you wanted a citation then you got upset when I gave you oneCause some smart guy said so...
You're the one who's upset and trying to spread the notion that I'm having a mental breakdown. By all means though, please expound on how you can simply infer that the lockdowns have made the viral spread 20% of what it would have been simply because of "the law of large numbers". I am genuinely interested.you wanted a citation then you got upset when I gave you one

So yuo have no proof.ok
Are you familiar with multiplication
no I doSo yuo have no proof.
got it
I challenge you to honestly explicate my arguments in the other lockdown thread, instead of just trolling because they make you upset. Just read the arguments, they're full of nuance and science and examples. You have time, you're enjoying the lockdown. Read the whole thread, take your time, find the flaws in my arguments carefully. I genuinely hope you can show me, honestly, where I'm wrong.no I do
It has to do with multiplication though and I’m not sure if you’re familiar with the concept

I'm not suggesting you do those things, unless you need to buy supplies, in which case you should wear a mask and regularly wash your hands. In fact, everyone should be practicing such things. Especially grocery store workers. Furthermore, you should assume that everyone is a carrier, including yourself. These are basic guidelines, that's why the WHO changed its stance yet again on masks.ok
My wife and child had the exact symptoms of covid a month ago. I stayed home despite having zero symptoms and exposed myself to zero people
If I went out and exposed myself to a dozen co workers and another dozen grocery store workers and another several dozen grocery store shoppers, what would the end result have been
The epidemic isn't due to Trump. His fuckups made the lockdowns necessary, though. The caravaners are idiots who just made their own situations worse by ignoring the lockdown orders. A few will end up dead for it. I'm ok with that. They are fucking it up for the rest of us by being stupid asses.Michigan has drive-through testing and a small army of contact tracers. So it's much more than just a lockdown. That's the problem with politicized articles. I despise Trump and his acolytes too, but to take a John's Hopkins study and say that it's aligned with the political point against caravaners made by WaPo is just as dishonest as the shit you hate.
if lockdowns don’t work then why shouldn’t I have exposed more people to covid rather than less (zero) people?I'm not suggesting you do those things, unless you need to buy supplies, in which case you should wear a mask and regularly wash your hands.

No, I genuinely disagree with it. Those gains can be explained by the other factors. I agree with the rest of this comment though.The epidemic isn't due to Trump.

I posted the figures that pretty much say lockdowns work whether you choose to acknowledge it or not. Personally, I think you are just arguing for the sake of it.
So, you're fiiiiiinally fessing up!!? It must have taken some courage for you to admit this.exposed myself to a dozen co workers and another dozen grocery store workers and another several dozen grocery store shoppers,
They had human to human transmission before any of them. Swedish patient zero flew straight in from Wuhan on the 24th of January. I know that is news to you, but I was actually paying attention to the Wu-flu at that point, when people were making silly comments and memes and shitposting in my thread about it.Seems like more proof that lockdowns work:
Sweden (no lockdown) now has more covid cases than all other Scandinavian countries (lockdowns) combined.
care to explain @abandonconflict
