So, in the last 48 hours, we have gotten the following covid news:
We've reached the other side of the curve in FL, TX, AZ, and probably CA;
T-cell memory is real and means a significant portion of the population can fight off the most severe covid;
Hospitalized covid patients treated with convalescent plasma may have their death rates reduced up to 50%;
NYC is experiencing nearly zero new cases or deaths.
These pieces of news will not be widely reported. Instead, you will hear that vast death is right around the corner, as per the usual. You will hear schools must remain closed. You will hear that the Sun Belt blew it. You will hear lockdowns must be reimposed.
This is bulls***, pure and simple. It is not data-driven. It is narrative driven, it is bad policy, and it is absolutely political.
You forgot "You will hear that we can't open polling places and must vote by mail." That's the ultimate endgame in all of this. We see the failures of this in the primaries and see them as such. The Left sees those same results and thinks everything has gone according to their plan.
Almost no suicides, no accidental deaths, no cancer deaths, no pneumonia, no shootings in Chicago or anything else. Only CCP Virus, George Floyd and Breonna Taylor. That's about it.
This is why we, as a collective, should be running his campaign. Imagine the REEEEEING if he ran commercials claiming "Flu deaths, cancer deaths, motor vehicle accident deaths, etc. all decreased in the past year under President Trump's leadership." It would be legendary. They either admit it's true or that they were lying about CCP Virus deaths.
Trump literally reinvented the panedmic testing wheel in the United States within a month. He cut so much federal regulation that allowed not only testing to be done and sent outside CDC labs but also stocked up on HCQ with the Kodak deal along with pushing through vaccine candidates at record pace. The one thing hasn't been is hands off.
Negative. How many are denied HCQ? Most of the Nation. That's not exactly "hands on." How much good does all the testing do us? Little to none. It's pitifully inaccurate, just like we were told before we had any testing available. A Dr's diagnosis is better, once that Dr has any experience with this virus.
What DJT really did is got private industry cranking out PPE after Fauci had depleted it a decade ago, and also ramped up HCQ production. Which does us no good since we can't get it.
DJT is trying to not push HCQ due to all the backlash it gets when he does, and entertain the possibility ofd other things. A vaccine is laughable. HCQ in the right doses with the 3 medications that are "Trump pills" is more effective than any vaccine has ever been, and there's never been a vaccine for either a RNA virus or a coronavirus. If he's letting all this play out hoping for no ill effect, that's not being "hands on."
I'm not saying he could do better, nor am I trying to say how he could. Nor am I saying a more hands on approach could succeed. Just that this sucks, 40+ Governors mass murdering 135,000+ of us, and they're not done yet.
Trump is very passive on the Narrative. Let's face it--there have been many problems with the testing and death reporting that has played into the media's hands.
He outsourced too much authority to Fauci and Birx, and they are still around. On this site, we openly criticize Fauci as a whipping boy because it's safer than blaming his ultimate boss.
There is no reason we can't open up now. The federal declaration should be ended, and economies opened up again. This is affecting interstate commerce and is clearly a federal issue. Ideally, there would be legislation granting businesses limited liability on COVID issues, but that may not happen with a divided Congress without a steep cost.
We also need a better informational campaign about how a vaccine is not going to be a silver bullet, and we can't wait around for it because we may be waiting forever.
HCQ may help, it may not--I don't know. I think it's more likely that the virus simply isn't that deadly and most people will recover fine, with or without treatment. Some people may not, but them's the breaks (like any disease).
Trump has been one of the most active, if not the most active voice in championing the cause of re-opening.
A vaccine is basically an artificial way of instilling herd immunity without people contracting the actual disease. It was certainly a silver bullet for the polio virus. Are you saying it won't be effective at all? On what historical evidence or otherwise do you base your assertion on?
There has never been a successful vaccine for a coronavirus. Most likely, even if it is safe, we would have to take a new one every year anyway (for new strains) and it would have no effect on a huge percentage of users
Was someone actually trying to make a vaccine for a coronavirus before this pandemic? Why would they be doing that? There has been massively successful vaccines, actual silver bullets, against viruses including polio, hepatitis and measles.
