Fauci - The Expert

With all the disgusting discarded masks out blowing in the wind right now I'm surprised every fkn one of us doesn't have it

These are the same retards who before the 'pandemic' lectured everyone about plastic straws and clean environment.

The same ones who get on here everyday and convince me I'm the problem for simply breathing and not wearing a mask. And their defense?
"Well I don't throw my mask on the ground?!"
Cool, but what about the other 150 million ppl who do?

I maintain social distance, I control/cover coughs (which I haven't had a single one) I don't needlessly touch items I'm not buying, I AM taking more respectable precautions than every one of you careless mask tossing a-holes, every mask you toss should be charged under a biological warfare crime. I can't walk 3 blocks in any direction without seeing 2 dozen dirty disgusting masks laying everywhere, but somehow I'M the problem.

here is an idea, you get the virus, you let your body build up its natural defenses, and you go on about your normal life once the virus has run its course withing a few days. Unless you are over the age of 50 and on a terminal illness you have nothing to worry about.

78% of overweight or obese with covid have been hospitalized... and just last year, leftards have been telling themselves that obesity is healthy.

I know right? Still though, the chances of you getting the virus in the first place is very low. I believe that the current numbers are highly exaggerated. People have no idea what the government does to get their way.

That sounds about like how I have it planned in my mind already be anyway.

But in reply to "the ppl with terminal illnesses" part, I'm not so sure about that either. I know a person with cancer and a person with fricken ghonerea of the brain, and both of them are recovering from covid right now, worse symptoms they complained of was some nausea and loss of taste/smell

yeah they over-hyped the shit out of COVID for political gain because they know how easily people get manipulated with fear.

Not all of us.

Even if you’re not worried about being hospitalized due to covid, you should be concerned about a lack of hospital beds because so many are taken by Covid patients. You might need one if you’re in a traffic accident or some other reason that you, or a loved one, might need to be taken to the hospital.

The hospitals in this country have never been beyond their ability to handle the influx of patients, and that was when it appeared to be out of control. The extra measures that were taken, like sending in hospital ships and setting up remote, makeshift hospitals, was never used.

I have now seen enough of your thought "process" to confirm that you are a liberal, cute meme inferring otherwise notwithstanding. If you truly think otherwise, then an intervention is clearly overdue.

You’re just as bad as a liberal who can’t defend his argument so you dismiss the other side of the debate as being a member of some kind of uninformed group (aka “liberal”). At what point will you start calling me a racist - because that’s what people with your thought “process” tend to do when you can’t defend your argument.

I am impressed with all the Infectious Disease Doctors, who have devoted their lives to research and analyzing data, to have time to give their valuable input, here, on IMGFLIP.

I thought they should be researching more important things like which bathrooms people should use, and what is the current "boycott" target.

Ikr
I got covid from a relative being in the hospital, where masks were required. Never got it anywhere else, despite how many times I’ve been mask-less.

I got it at church from a guy who’s ALWAYS double masked.

you got herpes at church from a dude? Nice!

I got COVID, sicko

you got covid by sucking a d at church- and i am the sicko?
You know what doesnt work- prayer!

Yeah, because masks aren't an excuse for social distancing

Still doesn’t explain why. If masks don’t work, it shouldn’t matter if people wear them or not.

You can wear a mask all you want- who is saying you can't?

But there are potential health risks in wearing masks improperly, as most of you almost certainly do- wear them improperly.

If you are not changing yours every 30 minutes, if you are not wearing it in an already sterile environment, and if you are not, NOT exposing yourself to things too small, like say, A VIRUS, then your useless mask wearing is your choice, but it is doing you no good. Instead, you are almost certainly growing something that could harm you using your own expelled water vapor and body heat to turn that mask of yours into an excellent Petri dish.

"BuT I hAVe bEEN wEaRiNg a mASk anD I'm nOt SicK!"

Whatever . . .

Well, sure, but if you're wearing the mask all the time, the mask blocks out the COVID, so there is no virus in the mask, and you stay healthy.

The mask does not block out Covid.

I wonder if you realize what is wrong with this meme. I will tell you since you likely do not. The meme is inaccurate because a mosquito would be too large to properly represent the size difference between the holes in the fence. A better representation would be using a chain link fence to try and block out *fragments* of dust, as even dust particles would be too large to be accurate.

