Title: Here comes the Chicken Littles of the world
Post by: President-Elect Bob Noel on April 13, 2022, 05:46:45 AM
Oh No!  covid cases are "climbing" and "spiking"

how many of those cases are actually symptomatic?

how many of those cases actually have serious symptoms?

The positive test rate is over 5% - oh no!  who is tested and why?


Waaaaaay too many don't understand percentages.

This is just getting us ready for the Omicron++ version, coming in October.  That's when we must lock down, stay home, and vote by mail early and often.

Simple.   Stop testing.   Problem solved.

I have an cow-orker that I've spoken of before, real germophobe. Gets tested at the slightest sniffle, and yells at me when I have a sniffle. Can't believe i don't want to be tested and don't want to know.

I really could give a flying fuck. If I'm sick enough to see a doctor, I'll see a doctor, otherwise who gives a shit what gave me the sniffle.

When old bitches like Pelosi get Covid and are back at work within days, this is a cold or flu, not a deadly disease. People need to get the fuck over it. People die of the cold and flu every year. This should be no different.

When my husband was working, if I got the sniffles and tested myself for Covid and it was positive, he would have had to stay home from work for two weeks, according to company mandate, even if he never got sick.  I’d rather not know.  Thank goodness he’s retired now and I won’t have to face that moral dilemma.  There were some people at work that abused that, for the extra paid “sick leave”.

The stay at home lockdowns have enabled a whole lot of laziness and we will pay a massive price in the form of inflation, food shortages, travel problems, maybe even power fluctuations.  You don’t tell a nation to go home and not bother working for two years over a disease with a 1% death rate. That is crystal clear now. Will TPTB learn the lesson?  Hell no.  They learned that they can use it to buy an election.  That’s all that matters. Destroying the economy, driving the middle class down into poverty, massively increasing the crime rate, suicide and drug addiction, none of that matters to them, just winning an election.

Exactly.  I got pretty sick a couple weeks ago.  Thought about getting tested, but then decided not.  If I have covid then I'll stay home and get better.  If I don't have covid then I'll stay home and get better.  Testing doesn't change my behavior any so why bother?

If everyone tested all the time then 5% would be nothing significant. Especially if no one is getting seriously ill. If only sick people got tested then 5% would be an indication that not all sickness is covid and covid is nothing special.  Yeah... people don't understand percentages and even fewer care to look at the data and how it was collected.

I got sick last week on Saturday on our cruise. Not covid. Usually, I would take some Nyquil, good night sleep, and I would be good in the morning. Still fighting it. I think all this lockdown bullshit has weakened our immune systems (by design) so snake oil salesman (big pharma) can continue to make billions on false promises of fake cures.

Does anyone doubt that big pharma along with Pope Tony haven't already been working on a new virus, and also working on a vaccine for that new virus to launch it this fall?

 Take a good luck at Shanghai right now.  That's the preview for things to come.

Yes. I doubt big pharma is working on releasing a virus which can kill people just so they can sell a vaccine.  The idea of that is ridiculous.
No... just sick enough and transmissible enough so they are justified in locking everyone down.  The virus itself can't survive if it kills its host.  Like Pope Tony and Big Pharma and Big Government can't survive if it kills the population.  They have to make it just scared enough to obey.

Waaaaaay too many don't understand percentages.

The positive test rate (in Rhode Island) was 2.4% six weeks ago.  Last reported, it's 5.2%, so it has almost doubled.  There is a clear upward swing in the curve.  So far it's isolated to the north east, but it's clearly spreading out. 

The symptoms are very similar to the previous variant, which is to say similar to the flu.

Yeah. And they keep adding more symptoms to the list.

Changes to the positive test rate are meaningless unless you know about both the numerator and denominator

2.4% of 100,000 tests would be 2400 positives

5.2% of 10000 tests would 520 positives.  which, of course, would be a good trend instead of time to PANIC

manipulate the numerator and/or denominator to manipulate the message...

That presumes that people are testing at the same rate. Are they?  I don’t know about the coasts, but here in the Midwest this thing is over. People who get sick aren’t testing. Why bother?  The treatment would be the same. Employers have stopped tracing or even asking people to rekey if they’re positive. Just stay home, like any other sickness.

If people have modified their approach to testing, and are now only getting tested if they are really sick, then the positive rate may not really be increasing.

Example. If 1,000 people got tested in February, 24 of them would be sick. Now if only 500 get tested in April, 26 of them would be sick. Basically no increase in cases, even though the rate is increasing.

Saw what you did there.

Frankly, if not for the insane media and the complicit politicians forcing shutdowns and masks, I would never have known there was a "novel" disease going around.

I hardly pay any attention to the media anymoree, I swore off on it when I woke up Nov 4, 2020.

No matter what the lying ass pussies claim, everything about the scamdemic is about the politics and not public health.

Yes, the other day they added nine new symptoms, all those of regular colds. But this fits with their goal of making us all afraid, ultimately, of anyone who is breathing. Scarily, that fear has gained much ground in 2020-present.

Don't be surprised when someone leaks the news that the shadow government has been killing innocents to bulk up their narrative.

 The scamdemic has always been about hijacking the government and holding power at any cost.

Democrat communists couldn't care less who they kill - they LOVE killing the un and recently born, after all.

Using the corrupted fbi and doj, to support the lies of fauci and his nazi friends, the chinese have hijacked everything good and made virtually every organ of government their bitch, starting with the senile imposter.
