Yet at the end of the day the curves all end up the same, strict measures, some measures, no measures at all.
Just think, nursing homes are 0.5% of the population, and 40% of deaths. And a minute percentage of society works in nursing homes. It defies all logic to argue with a straight face that we can't successfully shield nursing homes, but can shield the entire world.
I shamelessly quoted this on someone's FB comment trying all the different talking points to say it shouldn't matter because you know, the protests!!11!1!!!!! and thanks for posting the link Swansong!
Here is a lovely article about why people are simplistic thinkers about all this. https://www.inverse.com/mind-body/ho...inking-covid19
Wow, how fast things change on Myocarditis being so "prevalent". Penn State needed to "Clarify" their story that some on here were touting as a reason to cancel ALL youth, high school and college sports .
Monday 8/31 - myocarditis is affecting 30-35% of Big Ten athletes, THAT is why the season was cancelled.
Wed 9/2 - “initial preliminary data that had been verbally shared by a colleague on a forthcoming study” showing a rate of close to 15 percent
That’s quite a percentage drop in 2 days. So how was this 15% number arrived at for Penn St athletes? Not sure because Penn State has reported NO myocarditis cases in athlete's who have tested positive for Corona. Hmmmm, that’s strange, but don’t take my word, go to this newspaper link from a Red Neck hillbilly saportin papah;
Appears that Myocarditis is so "prevalent" according to the basement bed wetters that there are TWO (yes 2, you know, the number after 1 and before 3) high-level athletes — Boston Red Sox pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez and Indiana offensive lineman Brady Feeney, who have been stricken by this side effect. I will await all of your well reasoned posts about must have eaten lead paint chips after ya ma took thalidomide. For further context as to the dire health consequences of this affliction, Myocarditis causes about 75 deaths per year in athletes from 13 to 25, according to the Myocarditis Foundation, AND THIS WAS PRE-CORONA VIRUS, so nice try.
Whalers....I've already posted the links to the following articles twice in the last week but, since you're either too lazy or, refuse to read something that confirms your attempted narrative is B.S., I'll post them again. As for your claim there have only been two "high level" athletes to contract miocarditis....well...more ignorance on your part. Are any of us surprised? Not in the least. The Penn St. doctor never indicated he was talking specifically about any athletes at Penn St. When he stated the "30-35%" number, he was referencing the number he'd been told in a conversation with Dr. Daniels from Ohio St. And yes, that number was actually 15% instead of 30-35%.
Regardless, the two "high level" athletes you mention are NOT the only ones. Again, the specialist from Ohio St. is stating emphatically that of the BIG10 athletes -- ALL BIG10 athletes -- that have tested positive for Covid to this point, 15% of them have also tested positive for myocarditis. He's can't legally release the names due to privacy concerns. Now, once the study is finished with its peer review process, the names of those who've come down with myocarditis may be released. But, maybe not. Oh, and if you read the first article, you'll see that...
"A 27-year-old former Florida State basketball player, Michael Ojo, who had recovered from the virus, died of an apparent heart attack at a practice in Serbia."
Huh, look at that. Another "high level" athlete who had myocarditis AND ACTUALLY DIED BECAUSE OF IT....
And myocarditis wasn't the only reason the BIG10 and Pac-12 postponed. It actually had as much and maybe more to do with testing requirements and turnaround times that even some of these schools couldn't meet. But again, that would actually require you to read from a information source that doesn't match your brain-washed narrative.
"Daniels, the director of sports cardiology at Ohio State, had also been busy, working to publish a three-month study whose preliminary findings were presented to Pac-12 and Big Ten leaders before they shut down football earlier this month. Daniels said that cardiac M.R.I.s, an expensive and sparingly used tool, revealed an alarmingly high rate of myocarditis — heart inflammation that can lead to cardiac arrest with exertion — among college athletes who had recovered from the coronavirus.
The survey found myocarditis in close to 15 percent of athletes who had the virus, almost all of whom experienced mild or no symptoms, Daniels added, perhaps shedding more light on the uncertainties about the short- and long-term effects the virus may have on athletes."
"I recently treated one Covid-19 patient in his early 50s. He had been in perfect shape with no history of serious illness. When the fevers and body aches started, he locked himself in his room. But instead of getting better, his condition deteriorated and he eventually accumulated gallons of fluid in his legs. When he came to the hospital unable to catch a breath, it wasn’t his lungs that had pushed him to the brink — it was his heart. Now we are evaluating him to see if he needs a heart transplant."
An intriguing new study from Germany offers a glimpse into how SARS-CoV-2 affects the heart. Researchers studied 100 individuals, with a median age of just 49, who had recovered from Covid-19. Most were asymptomatic or had mild symptoms.
An average of two months after they received the diagnosis, the researchers performed M.R.I. scans of their hearts and made some alarming discoveries: Nearly 80 percent had persistent abnormalities and 60 percent had evidence of myocarditis. The degree of myocarditis was not explained by the severity of the initial illness.
Though the study has some flaws, and the generalizability and significance of its findings not fully known, it makes clear that in young patients who had seemingly overcome SARS-CoV-2 it’s fairly common for the heart to be affected. We may be seeing only the beginning of the damage

I know you like to push only things that you think make a difference, but 15% is still appallingly high.
The rest of your post is merely content-free bomb-throwing dribble.
I gotta little bit of smoke and a whole lotta wine...
Just remember folks, this all goes away on November 4th as long as you vote Democrat. The Plandemic and mail-in vote fraud are how we're rigging it this time! You know, because we rigged it so well in 2016, 2004, 2000, etc. ;-)

It's downright amazing that despite the deep state having entwined itself into such a stranglehold on US politics, that we allowed two Republican presidents to serve and even gave them a complete sweep of Congress from 1995 to 2007 and again from 2015 to 2019...
