The dust is settling a bit, more testing is being done here in the US, and rational and informed perspectives are beginning to entering the main stream media, which until now, has been driven by hype and fear.

Consider the comments of the following 12 medical professionals in the article below. I find the comment by Dr Peter Goetzsche, Professor of Clinical Research Design and Analysis at the University of Copenhagen and founder of the Cochrane Medical Collaboration particularly insightful:

"Our main problem is that no one will ever get in trouble for measures that are too draconian. They will only get in trouble if they do too little. So, our politicians and those working with public health do much more than they should do.

No such draconian measures were applied during the 2009 influenza p******c, and they obviously cannot be applied every winter, which is all year round, as it is always winter somewhere. We cannot close down the whole world permanently.

Should it turn out that the epidemic wanes before long, there will be a queue of people wanting to take credit for this. And we can be damned sure draconian measures will be applied again next time. But remember the joke about tigers. “Why do you blow the horn?” “To keep the tigers away.” “But there are no tigers here.” “There you see!”

Mass Fear, panicking, ignorance, media hype, propaganda, and indoctrination.

Experts, according to Merrian-Webster dictionary, is "a person with a high level of knowledge or sk**ls in a field".

The current leadership and politicians, aren't no where near being a Expert.

Maybe Experts in the art of deception, propaganda, as FEAR advocates, but, far from being experts.

My wife wrote me yesterday, from Russia, and expressed her concerns, about what she is viewing, and hearing coming from the USA.

C****av***s p******c hype, and terrorism tactics of deaths, occurring, the lockdowns, and destruction of the economic.

After work yesterday, I stopped in Harlem to buy something from a local store.

The African American male, store clerk, said to another customer, "he looks sick", referring to me.

The Hispanic couple he directed his dysfunctional, ignorance statement to, was on the train with me, and got off at the same stop.

The female moved aside as I exist the store, and gave me the evil eye, so I said don't believe that.

African American male, when from being a store clerk, to a medical C****av***s diagnoses doctor, at night.

Experts vs. ignorance, incompetent, and acquired Intelligence deficiency syndrome ("AIDS").

At the onset of the C****av***s C****-** p******c, I made this public statement, and challenged many in the public, and community.

Ignorance will k**l thousands, and asked this question... what is more dangerous then C****av***s. I gave individuals three chances, to come up with the answer.

No one could tell me 🤣, and when I revealed the answer, they agreeded, not, with me, but with the T***H.

Ignorance is more dangerous then C****av***s, and John Doe, the store clerk, confirmed it.

How did John Doe get his medical license, on his back, or knees... Intelligence inquiring minds want to know.

To all the fools who are hiding out in their caves and are afraid to venture outdoors lest they die. I have a v***s that will really scare you, it's deadly and infects more Americans than any flu going around but not one major media site says anything about it. Once you have it, you have it for life. It is the CMV. Yes, the Cytomegalov***s that 50 to 85% of all Americans are currently carrying in their bodies. It is a herpes type v***s. In spite of this staggering number, Americans are still hugging, kissing, having intimate relationships, eat from the same utensils and cups in restaurants, shake hands and don't wear surgical masks or gloves. And guess what, if you are one of the lucky 15% who don't have CMV you are indeed sought after to give blood to the young babies that have a depressed i****e s****m. Don't believe me??? Check it out on any web site. Now this should strike fear in any l*****t media types that love to scare the hell out of you!!!

From the article and very true:

Dr Joel Kettner s professor of Community Health Sciences and Surgery at Manitoba University, former Chief Public Health Officer for Manitoba province and Medical Director of the International Centre for Infectious Diseases.

What he says:

I have never seen anything like this, anything anywhere near like this. I’m not talking about the p******c, because I’ve seen 30 of them, one every year. It is called influenza. And other respiratory illness v***ses, we don’t always know what they are. But I’ve never seen this reaction, and I’m trying to understand why.

[…]

I worry about the message to the public, about the fear of coming into contact with people, being in the same space as people, shaking their hands, having meetings with people. I worry about many, many consequences related to that.

In Hubei, in the province of Hubei, where there has been the most cases and deaths by far, the actual number of cases reported is 1 per 1000 people and the actual rate of deaths reported is 1 per 20,000. So maybe that would help to put things into perspective.
