World Health Organization Appeals to World Leaders: STOP USING LOCKDOWNS- MAKES POOR PEOPLE POORER

pro-lockdown people are sick in the head.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-10-21/health-review-launched-into-four-babies-deaths-in-adelaide/12796640

the cause of this cluster? a travel restriction put into place because of Covid-19.

Average age of death by covid in Australia 86.5.

Average life expectancy, 82.5. I won't bother with math on loss of life years.

person above me is linking a website that says the highest increase in excess deaths was from 25-44 -year-olds. What is causing all of them to die? deaths of despair caused by the lockdowns? this is what gets linked to support the lockdowns. LOL!

COVID may be less deadly than initially thought, because it is more contagious.

Here's a recent study finding a significant amount (45.5%) of asymptomatic infections in a nursing home:

No one is supporting lockdowns as a primary means of control.

Most are supporting social distancing and mask wearing when you cannot social distance.

Your article says that "a lack of services" in Adelaide was the cause of the deaths.

Supporters of lockdowns like the comfortable in his home with plenty of resources RoyBoy support this:

Award-winning investigative journalist David Rose wrote a sensational front page story for the Mail yesterday, documenting the scale of the collateral damage to public health caused by the lockdown and the continuing restrictions. Bringing together more than 130 studies, as well as testimony from readers who have contacted him via Lockdown Sceptics, the article documented the impact of this disastrous policy on every sphere of health, including cancer, heart disease, addiction, the welfare of children, domestic violence and mental illness.

Among the revelations are:

Delays in treatment are set to cause a 20% rise in deaths among newly diagnosed cancer patients in England – 6,270 excess deaths this year

Treatment for strokes fell by 45% during lockdown and there were more than 2,000 excess deaths in from heart disease

More than 50,000 operations for children were cancelled

Organ transplants fell by two thirds, with the number of those who died on the transplant waiting list almost doubling

Total waiting lists for routine orthopaedic and eye operations are at record levels

Calls to child abuse helplines rocketed

As rates of depression and anxiety doubled, thousands of recovering alcoholics have relapsed

David lined up an impressive array of experts to comment on these horrendous figures.

Professor Karol Sikora, a cancer specialist and head of Buckingham Medical School, said the findings of the Mail’s audit were a “stunning demonstration of lockdowns’ harmful effects across society”.

He added: “If lockdown were a drug, you’d need to consider the side effects, and yet we’re not – even though we seem to be diving headlong into another one.

“People sometimes claim it’s a question of health versus the economy, but it’s not – it’s health versus health.” Professor Sikora supports last week’s Great Barrington Declaration, now signed by more than 10,700 scientists and 29,700 doctors worldwide, calling on governments to adopt an approach of ‘focused protection’, shielding the vulnerable while opening up the economy.

Sunetra Gupta, one of the Declaration’s authors and an Oxford University epidemiologist, said: “These papers and data are starting to build the evidence to show that the collateral damage has been immense – and will continue with extreme measures such as lockdowns. The time has surely come to take their full costs measures into account.”

Lockdown Sceptics, run by Tony Young, the well known eugenicist who supports screening embryos for IQ (but only for poor people, obviously)

Wonder why he downplays a virus which is likely to effect the elderly, disabled and low-income the most.... ummmm...

Be sure to avoid the content of the following and attack the messenger- that you do so illustrates you are a sociopath- what are impacting the elderly and low-income are the policies of lockdown:

Effect of lockdowns

We must open up because we’re killing people. In the US, 46% of the six most common cancers were not diagnosed during the shutdown… These are people who will present to the hospital or their doctor with later stage disease – many of these people will die. 650,000 Americans are on chemotherapy ­– half of them didn’t come in for their chemo because they were afraid. Two-thirds of screenings for cancer were not done; half of childhood immunisations did not get done; 85% of living organ transplants did not get done. And then we see the other harms: 200,000 cases plus of child abuse in the US during the two months of spring school closures were not reported because schools are the number one agency where abuse is noticed; we have one out of four American young adults, college age, who thought of killing themselves in the month of June…

All of these harms are massive for the working class and the lower socioeconomic groups. The people who are upper class, who can work from home, the people who can sip their latte and complain that their children are underfoot or that they have to come up with extra money to hire a tutor privately – these are people who are not impacted by the lockdowns.

