data analysis...
They studied the number of cases over a 229-day period from May 1 through Dec. 15 and divided the results of the two study groups by days with mask mandates and days without mask mandates. The non-mandate data group includes both states that never had a mandate and those that did at some point, but data set included only the days they did not have a mask mandate.....
In total, in the states that had a mandate in effect, there were 9,605,256 confirmed COVID cases over 5,907 total days, an average of 27 cases per 100,000 per day. When states did not have a statewide order (which includes the states that never had them and the period of time masking states did not have the mandate in place) there were 5,781,716 cases over 5,772 total days, averaging 17 cases per 100,000 people per day....

There must be bodies everywhere.
Been a good year for casket sales according to my friend at Hillenbrand here in Indiana.
They had been trending down due to Chinese imports and increased cremation.
This is a classic case of correlation or causation. Did the states with mask mandates impose the mandates because they had a lot of cases? Did the states with a mandate avoid the mandate because they had few cases? Very much like the question do states with restrictive gun laws have the laws because they have high crime rates or do they have high crime rates because they restrict gun ownership?
So, you’ve seen the bodies?
I actually wouldn’t doubt this. People figit around with the masks, touching their face, etc. more than they would without them. Moreover, given how they have been overhyped, they give people a false sense of security into believing if infected people are present, the masks offer strong protection - they do not, and thus let their guard down to take other common sense measures. If you are in an enclosed area where the virus is in aerosol, the mask will not stop you from getting infected.
No, so maybe somebody is buying those caskets and stockpiling them in warehouses. But I do know their volume increased in 2020.
Maybe whoever that is will have a surplus sale next year and I can get a big discount?
fact: this virus was made to spread so CDC and FauXi
would collect royalties from BOTH every test and
every treatment for decades. IT WAS PLANNED.
the masks were never collected.
they were KNOWINGLY Ordered to increase prevalence
increase deadliness and spread and NEVER ONCE collected.
the virus was patented for $$$$$$$$ <== a war crime
My first thought exactly.
If you haven’t seen the bodies, then why reply to me?
I am looking for people who have seen all the bodies.
You haven’t.
I have a theory that most people react to mask rules by avoiding going where masks are required, except for necessities like the grocery store. We’ve got grocery runs down to 3 times a month. Everything else gets ordered off the net except a rare run to a very small Ace Hardware nearby.
Masks kill walk-in businesses, not the virus.
The mask can actually help in those situations. Since there are many other variables, you can’t give a blanket statement that it never helps.
In the NYC subway, we have many additional remedies: giving someone the stink-eye, moving our own mask over our eyes, navigating to another part of the subway car, and if all else fails, getting off the train and waiting for the next one.
We’re pains in the neck, but we’ve been doing very well for such a crowded place with so many nut jobs. There’s much more compliance than there was at first.
“I am looking for people who have seen all the bodies.
You haven’t.”

“Comprehensive analysis of 50 states shows greater spread with mask mandates”
Follow the scientists! You’re not a scientist. Where’s your white coat? Huh? Huh? You’re just a non-white-coat-wearing actuary, and you’re not the boss of us. So there. Thpthhh. And put that mask on./s
This means that despite masking being an abject failure to "stop the spread," mandated masking will not only continue, the tyrants (e.g., governors; unelected bureaucrats; the "experts") will attempt to expand it.
I find it better to simply ignore everything the politicians, unelected bureaucrats and, of course, the "experts say anyway ... or at least have a mask that if a private business owner requests you wear it the mask offers a direct insult to the tyrant of your choice.
“There must be bodies everywhere.”
There are as many bodies and piles of limbs just like pre-Obamacare days.
Killing walk-in businesses is one of the objectives of the covid reset. Chief objective was getting rid of anti-Chicom Orange Man.
Correlation is not causation. You would need a lot more data to come to any kind of real conclusion.
