Re. communications style, no, I am choosing to reflect a shitty sentiment brought into the discussion previously.
Have tried the high roads and proper form. There often isn’t very much there.
There is no position. Only impact. Only attention. Only self-respect. There is no position.
Regarding evidence: There is no need for interpretation of the evidence on SARS-CoV-2, on transmission mechanics or the harm it is capable of causing. It’s either based on reading the literature or not.
—To expand on that: Any conclusions of COVID being harmless or like other common illnesses, or inevitable, or unstoppable always–always–require blatantly ignoring concrete and clear results based on verified physics or molecular biology.
Do you really trust the literature? I was a scientist for a few decades and I find much of biomedical literature to be ... hard to draw conclusions from. My PhD is in Biophysics and I've studied viruses in detail; I don't have the level of confidence you do in your beliefs.
I think I’m often ascribed beliefs and desires I do not have. It’s often accompanied by people reaching for “your beliefs” and “your beliefs” some more. I point to precisely what I wrote. SARS-CoV-2 is not a death machine but it is not harmless. It is not like other common respiratory illnesses. Infection is not inevitable and COVID-19 is not unstoppable as the transmission of it is by aerosol and that can be filtered out of the air.
