So, for YEARS we have had discussions about how social media spreads false or misleading information.

So...with the polling failures this year, are mainstream outlets going to do any soul searching on their own spread of false and misleading info?

pewresearch.org/internet/2019/…
Joe Biden is going to win the popular vote by about 3% most likely. Polls predicted about 7%.

Any poll on this list showing a Biden lead of 6 or above basically was outside the margin of error, give or take. 9/13 of these missed. Image
Other misses:
Predicted/Actual

FL Biden 0.9/Trump 3.4
OH Trump 0.9/Trump 8
PA Biden 1.2/Pending
WI Biden 6.7/Biden 0.2
MI Biden 4.2/Biden 2.8
AZ Biden 0.9/Pending
NV Biden 2.4/Pending

While places such as the U.S. and Europe are learning to live with Covid-19, other countries see even one case as one too many wsj.com/articles/as-co… via @WSJ
Every one of the success stories are either authoritarian (China and North Korea...people forget about latter), or island or remote locale that put in strict border restrictions early, with massive testing of all in coming visitors.

Europe and the US were unwilling to do either.
Clearly the Democratic nations of the West were not going to lock up people in their apartments, or let some people die, to solve the pandemic like China did.

But we COULD have closed our borders, quarantined anyone that came in for 14 days, and tested them all vigorously.

Remember, in March/April, when I said the WHO was ACTIVELY helping China hide facts on COVID...and I got attacked for it?

Yeah.

The WHO, UN, etc all failed us as much as anyone on the planet.

"There is powerful evidence that the new coronavirus passed naturally from an animal into humans...But though they agree that many cases were linked to the market in Wuhan, many scientists no longer believe it is where the outbreak began."
"What was not publicly known was that committee’s Jan. 23 decision followed intense lobbying...members are experts largely insulated from influence [but ]China’s ambassador made it clear that his country would view WHO emergency declaration as a vote of no confidence."

Time to put up or shut up.

Caveats:
1. I am almost the worst person ever on this. I haven't been right about the winner since 08.
2. I think Biden wins. I have thought that all year long (and thought he was the best shot before that).
3. I think EC will be surprisingly close.
I'd honestly be shocked if Trump won MI or WI. It was the flukiest fluke of flukes he won it last time. A slight AA increased turnout shifts that election. I think Biden has accomplished at least that.
I would NOT be surprised if Biden wins Ohio. And NE-1.

I would be a little surprised if Biden wins Florida or Iowa.

I would NOT be surprised if Trump wins Minnesota.

I would be slightly surprised if Trump wins Pennsylvania or Arizona.

That...is not exactly what the study says.
"In this study, index patients were defined as the first household members with COVID19–compatible symptoms who received a positive SARS reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test result, and who lived with at least one other household member."

See a problem?
First, we know a high percentage of COVID infected patients are ASYMPTOMATIC.

Second, we know children are asymptomatic more than adults.

Third, there is suspicion that symptomatic children transfer the virus more often than asymptomatic ones.
