		<description>REGARDING:
&quot;If you are listening to the scientists remember the definition of science is BEST GUESS.&quot;

So remember any other source is worse than the best.

Also remember science makes the guesses by observation and testing those guesses, tossing the ones which don&#039;t agree with reality. Others go with gut feelings and ignore the fact they don&#039;t agree with reality.

Take your pick

One definition is:
&quot;Science is the pursuit and application of knowledge and understanding of the natural and social world following a systematic methodology based on evidence.&quot;

		<description>REGARDING:
&quot;David so what do you suggest…?..Have you researched any of the underlying conditions you get after Covid? Have you researched that you can get Covid AGAIN? You aren’t immune. Usually it’s worse BECAUSE it mutates? I got Covid AT MY JOB from a asymptotic person…You’re arguing against doing the right thing… We can midigate how many people get it at ONCE! Which is the problem…..Social distance. Wear your mask.&quot;

(asymptomatic, mitigate)

The other David isn&#039;t here and I didn&#039;t say what you say I said. You seem confused. Perhaps you think the comment I place in quotes are my thoughts rather than the ones I am responding to.

I have repeatedly pointed out what you said other than the fact that while reinfection is possible, I don&#039;t know of any proven cases of it happening yet.

Most mutations tend to be less deadly but &quot;most&quot; isn&#039;t &quot;ALL.&quot; Many of the potential solutions are based on the idea that viruses mutate rapidly but humans do it slowly so they are trying to block how it takes over the cells.

If this works out, ways to cure many current diseases may also come of the research -- including many cancers.

Social distance. Wear your mask. If we didn’t ack so selfish we could be like other countries who are actually reopening and NOT having cases spike back up. 

This isn’t the political argument people are turning this into.</description>

		<description>REGARDING:
&quot;Do you understand that the CDC &amp; WHO clearly stated 2 months ago that it is almost impossible for an asymptomatic person to spread it as they were telling us to not wear the mask then?&quot;

They said asymptomatic didn&#039;t, presymptomatic did. 
The difference is that you can&#039;t tell which is which until it is too late.
 The first never shows symptoms. 
The second will but hasn&#039;t yet. 

The distinction wasn&#039;t described at first. Many weren&#039;t paying attention the next day.
https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/7/20-1595_article

AND
&quot;For all you who are wondering the worldwide death rate is approximately .000078 of a percent. &quot;

If that were so, the most who could die of XOVID-19 would be 32 people. 
Consider that .000078 of a percent  is 0.00000078 and the population of the planet is about 7.8 billion, 7,800,000,000  x 0.00000078 is 31.4. 
Round up to 32.

Instead we have reports of 599,339 dead (and counting) of 14,189,018 cases which would be 4.2% dead and others sick for weeks or longer and other related diseases cropping up later. I&#039;m thinking that&#039;s just from those who got sick.
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/
https://www.worldometers.info/population/


AND
&quot;the Spanish flu which had world wide death rate of .03 percent&quot;

Actually, the rate was closer to 10% with 50 million dead out of 500 million infected, a third of the world.

From the CDC: &quot;It is estimated that about 500 million people or one-third of the world’s population became infected with this virus. The number of deaths was estimated to be at least 50 million worldwide with about 675,000 occurring in the United States.&quot;
https://www.cdc.gov/flu/pandemic-resources/1918-pandemic-h1n1.html

AND
&quot;no matter how much you wear a mask sooner or later everyone is gonna test positive for it. Just like the flu virus everyone eventually gets it no matter how much you wash your hand or hide your in a hole. It’s a virus even if they get a vaccine for it it will mutate and come back&quot;

Also, please note from above that a third of the world was infected. That means two thirds was not.

		<description>@I got an idea 

Yes, most of us will eventually catch it, but the whole idea is to slow it down so that we don’t all catch it at the SAME TIME. How hard is that to understand?</description>

		<description>Heres the idea why don’t we test the astronauts on the space station. Oh wait if we did that and they tested positive how that would change the narrative on this whole thing. The virus isn’t gonna go anywhere it’s here. And no matter how much you wear a mask sooner or later everyone is gonna test positive for it. Just like the flu virus everyone eventually gets it no matter how much you wash your hand or hide your in a hole. It’s a virus even if they get a vaccine for it it will mutate and come back. So keep on thinking the sky is falling. For all you who are wondering the worldwide death rate is approximately    .000078 of a percent. As compared to the real pandemic of the Spanish flu which had world wide death rate of   .03 percent. The numbers don’t lie. But hey no one is telling you can’t wear your mask. Wear it if it makes you feel safe. Oh and why your wearing your mask I guess you should make sure you wear a condom to. Might save the 10,000,000 million babies killed each year from abortion’s each year.</description>

		<description>Okay if the rest of civilized society can manage a simple face covering without saying there right to infect others is being violated..Why is it so hard to get people to help one another for the greater good? Europe is managing...Canada mandated it and is managing. So sorry for the inconvenience but countries are literally blocking America from traveling to the rest of the world because our cases keep rising! We are the laughing stock of the world currently, they pity us.</description>
