Quoted: Then why isn't there more rampant disease spread during normal times, when EVERYONE is shoulder to shoulder at fairs, concerts, etc? View Quote Because were in fantasy world right now... correlation, causation, real un-doctored statistics mean jack shit.... this shits apparently in the air.. its like playing the floor is lava game as a kid, but its the air is lava with alot of these people .. emotions and feelings are now hard science bro.... |

Quoted: Quoted: Yes. It made sense to close the schools and perhaps large public gatherings as they are primary vectors for disease transmission. Everything else, not so much. Closing schools made no sense. For the greater good. |

Quoted: It's getting harder and harder for me to see this ongoing "shutdown" as anything other than purposeful deception.

I don't need to justify keeping schools open. You need to justify closing them. -Kids don't get this disease. Even if they don't congregate at school, they will congregate elsewhere. -Even if they don't congregate with ANYONE, they would just get sick again once they come back together -The disease isn't that serious to begin with. It's not much different than the flu & pneumonia as far as symptoms or death rate. |

Has anyone heard anything about an end date for the requirement to wear masks at work?

Another great article, though based out of Colorado data, it has a significant numbers of test results to show the IFR is like 0.23%.
https://www.conservativereview.com/news/horowitz-colorado-antibody-testing-proves-cdcs-remarkably-low-fatality-rate-coronavirus/ “If you further divide the Colorado numbers by age group, you get a 0.03% IFR for everyone (sick and healthy together) under the age of 60. Even if you include all those under 70, the IFR comes out to 0.07%.” The whole lockdown has been a sham from the start, and the massaging of data to continue it has been nothing but a raw power grab. Fire Acton and Recall/Vote Out DeWine, with prejudice!! |

Fire Acton and Recall/Vote Out DeWine, with prejudice!! great article. I loved the closing statement: "Such targeted approaches would, however, require a shift away from the notion that we are all seriously threatened by the disease, which has led to levels of personal fear being strikingly mismatched to objective risk of death. Instead, the aim should be to communicate realistic levels of risk as they apply to different groups, not to reassure or frighten but to allow informed personal decisions in a setting of necessary uncertainty." |

View Quote I'm not concerned about it for myself, I can stay in my office pretty much all day. There are a bunch of guys here that I would like to put an end to the mask idocy for them, though. I have yet to hear of an end date for it and I'm surprised it isn't a bigger deal to most people. I expect it to become a bigger issue/complaint once more people across the state return to work and the temps start ramping up. |

Lawsuit filed against Amy Acton She has far too much influence and power for an unelected official. It's extremely disappointing that Dewine blindly follows and defends every single thing she does. Especially when there are facts and statistics to the contrary. |

Don't they know most people are either ignoring social distancing and masking or think the crisis is over due to the stay at home being cancelled?
Last night at a local baseball field there was a regular game going on and the stands were packed shoulder to shoulder. Just came from the park and there was a group of at least 50 kids, soccer team(s) maybe, all under the roof of one of the picnic shelters hanging out. |

Quoted: I don't know. I think it all comes down to how much people trust "those who know better." Don't get me wrong I completely agree with you. I will say that my parents, who are great people but pretty far left politically are still too afraid to leave their apartment.

Yesterday The WHO (of all people) confirmed that transmission from asymptomatic people is "very rare." This is coming from CNBC (not a conservative news site) reporting on a statement from The WHO.

"It's very rare." View Quote Dr Acton: Can we finally stop with all of this bull@#!+ now? ETA: To be fair it looks like they may have realized that they inadvertently revealed the wizard behind the curtain so to speak. They put out this statement today emphasizing that "much is still unknown about transmission."
