It's dumbfounding how even people who seem to have some medical knowledge are HORRIBLE at actually tracking news about Covid19.

And then they'll start spouting their "educated" opinion that the virus couldn't do this or that, while being completely uninformed on everything that has been studied and observed about the virus.

Stop fucking treating this like it's the flu virus. It's not. It's an entirely new virus, that infects through a completely different spike protein, and as such, can cause completely different problems.

@alyx i feel like people seem to have collectively forgotten about the sars epidemic, to which it's more similar
@lottev sars epidemic fizzled out without vaccines and global tyranny tho. CDC's patent even explains the majority of cases can't tell SARS from influenza without explicitly diagnosing for it
@lottev i guess you can argue china suppressing release of the info so chinese new year could seed it everywhere was a thing, but even then..

where has influenza gone?

@icedquinn @lottev
>where has influenza gone
If you're really serious about this, I'll have to say GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU COMPLETE DUMBFUCK MORON!

ENTIRE NATIONS HAVE TAKEN MEASURES SPECIFICALLY AIMED TO PREVENT THE SPREAD OF AIRBORNE VIRUSES AND YOU WONDER WHERE THE FLU WENT?!

"YES, I DO WONDER WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED TO THE LESSER INFECTIOUS AIRBORNE VIRUSES AFTER WE TOOK MEASURES TO BLOCK AIRBORNE VIRUSES?"
^THIS IS YOU. THIS IS YOUR DEGREE OF STUPIDITY RIGHT NOW!

@alyx @icedquinn @lottev

Entire nations took measures to stop the spread of aids, but there more gays than ever??? explain this science guy
@alyx @icedquinn most people can also handle influenza just fine, it's a common disease. something like sars is way more invasive
@alyx @icedquinn @lottev The flu vanished here before the mask mandate, before any measures were taken.
Seemingly reporting on COVID-19 caused it to displace the flu.

It's a legitimate concern, and a very suspicious occurrence.
You should not dismiss it out of hand.

Not to mention that you're assuming that masks alone are effective to the point of eliminating over 90% of flue cases around the western world.
That's incredible.
Literally, not credible.
@SystemSock @alyx @icedquinn @lottev People don't pozz each other at mass gatherings anymore. Limit the movement between rural areas and cities (since there is no city to go to anymore, LOL!) and you so little opportunities for the flu, that it only appear in unreliable covid tests.
@maxmustermann @alyx @icedquinn @lottev But COVID still spreads?
Just how much more infectious is it?
Factors of magnitude, if I am to accept your theory.

I'm sorry, that doesn't add up.
And that which is inconsistent can not be the truth.

People violate COVID regulations all the time, several states in the US opened up and see a decline in cases, and still no flu.

Something is wrong with the flu numbers.
I don't know what it is, but I know that it's wrong.

Has COVID displaced the flu, becoming endemic?
Are the numbers fudged?
DO PCR tests even detect what people claim they do (which the inventor disputes).

Some other option?

:shrug_kon:
@SystemSock @alyx @icedquinn @lottev It does for regions who kept the measures I said (isolation of the region and no more super spreaders).

>DO PCR tests even detect what people claim they do

PCR tests detect whatever the hell you want if you interpret the data right. Thi s is why Fauci's view on virology is naive and retarded; You can't put some suspects blood under Microscope and find the virus and and observe it.

<Something is wrong with the flu numbers.
Yes. I already told you that they disappered into the covid numbers.
@alyx @icedquinn @lottev stop shouting. these infrctuon control measures are a joke. they have somewhere between little and negative overall benefit. there's more going on here than what the media and government are telling you

being an ass hole about it doesn't make you right either
