He's had nothing to do with it. Astrozeneca have a potential vaccine within 9 months of the outbreak and they are British. ALL governments globally abandoned the red tape. He's nothing special. Pfizer were funded by German government

So you're saying all the areas where they have brought in mandatory mask wearing since March and the R rate falls... is coincidental?

The issue around the persecution of "anti-maskers" is they're quite correct. No the issue around the 'persecution' of "anti-maskers" is... They're killing people, and pretending either willfully or ignorantly like this isn't a global disaster. The 'issue' is, anti-maskers are fu...

The anti-maskers as you call them are simply not sheep. And the numbers show the masks are not working. The US has an 88% compliance rate for maskes. DCD said if we were above 80% things would be fine. These people are not causing any spike. I didn't coin that? I didn't even bring that up. I was re...

November's spike is just Thanksgiving. It was an INEVITABLE spike. Certainly California's November spike is little different from everyone else this month. November's numbers aren't comparable with the numbers based in months where the holidays aren't tempting people to be stupid. We're into DEEP Ho...

I should add to the above - yes, we absolutely need sensible measures in place. Mask wearing, if it makes you feel better - but it's doing very little. Social distancing, increased hygiene standards society-wide, and maintaining changes to work culture to continue limited contact are all sensible m...

For anyone under 50 without comorbidities, the risk of a negative outcome from taking a vaccine is sufficient (when compared to the small risk of negative virus outcomes) that there's not really any good reason they should take one...

The UK government have done an impeccable job of spreading fear-inducing propaganda. Which has done its job and driven people to follow the rules. Well I'm American, and in America apparently all telling people they should be afraid of the virus has done is make them double down on stupid behavior....

Unfortunately, here in America politicians from both parties have chosen to politicize the disease from early on. This is bothsideism at its worst. I see one party, the Democrats, advocating listening to doctors and scientists. I see the Republicans from Trump on down ignoring the advice of their o...

"a Covid only relief bill." Convenient made-up term to gloss over the fact that Mitch has been sitting on his hands for months.

"the economy grew under Trump" does not mean "the economy shrank under Obama". The one does not logically imply the other.

You... do understand that, right?

But it's just a continuation of the Obama recovery. He didn't get any policy changes through in the first 9 months of his presidency yet still the economy boomed and he happily took the credit for it.

The simple truth of national level economics is that you borrow money to stimulate the economy when bad times hit. When times are good you reduce spending to get debt under control and prepare for the next downturn. Bush and then Obama did their part by borrowing massively to bail out a seriously da...