My understanding is that cv-19 is in the same family as the common cold.
There is still to this day no vaccine for the common cold.
The common cold is a corona virus. Cv-19 is just an iteration. So when he’s saying there’s no vaccine for corona virus, he’s referring to all the iterations of common cold that are not this 19.
I think you've gotten downvoted so much simply because you don't know how well HCQ wiorks, in the right combination with two other meds and in the right doses. Most importantly, when started at the right time, which is as soon as you're diagnosed positive, no waiting 5 days for a test result.
15 years ago Fauci knew it works for anything like this. I'll give you two guesses why he says otherwise.
95-97.4% reduction in both hospitalizations and deaths when on "Trump pills," ass compared to the national average. The polio vaccine is the most effective ever, and it only achieves 90% after two courses.
Other than this one point I think you wrote a great comment. Although I'd like to see you flesh out what you mean by a "steep cost" with legislative liability waivers?
This is true, and the increase in those "totally not polio" cases would take place in the following weeks to months.
I used to have a healthy skepticism about whether or not there was an actual polio vaccine conspiracy but after seeing how the COVID numbers were so brazenly manipulated, I'm thinking it's actually pretty likely.
I honestly am not sold on HCQ--but if I got sick, I'd probably want it. I don't think it does any harm.
Regarding the steep cost, I simply meant that Pelosi's house wouldn't agree to pass such a bill unless it contained many poison pills, probably along the lines of extended unemployment benefits, PPP loans, and more stimulus checks. Maybe even more unpalatable things like voting by mail or amnesty measures.
I think that's actually a big part of the problem--we can't just pass common sense laws anymore, it's always got to be horsetraded with something absurd.
You haven't seen the studies on HCQ. Added to azithromycin it's antiviral in vitro. It's a zinc ionophore. The only problem (other than screening out the risk for heart arrhythmia) is when you deny sick people medical care until they're half dead already. That's a level of tyranny not even King George engaged in.
He's right about most things, until it pertains to Trump and his decision-making. He blindly falls back on his TradCon upbringing and starts spouting verbal diarrhea.
Yeah i came here to mention that he's late to the party. He's too quick to jump on the bandwagon and too slow to follow the facts. Not bad though thankfully.
My self entitled asshole sister and her 2 kids are staying with me this summer, and I occasionally raz her with actual news / facts that undermine her deranged views. Her and her college aged daughter all summer have been shrieking and complaining about people they come across not wearing masks, not keeping their distance and arguing with me about why they think endless lockdowns are so important - until yesterday, when my niece got an email from the very expensive arts college she's going to that they're not having any in person classes at all next semester - and she just signed a lease and paid the deposit on an expensive apartment near her college. Now they're absolutely outraged, because it means it's an inconvenience for them. Last week my niece responded to me complaining about local schools arranging to hand out free breakfasts and lunches to students even though there's no in person classes, told me I was 'mean' - my reply was 'I have kids, and what I earn I go out and earn it to pay for what my kids need, not some stranger's kids - so now, tell me - how much of what you earned last summer at your waitress job did you donate to the needy?' Fuckwits are always quick to condemn everyone else, but then when it's time for them to step up and practice what they preach, they lose interest.
No shit, that's why liberals are all about "activism" but when it comes time for action they are nowhere to be found.
Just tell her these are just white problems and she should instead stop going to college because college is white supremacy, as is having a roof or living in a nice building.
Someone being a family member doesn't automatically exempt them from being an asshole. Maybe it earns them a little leeway and extra patience when they run their mouths off, but that's about it.
What's the point of your question? Do you always post comments that are so assholeish in tone? I have lots of family, I only call those who are assholes 'asshole'.
Yes, because this is a place where people can vent and get shit off their chest. No one is hurt by anonymously bitching about annoying family. This person is letting them stay for the summer, so treating them pretty nice IRL, it seems.
It's pretty clear the family members the OP is referring to are not Conservatives and probably never will be. THEY are the reason society is falling apart (as evidenced by the examples he provides.) Maybe if THEY cleaned up their act and learned to behave like Conservatives, you'll have the rosy picture you're looking for.
