This is just continuation of the same line of thinking, created by the infamous Great Barrington Declaration. Now Jay Bhattacharya & co get to reap what they sow… with mass death and disability.
2019 alone might as well be 10 years ago.
Next year it will be ten years since Harambe died.
As much as it’s overused, “every accusation is a confession”.
It’s sickening how politicians and healthcare influencers are silent about long COVID and how the society as whole tries to pretend that there is no pandemic. The price for all that will be paid if H5N1 becomes a global pandemic.
Execpt herd immunity doesn’t apply to viruses that mutate heavily and where the immunity isn’t durable. Dr. Anthony Fauci previously believed that herd immunity could be achieved with COVID, but he has since changed his mind:
So, with regard to that issue and something you mentioned earlier, how should we define herd immunity with respect to COVID, I mean, how do we think of it?
I wrote a paper on that. It was a simple paper [9]. It stated that we cannot apply the standard criteria of herd immunity. It’s not applicable with SARS-CoV-2. And the reason is, it’s simple. I can synopsize the paper in 30 seconds. One is that herd immunity is dependent on an immune response that is durable, measured in decades to a lifetime, and a pathogen that does not change. So, you have clear-cut herd immunity with measles. Why? The measles that I got infected with as a child, because I was born before the measles vaccine, is the same measles that’s killing kids in the developing world today.
Number 2, if you get infected with measles or you get vaccinated with measles, the duration of protection minimally is decades and maximally is lifetime. Those are the criteria that you need for herd immunity. Because if you have a pathogen that keeps changing like the multiple variants of SARS, and if you have a duration of immunity that’s measured in months, the entire concept of herd immunity is no longer valid. That’s the point.
Considering how repeat COVID infections can cause cumulative damage, which includes immune system problems, one could expect flu waves to become deadlier. All those laptop class academics who preached about “herd immunity” via infection must be feeling great right now.

And this is a problem we won’t have with Lemmy.
Resist, Americans, resist!
Looks like the game got deleted from the Xbox store.
That title screen surely looks AI generated. The gameplay doesn’t look like what the title screen would give away. How can the Xbox handle a game like this? Where’s quality control?
In the 2000s and 2010s Brand was seen as a progressive who rallied against the 1 % with some hippie spirituality thing sprinkled in. He started his own YouTube channel. Then around 2020 he was slowly incorporating things like The Great Reset, rallying against vaccine mandates and other right-wing talking points. He started to appear with Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro and the like. The rebranding reached a culmination in April 2024, when he was baptised.
