Ahh, 2020 you magnificent $%^& *#$% don’t you ever change.
Well, after all the countries made a mad dash to close down their economies and threaten people to stay home or be harassed by the MAKS MOB, now comes word that the W.H.O. decides that maybe that wasn’t the best plan?
Ya think!?!?!?!?!
Right from the News of Australia down under…
The World Health Organisation has backflipped on its original COVID-19 stance after calling for world leaders to stop locking down their countries and economies.
Dr. David Nabarro from the WHO appealed to world leaders yesterday, telling them to stop “using lockdowns as your primary control method” of the coronavirus.
He also claimed that the only thing lockdowns achieved was poverty – with no mention of the potential lives saved.
“Lockdowns just have one consequence that you must never ever belittle, and that is making poor people an awful lot poorer,” he said.
“We in the World Health Organisation do not advocate lockdowns as the primary means of control of this virus,” Dr Nabarro told The Spectator.
“The only time we believe a lockdown is justified is to buy you time to reorganise, regroup, rebalance your resources, protect your health workers who are exhausted, but by and large, we’d rather not do it.”
Now, I’m not a highly paid super duper influential medical genius like Dr. Faucci or the rest of you people who were just Pez dispensers for quotes from those fine folks like the good Dr. Tony. Yet, I do like to have lots of data in front of me and plod through it. You know, like a horse that plows through the stuff that comes out of its south end and lays in a field.
Right from the onset, it was assumed that this virus had been here since at least late October and definitely November and December of 2019. We didn’t have any rash incidents of people just keeling over dead and the country was never panicked. Once the media got the green light to hit the panic button THAN we have people that are going to work and dying minutes later. Which of course caused the reaction of people going and hoarding toilet paper.
Total cause and effect right there.
Common sense tells you that if we have on an annual basis 60,000 to 120,000 people a year die from the flu which we have a vaccine than something that sure acts like the flu could have the same effect. The way to counter this is to do what the CDC originally suggested.
*Wash your hands more often you dirty heathens
*Don’t stand right on top of each other in public places. Give some breathing room.
*Don’t cough or sneeze openly but cover your mouth, preferably with a coat or a shirt.
The masks I’m sure offer assistance but as of now, we don’t truly know how much. The Pez Dispenser spewed number is a 70% reduction of catching the Corona. Yet they don’t explain why the 30% fail rate and this is just as important. Is it because of the quality of the mask and material or how long a mask should be worn? I’m willing to bet that is a big part but we just don’t want to do the hard work here of research. The easier route is just make it up as you go along and act really really smart about it.
We all know that panic sells but in this case, it closed the world economy, and as Dr. David Nabarro correctly pointed out it has caused bigger problems than the problem it was trying to solve. I don’t bring this up to gloat but to point out a very simple fact. We had better start doing a helluva lot more critical thinking than crazy emoting because the latter is going to get a whole lot of people killed. In fact, I think it has.
Hopefully, this is the beginning of people slowly coming to their senses and actually using their God-given intelligence to rationally think this and other things we face.
On the other hand, who am I kidding, we are just 22 days away from the election here so I know that is not possible.
Back to the PANIC bubble people and GET YOUR TOILET PAPER NOW.
