I was lazy today and didn’t do a proper roundup of links and data. Therefore, today’s update consists of the following:
- San Francisco Bay Area mandates full lockdown. It’s happening. It will happen where you live soon enough
- England giving up on their ‘herd immunity’ insanity. They claim they found new data suggesting young people are also at risk, which brings them up to what we knew a month ago. I lost the link for this.
- RETRACTION: One of the threads I linked to recently was most likely not accurate.
- IMPORTANT NEWS: Anti-inflammatory medications likely make COVID-19 worse.
- A whole town in Italy got tested. 50-75% of people were asymptomatic-positive. Good news in that the death rate is likely half of what we thought. Bad news in that infection risk is much much much higher
