My wife's wack job Trumpbot Aunt is always telling her about holistic medicine and natural remedies these days like she's never heard of them. B**ch, you're talking to the wrong woman. My wife was covering herself in crystals and essential oils when you were screaming about socialism and praising the war in Iraq.

Seriously, who the ef is Kevin Bass and why do I care he's having second thoughts about his "tone" during Covid? He's not even arguing he was wrong, he's just arguing that he (and others) acted like a-holes. If anything that makes him look like some weak cuck in the eyes of the right. So whatever. He's not even WRONG, you watch more with honey and all that. But weird that store brand Kevin Bass thinks anybody gives a crap. Except lynched I guess.

No clue, but he sounds like a real moron so it's not surprising that lynched is a follower of his...

February 4, 20232 yr https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36715243/ The latest and most conclusive study to date regarding the effects of masking from the Cochrane Library.
February 4, 20232 yr "and relatively low adherence with the interventions during the studies hampers drawing firm conclusions."
February 4, 20232 yr The skinny with this study. First and foremost, the confidence factors are low, or low to moderate, due to the inability to accurately measure how well people abide with the policies. Therefore, while no positive effects were measured (to date), the possibility of proper masking (both type and use) significantly limiting spread can't be entirely ruled out. What we can conclude though is that the policies themselves had little or no positive effect on preventing the spread though we don't know for sure why (i.e. is that due to people's lack of following the rules/guidelines or due to the lack of effectiveness of the masks themselves, or both?). This was always a main take/angle that somehow failed to gain much traction. Not in the US anyway.

February 18, 20232 yr 10 minutes ago, Tnt4philly said: Who ever said getting covid doesn’t provide immunity? Plenty of people ignored the effects of natural immunity when setting policy. In fact, that was generally the rule in the US rather than the exception.
February 18, 20232 yr Just now, DrPhilly said: Plenty of people ignored the effects of natural immunity when setting policy. This is true. I didn’t agree that they didn’t count the ones that got covid among the vaccinated. Were people saying that getting covid didn’t provide immunity or that they just didn’t know enough at the time and were playing it safe. The risk of adverse effects or death from getting covid is still higher than getting the vaccine. Using covid to provide immunity didn’t work for the ones it killed first.

The risk of adverse effects or death from getting covid is still higher than getting the vaccine. Using covid to provide immunity didn’t work for the ones it killed first. Bingo, natural immunity is still quite variable. Some people have super mild or even entirely asymptomatic illness, which doesn't confer as much immunity compared with those who have more moderate or severe disease. So setting policy based on that dice roll would've been tricky. But guess what anti-vaxers continue to conveniently ignore? Getting vaccinated even after having covid (aka hybrid immunity) provides even better protection.

They pretty much just didn't discuss the topic at all and that was the issue in my book. Had they discussed it logically and argued for the "insurance policy" type approach then that would have been fine with me. They also dragged their feet in changing policy once the evidence started to mount. Note: I'm not suggesting that people shouldn't be vaccinated which is another subject altogether. A good example of not really putting together an optimal approach is the current recommendations regarding vaccination (far as I'm aware). People who have recently had COVID shouldn't be getting a vaccine right away thereafter (you can see that discussed in the article). Better to wait a bit and use the natural immunity as protection and then add a vaccine booster down the road.
