Are health officals misleading the public? (daycares, transfer, water)

[Arcos]

I’m a progressive. I’m fine with it. There are pros and cons. Ultimately it's a judgement call while cases are fairly low and, more importantly, hospitalization is not an issue.

As for the decision itself, a single court’s opinion has all kinds of procedures to go through if appealed, but again, it’s pretty low stakes, at this point.

However, you are not counted as a COVID-19 death if you die with no symptoms of COVID-19.



Poor compliance with mitigation measures.

How is Fauci "padding his wallet"?



This is the kind of third hand information that gets misinformation spread far and wide. They may be wealthy. That does not mean they understand infectious diseases.

It's the why and how they are wealthy. It's that he's working at the top of a system that employees doctors, nurses, researchers, scientists... and actuaries... For this reason I value this individual's opinion more than the misinformation I see reported in the media.

Sorry but not such thing as "cases" anymore. Sever cases and hospitalizations is what matters and they are at the lowest levels since early 2020. Also, the goal now is not to slow the spread, it's to keep people out of the hospitals, so wearing masks to protect others makes no sense anymore. Do you realize most cases were never reported?

I would even go further than that.
Not only were most cases never reported lots of people never knew that they had it.

I know 2 that tested positive and they had no idea.

We have a family pod where the kids and hubby got it twice but the mom didn’t.
She didn’t want to waste time for a test so she never got one and says she never had it.

I think the percentage of people that have been exposed and infected well passes 90%.

Just a few minutes ago the news said the administration was unhappy about the new mask ruling on airlines.
This reaction is following the science?

[Botev1912]

They estimate that only about 7% of positive cases in the US are being detected -- suggesting that the case rates are 14.5 times higher than reported.

Like stocks and kick backs to promote their vaccine. And the Covid vaccine is not the only drug he has promoted in the past for profit.

Read 'The Real Anthony Fauci' by Robert F Kennedy Jr who is a democrat.

His book is on the NYT bestsellers list for a reason.
Many people died with covid not because of covid.

I would not read JFK, Jr.'s book if you paid me. The man has blood on his hands. Even his family says he is a kook.

Please list the drug company stocks that Fauci owns and the number of shares.

The basis for the decision is the primary reason, surprised you knew about the decision and the administration’s feelings about it, but not the reason why.

You gave two examples, and one of them was an absolute falsehood. I doubt you Understand what defund the police means, either.

The younger you are the much lower chance of dying from covid.

I took the most recent figure I could find but I'm sure it wasn't as up to date as it could be.

Yeah, as far as I know, I haven't had covid but who knows. I could have had it and didn't know.

I was sick here last month at the nursing facility I'm at and it was frustrating that no one took any interest in it. I could have had covid or norovirus and nobody tested me. In fact, when I was at the hospital for surgery, I was tested twice for covid. No one ever got back to me on that so all I can infer is that I was negative.
