UK and SA appear to be easily controlling their variants.

UK covid trend




SA covid trend




Their curves look no different than what the USA’s curve looks like. Way up and then way down

Because the longer they can keep people fearful, the longer they can control their lives.

So you're saying a total lockdown like the UK did works.

I hate the idea of shutting down the economy, but if we could put everything on pause for a month that would be nice.

Why though? Every other country that has done an extended lockdown has seen a rapid case increase after the lockdown ended.

It’s because they stopped testing and changed the way they count positive tests.

Notice how both of the peaks drop off at the same time when the new WHO testing guidelines came out.

Apparently all the people of the world wised-up at the exact same time.

Here's a chart showing how obedient Americans have been, and at the exact same time to boot!



Finally all Americans listened to our Lord and Savior, the government. Its a Christm-, er Holiday Miracle!

In absolutely no way could this be due to seasonality. The only explanation for cases going up or down is due to the level of obedience to government bureaucrats.

Seasonality is a conspiracy theory.

They've increased testing and are actually going door to door in some areas. The decrease is because of the lockdown.

From Worldometers:


Remember, South Dakota locked down and wore masks to achieve these results.

Seasonality is a myth. Its science.

I've always wondered what it feels like to believe everything the TV tells me.

How does it feel to be unable to think for yourself?
