Think of the virus as an inferior Chinese product... lots of great intention and BS - not much compared to American, Russian or German bio-weapons... and yeah, he was thinking like a lefty...

It is a hoax, has always been a hoax and will end a hoax.

Formulated by the FNM, demonrats and big money that want to see PDJT fail.

All of you that help to spread the hoax should be ashamed

“A certain FluBro was on here positing that such might be the case.”

And our resident FR DeathBros will be insanely upset.

I’d like to send this out to all my FluBro Branch Covidian Fomite Licking friends out there . . . .

Here is Dr. Fergeson on Twitter this morning, saying he has not revised downward:

1/4 - I think it would be helpful if I cleared up some confusion that has emerged in recent days. Some have interpreted my evidence to a UK parliamentary committee as indicating we have substantially revised our assessments of the potential mortality impact of COVID-19.— neil_ferguson (@neil_ferguson) March 26, 2020

2/4 -This is not the case. Indeed, if anything, our latest estimates suggest that the virus is slightly more transmissible than we previously thought. Our lethality estimates remain unchanged.— neil_ferguson (@neil_ferguson) March 26, 2020

3/4 - My evidence to Parliament referred to the deaths we assess might occur in the UK in the presence of the very intensive social distancing and other public health interventions now in place.— neil_ferguson (@neil_ferguson) March 26, 2020

missed 4/4

4/4 - Without those controls, our assessment remains that the UK would see the scale of deaths reported in our study (namely, up to approximately 500 thousand).— neil_ferguson (@neil_ferguson) March 26, 2020

Ferguson is a royal a hole then. People like him caused a massive market crash and is responsible for an irresponsible bail out bill that just passed. I knew I should have trusted my skeptical instinct when this all started. Lying sacks of crap all over the place.

Gonna be a lot of unused dead wagons laying around.

At least this professor had the moral fortitude to admit his model was wrong, unlike the thousands of junk-scientists who have hoodwinked the Climate Cretins (policymakers) into wrecking entire industries.

If Satan Soros is a major funder of Imperial College, then he very likely knew what would happen to the markets after this fear-mongering model was spread far and wide.

Travis, yesterday you axed us to check back with you in 14 days, well I'm 13 days early, but thought you might want to prepare the back pedal device on your vehicle.

He'll probably be here and just make his graphic a little bit bigger. Maybe it's just me but it seemed like every time he reposted it got bigger.

Branch Covidian

Bush league.

Whatever you think of people who disagree with you and have been, well, hostile to you, knock off the Branch Davidian reference.

Yes he was. And it sure gets me thinking that he had a head's up on this before the Fox Town Hall - because he was suddenly back to the President I know and love.

It is time to re-evaluate the universities. Their research is highly suspect.

For the love of Pete, people. We’ve spent weeks now on FR having to see “we’re all doomed” vs. “it’s just the flu”, with every posted article being accompanied by “See? This proves I’m right and you’re stupid!”

Now one guy changes his computer model and we’re going to have to see “I told you so!” for the next week? This place is like an elementary school playground sometimes.

I'll gladly shorten it to a day if the Fearpers bow down in homage to the FluBros and admit they were duped. Oh, and do my laundry for a month.

Ferguson has changed his tune, revealing that far more people likely have the virus than his team figured.

Dr. Birx gave a pretty good explanation of the reason for this confusion, the steps being taken to quantify the, as yet unknown, reality of things with real data and a loose timeline for when it can be clarified.

Fergason testified before Parliament that his numbers changed because he accepted China’s numbers, that 20% would be hospitalized.