In the State I live on, people have been wearing masks all the time, and yet our infection rates were no better and no worse than States without the mandate. This has been true from the beginning, with the "curve" being effectively the same between harsh lockdown states and practically open states.

For most of you, your lack of wisdom and knowledge of science has left you in a needless state of fear, brought on by the selective reporting in the MSM. Your mask, therefore, is nothing more than a security blanket. I guess if your blanky makes you feel better, so be it.

Wow, ok, you're getting really triggered over here. I'm not saying that a mask makes you completely immune to COVID. I am saying that it helps. And in a worldwide pandemic, you should probably take whatever you can get to help.
I also don't like wearing masks. But they can help stop the spread of COVID, which will bring the world closer to being normal again.

"But they can help stop the spread of COVID, which will bring the world closer to being normal again."

And that, my friend, is where the real problem with all of this lies. Where the mask if you want to, hoping that "it helps", when it does not because it cannot. But to have been brainwashed into believing that if you just obey "the experts", and worse yet the non-expert politicians, you can have your life back is why so many of us push back.

I do not care if you wear a mask. I wear a mask because I have to for my job- I would not be permitted to do my job without it thanks to the successful misinformation campaign, and those of you who have bought into it. But none of us, NONE OF US, is wearing these masks correctly, because we cannot.

Cloth masks are an utter joke. I choose to wear the disposable surgical masks because they are disposable, but even then I do not change mine every 30 minutes, and since it gets in the way of doing my job, I cannot but touch it frequently.

And I am a low grade germaphobe. Many people buying into mask wearing have had (and likely still have) no concern over doing useless things like washing their hands in a public restroom, and then grabbing the door handle on the way out. Given how many people don't wash their hands after using the bathroom, this makes hand washing almost useless if you don't avoid contaminating your hands in this manner.

So, while I am not triggered, if only because I really do not care what you do, I am tired of the complete lack of basic knowledge of science that so many display on this issue. Just because you hear it from an "expert", or 24/7 from the Media, does not mean you have safety in numbers.

And it is astonishing that so many either know nothing about the States and entire countries, that have fared BETTER by not having lockdowns and mask mandates.

70.6% of Case-Patients, and 74.2% of Control Participants diagnosed with covid ALWAYS wore mask

3.9% of Case-Patients, and 3.1% of Control Participants diagnosed with covid NEVER did

Top of page 4 (1261) in case you're interested.

These numbers do not support your claim that wearing a mask helps in any way.

"Bringing the world back to normal" is a carrot they'll be dangling until we give up all rights, and the transfer of powers is complete, from US as a world superpower to China.

If you notice, they are doing everything they can to bring the west (US/Can/EU/Aus/NZ) to it's knees.... all while Chinese are back to normal, and have been for a better portion of last year, and their economy grew over 20%!!! in the first quarter of 2021.

Through the power of media, they have created coverage that made a flu like illness into a "pandemic".

thanks Infectious disease dr.

Would you like some upvote cookies with that?

Yeah, I knew that March 2020 lol

Everyone and anyone who's not a sheep, did.

Covid deaths more or less track cases by about a month time. So to believe your claim, it seems you would either have to think covid is actually the flu... or covid and the flu are different but covid killed almost nobody and the flu randomly killed 10x as many people in 2020 as it normally does.

I'm basically saying the number of actual COVID deaths is much, much lower than what the media reports

Ok so if they aren't covid deaths, and you're saying the chart is actually based on the flu.... then it would seem flu deaths have randomly skyrocketed.

No...it implies that all deaths from "flu-like" or "respiratory" symptoms have been diagnosed as covid, explaining why these numbers suddenly dropped off the map when the CDC changed the way it counts deaths by disease. These illnesses dropped at the same time the CDC changed its policy.

And yet somehow the number of excess deaths is roughly the same as the number of covid deaths... Possibly even a bit more. They claim roughly half a million people died of covid in 2020. There were also roughly half a million more deaths overall in 2020 than would be expected.

Theoretically if other deaths from typical flu or respiratory illnesses were being misdiagnosed as covid all over the place, you would expect the number of reported covid deaths to exceed the number of extra deaths.

(Typical deaths from respiratory illness and the flu in a year would not cause an increase in overall expected deaths because they happen every year )

To put it another way, if you went full tinfoil and said there were zero actual covid deaths in 2020, the whole thing was a conspiracy, covid didnt even exist, the CDC simply began purposely misdiagnosing every single death as covid..... then you would expect to see zero excess deaths for that year. Zero net gain. Just the typical amount of deaths.
(Assuming some other random thing like murder hornets didn't kill half a million people and they blamed covid...hmm..
Darko's half-baked conspiracy theory #926! )
:P

Anyway as far as I know that isn't the case. Half a million deaths came from somewhere and as far as I know the only different variable last year was covid.

