A good article, but I think thousands of hospital employees would disagree with this assertion from the author:
Thousands more would also disagree with the article’s assertion that there is a group in the population that is not vulnerable to Covid-19. Even those who don’t die often have significant long-term health problems as a result of being infected with the virus. If you have other health conditions, that can be severely disabling.
Thanks for the fact check, NorthernHarrier
The sanity checks arrive here at BLF faster than they do at most public discussions nowadays. Higher standards, I think, and more respect for facts.
EXCERPT
The false-positive PCR problem is not a problem. There is, however, a crisis in the lack of understanding about a heretofore obscure branch of science that toils in relative obscurity and a tool it relies on; pathology testing and PCR.
But hey, is anyone actually saying there is a problem? Sadly, yes. These are is a couple of the many I’ve read. One is a comment currently in holding, submitted to this blog. The other a tweet at me last night. And yet despite sounding so sure of itself, it isn’t supported by facts and is simply absolute rubbish.
Back at ya’, hank!

Effectiveness of Adding a Mask Recommendation to Other Public Health Measures to Prevent SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Danish Mask Wearers A Randomized Controlled Trial
Mask use can reduce the number of new Covid-19 infections by close to 50%, study finds
Mask use can reduce the number of new Covid-19 infections by close to 50%, study finds
From CNN’s Shelby Lin Erdman
Mandatory mask usage in parts of Germany last spring helped significantly reduce the number of new Covid-19 infections, a team of German researchers reported in a new analysis.
The team used public data on coronavirus cases to compare regions with and without mandatory mask policies last April.
“Depending on the region we consider, we find that face masks reduced the number of newly registered severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infections between 15% and 75% over a period of 20 days after their mandatory introduction,” researchers wrote. “Assessing the credibility of the various estimates, we conclude that face masks reduce the daily growth rate of reported infections by around 47%.”
The study, which was published Thursday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, also found that certain age groups benefited more from mask usage.
The researchers looked at data from mask use in Jena, a city in central Germany, after a mandatory mask policy took effect between April 1-10.
Whenever you use a news resource such as CNN, to re-enforce your narrative, remember these Jeff Zucker/CNN conference calls, to see what they refer to as “news”.
Just one of many conference CNN calls.

Find someone with more credibility, to push your narrative, CNN doesn’t have it.
Once you listen to these conference calls, you can see CNN no longer does real news.
They report A story, but it’s not always THE story.

hank, your message may be true, but you might want to use another source to push it.
I find cnn.com to be a pretty good source of factual information.

It's way more accurate than many of the sources of some other people in this thread.
CNN has never mistaken an expired SARS patent for proof Anthony Fauci and the CDC violated US Patent Laws to profit from the pandemic.
According to the National Academy of Sciences, it seems that CNN’s reporting on the mask study in Germany is accurate.
Man, the internet is really messing with America’s mind. Cable “news” too. We’re all doubting each other’s sources and all it’s doing is dividing us. Believing in fairy tales is not healthy ever. All it does is lower the bar for everything to become “facts”. This is one case where trickle down really works. Disinformation overload.

This happens in many countries. Politics is forbidden on BLF, otherwise I could point out a driving force behind the conspiracy myth. Well known in Germany.

Yep, when it comes to online drama, apathy is the way to go.
(And that frequently applies to real life drama as well.)

Just stay away from that Pee-BR. Tastes like urine…
