Scandal of the decade?

Post by Gary Childress »

I've heard that all the advice the surgeon general and WHO have been giving us on not wearing masks is actually misguided (or maybe out right lies would be an appropriate description) because masks DO HELP STOP THE SPREAD. They're just in short supply so we're being told the opposite. Instead of asking us not to hoard facemasks we were lied to. I knew something was wrong because while they were saying not to wear masks they were also saying that health care workers should wear them. Apparently, we even sent many of our own supply of masks to China when the epidemic first broke out. I suspect some people may lose their jobs over how all this was handled.

Travel data of passengers arriving in the United States from China during the critical period in December, January and February, when the disease took hold in that country, shows a stunning 759,493 people entered the U.S.

"This is an astonishing number in a short period of time, illustrating how globalized our world has become. Just as people can hop continents with amazing ease, the infections they carry can too," said Dr. Vinayak Kumar, an internal medicine resident at the Mayo Clinic and a contributor to the ABC News Medical Unit.

Those travelers from China included more than 228,000 Americans returning home and hundreds of thousands of Chinese nationals arriving for business, academics, tourism or to visit family.

It's just an idea.

I don't know anything except to latch on to a belief, aka an idea.

What is an idea? ...I have absolutely no idea, except what is imagined. :lol: :roll:

In the grand scheme of things, nothing ever happened. What is the evidence of nothing.

Now you see me now you don't...where do you go to my lovely... :mrgreen:

Oh, here's another 'idea'. It was created by a secret society of gerentophobes who want to eliminate old people because of the burden they are to society. Or, the virus is actually an intelligent alien species that just wants to 'say hello' and this was the only way it could think of, due to the fact that it was too small for us to see.

Mate ...of course!! It was obvious from the outset! How does 3 people in a room, 1 with the virus and 2 without AND 2 of any of them wearing face masks not help stop a spread?

How does some barrier - of any sort...make things worse? - so long as they are replaced or sterilised somehow.

It has been admitted that they were attempting to stop people - the average joe hoarding from the people that actually need it the most.

:idea: moment arising...

How about vacinating all those bats and other weird creatures the chinese people like to meddle with. That way those pecky little parasites would eventually become immune also. Then hopefully there would be no more bed sharing. The parties over so to speak.