Exxxcept that there were fewer overall deaths in 2020 when compared to previous years.

2019: 2,900,689
2020: 2,728,104

Granted, the CDC will still massage and manipulate the numbers from 2020, but unless they call in the Democrats that were in charge of the Nov 2020 polls, they ain't gonna make it.

Wow.. You're actually claiming 2020 had 180,000 LESS deaths than 2019.. what is your source on that?

btw- You misunderstand the concept of "excess deaths". This is nothing more than guess work on the part of the "experts", as there is NO WAY of knowing how many people would have died without the addition of Covid. Based on the ACTUAL death count, it is clear that this is just a theory.

So, even if there were only 500,000 actual deaths in 2020, the CDC could still label them all as "excess deaths". Utter nonsense.

Ya no.. I don't think I misunderstand the concept of excess deaths at all. You take however many prior years and amounts of statistical data and use it to extrapolate a reasonable estimate including a margin of error... anything above the margin of error is considered excess.

Idk where you were going or what your point was with the last part but ya.. it sounds like nonsense. If there were only 500,000 total deaths in 2020 the CDC obviously could NOT label them all excess deaths. As I said above excess deaths are calculated using data from however many prior years. For the CDC to declare all 500,000 deaths in 2020 to be excess would mean they randomly expected zero total deaths in 2020....... despite however many millions of deaths happening every year going back decades.

We know how long humans usually live and how many typically die. To act like welp theres no way to know how many people will probably die per year here is to play yourself.

If we were talking about a total population of 50 over a span of a couple years ok.. There could be zero deaths per year or 1 single car crash could cause a death swing of zero to 10% all of a sudden...... But we're talking about 300+ million people over however many decades. Not exactly a small pool of data.

and yet YOU know the CDC labeled deaths wrong- is just YOUR theory.

It is not just my theory, and it is demonstrably true. And no, I am not going to prove that to you- do your own research. The fact that you do not already know of this issue is proof enough that you have not already done so.

Hey, I agree with you. Qanon and Fox news would never lie- they are fair and balanced. Q was right too about famous people beiing pedo's. Q is the 17th letter of the alphabet, Gaetz loved the 17 year olds so much he was helping them with college tuition- for next year, since they were still in highschool. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
So is Gaetz, Q? you can tell me.

there was a leaked CDC memo that was reported, but then quickly squashed by MSM

if MSM squashed news- FOXY would run with it 24/7-

In fact, pollen and other allergy symptoms have gone down also due to the wearing of masks.
Go figure.

Pollen and viruses are worlds apart.

Hence the difference in spelling?

no one pointed out how the common flu, which kills about 35,000 Americans each year and has plague mankind for all of history, just vanished overnight in 2020. The medical community should be wildly celebrating this miracle!

Perhaps reading the comment you replied to might help clear up your confusion.

In fact? Apart from you saying it is so, it is not so based on experience.

Actually, yes. That's how data is accumulated,

If that were the case, ya wouldn't have 500,000 dead.

Disease A ≠ Disease B

Covid and the flu etc are not the same. What prevents one by 90% might not be as effective against another. Even among coronavirus... From what I've heard the new variants are even more contagious. I guess any corona mutations that survive the preventative measures we have currently have in place are the ones that replicate... survival of the fittest and whatnot.

"from what [you've] heard"?

And yet, here you are, alive, and annoying as ever.

Ya.. From what I've heard in the news and such. The South African variant B.1.351 for example. Apparently it has already infected people fully vaccinated against the original covid. "Coronavirus classic" :P

I can provide sources if you like but it sounds like you're already annoyed so I'm assuming that's a "no".

Exactly, you would have had more without it - although the rate of infection in the US compared how to other countries was how much higher again? Not that that would have anything to do with them not having this extreme fascination with silly polarization and thus being more proactive with precaution.

What other countries did is different that what the US did, thanks in large part to politics: https://www.bitchute.com/video/hfzL5gUeQvxr/?fbclid=IwAR1BLd1BI_EW3gSHyLjRtqIYX7i77kixo3Oz6Wzau1G0WJiXsMGheVxj-Vc
