    This "analysis" is a bunch of one-sided whinging about "the rich," "corporations," and whatever "-ists" he can think of.

    No solutions whatsoever, about what I'd expect from a guy who lives in the womb of academia and never ran anything.

    COVID is a mind fuck, the hysteria, the precautions, and that so called vaccine are all more harmful than the COVID virus.

    The Covid hysteria ended because the virus mutated into a milder and more transmissible form. The most recent 7-day average number of deaths for the disease here in the U.S. is 316 a day. That's about one in a million people dying daily. As has been true since the beginning of this epidemic, the average age of death for someone catching Covid is 77. This is also the segment of the elderly population in the worst health. It's likely most of the people dying from Covid would have died within a year anyway. People under 60 have over a 99.7% survival rate.

    This type of virus almost always mutates into a milder and more transmissible form because of evolutionary pressure. A virus that mutated into a more virulent and less transmissible form would kill its hosts before they could pass the disease on to others. Covid is joining the 1918 Spanish flu, 1957 Asian flu and 1968 Hong Kong flu as something most people don't need to worry about. Only people over 65 still might want to consider getting the vaccine. For others, the long-term risks of the vaccine likely exceed the benefits. Insurance and funeral industry statistics show an increase in mortality among the largely vaccinated U.S. population. This may not be due to the vaccine but the reluctance of U.S. government health agencies to investigate this lead one to think they are afraid of what they might find if they did investigate. Many younger people have already had Covid and have natural immunity so it would be especially unwise for them to get the vaccine, especially since the boosters have decreasing effectiveness the more that are received while the negative side effects increase the more boosters that are received.

    Covid is deadly and spreading again. It's evading vaccines and treatments. Opposition to fighting the pandemic are based on far right populist politics. Nothing else. The US continues to put profits before people

    Covid is a nuisance, nothing more. And all the more so with this newest quite harmless stain. The precautions do more harm than the virus and the so called vaccine should not even exist.

    Vaccines don't work. There's no cure. And for many it's a death sentence
  • Tetradon

    The vaccines work very well at preventing severe disease. That was the original rationale of shutdowns, "two weeks to flatten the curve." Fact is, even before the vaccine, people were sick of being cooped up.

    Viruses mutate. There's no cure for the flu or the common cold or HIV either. It's going to keep mutating, and we're going to have to go about our daily lives. It's all in hindsight.

    It's ironic that it takes a pandemic to show Americans they can have health care access. Rent moratoriums. Access to viable unemployment benefits.

    Then thanks to business sector pressure. The gov caved in and portrayed people as lazy and undeserving of said benefits. And the push to get rid of all benefits and mitigation efforts began. While the gov did nothing against those profiteering from the pandemic and cheating the system with fraudulent ppp and other business loans. It's a huge lesson and setback in the class war
  • Tetradon
    2 years ago
    The business sector told people not to like being cooped up?

    I suppose that's why the CCP sent out drones in Shanghai telling people to "control their desires for freedom."

    Hint, Icee. Whenever you feel compelled to talk politics, just bite it back. Smoke a J until the urge subsides. You never make a lick of sense.

    Right, Icee, which is why that desire to be out and about needed to be suppressed around the world, because of the American business sector.

    Guess what. The more money gets tossed about, the more politically-connected hands are going to catch it. Amazon and Wal-Mart set revenue records during the pandemic, while small businesses got the shaft. I know Pimp Logic(TM) doesn't distinguish between the two as "Evil Corporations," but trust me, the former didn't need the help.

    China has shown how unfeasible and totalitarian a "zero COVID" policy is. Viruses don't have borders.

    We've done all the shutdowns we need, except those needed to keep SJG off the internet.
  • Icee Loco (asshole)
    2 years ago
    The Chinese are doing a great job at saving lives. The US on the other hand has over 1 million dead.

    Small businesses gutted and defrauded the ppp program. And were more guilty of price gouging. And now try to work with skeleton crews to fuck employees over for a few bucks. Businesses are not the victims.

    If you believe the Chinese COVID figures, I've got some oceanfront property in Nebraska I'd like to sell you.

    A million Americans have died _with_ COVID, not of COVID. We've got car accidents marked as COVID deaths because the deceased had tested positive.

