You're actually calling for the same thing I am, except that I don't think masks are terribly important.Yeah, I know. I'm not the one calling for the intentional spread of the virus to kill hundreds of thousands.

No. I'm not calling for herd immunity or saying it's a goal.You're actually calling for the same thing I am, except that I don't think masks are terribly important.
What do you think the controlled spread you're advocating for accomplishes?I'm not calling for herd immunity or saying it's a goal.
It doesn't achieve herd immunity. It's rolling lockdowns until a vaccine. It's limiting the spread of the virus so as many people don't get it as possible, without locking everyone in their homes until there is a vaccine. Herd immunity is 60% of the population getting infected. That's absolutely not a goal.What do you think the controlled spread you're advocating for accomplishes?
The disease spreads fast and you're 2 years from a vaccine.It doesn't achieve herd immunity. It's rolling lockdowns until a vaccine.
It is, you just don't know it yet.That's absolutely not a goal.
Different behavior and vastly different cultures, different COVID outcomes.maybe they aren't mislabeling deaths?
ya, your probably rightDifferent behavior and vastly different cultures, different COVID outcomes.
Party on the beach and race riot vs sensible behavior and universal mask wearing.

Case Study Shows Asymptomatic Transmission of COVID-19 in China
Transmission of COVID-19 appears to be possible even among people who show no symptoms of the disease, according to a case study of a family cluster in China.www.contagionlive.com
150,000 people die a day on this planet
It gets muddy because we don't know the viral load of the asymptotic subjects in your study.![]()
A study on infectivity of asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 carriers - PubMed
In summary, all the 455 contacts were excluded from SARS-CoV-2 infection and we conclude that the infectivity of some asymptomatic SARS-CoV-2 carriers might be weak.pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
muddy waters my friends
the study has 8 people in it lolIt gets muddy because we don't know the viral load of the asymptotic subjects in your study.
I'm not sure where I heard it but I'm pretty sure it's 7.It gets muddy because we don't know the viral load of the asymptotic subjects in your study.
source?7,564 deaths per day in the US , stats based on pre corona. Now add corona deaths of 4,517 per day (as of May 11).
Can we really afford to keep that up?
Maybe.and your study has 8 people in it lol
didn't you question my link to a study of 4-5 people two days ago?
Is viral load measured throughout "your study"? Or just a single time per person.Maybe.
It was only 8 people but it allowed it to be very detailed: precise on times of contact and with who, they recorded symptoms and time of onset, and had labs (such as the viral load of each patient including viral loads of the asymptotic and the critically ill) and radiology to report. I'd think that type of information just makes it more useful.
Rather than, 455 people tested negative after coming into contact with someone who was asymptotic and tested positive for covid. But we don't know if he had any viral load at the time of contact.
Yes
What is our other option?
This.The large number of patients infected with the virus who show few or no symptoms—estimated to be as high as 80% — complicates fighting the disease, forcing health care workers worldwide to shift their focus from containing the disease to mitigation, a recent report noted.
Helping providers in this effort, the National Institutes of Health has added a section to its website to provide training to those at risk of exposure to the virus on techniques, policies and procedures to help reduce the risk.
Are you referring to my study? It tells you where and how and on what date they came into contact with the first known subject.Is viral load measured throughout "your study"? Or just a single time per person.
Lotta variables aren't clear. Interesting Study.
The 455 person study seems do defy the information that the media has been informing the population, and goes against the study you posted in some ways...unless we think they all got it from being in extremely close space with each other in quarantine or normal living quarters/
Battle of the studies...3 2 1 Battle!
No seriously it is interesting all the different studies/"science"/spin that is being put out right now...We don't know what is exactly credible or not and the sheer volume of varying opinions by "experts" is impressive also.
Hence me using the phrase Muddy Waters
I don't have a lockdown I only work and go to the woods for fun...and the occasional concert...Bummed that Slightly Stoopid W/Don Carlos got cancelled, that hurtsThis.
fight for your lockdown lifted if you want.
Help by providing good information for those at risk to help protect them.
I had a cook out this weekend (only 10 people, I swear) and when the subject came up I just listened. Everybody had heard or believed something different.
Any position, someone could come up with something to back their belief.
It was crazy. Lol
source?
and the answer is yes
The show must go on
Yep they should have continued the lockdown because one person tested positive and followed all the correct protocols.This seems just a tad politically hypocritical.

Pennsylvania Democrats: GOP Lawmaker’s Positive COVID-19 Test Kept Secret For A Week
“They yelled and screamed about it being safe for others across the state to gather, while they were testing positive," state Rep. Brian Sims said.huffp.st
Just a tad.
Namaste