Do you think John Wayne Gacy and/or David Berkowitz's sisters sit around saying the same thing? Bad behavior and actions override blind adherence to "blood."
Look, these people are staying with him this summer. That means well over a month already, maybe over 2. Surely that has been stressful and tense. He's doing a LOT to help people, and he deserves to blow off a little steam.
At this point grandma can die for all I care. Our country has become completely deranged. I’m literally living in a dystopian sci fi novel written in 1970.
None of these quotes contradict what's in the OP though.
He does what he does to stop him from potentially transmitting stuff to the elderly. You can do that and still believe the media is lying about 99% of what they say.
Its not a pivot. Being careful isn't the same thing as pushing a narrative, a d he's always suggested the mask thing and social distancing. He just doesn't believe entire states should still be on lockdown.
He concedes small, insignificant battles (masks) to win the big battles (keeping the economy open)
That's flawed logic. Nobody has ever said, "Here's the deal: Wear the masks now, and we'll end the shutdowns and tyrannical overreaches on this specific date." Remember, this crap was only supposed to last for 14 days and be lifted once the hospitals were in the clear from being overloaded. They keep moving the bar based on their phony numbers. If anyone thinks concession on any front will be matched with an equal concession by the enemy, they're severely mistaken.
This deserves to be discussed. I am medically exempt from wearing a mask. I've never used that asthmatic privilege, and it's almost never come up, yet. I don't know how much I'd gain (or lose) by going around as a 'great disrupter.' It could be fun? Getting in fights over it is the one thing my County Sheriff doesn't want to see, other than that he doesn't care.
For most people masks are not that big a deal, although I'm sure it sucks for everybody when it's super hot. The idea is to "put out the fires" as DJT put it. Granted, they're being like Lucy pulling the football away from Charlie Brown with this, but short of just killing every Marxist I don't see a way to make substantial progress on this front now. We already know the left doesn't care about facts or logic, and now they consider them racist.
So it seems to me that as an overall strategy to focus on bigger issues than masks is a good idea. If HCQ were available for all, masks wouldn't matter. I don't think we should push for OTC because then people aren't screened for heart arrhythmia. With the best screening, with a million people taking it we'd expect 400 deaths or less. (From taking "Trump pills" as designed, where azithromycin increases the risk of heart arrhythmia over just HCQ alone)
This seems like a MUCH bigger issue, and it deserves attention!
Masks are a symbol of compliance. That is all. This is why I and many others refuse to wear them. In New York they're threatening people who travel out of state with harassment and massive fines upon their return. So, all of a sudden it's not just just freedom to move about without compliance masks. It's freedom to move about a free country.
Downplaying ANYTHING cooked up by the Left is a massive mistake. Everything has a purpose. The masks aren't about safety. Conservatives can walk and chew gum. We can fight for HCQ (a point which we agree upon) and against masks.
The idea is to "put out the fires" as DJT put it. Granted, they're being like Lucy pulling the football away from Charlie Brown with this, but short of just killing every Marxist I don't see a way to make substantial progress on this front now.
Once again, I pose the question: Why do people think if we give in on the masks we're going to get ANYTHING in return? There are plenty of people wearing them now yet freedoms continue to be eroded, not gained. I would love to know exactly which "fight" you think we're winning by wearing the face diapers.
It would never have happened if this were not an election year that will re-elect President Trump. It has been a political operation by the dems all along. It will backfire on them because people are smart enough to see through it. We voted for Trump once and will re-elect him again. KAG!
I stopped listening in March/April ish when it was clear that he forced Matt Walsh to edit his opinion that the wuflu numbers weren’t consistent and needed some skepticism. Matt retracted and had to start saying “it’s real and dangerous guyz...”
I feel bad for anyone outside the USA who is going around wearing a mask because US Democrats wanted to screw around with the US election. Due to that the entire world is now NPC-brained wearing useless masks everywhere. I’d be so pissed at the Democrats for all time had I been conned like that.
You’re literally living a Democrat psyop because they know they can’t win the election any other way.
