Just to play devils advocate why is a bank doing a study on virus transmission (I know they have a stake in wanting the economy to continue to repair and stimulate) and what gives them expertise in this arena?
I will say I do like the results and will take anything that opens the country up ASAP. Just curious about their qualifications here.
I don't know about this study in particular but the big investment banks like JP, Goldman, Morgan Stanley, Credit Suisse, etc. have some of the best statisticians, economists, and industry experts (including healthcare) anywhere. A friend from college got his MD/PhD from Carolina and now works as a healthcare analyst for a big investment bank. That's not uncommon at all.

Only that JP Morgan is a piece of shite operation who preys on the populous and the government. Them whining about the economy due to the shutdown doesn't shock me at all. Hell, they shite the bed during great economies and have their hand in pockets.

Because some of the biggest industry experts work for these investment banks
JP has tons of virus experts on their payroll

The content isn't something I've EVER disputed. Now, if you want to say I've always played devil's advocate to the Fauci hate or Trump's responses to this, sure. Fire away.

The point is that the lockdown was pointless in terms of covid spread. It didn’t “save lives” or even help protect the hospitals. All it did, according to this study, was crash economies. And we know how many people that affects and that it WILL shorten lives substantially. Way to go, everyone.

Ok?

They aren't doing epidemiology here. They are crunching numbers. Have you seen JPM's quants?

Had politicians been effected financially, they would have an entirely different tune about the shut down

It's 5g folks. I don't know how everyone isn't seeing it yet. You get sicker the more you stay home. Remember the last few years when they were replacing our meters with "smart meters"?
Congratulations, you have COVID.

Someone posted a chart that showed Louisiana with an R0 finless than one — we were ranked 7th best R0.
This was on May 19 and now I can’t find it. Anyone got it??

No, JP Morgan Chase received 13B in 2008.

More JPM: “In the absence of conclusive data, these lockdowns were justified initially.” But “millions of lives were being destroyed .. with little consideration that [lockdowns] might not only cause economic devastation but potentially more deaths than COVID-19 itself.”
I posted this exact opinion on this forum in early April. the resident Klarks or Karens or whatever we call the sky screamers were hyperventilating over how I wasn't taking this serious enough.

its something, but the differences are so small that its hard to take this as a significant data piece
best interpretation is to suggest that this is just more noise to a complicated issue

That makes sense... it probably burns out and you see fewer cases overall.
