Compiled my own copypasta of linked scientific articles on why (((COVID))) is bullshit. Please spread these further than the scamdemic.

submitted by LoliNeko to whatever 2.8 yearsJun 16, 2021 05:40:20 ago (+40/-1)     (whatever)*

1) Non-Pharmaceutical Interventions (NPIs) such as lockdowns, masks and social distancing don't provide clear benefits, as analyzed across 16 countries by Stanford University: "After subtracting the epidemic and lrNPI effects, we find no clear, significant beneficial effect of mrNPIs on case growth in any country." (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/eci.13484). This can be also be observed in Sweden and Wisconsin, USA.

2) Asymptomatic people, by definition, are unable to spread CoViD-19 as reported by a study of almost 10 million people in Wuhan by Nature: "There were no positive tests amongst 1,174 close contacts of asymptomatic cases." (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-19802-w)

3) Masks don't work when the virus is far smaller than the perforations in the masks' fabric, as studied among 4862 participants in Denmark by the Annals of Internal Medicine: "Infection with SARS-CoV-2 occurred in 42 participants recommended masks (1.8%) and 53 control participants (2.1%)." (https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M20-6817)

4) The RT-PCR test generates a lot of false positives, as much as 30% on a Cycle Threshold (Ct) value of 25, and up to 97% at Ct=35! Only 3% of positive cases actually have the virus within them cultured successfully at Ct=35. Testing centres globally have reported that their PCR tests are run at cycle thresholds of 35 to 40! The number of positive cases isn't clear-cut as it can be arbitrarily tuned by the Ct sensitivity, as reported by Oxford's Clinical Infectious Diseases from 3790 samples: "It can be observed that at Ct = 25, up to 70% of patients remain positive in culture and that at Ct = 30 this value drops to 20%. At Ct = 35, the value we used to report a positive result for PCR, <3% of cultures are positive." (https://academic.oup.com/cid/advance-article/doi/10.1093/cid/ciaa1491/5912603). This is also verified in an interview with Dr Anthony Fauci, who is the Chief Medical Advisor to President Joe Biden: "If you get [perform the test at] a cycle threshold of 35 or more…the chances of it being replication-confident [aka accurate] are minuscule, you almost never can culture virus [detect a true positive result] from a 37 threshold cycle, even 36" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_Vy6fgaBPE&feature=youtu.be&t=260)

5) 94% of people who died of CoViD were already suffering from other diseases, with an average of 2.6 comorbidities, as reported by CDC in USA: "Table 3 shows the types of health conditions and contributing causes mentioned in conjunction with deaths involving coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). For 6% of the deaths, COVID-19 was the only cause mentioned. For deaths with conditions or causes in addition to COVID-19, on average, there were 2.6 additional conditions or causes per death." (https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid_weekly/index.htm?fbclid=IwAR3-wrg3tTKK5-9tOHPGAHWFVO3DfslkJ0KsDEPQpWmPbKtp6EsoVV2Qs1Q)

6) The death rate (Infection Fatality Ratio, IFR) has been revised downwards several times in light of new data. The elderly are the most affected, and kids the least affected, thus there is no need to close schools:

a) March 30, The Lancet Vol 20 - 0.66% ( https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3099(20)30243-7/fulltext )
b) April 30, University of Pennsylvania Medical Center - 0.25% (https://www.pennlive.com/news/2020/04/umpc-argues-covid-19-not-as-deadly-as-feared-says-its-hospitals-will-shift-back-to-normal.html)
c) May 3, International Journal of Infectious Diseases Vol 101 - 0.68% (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33007452/)
d) May 24, CDC USA - 0.25% (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/hcp/planning-scenarios.html)

7) Over 58000 medical scientists and practitioners in developed countries have signed the "Great Barrington Declaration" against lockdowns, masks and social distancing, which states: "Those who are not vulnerable should immediately be allowed to resume life as normal. Simple hygiene measures, such as hand washing and staying home when sick should be practiced by everyone to reduce the herd immunity threshold. Schools and universities should be open for in-person teaching. Extracurricular activities, such as sports, should be resumed. Young low-risk adults should work normally, rather than from home. Restaurants and other businesses should open. Arts, music, sport and other cultural activities should resume. People who are more at risk may participate if they wish, while society as a whole enjoys the protection conferred upon the vulnerable by those who have built up herd immunity."

That won't work. Anyone who still believes covid is a thing at this point only believes that because they believe the media wouldn't lie to them. The media IS the authority in their minds. They're in the "Do you think people would do that? Just go on TV and lie?" clueless club. They don't understand how easy it is to lie to them. They don't get they're taking the word of proven liars at face value. That's the disconnect.

If you want to get through to them,you have to get them to understand the media lies. Which is difficult since any evidence you have is "just some right wing conspiracy nonsense".