Can we stop listening to Ben Shapiro? He's controlled opposition and a gatekeeper. The dude is not on the Trump train. He's on whichever side he thinks is winning.
I like him. I don't always agree with him and he was completely ridiculous in 2016, but I appreciate that he's out there everyday pushing back on the false narrative. We don't have many conservative voices.
He's not perfect but he's on our side generally speaking. I appreciate his takes because it challenges you to counter the more nuanced criticisms of conservatism from a center right POV.
He's voting Trump in 2020, promotes Trump policy, and trashes Democrat and media lunacy. I don't think we need a purity test that excludes people who bring people to our side.
Wait I thought unmasking was the big problem I'm so confused aaaaaaa
Lol
The levels of NPC required to go along with any of their plannedemic nonsense after plannedriots stopped plannedemic dead in it's track are seriously disturbing.
His full rant on Twitter:
So, in the last 48 hours, we have gotten the following covid news:
These pieces of news will not be widely reported. Instead, you will hear that vast death is right around the corner, as per the usual. You will hear schools must remain closed.

.
On the positive side, Flu cases are set to see an all-time low. Probably almost zero. Looks like we finally found a cure!
.
It's like the walking dead or something. Everybody is assumed infected, so every death includes covid on the death certificate.
You are assumed to be a public health risk unless you prove otherwise.
Relevant.
Get the flu, get Wuhan virus to cure the flu, then go loot a TV to cure the Wu.
Since March, we have had almost no flu deaths and record low cases from a historical statistical standpoint!! Cool
Almost no suicides, no accidental deaths, no cancer deaths, no pneumonia, no shootings in Chicago or anything else. Only CCP Virus, George Floyd and Breonna Taylor. That's about it.
If trump is blamed for the covid deaths, shouldn't the media and liberals be glorifying him for curing all of those ailments?
I guess it's true, as they said, if Trump cured cancer, liberals would come out in support of cancer
This is why we, as a collective, should be running his campaign. Imagine the REEEEEING if he ran commercials claiming "Flu deaths, cancer deaths, motor vehicle accident deaths, etc. all decreased in the past year under President Trump's leadership." It would be legendary. They either admit it's true or that they were lying about CCP Virus deaths.
thank you
'Lil Benji is sometimes right.
Trump literally reinvented the panedmic testing wheel in the United States within a month. He cut so much federal regulation that allowed not only testing to be done and sent outside CDC labs but also stocked up on HCQ with the Kodak deal along with pushing through vaccine candidates at record pace. The one thing hasn't been is hands off.
And they are using the testing against us to keep schools closed. A billion new cases!!! Even though a papaya will test positive for the chinavirus.
Negative. How many are denied HCQ? Most of the Nation. That's not exactly "hands on." How much good does all the testing do us? Little to none. It's pitifully inaccurate, just like we were told before we had any testing available. A Dr's diagnosis is better, once that Dr has any experience with this virus.

I elaborated below on your comment because I don’t think people understand:
My understanding is that cv-19 is in the same family as the common cold.
There is still to this day no vaccine for the common cold. The common cold is a corona virus. Cv-19 is just an iteration.
So when he’s saying there’s no vaccine for corona virus, he’s referring to all the iterations of common cold that are not this 19.
Correct me if I’m wrong here.
One of us has our data wrong.

The polio vaccine was so “effective” because they also changed the criteria for diagnosing polio when it came out.
Polio rates decreased, guillaine barre syndrome and non-polio accuse flaccid paralysis increased dramatically.
This is true, and the increase in those "totally not polio" cases would take place in the following weeks to months.
I used to have a healthy skepticism about whether or not there was an actual polio vaccine conspiracy but after seeing how the COVID numbers were so brazenly manipulated, I'm thinking it's actually pretty likely.

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted.
I rub people the wrong way sometimes. Criticizing GEOTUS directly instead of his designated scapegoat (Fauci, Sessions, Priebus, etc.) doesn't help.
Plus, if enough people downvote early on, it snowballs as the thread rises. Oh well, I will continue to call it like I see it, which can be lonely
See my comment trying to elucidate what you meant by the fact corona virus has never had a vaccine.
