Dining at restaurants and the lack of mask mandates are each linked to the spread of the virus in the U.S., the C.D.C. says.

As officials in Texas and Mississippi lifted statewide mask mandates, researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention offered fresh evidence of the importance of mask use in a new study on Friday. Wearing masks, the study reported, was linked to fewer infections with the coronavirus and Covid-19 deaths in counties across the United States

The researchers also found that counties opening restaurants for on-premises dining — indoors or outdoors — saw a rise in daily infections about six weeks later, and an increase in Covid-19 death rates about two months later

The study does not prove cause and effect, but the findings square with other research showing that masks prevent infection and that indoor spaces foster the spread of the virus through aerosols, tiny respiratory particles that linger in the air.

Another important paragraph:


The findings in this report are subject to at least three limitations. First, although models controlled for mask mandates, restaurant and bar closures, stay-at-home orders, and gathering bans, the models did not control for other policies that might affect case and death rates, including other types of business closures, physical distancing recommendations, policies issued by localities, and variances granted by states to certain counties if variances were not made publicly available. Second, compliance with and enforcement of policies were not measured. Finally, the analysis did not differentiate between indoor and outdoor dining, adequacy of ventilation, and adherence to physical distancing and occupancy requirements.

They mention the riot and rapes at Woodstock 1999, but they don’t mention the arson and vandalism theft etc. and extortion at the 1969 Woodstock.

Abbie Hoffman in the black panthers extorted $25,000 from the promoters of Woodstock or otherwise they were going to upset the event. They got their pay off bribe and they still terrorized the event.

Peace love and dope was a lie and a joke.

ALSO the lying rat bastards at the CDC:

Isolating after a positive coronavirus test? The CDC says you can still vote in person.

Every day, tens of thousands of Americans learn they are infected with the novel coronavirus. On Monday alone, another 86,154 new cases were confirmed.

Everyone with covid-19 is supposed to isolate at home to prevent further spread of a disease that has already killed at least 230,000 Americans, but new cases are appearing as voting for the presidential election reaches its final stretch.

Can voters who test positive for the coronavirus still come to the polls on Tuesday?

Yes, says the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which on Sunday published new guidelines noting that sick voters still have the right to cast a ballot...

So our most at risk people — a small minority — can stay out of restaurants or triple-mask. For the rest of us, the symptoms are no more serious than the flu — hardly worth perpetual self isolation.

The CDC never counted cases of H1N1 in 2009. They made 2 wild assed guesses, high and low and settled on the number in between.

They stopped counting in 2009 and switched to guessing in 2009 and 2010.

And you KNOW they didn’t count asymptomatic suspected cases as “H1N1”.

This is all partisan BULLSTALIN.

Not believing a bit of their crap scaremongering. I am very sure they made sure the data provided the conclusions they wanted.

We all need to commit these words to memory.

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

What about "Predictive Programming" , people will become so accustomed to being ordered to speak carefully and wear a mask as they are told, they will not be alarmed at being ordered to wear a phone/monitoring collar that can "protect" them, locate them, entertain them, control them with tazershock or injections, do their business ...."alexa pay my xfinity bill", of course it will have a mask built in, and then they can defund the police too. The security protocols will be pre-programmed into computers and maintain total control through transponders everywhere

If citizens get too close to the Capitol building, the Computerized A.I. Sentry will give them a 30,000 volt shock to the neck as a warning

Studies would have to have followed 2 large groups of people-one group wearing masks, the other group wearing no masks and the study would have to have been done for a period of months.”

Yes. Look up DANMASK-19. It was done overseas. Results? Masks don’t work.

With states beginning to restore liberty, the communist/Democrat Left such as the CDC must step up to this serious threat to their supremacy to develop and implement creative ways to maintain the elevated level of increasingly irrational fear among gullible, ignorant, fearful, cowardly people who comprise a large portion of the American citizenry.
