If only we would have had more testing and contact tracing and locked down more and Trump didn’t force people to take fish bowl cleaner and inject bleach none of this would have happened.

Mello clings to his false narrative

Take a close look at those on the beds. All olds, all of them. Do you see anyone there that looks younger than 40 y/o. Yet I bet the youngs are all wearing masks in HK.

Dumb people like Herr Dazzler thought we could eradicate a respiratory virus by staying home for 2 weeks. We should try it with colds.RaceBannon said:

Kootenai has zero covid cases in the hospital, zero and we were inundated.

That's what they told me a few days ago... maybe we got some since then. My info is from the nurses and docs working there. Looking at the disclaimer, could be a different hospital still has a few.

Anyway, it’s not zero. -
Yes they are transitioning to a new system. IT guys have been here all week... and i trust the nurses that are no longer wearing their masks as much over you.

Point is it's not gone, and mandates being lifted are for political expediency. I know many nurses who said masks were bullshit in most situations and I know some who lost their jobs over vaccine mandates.Goduckies said:Yes they are transitioning to a new system.

If you believe masks made any measurable difference, you believe a lie. Look no further than deaths by state and rationalize states that did very little as far as mandates/lockdowns go and those that lockdown hard.
Also, the case count is spiking…Bigly

People I talk to here in woke King County like to bring up the low death rate in Washington as an example that it all worked. Would you rather be Florida they ask?MikeDamone said:

I answer I’d rather be Utah than Washington, which has an even lower death rate than Washington and had very little mask mandates and has low vaccine uptake in general.
There are tons of one on one comparables that can make points for both sides. But on the whole that just means there is no correlation between policy and outcomes. So you and I were right.
-
Exactly. You look at the deaths by state and you can’t correlate them with mandates. There are other variables to consider. For example, when saying Florida has a worse outcome then Washington, no one is adjusting for the age of the population. When looking at Mississippi’s poor outcomes, no one is adjusting for obesity and race.Bob_C said:

Florida has lots of old people

When you factor in the average age of the people living in California and Florida there's hardly any difference in the death rates between the two states. Newsome is now out there crowing about what a great job he did in keeping California's death rate so low when compared to backwaters like Florida.MikeDamone said:

Age adjusted California, Illinois and Florida are all right next to each other in death rate. The lock down paradise of Michigan is about 20% higher than that group.RaceBannon said:Florida has lots of old people
Georgia, New York, New Jersey and Ohio are all about 40% higher than the Florida group. It’s all a hot mess, which means we were right. -

Could be Colorado, one of those p12 late addition schools has the healthiest population. The Polynesian Mormon factor makes me believe I was thinking Colorado but giving @89ute credit for running marathonsWestlinnDuck said:

Of all the shit the health “experts” and politicians trotted out…Lockdown, stay home, get multiple shots, don’t take horse meds, wear two masks….the ONE thing controllable thing that contributed the most to the morality is obesity. Did any of these assholes ever push this at all…no, they shut down gyms, golf, parks and beaches. Then fat obese fucks would lecture us on how those who disagreed with mandates where putting their lives in danger. Fuck the fuck off.Doogles said:
