> That doesn’t mean anything at all. It could just be random.

This is not a serious response. The correlation is far too definite to be mere chance; and the mechanisms that cause it not hard to understand. Or in plain English: it's not random.




It’s a very serious response, and it isn’t my job to prove. All the lockdown proponents need to prove their draconian, Stone Age mitigation’s did anything at all. As far as I can see it’s just blind luck that one region “did better” than a other.


You don’t want to be forced to do anything. I get that.

Pandemic response is not coded into us, it’s something we have to consciously do- and it’s draining to fight an invisible enemy.

I have issues with authority, so I understand the desire to fight against being told what to do.

But you’re denying science, this is not helpful.


The pandemic respond we got was not at all what we planned. It was using something completely untested and unproven with huge massive negative side effects. It was and still is unethical and immoral.

Science has nothing to do with these NPIs because science doesn’t tell society what do to.
