Good morning. The FEARPERs narrative for today
1. 37000 new cases. The like the big numbers but don’t look at the data in any detail. Hospitalizations way down. Deaths continue to be reported each day in ways that likely account for (probable included) deaths from weeks ago
2. The increase in cases demonstrate wide spread testing. We are seeing an awful lot of (+) but asymptomatic on the ground. Additionally the officials statements from the WH show high testing will uncover cases that would never reach the medical system
3. We may in fact be approaching the low end of herd immunity based on ongoing antibody testing
4. The FEAPERS are going to say increase numbers in Georgia however this reflects finally increased testing there.
5. Watch for mission creep. It was flatten them curve to not overwhelm the hospital system. Now it’s keep everyone safe. Subtle but effective moving of the goal posts to deny our freedoms
6. Two very encouraging papers around HCQ. When used early on it appears to stop the progression to SARS. I Think it should be used as prophylaxis. We have effective early treatment and likely prevention.
7. Remdesivir study stopped as it was shown efficacious. This means we have treatment.
8. It was said if we have effective treatments and prophylaxis we should get back to wide open. We have these. Additionally there is great promise of vaccine availability by October.
The FEARPERS will spend today trying to downplay any good news. But the vast majority of the news is good and even great. We must be vigilant to keep our liberties from being further eroded by the lies of omission the FEAPERS and press will broadcast loud and long
I wonder if Kojak sleeps in on weekends?
Saw Dr. Richard Besser on "Good Morning America" today, and he confirmed something I have been reading elsewhere. Testing is sh*t. There are no known accurate tests out there yet.
He said all the test available are too broad, and pick up wide arrays of corona viruses other than Covid 19.
Do you know what's worse than no information? Bad information.
