No one knows if there will be herd immunity.

We SHOULD be testing tens of millions a month - should have done that in March, and we'd be on the downslope of this.

Trump is the one that thinks he is a dictator.

Wrong, anti body testing and that takes volunteers.

Horowitz: Ohio officials discover six coronavirus cases from January
Daniel Horowitz · May 12, 2020

Other states have already identified more cases from much earlier than previously thought, but Ohio’s case in January 7 would be the earliest known case in the country so far. It makes sense that now that antibody testing is becoming more widespread, we are discovering that many more people had this virus earlier and didn’t even realize it. This is why those pushing swab tests and contact tracing don’t seem to be in a rush for antibody tests, and many are even panning them.

We also know that many more people who have contracted this virus have never developed symptoms. The fact that this has spread so much for so long demonstrates the folly in the entire premise of a lockdown.

The CDC has already written years ago regarding mitigating the spread of flu that “the effectiveness of pandemic mitigation strategies will erode rapidly as the cumulative illness rate prior to implementation climbs above 1 percent of the population in an affected area.” The massive asymptomatic spread for months ensured we reached that threshold before we knew what hit us.

In February, the Dayton Daily News reported, “Nearly 1,200 Ohioans were hospitalized from complications to the flu from Feb. 8 to Feb. 15” and that “some doctors said it has been the worst year they have seen in a decade.” One doctor said that the Miami valley was “particularly hard-hit in February. This is one area where we now know there were cases percolating in January. Other news outlets noted a 36% increase in “flu” hospitalizations during the last week of January.

Thus, the entire premise of flattening a curve and stopping a spread on a highly transmissible and often asymptomatic virus was always a lie, given the timing of our government’s response. Yet, time and again, Dr. Fauci and the Republican and Democrat senators at today’s hearing spoke as if they have the ability to mitigate this virus and that somehow we need to do more to shut down our lives for the remainder of this year than we did while it was spreading in January and February. At some point we must ask: Is anyone in government really interested in getting to the bottom of the science about this virus, or is the lockdown an end in itself?

IT IS NOT DEADLY UNLESS ONE IS COMORBID WITH MULTIPLE CHRONIC ILLNESSES, ESPECIALLY ELDERLY PEOPLE.

Incorrect in so many ways.

1) Immunity after exposure has NOT been proven. Without that, there IS NO Herd Immunity

2) Earlier cases doesn't disprove the lockdown - a few cases that were slowly spreading changes nothing.

3) If we had acted like South Korea, and done massive testing in February/March, we'd be out of this by now.

4) Stop listening to Conspiracy theorists. It was NEVER a lie.

5) It is more deadly to the elderly and those with other diseases, but thousands that don't fit those categories have died. I knew TWO of them - one a fit, healthy 39-year old Deputy Sheriff who contracted on the job. The other, a 55 year old man with no other health issues (other than being a little overweight) who also got it in a work setting.

You views are not only false, but they are dangerous.

CV19 seems to be very contagious, and it has been here since 2019. Everyone was exposed prior to the shuttering of businesses, schools, etc and likely tens of millions had it. My views or not false or dangerous however your demented reasons for destroying the economy are.

No, everyone was not exposed prior to the shutdown. You are the one that are promoting false and Dangerous ideas.



And what are my demented ideas for destroying the economy? Do tell.

I guess in a fantasy world in which millions of tests can be conjured out of thin air over night, we would have done that?

South Korea managed to pull off a proportional amount. If we had real leadership in this country, we could have as well.

S. Korea had no national lock down and closes businesses like the US.

Because they tested, Traced and quarantined everyone exposed.

We are trying to get to the same point as South Korea in California. The SF Bay Area is getting very close. We may be there by the end of this month.

Los Angeles and other parts of California are not doing so well.
