The year is 2074. Dan Andrews is 102 years old. It’s been 54 years since a single international tourist visited Melbourne. He starts his press conference: “We’re so close. We’re so close to eliminating this virus. If we just do this snap lockdown for 5 more days, we can do it”
The scientific community, including those in the literal government, did not want to engage with the idea because they were so politically motivated. The only reason the lab leak possibility has become acceptable is because people outside of the community did their work for them
I am not making this up, this is exactly what he said
This blue check ICU doctor said she was “#tootiredforthisshit” which is an excellent summation of how I feel every single day listening to the unending ignorant condescension of people like this, who are so wrapped up in ideological virtue that they’re unwilling to accept reality
In response to seeing packed bars in Old Town Scottsdale, near Phoenix, the Arizona Democratic Party tagged Governor Doug Ducey, as he would obviously be responsible for the immediate surge in cases
To be fair to @CDCgov, an incomprehensibly dumb organization, and to the masks, there are a few exceptions to the mask law that our gracious moronic overlords of pseudoscience have allowed us. Let’s examine them, shall we?
I myself am extremely confused, since I’ve heard it said by many, many experts and politicians that masks are the most important public health tool, that mask mandates are effective, that they’re a “game-changing scientific breakthrough”, that they’re like a vaccine, etc.
⚠️VERY WORRIED
Gotta start it off on a high note with @BradleyWhitford coming in hot with more “GOP is a death cult” loveliness
This thread is going to be obscenely long, and there’s a second one coming, but trust me, it could be so, SO much longer. The amount of devastating idiocy, deranged hyperbole, gaslighting and incompetence we’re all about to experience together is just…beyond description.
An Oxford professor praised their conclusions and said masks “are likely to be an effective population measure”.
You’d think at some point, he’d have to make something remotely approaching an accurate statement, but he just never does and he’s never called out for how demonstrably wrong he is.
So this…this is lying to you. Imagine how much worse it would have been without masks, they might still be the country with the worst death rate in the world.
It literally does not matter what the data shows, because they work. You know it, I know it. They just work. Someone from the CDC decided they work a year ago based on nothing, and now they just work. They don’t have to prove it with data, or actually useful studies. They work.
His experts also said “universal masking at 80% adoption flattens the curve significantly more than maintaining a strict lockdown”
San Bernardino mandated masks very early on, reinforced with a statewide mask mandate in June, strict business closures, curfews, etc. They’ve done the worst, naturally.
If the risk was “minuscule”, why would he say to skip masks to protect supply for healthcare workers? They’d also not have to worry about Covid, considering the “minuscule” risk.
