Great post on the Idaho antibody numbers.

Those numbers sound reasonable.

I think folks here knew what the results would be—”everybody already had it” was just FluBro propaganda from day one.

If the intelligence agencies want to earn some public trust on the new technologies, the best place to start is with some big public trials and serious jail time for those who already have abused the system.

Their decades long coverup mentality means trusting them is totally out of the question.

cause of death not known yet

DJ D-Nice broke the news Friday night on Instagram Live. The cause of death is not yet known, but the day before his death Andre posted this ... “Whoever need a ride to 2021 ... we leave tomorrow morning,” and ... “Skip the virus and Let’s Pick it up again at the top of the year.”

I am praying hard that Trump and Pence dont get this virus

We get President Pelosi..even if for a short time

No doubt they will do plasma exchange if they get it..but they need to not get it at the same time.

Travelers—stuffed shoulder to shoulder into two-seat rows—grumbled at one another from behind masks. An ominous announcement came over the in-flight PA system: “We apologize for the alarming amount of passengers on this flight.” Each of us was a potential vector of deadly disease.

Do we have anything like this? I am impressed by this Chinese protocol for school kids. Love the robot health scanner.

Why would they want the county health departments to do what they’ve done for over 100 years? when they could have the ‘toon foundation get all the $$$ and graft from that?

Federales don’t want this to work. They never did. It’s why we did NOT do the testing/tracing program like Thailand, Taiwan, SK and other countries that are completely open with no or only 1 or 2 new cases/day now.

big corporate donors win either way. either bailout money, or ‘the contract to do that’ (whatever that happens to be).

Things were in bad shape BEFORE any government calls for lockdown:

https://twitter.com/Covid19Digest/status/1258936747699965953

People won’t return to their normal habits until we know more about the long term effects of this virus. I don’t fancy a million dollar hospital bill or permanent organ damage.

Also, I’m’a let a few flubros in my age group...the ones that just can’t avoid the all you can eat buffets and bbq joints get infected. That way they can ‘assist’ the rest of us in working out testing/drug/dosing/timing protocols. Until this gets like the flu, ‘get swab, get scrip, pay deductible, leave’ I won’t be doing anything that puts me at risk.

“Warmer weather does NOT stop coronavirus spreading: Two separate studies dash hopes of killer infection dying out in summer”

At least in 1918, what warmer weather did was force people to open windows, so they didn’t near the viron build-up that they got during the winter months.

Obviously not the case now!
