You would like us to believe that anything that can be read, at least if you present it, is to be believed. But you believe Alex Jones, and reprint idiocy regularly, so, no, sorry.

You should know better than to buy into this. Too much evidence and discussion has been around to take it seriously. If there are some tests that fail in such a systematic way, they will be weeded out fairly quickly. Plenty of checking has taken place with results that really match the experience, and this confounding by the common cold is not a feature of the good tests.

I know of a counterexample from direct knowledge. One source, taken down from its platform for stupidity, does not make this so.

And I am supposed to take your word for this? It might be interesting to go back and copy in some of the really stupid stuff you have posted about this epidemic just to make it clear why I am not going to take your word. But life is short, and it will make no difference to your understanding, so, no.

I now know people (friends of friends, but not just CNN ciphers) who have died of the virus. I am not going to listen to someone calling it fake. The numbers have bounced around a bit as counting methodologies have changed. But the obvious interpretation, that most policy people are acting in good faith but there are judgement calls involved, matches up well with the actuality of filled hospital wards, exhausted doctors, resurgence when caution slackens, and hot spots whose explanation makes complete sense.

The droplets on which the virus is carried are much larger. There are actual tests now, like the one that got Trump so excited about disinfectant, that show masks make a significant difference in transmission (as does distance). Get over your paranoia, the doctors are not out to fool anybody. They are doing their best, we can do our best, and I intend to do my best.