I think it’s important that we elaborate to explain what that means every time since most people don’t know that.
A lot of people don’t know this, because he never mentions it, but his wife is a medical doctor.
Never heard that, nope. /s
I just learned this for the first time!
I actually thought he wouldn’t say it on his Rogan interview last week since it’s become such a meme...
But, alas, he did!!
I bet shes a hottie too
LMAO
He's right about most things, until it pertains to Trump and his decision-making. He blindly falls back on his TradCon upbringing and starts spouting verbal diarrhea.
When he is, he's always late.
Yeah i came here to mention that he's late to the party. He's too quick to jump on the bandwagon and too slow to follow the facts. Not bad though thankfully.
But he’ll claim he’s “been saying this all along” a thousand times like he’s never wrong.
My self entitled asshole sister and her 2 kids are staying with me this summer, and I occasionally raz her with actual news / facts that undermine her deranged views. Her and her college aged daughter all summer have been shrieking and complaining about people they come across not wearing masks, not keeping their distance and arguing with me about why they think endless lockdowns are so important - until yesterday, when my niece got an email from the very expensive arts college she's going to that they're not having any in person classes at all next semester - and she just signed a lease and paid the deposit on an expensive apartment near her college.

Fuckwits are always quick to condemn everyone else, but then when it's time for them to step up and practice what they preach, they lose interest.
Lockdowns for thee but not for REEEEE!
No shit, that's why liberals are all about "activism" but when it comes time for action they are nowhere to be found.
Just tell her these are just white problems and she should instead stop going to college because college is white supremacy, as is having a roof or living in a nice building.
Sound like typical run of the mill democrats tbh
Someone being a family member doesn't automatically exempt them from being an asshole. Maybe it earns them a little leeway and extra patience when they run their mouths off, but that's about it.
Weird how you don't know when to STFU.
So you know who they are from his post? It's all anonymous you faggot.
If he was apathetic, he wouldn’t even think about them, dumbass, you’re too stupid to realize how stupid you are right now
What's the point of your question? Do you always post comments that are so assholeish in tone? I have lots of family, I only call those who are assholes 'asshole'.
We are not in Chy-Na you commie scumbag.
Wow, thanks for your concern, now please go fuck off.
When they’re fuckwits, they’re fuckwits whether or not they are family...
Yes, because this is a place where people can vent and get shit off their chest. No one is hurt by anonymously bitching about annoying family. This person is letting them stay for the summer, so treating them pretty nice IRL, it seems.
Who let this boring troll in?
Family does not get a free pass.
They are just forced acquaintances. You don't have to actually like them
It's pretty clear the family members the OP is referring to are not Conservatives and probably never will be. THEY are the reason society is falling apart (as evidenced by the examples he provides.) Maybe if THEY cleaned up their act and learned to behave like Conservatives, you'll have the rosy picture you're looking for.
Do you think John Wayne Gacy and/or David Berkowitz's sisters sit around saying the same thing? Bad behavior and actions override blind adherence to "blood."
This feels like Lucy of the Peanuts: "the Doctor is IN." We could have fun psychoanalyzing this concern troll, who has no clue about ... anything
"we as conservatives"
Riiiiiiiight.
That's so much funnier than just the pic I saw before
You're right, fellow Caterpillar.
Look, these people are staying with him this summer. That means well over a month already, maybe over 2. Surely that has been stressful and tense. He's doing a LOT to help people, and he deserves to blow off a little steam.
And it's completely anonymous.
I didn't care when cases were a billion, sure as fuck don't now. Do whatever you want, grandma can stay home if she's scared.
At this point grandma can die for all I care. Our country has become completely deranged. I’m literally living in a dystopian sci fi novel written in 1970.
Advocating the deaths of fellow Americans, real classy. The corona derangement is overblown but this shit kills people man.
He's really late to the party. Watch Knowles. Benji gave credence to the hoax for way too long.
None of these quotes contradict what's in the OP though.
He does what he does to stop him from potentially transmitting stuff to the elderly. You can do that and still believe the media is lying about 99% of what they say.
