Look at this FINE social distancing going on here. They are making sure to stay at least 6 inches away from eachother. Thats the amount right?
They also are making sure to wear their mask - AND making sure to wear it inbetween bites (not just before/after).
What fucking morons that can't even practice what they preach. Probably because they know these rules are moronic. These are the same morons that have said everyone needs to stay at home for Thanksgiving and do any family gathering virtually.
That, and you don't necessarily have to be all that brilliant to be a doctor. You've gotta be good at memorizing and regurgitating facts, sure, but not necessarily what we envision when someone colloquially says "this isn't brain surgery." I know plenty of board certified physicians, generalists, specialists, surgeons and the like who are idiots. Shrug.The short answer is that relatively smart people who chose to believe in their delusions have deep levels of cognitive dissonance operating to protect their egos from reality.
I've only ever worked with Emergency Medicine doctors, and I've never come across one that I'd consider anything other than very intelligent and quick on their feet. Of course, it might be because Emergency Medicine is kind of a jack of all trades specialty always coming across unknown/random problems.That, and you don't necessarily have to be all that brilliant to be a doctor.

Absolutely not. I listened to insiders in China.You listened to Trump, huh? You should know better by now.

Wait, you mean we shouldn't trust the Chinese government?Absolutely not. I listened to insiders in China.
Trump is an imbecile, but China lied.
I voted against Trump, but China lied.
China lied.
I've been saying it since Trump and the WHO were still praising China. It's all recorded here in this forum.
Parked and was waiting to cross traffic to walk into the store. Cars stopped from both directions to let us cross. We acknowledged with a wave and crossed. Both vehicles started moving but the one from our left rolled down the window and yelled "COVID'S A LIE!"
Obviously, he was making an inference about us from our masks, since there was nothing else about us that implies we were duped by COVID lies or anything. Wish I could tell him that I've had my masks since January based on what I knew about what was happening in China while China was still lying about it, so it has nothing to do with what the government says/does. Heck, they literally told us to stop buying masks and not to wear them and that they were ineffective. As my record in the OT Coronavirus thread shows, I saw through that noise and applied critical thinking/healthy skepticism.
Obviously, I don't need him to tell me about governments lying to us about COVID-19. Love how conspiracy nuts think they are the real skeptics.

I always remember this from an AD&D manual in the 80's (I'm paraphrasing):I've only ever worked with Emergency Medicine doctors, and I've never come across one that I'd consider anything other than very intelligent and quick on their feet. Of course, it might be because Emergency Medicine is kind of a jack of all trades specialty always coming across unknown/random problems.
But yes, high intelligence doesn't necessarily mean there's a lot of critical thinking going on in the background.
I really want trump to clear this up. Is it chyna lied or the democratic plot that are responsible for COVID? He seems to waffle between the two options.China was lying. Where have you been?

It won't be forthcoming.So what? Your assertion that China lied remains unsupported. Show us, in the timeline I offered, at exactly what point China lied & provide links to back it up.
Heh, you should have run up to the open car window, ripped off your mask, coughed and spit then yelled I have COVID you idiot. Then run like Hell.
Yea, a regime like CPC has the ability to choke out information on the ground and they will do so if they perceive it to be in their interest ... on the other hand they may perceive it to in their interest to be as forthcoming as possible... point being we cant know.I'm not aware of any specific lies about COVID from the CCP - but I don't regard them as particularly trustworthy, so it wouldn't surprise me if I missed some.
What did annoy me was the WHO opposing restrictions on travel to-and-from China, while at the same time applauding China's internal travel restrictions. For a while there Beijing was better shielded from the infection than were cities outside China. In general both the WHO and most governments seemed to regard international travel as weirdly sacrosanct, while being much happier with internal travel restrictions.
Trump's travel restrictions seemed like a case of stopped-clock syndrome. Badly executed but maybe doing the right thing for probably the wrong reasons.
article said:30 December - The health commission in Wuhan notifies local hospitals of a "pneumonia of unclear cause", and asks them to report any related information of suspicious cases in the past week.
Ai Fen, a leading doctor at Wuhan Central hospital, receives medical results from a patient with a suspected coronavirus.
Dr Ai takes a photo of the results and sends it to another doctor in the area. It circulates among the medical community in Wuhan.
Another doctor at Wuhan Central hospital, Dr Li Wenliang, sends a message to fellow doctors in a chat group warning them about the outbreak and advising they wear protective clothing to avoid infection. Dr Li is later summoned to the Public Security Bureau and accused of "making false comments" that had "severely disturbed the social order".
I think the question was if local officials directed keeping it quiet in December or was it a national policy from the central government. The local officials certainly took the blame for it.China lying - I certainly remember China's early cover-up back in December, and it wouldn't surprise me if they've fudged their stats, but I don't know anything specific beyond their attack on the doctor who tried to spread awareness then:
Coronavirus: What did China do about early outbreak?
China and the US are in a tense war of words but what actually happened during the early outbreak?www.bbc.co.uk
Let remember that Trump and many of his syncopate supporters have also attacked people that dare speak the truth about the spread of the virus, including suppressing actual data. When throwing rocks at China, be careful you don't break your own windows.China lying - I certainly remember China's early cover-up back in December, and it wouldn't surprise me if they've fudged their stats, but I don't know anything specific beyond their attack on the doctor who tried to spread awareness then:

Covidiots - anyone getting Covid tests so they can travel for Thanksgiving when Dr. Fauci has explicitly recommended that people not travel for the holidays.
