The ignorance and the lies concerning the Wuhan virus can't continue much longer, because time is simply revealing the truth about it. As we continue to suffer under foolish Wuhan virus restrictions, and as many parts of the U.S. — especially those under the rule of Democrats — are again ramping up the shutdowns and the lockdowns, more and more Americans are beginning to see what many of us have long known: the Wuhan virus data simply don't match the Wuhan virus hysteria. The evidence of this continues to pile up.
As they near the end of the first semester, U.S. schools provide some of the best evidence for those sick of shutdown politics and propaganda. In spite of millions of U.S. students attending in-person classes, nowhere in America are school-aged students suffering in any significant way from the Wuhan virus. And don't tell me about "cases." As I've long noted when it comes to the Wuhan virus, cases without context are meaningless.
Andrew Bostom again provides us with some important context on Wuhan virus cases. As of early October, in spite of nearly seventy thousand reported Wuhan virus "cases" across 50 U.S. colleges and universities, there were only three hospitalizations and zero deaths! Almost certainly, numbers across all of America's K–12 schools are similar. We can be nearly certain that if this were not the case, a media establishment desperate to further the shutdown narrative would tell us so. (The media have already been caught multiple times publishing fake news on this matter.)
Months-old data out of Europe told us that schoolchildren were in little to no danger from the Wuhan virus. As City Journal recently reported:

just say No to hysteria
It is interesting to compare this SARS-Cov-2 “pandemic” to the 2009 Swine flu. The German news, De Speigel, has a good summary:
Also Forbes, “The Pandemic that Wasn’t”
https://www.forbes.com/2010/03/10/swine-flu-world-health-organization-pandemic-opinions-contributors-henry-i-miller.html?sh=568d63c81617
The 2009 Swine Flu episode was also promoted through the use of PCR testing.
I think that if COVID-19 were a real problem, evidence for that would increase over time and it would be harder and harder for anyone to say “It’s a hoax”.
But I think what we are seeing is increasing evidence that “COVID deaths” are really flu, pneumonia and heart disease deaths. We see evidence that masks don’t work. Lockdowns don’t work. As time goes by, I think it becomes more and more obvious that this is a scam intended to control a fearful population.
It’ll disappear from the news LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE as soon as the left doesn’t need it as a cudgel again Trump anymore.
After two weeks I quit taking it seriously. We live in a dystopian world right out of a movie, and for nothing.

I just donated blood and found out I am negative for antibodies. I’m a little annoyed as I was hoping for some ammo against the mask nazis. But after 10 months of no masks, no testing, no symptoms, no antibodies, living in an urban area and not hiding in my basement, how did I pull that off?
Probably the same way I did. I’ve been to 10-12 states, several multiple times, stayed in hotels, eaten in restaurants, taught classes, been in large groups including one of 50,000, shook hands ignored masks etc.
I guess I’m naturally immune or something.
***After nine months of near meaningless measures by leftist authoritarians and those duped by their fear-mongering, time has made it clear that the Wuhan virus is simply going to do what most viruses do: run its course, have exposure to the vast majority of us, and have little to no impact on the vast majority of us. It is past time for the decision-makers in our society to heed this mountain of information and end the cancelations, mandates, shutdowns, and lockdowns.***
Even those who fear the CCP virus are finally catching on.
I was negative when tested a few months ago. I flew cross country several times in Mar-May. Driven across the country several times. Go to church without a mask. Go to stores without a mask where legal - in Arizona, each town/county makes up its own rules, although the vast majority of the state has a mask mandate along with rapidly rising cases, now higher than when the mask mandate was put in place in June. Where I live now doesn’t have a mandate.
We’ve got grandkids physically in school that we’re taking care of.
Cases are low in this county still. Hots spots in Arizona remain the Indian reservations and Douglas, Nogales and Yuma - the three border towns.
The hysteria was ginned up so as to make the virus a major crisis for Trump, which they blamed entirely on him. Now, they are using it to hold on to and expand their power.
“It is interesting to compare this SARS-Cov-2 “pandemic” to the 2009 Swine flu.”
The CDC quietly changed the definition of “Cases” o include asymptomatics, and “”deaths from” to include “deaths with.” Early on. Those are facts. And that is the entire difference. Otherwise death rates would be almost exactly the same, and “cases” as well.
NYS is counting repeat positives on the same patient as new cases.
Bet other states are doing it, too.
Not my field of expertise, so this may be dumb —
COVID-19 is a coronavirus. That’s a large family of viruses. During Cold and Flu season, lots of people pick up one coronavirus or another. If you test for coronaviruses, you’ll get a lot of positive tests.
Question: How certain are we that the “COVID-19” test only shows a positive for COVID-19?
I think the main purpose was to use the Wu-Flu as an excuse for the mail-in ballot fraud.
It’s the lack of common sense that drives me crazy.
I’m a skier and have been a ski instructor. I can’t believe what the ski areas are doing to “protect” skiers from Covid. First, anyone showing Covid symptoms would be nuts to hang out at a ski resort. They are not warm and fuzzy places. Then the ski areas are requiring masks, getting ready in cars, eating in your car, making ski reservations. It’s crazy. Skiing is probably the most individual, socially distanced sport, and we all wear masks outside just to stay warm. The other restrictions, with plexi here there and everywhere, are just crazy. Who wants to ski if you can’t warm up with a cup of cocoa or coffee by the fireplace after skiing?
Unfortunately, totalitarianism rolls on.
“Question: How certain are we that the “COVID-19” test only shows a positive for COVID-19?”
RNA is composed of repeating units of “Letters,” which are partial chunks of protein that repeat, not in a steady pattern. Each letter is a fairly long molecule by itself. SARS2-CoV is the virus, the RNA strand in it is composed of around 30,000 letters. The PCR would take days to exactly match it, if it could at all, so they just scan for chunks of it, called the “Target Sequence.” Each target sequence is around 2,000 letters long, iirc.
The test scans for 2 different target sequences. Different countries use different target sequences. You must hit both to be a “positive.”
There is overlap with other coronaviruses for the sequences, yes. A single hit would not be definitive. Hitting both is supposed to be exclusive, but from what I understand, it is not. I believe you can have 2 other coronaviruses and set off the PCR positive, without actually having SARS2-COV. How often this happens, I do not know.
That’s the extent of my knowledge.