There is a difference between having the choice to wear a mask and doing so, and bring forced to wear one.
A huge difference.
Its not a pivot. Being careful isn't the same thing as pushing a narrative, a d he's always suggested the mask thing and social distancing. He just doesn't believe entire states should still be on lockdown.
That's flawed logic. Nobody has ever said, "Here's the deal: Wear the masks now, and we'll end the shutdowns and tyrannical overreaches on this specific date." Remember, this crap was only supposed to last for 14 days and be lifted once the hospitals were in the clear from being overloaded. They keep moving the bar based on their phony numbers. If anyone thinks concession on any front will be matched with an equal concession by the enemy, they're severely mistaken.
BINGO!
Instead we're being told "Wear the mask now, everything stays closed"
This deserves to be discussed. I am medically exempt from wearing a mask. I've never used that asthmatic privilege, and it's almost never come up, yet. I don't know how much I'd gain (or lose) by going around as a 'great disrupter.' It could be fun?

Exercising your ability to say no is important, and it's best practiced with things that are "insignificant"
Ben is a cuck. He's our cuck but he's still a cuck.
khazar milkers
Didn't this little cuck question Trumps HCQ recommendation?
Don't think so?
So? He can question a recommendation. That's not unreasonable.
This is freaking ridiculous
I say we start to organize
Username checks out. I've been saying this since March. PLAN and organize.
Well done Benji, you are only 6 months behind all of us. <Slow Clap>
It would never have happened if this were not an election year that will re-elect President Trump. It has been a political operation by the dems all along. It will backfire on them because people are smart enough to see through it. We voted for Trump once and will re-elect him again. KAG!
Spread the fear, hoax, scam, planned or at least leveraged... wake up people!
Only took him 5 months to figure it out. The speed of conservative pundits.
Zooooooooom
He's actually been making these arguments for a long time.
I stopped listening in March/April ish when it was clear that he forced Matt Walsh to edit his opinion that the wuflu numbers weren’t consistent and needed some skepticism. Matt retracted and had to start saying “it’s real and dangerous guyz...”
Wow it’s almost like COVID-1984 is just another virus or something and behaves like other viruses!
I feel bad for anyone outside the USA who is going around wearing a mask because US Democrats wanted to screw around with the US election. Due to that the entire world is now NPC-brained wearing useless masks everywhere. I’d be so pissed at the Democrats for all time had I been conned like that.
You’re literally living a Democrat psyop because they know they can’t win the election any other way.
On the CDC’s website the graph for deaths per week has nosedived.
Yay! How long has that been consistent?

Sure it's nice when a never trumper agrees with us on something important, but still, it's lil' benji.
I agree, and I also want to bang the hell out of his sister.
wow- welcome to the party, benji
I heard his wife is a doctor.
Watch the trailer, Covid testing is explained and its all bullshit.

Also his wife is a doctor in case you didn't know.
Does he say S-H-I-T??? What will his doctor wife think?
Can we stop listening to Ben Shapiro? He's controlled opposition and a gatekeeper. The dude is not on the Trump train. He's on whichever side he thinks is winning.
I like him. I don't always agree with him and he was completely ridiculous in 2016, but I appreciate that he's out there everyday pushing back on the false narrative. We don't have many conservative voices.
He's not perfect but he's on our side generally speaking. I appreciate his takes because it challenges you to counter the more nuanced criticisms of conservatism from a center right POV.
He's voting Trump in 2020, promotes Trump policy, and trashes Democrat and media lunacy. I don't think we need a purity test that excludes people who bring people to our side.
Ben Shapiro, aka Bill Kristol Lite, is NOT YOUR FRIEND.
He speaks just enough truth to rope in people, and then he says stuff to confuse and divide.
Ben is a Turd Tornado, and he always will be. FUCK BEN SHAPIRO.
Wait I thought unmasking was the big problem I'm so confused aaaaaaa
Lol
The levels of NPC required to go along with any of their plannedemic nonsense after plannedriots stopped plannedemic dead in it's track are seriously disturbing.
Benjis a piece of shit but he is right here
