It will look like we overreacted according to one guy.<br />
<br />
How does he get past the simple grassroots, foundational numbers I am discussing?<br />
<br />
To quote him... “the basics apply.”<br />
<br />
If you are going to argue this, I don’t want to be buried in 45 minutes of videos and macro data and graphs that don’t answer the questions.<br />
<br />
How do the lockdowns somehow save lives when the numbers flat out say they don’t?<br />
<br />
Going exactly like they said it would?<br />
<br />
Dude. Fauci first said nothing burger. Then he said 2 million deaths.<br />
<br />
We are simultaneously talking about a vaccine while the WHO says antibodies don’t matter.<br />
<br />
Somehow the numbers on convalescent plasma show promise despite that.<br />
<br />
What scientific consensus are you even quoting?</div>
