Covid and lock downs in a nutshell

[Thiel]

Manitoba has been lucky so far keeping variants low. Hopefully we get a lot more people vaccinate before our luck runs out.

'How Did Your Audience Wind Up Believing Such A Lot Of Crap?': Bill Maher Rips Liberal Media For COVID 'Panic Porn'

https://dailycaller.com/2021/04/17/bill-maher-rips-liberal-media-covid-panic-porn/?utm_source=piano&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2360&pnespid=0_twqqRSBQuNVYht71SrPfFzY0.pbUalFbztd8Og">https://dailycaller.com/2021/04/17/bill ... alFbztd8Og">https://dailycaller.com/2021/04/17/bill-maher-rips-liberal-media-covid-panic-porn/?utm_source=piano&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2360&pnespid=0_twqqRSBQuNVYht71SrPfFzY0.pbUalFbztd8Og



Comedian and HBO host Bill Maher lashed out at media during his Friday monologue, arguing that coronavirus "panic porn" has resulted in a badly misinformed public.



Maher said that it wasn't fair to claim that only Republicans are surrounded by a "misinformation bubble" when Democrats, according to a Gallup survey, believe so much false information when it comes to the coronavirus pandemic.



"Over the past year, the COVID pandemic has prompted the medical establishment, the media and the government to take a 'scared straight' approach to getting the public to comply with their recommendations," Maher began. "Well, I'm from a different school: Give it to me straight, Doc. Because in the long run that always works better than 'You can't handle the truth.'"



Maher said he understands why doctors might not always be straightforward with their patients, adding, "And media? Well, I think we all know if it bleeds, it leads. The more they can get you to stay inside and watch their panic porn, the higher their ratings."



The U.S. media, Maher said, has consistently painted a more negative picture of the pandemic than other outlets around the world. While the coverage in other countries has mixed the positive news in with the negative, he noted that American media coverage has remained nearly 90% negative.



"When all of our sources for medical information have an agenda to spin us, yeah, you wind up with a badly misinformed population, including on the left," Maher continued. "Liberals often mock the Republican misinformation bubble, which of course is very real ... but what about liberals? You know, the high-information, by-the-science people?"



Maher then noted that, according to a Gallup survey on coronavirus, Democrats have been "wildly off" on the question asking how likely it was for someone who had COVID-19 to require hospitalization. Just 10% of Democrats gave the correct answer — 1 to 5% — while 41% of Democrats believed more than 50% of those infected would need to be hospitalized.



According to that same survey, Maher said that Democrats greatly exaggerated views of how dangerous COVID-19 was to children — which he said could be the reason that the majority of schools that have remained closed are in blue states.



Maher even praised Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, adding, "And maybe that's why he protected his most vulnerable population, the elderly, way better than did the governor of New York. Those are just facts, I know it's irresponsible of me to say them."

Doug Ford recently enacted pandemic-related restrictions that are so strict that not even law enforcement agencies are willing to enforce them.

Covid, Vienna court: "PCR tests have no diagnostic value"

Covid, Vienna court: "PCR tests have no diagnostic value"

In Europe there is growing intolerance for anti-Covid tests and rules. The first controversy comes directly from the administrative court in Vienna and concerns the tampon policy in Austria. A ruling of March 24, 2021, reports the Austrian site tkp.at, questions the use of test PCR, considering them not "suitable" and not diagnostically relevant. For the administrative court, which has closely studied the basics of Austrian federal government policy, Health Minister Anschober's definition of illness is completely wrong and unfounded.



Furthermore, in a passage of the text (attached at the end of the article), the court highlights how disinformation by the mainstream media has done nothing but fuel doubts and confusion: "The health service of the city ​​of Vienna uses the words "number of cases", "test results", "case events" and "number of infections". This confusion terms does not do justice to a scientific assessment of the epidemic situation. For theWHO the decisive factor is the number of infected people and not those who tested positive or other "case numbers".

Testing is pretty accurate.

Americans will need a vaccine passport in order to travel to Europe this summer.



More than one year after the European Union shut down nonessential travel from most of the world, the bloc will reopen its borders to American tourists this summer. There's one catch: those tourists will have to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19, European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen told The New York Times.
