the two maskless people I saw in  a Walmart in northern IL were very attractive young women.
Rite of spring.

There's no power on earth that can stop the mating ritual. Short shorts are right around the corner.

Yet incredibly a month and a half ago the Bay Area was in a major surge and the ICU availability was 0.7%. Was this universal dutiful behavior you describe part of the response to that major surge? What were people doing leading up the surge? Holiday parties perhaps?

True this - but even during this surge - the Bay Area was still at under half the rate of San Diego, Kern, Fresno et all

So if we say that universally - this happened in the entire country - people in the US decided to not give a shit from Halloween to New Year's, this was not unique to the Bay Area. Even at the pinnacle in CA, the Bay Area topped out in the 60/100k, a rate that several entire states spent months at.

Pointing out that surge ignores that if SF were a state, the rate per 100k - 3800 - is better than every state except Maine, Oregon, Vermont, and Hawaii. This huge surge caused CA to pass Vermont. Wow

Claims cases and deaths are back on the upswing. Either statistical noise or a fourth wave?

I’m starting to see more and more people in more and more places without masks the past couple weeks. Including Walmart, other grocers, a post office today where no one except me had a mask on, and especially convenient stores. This has been observed in various parts of Illinois and Indiana. I found it interesting that the two maskless people I saw in  a Walmart in northern IL were very attractive young women. Not really the stereotype.

And I don’t know if you missed it or not but I posted a couple weeks ago about being in southern Indiana and the restaurants and bars being clear full and live music etc. From what I gather children under a certain age don’t even have to wear masks in most places in Indiana except in school.

There are also places that have strict rules.
It apparently doesn’t take that much social distancing to stop the spread of the flu.

What’s the alternative, that medical professionals are lying and calling flu cases “Covid”? Why would anyone think they would do this? And why would anyone think there wouldn’t be 1000 whistleblowers in that situation?

No, it’s exactly what should happen. Covid is many times more infectious than the flu. We take drastic measures to prevent Covid spread, which almost completely knocks out the much less contagious flu.

I don’t understand. You’re clearly not an idiot. How is this so difficult for you to understand?

But i thought covid was only spreading because rednecks and others werent following the precautions?   They, would still get the flu... and spread it... youre so close to understanding my guy, so close!

You need to research exactly what the results of a PCR test provide

I don’t think his thought process suddenly changed when he moved to Nevada he got out of Chicago because of his thought process
No, I don’t think the thought process has to change. If you are not surrounded by diverse opinions, it’s easy to go off the deep end. Hence “Nevada is rotting your brain.”

Hopefully it’s a reporting issue.   From the COVID Tracking Project:

“Many data-watchers are understandably concerned about the recent uptick in national reported cases. A closer look at the national figures shows simultaneous wobbles in tests, cases, and deaths—a clue that this is likely a reporting issue, not a turnaround.”

“Current hospitalizations—always our most stable metric during reporting disruptions—are also continuing to drop.”

“As we noted in yesterday’s weekly update, we think the likeliest cause of some or all of this data wiggle is the combination of President’s Day reporting disruptions and the massive winter storms in mid-February.”

None of this means we should be complacent – we need more vaccinations and should continue to follow public safety guidelines.

If I’m so close, then help me out. Imagine that you are me, someone who doesn’t harbor the delusion that I, with just a little bit of internet research, can uncover a huge flaw in the national medical diagnostic system that is eluding brilliant people who dedicate their lives to studying disease. Someone who believes that if it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, it’s a duck, and not a cat paid by George Soros.

The best I can find is some dude named Knut Wittkowski, a mathematician and medical statistician masquerading as someone with specialized medical knowledge, who says that people with the flu are being incorrectly counted as “presumed Covid.”  https://summit.news/2021/01/05/epidemiologist-says-influenza-cases-are-being-counted-as-covid-19/

That doesn’t have anything to do with a flaw in the PCR test though.

Wow, actual information found on a non-cooking HQ2 thread!
