Good. So, looting, arson, vandalism, insurrection, physical assaults and murder by BLM and Antifa don't cause covid 19 spikes.Neither will Trump rallies which democrats are desperate to stop. Not happening, democrats. IP: Logged |

I was wondering how they were going to spin this. Funny how all those protests have turned the experts' medical admonitions and edicts topsy-turvy. The article has been carefully worded to promote the idea that the protests did not cause a Covid spike 1) because they were held outdoors 2) and that most protesters wore masks. But, BUT how about the 6 feet social distancing recommendation that was drummed into us, that the protesters did not for the most part adhere to? Yeah, how about THAT? The experts are now sheepishly saying social distancing or lack thereof does not appear to be a factor in the spread of the virus... Well damn!!! At this point, anyone who is gobbling up like gospel anything those so called experts are saying is a mindless sheep.

From the article" quote: Jeffrey Shaman, director of the climate and health program at Columbia University and the author of widely publicized studies on the spread of COVID-19, told me in a phone conversation Wednesday, “I think, personally, that the lion’s share of infection occurs indoors. I think that outdoors, in sunshine, with masks, is a fairly safe environment.”
But for months, we were told to stay the eff indoor, remember? ETA: Not advocating people throw caution to the wind and observe zero precaution. Just saying, take a lot of the so call admonitions with a critical grain of salt. Use your brain people, before believing everything you read. Investigate opposite views of official view. Don't just buy one line of thought hook and sinker that is being fed to us by people because they have degrees and are called scientists. IP: Logged |
