Based on your second line, you clearly have no idea what you're speaking about.

Here you go lazy boy. 1200 health experts saying police brutality protests are more important than slowing the spread of the very deadly virus

Those same experts said protesting was worth it and covid would take a pause

Thank you for the link, I missed it first time through

Having said that we draw two totally different conclusions from the text.


1) " This letter is signed by 1,288 public health professionals, infectious diseases professionals, and
community stakeholders."
The word "expert " is yours, or some twitter bot

2) " These are strategies for harm reduction. It is our sincere hope that all participants will be able to follow these
suggestions for safer public demonstrations, assisted by allies where possible and necessary, but we
recognize that this may not always be the case. Even so, we continue to support demonstrators who are
tackling the paramount public health problem of pervasive racism. We express solidarity and gratitude toward
demonstrators who have already taken on enormous personal risk to advocate for their own health, the health
of their communities, and the public health of the United States. We pledge our services as allies who share
this goal."

I don't see where " Those same experts said protesting was worth it and covid would take a pause "

I do see:

"Staying at home, social distancing, and public masking are effective at minimizing the spread of
COVID-19. To the extent possible, we support the application of these public health best practices during
demonstrations that call attention to the pervasive lethal force of white supremacy. However, as public health
advocates, we do not condemn these gatherings as risky for COVID-19 transmission. We support them as vital
to the national public health and to the threatened health specifically of Black people in the United States. We
can show that support by facilitating safest protesting practices without detracting from demonstrators’ ability to
gather and demand change. This should not be confused with a permissive stance on all gatherings,
particularly protests against stay-home orders. Those actions not only oppose public health interventions, but
are also rooted in white nationalism and run contrary to respect for Black lives. Protests against systemic
racism, which fosters the disproportionate burden of COVID-19 on ..."

3)
"Support the health of protesters by encouraging the following:
○ Use of face coverings.
○ Distance of at least 6 feet between protesters, where possible.
○ Demonstrating consistently alongside close contacts and moving together as a group, rather
than extensively intermingling with multiple groups.
○ Staying at home when sick, and using other platforms to oppose racism for high-risk individuals,
and those unable or uncomfortable to attend in person."

the other point is I am guessing this was written a month before the Floyd Murder ???

a month before the massive demonstrations
and again, thank you for going back and finding the link

I don't!
and am not an epidemiologist, or a medical professional and for those reasons have not weighed in on data or "science" of the pandemic.

Wear your mask

**** this cunt. How many excess deaths are OK? We know 100K is fine, it's just a flu. Is it 200K? 300K? 400K? What's the excess death total that's ok and makes this not devastating?

For example, we pour millions every year into Pink Ribbons for Breast Cancer, which kills about 50K in the USA. Is that devastating?

We spent only a few trillion more than your example and thats just the expenses resulting as of today.

6 billion every year or a one time crisis. Don't be so ****ing dumb.

[chop2chip]

Wut?

In a thousand years that $6 billion a year will equal roughly the amount spent on COVID.

One time crisis is the key phrase.

Care to do one better, for you then. How much money was spent on the War on Terror? Which was started when about 3000 people died.

Hey pal. I’m all for government lockdowns and stimulus to knock this thing out. The condescension to thethe given the financial comparison that you made was just funny.

[thethe]

See you're getting it now. The war on terror was one of the biggest mistakes in the past 100 years. COVID lockdowns will be remembered in the same way.

My point was if we're dealing with something that is bad by throwing billions at it every year, why not play it big for a pandemic. Something that doesn't happen that often. THe US of course hasn't been hit by anything like this since the SPanish Flu.
