CDC cannot provide the specific risk level for every activity in every community and errs on the side of protection when it comes to recommending steps to protect health." aka WE LIE The CDC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah when the medical consensus on excess deaths are studied and ALL information is in-total covid death projection will be at a minimum 15-20% higher. They already know the numbers are missing covid deaths. there is no reputable evidence of an overcount. Edited May 11, 2021 by Stallion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my favorite quotes from the article so far is this: "Saying that less than 10 percent of Covid transmission occurs outdoors is akin to saying that sharks attack fewer than 20,000 swimmers a year. (The actual worldwide number is around 150.) It’s both true and deceiving." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are "revelations" about their own data right now. Their own numbers do not support their own recommendations. For example, implying that healthy college kids are at risk from dying from Covid is not just ignoring your own data but going out of your way to deceive people. These people cannot be trusted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another quote from the article suggests just what I was saying the other day: "Multiple officials have said that the CDC will continue to monitor the data in "real time" and make adjustments as needed, including Dr. Anthony Fauci and the agency’s director, Dr. Rochelle Walensky. However, critics say the agency’s conservative approach to dropping mask mandates is discouraging some from seeking vaccines." Hear that? Their conservative approach to dropping mask mandates is discouraging people from getting vaccinated. Idiots.

jpurdy Posted May 11, 2021 #109 Share Posted May 11, 2021 (edited) Been watching the CDC hearing on C-span just now. Murkowski specifically addressed cruises from her state (Alaska), and the confusion surrounding start up. Dr. Walensky stressed they are working very hard with the cruise lines to start up this season. When, of course, is fluid for sure. But, it was nice to at least hear her acknowledge that they want to help the cruise lines begin their business as soon as possible. I believed her.

But it's hard to see anything sailing in 2 months. Only if the CDC eases up on some of their contractual requirements between the cruise lines and local facilities, which are way too onerous and time consuming to achieve as they currently exist. The NCL CEO said recently that it would take at least 6 months to meet all their requirements. I don't think anything definitive will happen today at the hearing in Tampa, but hopefully, we'll see in which direction the judge is leaning towards.

In general conservative judges would be more open to the cruise companies whereas liberal judges mostly lean towards the government [my personal opinion] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is ludicrous that she is from Alaska and does not understand what cruising does for her state, unfathomable!

Rare BecciBoo Posted May 11, 2021 #115 Share Posted May 11, 2021 As I said in another thread, it's ironic they require these silly protocols from ships and not from our own public beaches and then let kids run wild over spring break, but can't allow a ship full of vaccinated passengers to sail. Yes, they are shooting theirselves in the foot with the false premise that you can't trust their own highly touted daily vaccines...the height of contradiction. And confusion! It's just astounding. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In another study, four of 103 instances are classified as outdoors; again, all four are from Singapore construction sites. This obviously doesn’t make much sense.
