VBF Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 1 hour ago, jerolamo said: the scientists are not sponsored by government, in this liberal wild free market world, scientists AND government AND representative population politics are, majority of them (70% of deputy in self and illegal situation of interest conflicts in EU assembly place), sponsored by industries. And that is the very precise crucial point who imply corrupted decisions and fakes/fear communications. You should read a book titled: "Propaganda" who was writing in USA by capitalists around year 1930 and describe how start the job of "president advisor" and use commercial communication technique (who is based on rhetoric and manipulation knowledge) to be influential with an image of a leader who finally deserve, not a country really, but his own clients who paid for his candidature and propaganda (expensive). So, definitely no: the scientists are not sponsored by government, but by business (and so the corrupted governments), the government authorize them to speak in TV shows... it is very different. Well according to you it's the same.... I've added to what you said above to clarify / interpret it..... "some scientists are not sponsored directly by government, but by business (and so the corrupted governments are at the root of it), the corrupted government authorize them to speak in TV shows" So if the said authorised scientists did not go along with government spin, would they keep their authorisation, do you think? If not, then indirectly, many of the scientists speaking on CV appear to have government sponsorship albeit at "arm's length" And if they're sponsored by business, how does that make us more confident in their impartiality and adherence to true science over profit? I've read your post 3 times @jerolamo and you appear to be wanting to have it both ways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of them would become sick and some would die. Your argument has no logic. Where are the overflowing hospitals? Where are the dead bodies? Umm, this post is about someone who tested positive and is now sick. Rarely during this pandemic have hospitals been overflowing anywhere in the world and I'm fairly certain there are many deaths in LOS daily. They're just not being listed as covid like in the US for example, where deaths from cancer, heart disease, car accidents, etc, provide financial incentives for hospitals to handle covid cases. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not the picture the media and the "experts" and the Covid-choir want you to see. They want to promote 40 million infections which is 0.05% of the population since the first recorded case in China. After 11 1/2 months since the first Covid case and 99.95% of the world's population are just fine. Where is the pandemic that's worth destroying the global economy for? Wow folk - most of us have missed it. You'll get no comparison via the media, only loud and continuous fear-mongering. You computation skills are not great. 40.000.000 of 8.000.000.000 is half a percent =0.5% not 0.05%. You compute like this = 40.000.000 * 100 / 8.000.000.000 = 0.5 %. Per cent means per hundred.

Abmong Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Well if the woman showed symptoms 2 days after coming out of quarantine. There's 2 logical causes. 1) She was infected during quarantine 2) She was infected before quarantine and the tests gave false negatives This points to the 14 days quarantine not being long enough and the tests not being good enough.

Your calculation is right.. but the point of the post was that 99.5% of the world's population are healthy.. actually, as the majority of the 40 million recovered, the number of healthy is even larger. When you consider that WHO states that roughly 800 million had the virus, then the deathrate would fall to 0.23%. Either very few are actually sick (positive tests worldwide) or not as deadly as reported (when adding cases which are not tested as asymptomatic) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Miami007 Posted October 26, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2020 13 hours ago, VBF said: Agree....Further, certainly in UK, anyone who tests positive for CV is regarded as a "case" This Is an emotive description, implying, as it does, a possible worst-case scenario. IMO...a "case" is a person who is sick: ie has symptoms, needs medical attention or worse. They deserve our care and attention. If the definition of "case" was reserved for truly sick people, and those who test positive but are asymptomatic were referred to as (say) "tested and healthy individuals" then the number of "cases" would possibly be far, far lower. Yes, I agree, such individuals can still potentially pass CV on, but that's another issue. But what do I know...I'm not a Scientist sponsored by Government ???? My niece in Europe tested positive for Covid. Absolutely no symptoms and she only found out because she was hanging out with friends after school and one got sick. My BIL is a doctor.. he said that "as long as she is not sick, she is not sick" as my parents and sister were freaking out... Now she is fine and nobody else in the family got infected The media wants us to believe that each positive test results in hospitalization and death... 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my own personal theory on that, but its just that, my theory. In Thailand there is no stigma to wearing masks. The temperature in Tourist areas rarely drops below the high 20's. But IMO by far the biggest factor is social distancing. No shaking hands, no public hugging just a polite wai from a comfortable distance. Thais value their personal space more than any nation I know. Cambodians similar. Born to conform with Covid precautions. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 When I read of some charts and stat to show that the percentage of people who died is small, it means nothing to me as I have had a relative and some friends, who have died of covid. So for the stat and chart people, go to blazes...OKAY! Stick your stats where the sun don't shine.... okay. Do you get my drift?

sirocco Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 POLPOTT, It's great to have your own theory, but are you currently in Thailand? Certainly, in Thailand, the majority of residents wear the masks. I can observe it during my walks, my visits to shopping centers or mini markets. As for distance, I really have doubts when I see, in rare restaurants, people huddled around tables, or huddling against each other to help themselves for the umpteenth time in the salad bars. I regularly receive invitations for parties, I regularly receive photos of these parties. The last photos and the story of a Saturday night party in a large hotel were edifying. Under the guise of the tourism authority and local authorities, a promotion campaign was organized. More than 300 guests were present, without masks, except the waiters, arms around the shoulders of the guests, sticking together to take the photos, the hugs. The total, what.
