We fight yearly flu with vaccines. You are comfortable with giving all this life or death advice and opinions on COVID-19 and pandemics yet freely admit you know nothing abour the common cold. You even think the flu comes "every year or two"(your words).Really? How does it prove that?You are 100% wrong and the exact opposite of your claims are fact. Empirical data accurately proves shutdowns and lockdowns work and if herd immunity for Corona viruses worked no one would ever get common colds, which are caused by a coronavirus. The reason is known to science. Some viruses, Coronaviruses included, are able to change and adapt.Not one shred of evidence exists proving the shutdown is a viable concept for this kind of virus.Not one shred of evidence exists proving herd immunity is a viable concept for this kind of virus.LOLHealth professions in Ga are already building temporary hospitals to handle the surge they are expectingOver all numbers will go hgher as more and more testing is done. The real metric of this disease are the numbers of new hosptializations and those have not climbed. So the majority of those being affected are those that have little or no symptoms when they get this disease.Here's another nail in the shutdown coffin. I predict this shutdown will last only a few more weeks.
In late April Dr. Tony Fauci made it clear he opposed the decision by Georgia Governor Brian Kemp to lift the lockdown orders in his state. “If I were advising the governor, I would tell him he should be careful. Going ahead and leapfrogging into phases where you should not be … I would advise him not to do that.”But Dr. Fauci was wrong again. In fact, it starting to look like this guy is NEVER right about anything? It must be nice having a government job and not have to worry about getting fired!Fauci and the critics were all wrong. Today Georgia Governor Brian Kemp announced on Saturday the lowest number of COVID-19 positive patients currently hospitalized statewide (1,203) since hospitals began reporting this data on April 8th and the lowest total of ventilators in use.Today marks the lowest number of COVID-19 positive patients currently hospitalized statewide (1,203) since hospitals began reporting this data on April 8th.Today also marks the lowest total of ventilators in use (897 with 1,945 available).
Wrong. Fauci is right.
Number of new cases on May 9th: 419
Number of new cases on May 10th: 886

They began expanding their capacity months ago. They understand that it will spike the cases to a certain level but as the population becomes immune to it the rate of infections will drop and the needs will also drop. Absent a vaccine there is only one way to beat a pathogen, its called herd immunity. Staying at home prolongs this process but you will still become infected. Its time to stop hiding from this virus and beat it. With 98% of the populace not having a problem with getting this virus and becoming immune we can protect those who are most at risk and still get on with life.
Herd immunity, on the other hand, is a well established concept supported by centuries of empirical data.
You're understanding is obviously wrong because herd immunity requires that a certain people contract the virus. I don't know how colds work, but we have flu every year or two because a new strain comes out every year or two. I believe the as me thing happens with colds, but they are much less serious so no one panics about it.
People like you or anyone else with little medical knowledge should shut up and stop fantasizing about being scholarly and of high ranging intelligence. You are giving dangerous and poor advice and opinions. Think about it, you are advising on Coronavirus and admitting you know nothing about the common cold.
I don't take flu shot vaccines. The cell lines are often contaminated in these vaccines and most never work either. They actually damage the cells. As far as a vaccine for the cold virus, there are too many strains. The current virus has already mutated into several different strains. Even if they did find a vaccine I wouldn't take it. The cell lines in the serum have been contaminated and consist mainly of animal cells. No thanks. I'll trust my immune system over some scientist mixing up some dangerous wonder cure concoction full of contaminated junk.
