It looks like in much of the world the criteria to end the lockdown revolves around the percentage of tests that are positive. The WHO recommends the lockdowns stay in place until the percentage of positive tests goes below 5%. According to John’s Hopkins much of the US is over 5% except for much of the Northeast which is under 5%. https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/testing/individual-states/connecticut
The issue with these tests is that perhaps 90% of positives have so little virus that the person is both asymptomatic and not contagious. https://www.google.com/amp/s/m.economictimes.com/news/science/is-your-coronavirus-test-positive-maybe-it-shouldnt-be-/amp_articleshow/77831794.cms These tests are too sensitive and provide false positives. This is causing needless quarantines and, going back to the paragraph above, causing a continuation of the lockdowns. Republican governors are so scared to “reject the science” that they are holding to nonsense WHO standards and faulty CV tests.
I just want a Republican politician to say that he rejects the science because the scientists are full of crap.
Ping. Freepmail Impimp to go on the ping list.
One of my daughters, aged 39, and her husband both got the virus and got sick. Flu-like symptoms. But here is the thing: They are political liberals.
So, I asked her if she got her doctor to prescribe hydroxychloroquine and she snapped back that she will not take that stuff.
She’ll be fine because of her age and her diet, etc. But her attitude proves that politics could have killed her (if she was not so healthy).
This hoax appears to running its course. Expect for the empire to strike back before the election with a fresh round of scare porn. Meanwhile, Twitter deleted a post by the President when all he did was quote the CDC.
