Half of the democrats yes, the corporate half. Well, they're more than half, but they're one of two factions so yeah.

The same faction that brainwashed you into thinking masks everywhere is a good idea.

The masks dont do shit anyway. The fact they have openings on the sides show theyre useless. Implying corona is legit

Corona is real but the sheer fearmongering is herpes.

Average age of death is 80 years old what the fuck.

The openings on the side mean that they dont do shit against aerosols, yes, but those masks help significantly against droplets.

It's of course retarded to mandate people to wear masks in non-crowded outdoor situations, or to wear a mask when you're driving alone in your own car.

According to the RKI, basically Germany's version of the CDC, our case numbers have gone up substantially for the third week in a row while the positive rate of our tests remained flat at 0.96 - 0.99%, indicating that the increase in daily cases is due to more widespread testing rather than an acceleration of the underlying spread:

Finally some published, peer reviewed data on the frequency of asymptomatic spread:
https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M20-2671

To break it down:

  • Severe symptoms: 6.15% transmission rate
  • Moderate symptoms: 5.58% transmission rate
  • Mild symptoms: 3.30% transmission rate
  • No symptoms: 0.33% transmission rate


So it seems like asymtomatic spread, while possible, is really not playing any meaningful role for the spread of covid. This info, in turn, ties into the debates about reopening schools, considering the fact that infected children stay asymtomatic far more often than infected adults.


We would, of course, want to see more studies like this one, so that we can be really sure about these findings before making big decisions.
