When I saw that the vast majority of people don't have symptoms, that's when I knew. It's very very rare for a person without visible symptoms to be able to spread a virus. If they don't display symptoms, it's because the virus can't replicate enough in their system to actually cause a problem. Yes, there are notable exceptions, like typhoid Mary, but those are notable because they're exceptions. Anyone with even basic medical knowledge should have been able to tell the same. But apparently we're all into pretending we don't know basic facts this year, and we're all slaves to fashion.

Yeah, the asymptomatic cases have the same viral load as pediatric cases, and so far no child has transmitted it or AFAIK died of it.

I jumped aboard the hoax train week one, when it was revealed that people below 60 had a 0.5% death rate, yet they were obviously and transparently trying to panic everyone.