    Small businesses took it on the chin while Amazon and Wal Mart posted record profits. Government rewards size. Never thought you'd be cheerleading for those two as champions of the little guy, but your logic has always been incomprehensible.

    Icee you have a bias against landlords and strip club clients. You’ve admitted to if before, you seem to assume the wealthier person is always wrong. Rent moratoriums are a form of legalized theft. Lapdances are also a potential form of legalized theft if you promise something and don’t deliver. Legalized doesnt mean morally sound. If you can admit legalized slavery and racism were wrong then you can admit legalized theft is wrong

    Icey, as the COVID hysteria started in March 2020, and then kept extending, I encountered many people who really believed in the scare, and they believed in the lockdown and the masking and they were gung-ho for that so called vaccine. And I found people like this online too.

    In the time since I have learned with a number of these that they are on psychiatric medication. And there does seem to be some relation to how they are thinking.

    1% mortality per year minimum, otherwise the mean life expectancy would be exceeding 100 years, and we know that is not so.

    So for the whole country 10,000 deaths per day. COVID has never made a significant increase is. And right now, with this newest strain, it is not doing much of anything.

    Want to lower mortality? Well Anthony Fauci takes vitamin D supplements, but he never recommends that.

    Vitamin C and D supplements, and loose some weight.

    People outside the CDC found good treatment drugs, stuff used for other illnesses which are known safe and very low cost. They believe that they could eliminate all hospitalization and COVID death.

    Universal Health Care to bring down the rates of the big chronic conditions, obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, kidney disease, heart disease. Universal health care increases life expectancy and reduces infant mortality.

    And that so called vaccine, correlates to high case, high hospitalization, and death rate. It's just that the US suppresses the data.

    Seeing our nation go berserk and precautions that destroyed retail business was traumatic. And there was no reason for this. COVID was never that dangerous, and the precautions did not work anyway.

    But COVID has been an epidemic of superstitious and irrational fear. And this is not over until we have that so called vaccine off of the market.

    ^ Nope. Virus mutated again. Most cases are Omicron which the vaccines provide only slight protection from.

    Pick up a biology textbook alongside the statistics textbook, rather than post everything you've read on the internet here. It might make you a more interesting person, too.
  • san_jose_guy
    2 years ago
    We know that the so called vaccine was not intended to work against Omicron. But it was still correlating with high case, hospital admissions, and death rates.

    And it screws up natural immunity. Natural immunity gives you broader protection, more likely on new strains.

    ^ No, in clinical trials it reduced severity and death rates. That is what you want in order to build up "natural immunity." It's hard to build that up when you're dead.

    FDA has tried to say it will take 55 years to release the clinical trial data.

    "
    The plaintiffs, a group of more than 30 professors and scientists from universities including Yale, Harvard, UCLA and Brown, filed suit in September in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, seeking expedited access to the records. They say that releasing the information could help reassure vaccine skeptics that the shot is indeed “safe and effective and, thus, increase confidence in the Pfizer vaccine.”

  • san_jose_guy

    Very few people have died because of COVID.

    And the vaccines have made this worse.

    The best response to these viral infections like Mono, Flu, and COVID, common cold is sleep.

    But they also do now have a host of treatment drugs which are very effective. It is just that the CDC is not supporting their use. And it should be with doctor's supervision. These are drugs long proven safe. So if you can get to a doctor who prescribes them, do so.

    Over the two years of COVID our normal death rate would have been 7 million.

    COVID did not make a big increase in this, very small.

    The risk to most people from COVID was about the risk of getting struck by lightening, or getting killed crossing the street.

    If one wanted to still better manage this risk and the risk to elderly and the very sick, Medicare For All.

    And those doctors who disregarded Fauci and developed treatment regimes largely eliminated all serious COVID cases or cases requiring hospitalization.

    I don't like Republican either. That is why I did not participate in the first recall against Newsom.

    Either he resigns shortly after the Nov election and the Lt. Governor takes over, or he will be recalled.

    And how could this be, an election going one way and then another right after going the other way. It is because of low voter turn out. It is not how people vote. There are not that many people who could vote either way. It is because of who shows up to vote.

    Cruz Bustamante would have been a fine Governor. But in a recall against Gray Davis the voter turn out was such that he could not win.

    COVID is not a health threat, just an example of public idiocy.
