For instance, we're told that 80% of people who contacted the virus are asymptomatic or have very mild symptoms and that they are still contagious in that condition and can spread the virus to others .......


Now, considering that about half the workforce is still out there working in essential jobs, would you not think that there would be millions of these asymptomatic people spreading the virus at places like the grocery store, Lowe's, and other service related jobs that require interactions with the public and other employees?

Why is it all these asymptomatic carriers can be out there and we're still not seeing the numbers of infected that were predicted?



I'm sure there are a myriad of other things that make people go hmmmmmm.......



Edit:

Mods, please edit the thread title, it was supposed to be "Do you" not "So you".

Here FatBob - I am following this doctor since January, before anyone was paying attention to the unfolding events somewhere in China here in the US.
This is his latest video.

Listen closely what he has to say about this virus.
The reason why we don't understand much about it, is precisely because it's a "novel" virus.
We are in uncharted territory.

Another example of "WTF" from the media.

What else are they suppose to say, now that they've discovered that sick owners can pass this virus to their pets?

What else they can advise but "social distancing" with pets?

Of course it sounds silly, but what's the solution?


(It looks so far that animals have it in a much milder version, when infected.)

The biggest issue I'm having with all of this is how their only treatments to this seems to be ventilators, and a vaccine. If anyone else experiments with any other treatment, it's shunned and banned. I've never seen anything like this before. It's a novel virus, meaning, it's new. So there's not much data on it yet.

I mean, the FBI raided a doctor for treating patients with Vitamin C. Like WTF?

But yet, they keep pushing the only solution is a vaccine...even though a vaccine has never been successful for a coronavirus before.

We were told for weeks that cats and dogs can't catch it.

i am starting to wonder why SCIENTISTS that don't agree with the approved perspective are being SHUT UP.
And links to the scientific articles from 2013-2015 and on describing the "gain of function" research done ( in the US and in China, and funded by the NIH) on this virus now showing only "webpage not available".

It was put out first that this is a new virus, hence the term "novel", and that as they study it and as findings comes in, what we know about it will change.

Sort of like how could all of our military leaders completely miss the upcoming insurgency that happened in Iraq after Saddam was toppled. I mean these are suppose to be the most experienced, well educated military leaders in the world, yet totally missed all the indicators for the insurgency brewing. But as facts came in, the leader adjusted tactics to combat the insurgency.

The actions taken are working, but as predicted, if they worked, people will be calling the whole thing BS, if they did not work, they would be calling the experts BS, a no win for experts making their recommendations.

So, in your referenced story, exactly what experiment were they conducting? it is a medical spa, not a medical research hospital/institute. They were falsely advertising Vitamin C can cure, yet there are no facts to back this up, essentially, they were peddling snake oil.

So... are they keeping the truth from us to avoid a mass panic or to avoid mass apathy and loss of fear? It sounds like the latter.
