Flubros and Flubras! Day 43 (a place for Flubros and Flubras)

It’s just the flu, bro.

Latest from CNN website is that scientists think that CV will not stop until 60-70% of the population gets immunity, at which point herd immunity will develop. The threshold for herd immunity goes up as R0 goes up. Some say the range for herd immunity is as low as 29% and as high as 74%. But the notion that a virus won’t fizzle out until herd immunity develops isn’t controversial. The controversial part is that these scientists/activists say that we should use “mitigation” techniques for up to 2 years while herd immunity develops.

Isn’t that sneaky what the scientists did? - the expert/scientist talks intelligently about one thing (herd immunity) then he magically extends his expertise to public policy advocating for a certain position (extended lockdowns and restrictions on business). This is exactly what global warming scientists do. They will research something and say, for example, that the ppm of CO2 has gone up a certain percentage, therefore, everyone who drives an SUV should be castrated so that we have fewer people on the planet emitting CO2.

Countless. My county is about half that size with four deaths. All were elderly and had a previous health condition.

Last night Tucker Carlson reported that the WHO is shifting positions and now seems to think that the Swedish model is the way to go.

And this is why you're a liar, Fearbro.

Funeral Directors Blow the Whistle on Deaths Falsely Attributed to Coronavirus

(excerpt)

“Basically, every death certificate that comes across our desk now has COVID on it,” said a funeral director in Williston Park, N.Y., on a recorded phone call with Project Veritas in a newly-released video.

James O’Keefe has been asking for people inside the medical system to blow the whistle if they see corruption or inconsistencies in reports about the Chinese WuFlu known as COVID-19.

In conversations with several funeral directors across New York City, O’Keefe uncovered a shocking narrative where, without fail, every director he spoke to expressed his or her concern that coronavirus deaths are being inflated and every death in NYC is being recorded as a COVID death with or without testing to confirm.

The two doctors in Fresno, California who had their video yanked by YouTube claim that all of their colleagues in hospitals are being “pressured” to classify as many deaths as possible as COVID.

That's a thing. Which makes reported rona death numbers a huge joke.

This ain't no pandemic. It's a hoaxdemic and Fearbros are suckers.

The larger point is that no one said we would not have deaths. However there is. it one shred of evidence that devastating our economy and trashing our civil rights has done anything. that’s what the fearbros forget when they post their death statistics

I would also like to see the numbers of suicides and the numbers of people who have already died for treatable conditions because they were afraid to seek care. Add to that the number of economically ruined lives and the cost of the lockdown is far greater than any nonprovable and likely minuscule benefit of the lockdown

The point is that they are actually harming the science because without ACCURATE data we’ll never get to the bottom of just how big a threat this might be.

Quite true.

This is why I estimated OMR for this year SO FAR (and made that clear).

Influenza this season so far CDC estimate=62000 Population=333456000 OMR=0.019%

Hundreds and hundreds of layoffs in the energy industry in my area over the past week. There will be a trickle down effect.

Please recalculate the OMR for us in 2 weeks.

We've passed the peak. The original point of the shutdown was to avoid overwhelming the health system. That's not going to happen, so that eliminates the reason for the shutdown.

As it stands, more people are going to die from depression from losing their jobs, businesses, and retirement funds, than will die from the flu.

It’s also been theorized that the coronavirus took a bunch of sick and elderly people who were most likely going to die in 2020 anyway and compressed those deaths into the timespan of a few weeks.

If correct we should see a drop in the overall death rate later in the year.

Time will tell.

Texas begins to open up today.

That will force or speed up the surrounding states to open up as scarce money and their possible taxes go to Texas.

“If we wanted to go to church while infected we could - it was up to the church”

At Walmart earlier this morning we ran into our pastor and we’ll be having church on Sunday. Just one service — at 11:00 — but it’s a start.
