Quote
Professor Michael Levitt, who teaches structural biology at the Stanford School of Medicine, won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for "the development of multiscale models for complex chemical systems."


And according to Levitt, coronavirus data show that sweeping lockdown measures were an overreaction that may actually backfire.

Levitt has been analyzing the COVID-19 outbreak from a statistical perspective since January and has been remarkably accurate in his predication. The data show that the outbreak never actually grew exponentially, suggesting harsh lockdown measures, which have drastically impacted the world economy, were probably unnecessary.

No lockdown, no shuttered businesses or elementary schools, no stay-at-home. And no disaster, either.

Spring is in the air, and it is increasingly found in the confident step of the people of Sweden.

With a death rate significantly lower than that of France, Spain, the U.K., Belgium, Italy, and other European Union countries, Swedes can enjoy the spring without panic or fears of reigniting a new epidemic as they go about their day in a largely normal fashion.

Dr. Mike Ryan, the executive director of the World Health Organization’s Emergencies Program, says: “I think if we are to reach a new normal, I think in many ways Sweden represents a future model — if we wish to get back to a society in which we don’t have lockdowns.”

The Swedish ambassador to the U.S., Karin Ulrika Olofsdotter, says: “We could reach herd immunity in the capital” of Stockholm as early as sometime in May. That would dramatically limit spread of the virus.

A month ago, we first wrote about Sweden’s approach, which we said “relies more on calibrated precautions and isolating only the most vulnerable than on imposing a full lockdown.”

This still points to a well orchestrated deep state operation that involved Fauci, at least and maybe Birx also. They had the ear of the President and convinced him to issue the now famous guidelines. Understand, the guidelines did not include shutdowns that was a product of blue states and rhino states. Some real red state Governors followed, but have quickly backed off.  Here in Georgia, we have not yet seen a spike. The 14 day moving average is still down. https://dph.georgia.gov/covid-19-daily-status-report (https://dph.georgia.gov/covid-19-daily-status-report)  Won't work in FireFox, use Chrome or maybe Edge.

Didn't grow Exponentially! I'd like to know what that guy's been smoking!  I know a fucking logarithmic curve when I see one.(https://static01.nyt.com/images/2020/04/02/upshot/up-europe1-1585774977171/up-europe1-1585774977171-superJumbo.png)

Or maybe the TESTING went up logarithimically?    ::)

Duh, Michael.  That is really dumb.

I hope you have better scientific integrity than to look at a very small portion of data...nevermind ignoring how the number of cases is a function of the number of tests performed.

btw - Are you ever going to answer the questions regarding how long it should take to develop a serological test?