This is the topic, this is why you open up. A secondary gain might be population immunity, but this is the reason to open up.

It's relevant to scrutinize sources. It's rule one of journalism.

I'm not suggesting lockdowns are cost-free and we definitely need to support those most affected. In fact lockdowns aren't really the focus, I'm much more concerned why the world's biggest economies can't adequately organize testing so we can track the spread. That would make lockdowns redundant.

You're very quick to talk about 'agendas' when it comes to Democrats or media or whoever. This guy has an agenda. He's said if he were to die of COVID, combating it is still not justified because the GDP loss from lockdown is greater than the GDP contribution he and those who die have made.

What is the content then?

These aren't effects of the lockdown. The root cause here is a pandemic, which unavoidably has direct and indirect consequences. With no restrictions, and business as usual, it will be like New York was in April, for all of America. Many of these cancer patients, transplant patients, and doctors, will still die. We must pick our poison.

As far as I know, hospitals aren't locked down, being considered "essential".

They might be at over-capacity because of an out of control pandemic. The best way to avoid that is to get the spread of a very contagious and lethal virus under control.

Everyone wants kids to go to back to school. The best way to achieve that is to get the spread of a very contagious and lethal virus under control.

What is sorely lacking in the USA is national leadership and coordination. Besides a partial travel ban on China in January, what has been done?

That way you can be sure you're mindlessly passing on a false narrative.

Oh yeah, don't trust journalists. Much better to believe what The Party tells you.

Those are both the same thing.

Why would you trust any of them, especially this year?

Think logically.

Make up your own mind about what makes sense and what doesn't.

It's not about trust, it's about passing a discerning eye over everything you see. It's clear you have no idea what to think and have rejected everything.

It's very easy from the sources you cite to see which corners of the internet you've been to and very easy to see why the people you listen to are spreading the narrative they do. Toby Young, @Allen53's source believes in eugenics and hyper-utilitarianism. He's only ever going to post anti-lockdown messages because unless the virus is going to effect the economy by killing enough productive members, we should all do our patrio-economic duty and ignore it.

It's about recognizing the position your sources speak from. Nobody expects (or wants) balanced opinion but just honesty of opinion.

appleswan wrote:

Well that's good, but you're getting your information from sources, so you're not using that discerning eye.

I have no idea who Tony Young is and don't care. However, I do know who Joe Biden is and what his policies are.

appleswan wrote:

Oh I know what to think and I do. I believe in the truth, which is very important to me.

Therefore, I reject anything that doesn't make any sense, and even more, anything which isn't the truth.

Oh I went shopping today again, to Costco, Home Depot and Walmart.

--

I did not wear a mask at any time, and no one said anything about it, except the guy at the entrance to Costco, who I've known there for years and years. I simply said that I don't wear one for health reasons and he happily waved me into the store. No one else anywhere said anything.

--

As usual, people were coming up talking to me in every one of the stores and making conversation. I imagine they were quite happy to see someone who they could actually talk with. So we smiled and laughed, and then went on our ways. The employees were quite friendly with me too.

--

I didn't bother to even notice if anyone else was wearing a mask or not, as I'm quite comfortable now not wearing one, whether anyone else is or not.

--

I encourage YOU, if you likewise don't believe in the masking or in wearing a diaper on your face, to do the same thing and go shopping without it. Otherwise, you're really being complicit with perpetuating the lockdown hypocrisy. Seriously, just TAKE OFF THAT MASK and go shopping. How far would you run in a marathon with a mask on? Well life is a marathon, so take off that mask.

There are other sites if you want to keep writing auto-erotic fiction.
