Another COVID Lie Bites the Dust As Study Finds No Correlation Between School Closings and Transmission
Red State ^ | January 26, 2025 | Mike Miller

Posted on 01/26/2025 9:36:39 AM PST by george76

As the COVID pandemic swept across the United States and in the years that followed, scientists, informed commentators, and journalists who questioned the origin of the virus and subsequent COVID policies were summarily dismissed, censored, blacklisted, and even canceled without serious consideration.

From ineffective masks to "social distancing," to corporate lockdowns and school closures, those among us who relied on unbiased facts and valid information have been vindicated, as one COVID canard after another has gone up in smoke.

Now, new study results published by the Journal of Infection further undermine the lies and obfuscations told by the former head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Anthony Fauci — who indignantly declared in June 2021: "Attacks on me, quite frankly, are attacks on science" — the CDC (Centers for Disease Control), and others in positions of authority, including within the federal government.

...

The hospitalisation and death rate trends that commenced before schools reopened continued on the same trajectory after schools reopened.

...

Reopening schools did not change the existing trajectory of COVID-19 rates.

In other words, as George Washington University Law School Professor and political commentator Jonathan Turley put it:

We shut down our schools, without any demonstrable benefit to the country. We did, however, succeed in reducing free speech in the name of combating “disinformation.”

Precisely. According to the study, the scientists found no significant differences in reported cases:

No consistent patterns in cases, hospitalizations or deaths [were found] despite school re-openings or changes to public health measures.

Yet, the COVID scolds — with Fauci as the hood ornament of the lying clown car — dismissed challenges to their lies and incorrect assumptions and conclusions as "disinformation," "misinformation," and other left-wing buzzwords, when it turns out that they hid or ignored valid data and studies that ran counter to their narratives.

I take this to be based on the fiction that there was Covid transmission to speak of?

Haven’t yet read the post, but weren’t more than one professional persons outspoken on this and persecuted for their anti-government/anti-lockdown views at the onset of such ‘mandates’?

Nope the children were not getting sick. The closures were to protect the teachers and administrators. I do know a few in my local school district were afraid of being around the kids.
BTW if you think about it sick adults can’t teach and sick administrators don’t open schools

My observation in our small town is the parents began to keep their kids home before the schools were closed.

Was a disappointing and disturbing time in American history for me. Got to see just how many cowardly, gullible, illiterate and closet Hitler citizens there are among us. Witnessed and experienced all sorts of dangerously idiotic things that made me have to reassess the society I live and function in.

Also, school children were at low risk of complications from the disease.

“No consistent patterns in cases, hospitalizations or deaths [were found] despite...”

* School closings
* the 6 foot rule
* masks
* closing businesses
* closing restaurants
* closing public parks
* one-way aisles at the grocery store
* hand sanitizer and wipes
* insane Karens haranguing you everywhere you went

A state of emergency that lasts years is not an emergency.. it is a dictatorship.

Several California cops ( no masks ) dragged a surfer (surfing alone) out of the ocean.

Police ticketed families attending a church service inside their cars in the parking lot on Easter.. as not essential… cancelled Weddings as non-essential..

While yelling to strangers in strip clubs .. deemed by democrat politicians as essential....

And BLM and antifa riots were essential, too.

That was not the purpose. Destroying your kids education was the purpose. And oppression.

Thank you for referencing that article george76. Please note at the following critique is directed at the study's conclusion and not at you.

"Another COVID Lie Bites the Dust As Study Finds No Correlation Between School Closings and Transmission"


FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

In stark contrast to drilled quarantines (compare to fire drills), the delayed, politically correct CV19 so-called "quarantines" were pure junk science optics imo.

In other words, because of confused, sluggish response to CV19 quarantining, I wouldn't be surprised if quarantining with already infected family members had actually helped to spread the virus.

In fact, here is a video of Pelosi in San Fran Chinatown telling people to ignore CV19 and come enjoy the food to spite "Orange Man Bad" order to go home and quarantine.

Speaker Pelosi Visits SF's Chinatown To Show Support Amid Coronavirus Fears (non-FR; 2:14 min; 2.24.2020)

A study of sloppy CV19 “quarantines” doesn't tell us anything effectiveness of trained, fast response quarantines imo.
