and I wish all those who choose to ignore science at least not insult those that do. but as the great Mick Jagger once said "you can't always get what you want"

Why don’t you move to China? You should fit right into their system. They identified those who had the virus locked them up to keep them from contaminated anyone else. Only thing you forgot is to hide the facts from the rest of the people. Small oversight on your part.

That's because people still watch FAKE NEWS CNN, etc. and believe all the lies they spready day in, day out. After 4 years of their crap, you would think they would have the intelligence to switch the channel or turn it off!

So CNN is the spready FAKE News. That is very original.

We all heard about how the recent rally in The Villages would be another Super Spreader event. “Peaceful protests” were okay according to the media, but rallies were Super Spreaders. Now that more than two weeks have passed since the rally and there has been no surge of new cases, you have heard nothing more from the media. The media sells fear to promote their agenda. They tell you what you should believe. And because they package it as “news” people accept it as fact.

While the statistics I saw were not broken out by individual rally, they did indicate as of last weekend, just over 12,000 cases and almost 700 deaths have been traced to the rally's so far and considering the exponential rise of numbers presently occurring, more is likely to occur.

Since CNN has been broadcasting since 1980, not sure how they could have survived as a world-wide news organization if they were really fake. However, if it comforts you to think so...."d'Nile is not just a river in Egypt.

*Another* "study" by a department of economics using statistical modeling to assume a large number of Covid cases then using average death rates to draw a conclusion about the number of deaths? Sounds very similar to the "study" done after Sturgis by another group of economists.

I wonder if even one single case out of these 12,000 was actually traced back to rally.

Well they do seem to have the Airport audience as their top demographic.

“The researchers used a statistical model to extrapolate infections tied to 18 rallies, and the study’s figures were not based on individual cases traced directly to particular campaign events.”
In other words, there is zero direct evidence. This is just a model applied to the number of people who attended the rallies. None were actually traced to any of the participants of the rallies...

If you want to know the facts read on the front page of today’s Daily Sun November 13 that states that there has been a 35% increase in the past 30 days in inpatient hospitalizations here in Florida according to Florida Health care officials.
