    Hilarious, in a tragic, pathetic way. The "Nature" article, cited as evidence for this religious belief, ends by spilling the beans that there is no real scientific evidence to support the belief that masks are in any way mitigating the transmission of this infectious respiratory virus.
    It had been established prior to the launch of Covidmania that influenza is transmitted generally indoors, in conditions of low humidity, through aerosol particles of a <5um size. These particles cannot be controlled by any masks to a high enough degree to effectively and consistently stop transmission. The aerosols escape all around the masks, and to some degree, through the masks, with cloth masks actually producing more of these <0.5um particles than no mask at all.

    Masks won't prevent transmission of infectious respiratory viruses and the PCR tests as they are used cannot accurately and consistently identify infection. The average age of a death with a postive PCR test in my province is 81, with an average of 3.6 comorbiidties, and already frail to the point of being committed to long-term care.

    I am astounded that anyone with any curiosity about the actual data believes a word of this mass-hysteria-inducing psy-op.

    "For the smallest particles, Fig. 4a shows that up to a 92% reduction in 0.3 – 0.5 µm particle emission rate occurred while wearing surgical and KN95 masks for breathing, talking, and coughing, with the KN95 yielding a smaller decrease of 20.5% in this size range. The SL-P mask caused a 60% reduction in 0.3 – 0.5 µm particle emission for talking and breathing, but yielded a 77% increase for coughing. The least effective masks in terms of minimizing emissions of the smallest particles were the U-SL-T and U-DL-T masks, with U-SL-T substantially increasing the emission of 0.3 – 0.5 µm particles by almost 600% for speech, and the U-DL-T mask yielding very slight changes for talking and breathing and an almost 300% increase for coughing.


    Redirected expiratory airflow, involving exhaled air moving up past the nose or out the side of the mask, were not measured here but should be considered in future work."

    Droplets with a diameter of 5 microns at room temperature and 30% humidity evaporate within a few milliseconds. Repeat: millisconds = 1/1000’s of a second. Larger droplets, say 100 microns, evaporate in less than 3 seconds. Droplets of .5 microns evaporate essentially instantaneously. Evaporation releases the virus to the air as individual viral particles of about 0.1 micron diameter. Particles less than 0.3 microns behave (due to Brownian Motion) more like an ideal gas than an aerosol. There is no mask available to you (medical grade, N95 or otherwise) which can filter out this (or any similar) virus. That’s why there are no clinical studies which show that the spread of the virus is attenuated, let alone stopped by the wearing of the mask. Masks don’t work. Stop wearing them; they are bad for your health, they make you look silly and they encourage public health bureaucrats, governors, mayors, even city councils to behave like tin-pot dictators.

    Sorry Mulga, but the debate is essentially over from a scientific standpoint. 1. CO2 is a trace gas in our atmosphere, and nowhere near sufficient to present a climate threat even if Tripled. The IPCC group had to assume a vast increase in water vapor (resulting from CO2 increases) to get their results, and it has not happened. Moreover, The IPCC model has been wildly non-predictive of the actual climate changes for decades. 2. The real clincher comes from the studies of ice cores, which provide a record of temperature and CO2 spanning hundreds of millions of years. Years ago, it was found that periods of extreme warming and increase in atmospheric CO2 did in fact coincide. But when the cores were examined in greater detail, it was discovered that in ALL cases, periods of massive warming and cooling always preceeded – they did not follow – changes in atmospheric CO2. Our planet has already carried out this experiment, and the CO2 theory has failed the test. Warming is occurring; has been since the end of the Ice Age. If you want to fix this, you need to find the real culprit(s) and stop chasing shadows and discredited myths.

    ... science has demonstrated that most masks are ineffective at preventing the spread of a virus.
     
    This is an instance were the assumed omniscience of physicians can be quite tedious - and I have huge respect for Dr. Paul.

    In fact scientific opinion has switched from saying that face masks are of little use to strongly advocating them. East Asians have long believed in masks and have worn them when they have, themselves, had a cold or flu to prevent others getting sick - a good level of social responsibility which we in the west would do well to emulate.

    Now Singapore has a highly efficient bureaucracy and therefore their published COVID19 data are more reliable than most countries. 59,000 Singaporians (pop 5.9M) have been infected but only 26 have died from COVID19. If you compare UK (pop 62M) with 1.3M infections and 52,000 deaths* you have to ask "What is the difference?" It seems to me that getting an answer to this question is of vital importance, Dr Paul!

    I have seen "younger population", "less obesity", "High fish diet - i.e. vitamin D" and "genetics" as suggested reasons but there is another possible reason. Face masks do not necessarily prevent infection but they can probably reduce its severity - because the viral dosage is reduced. Singaporians are as famous for obeying rules as British are for flouting them - they wear masks almost universally and nobody complains. When they do catch the bug they get a less severe case of COVID19.

    Until this can be confirmed we'd do well to assume it is true. Also, some of these 'fashion statement' masks have large pores and are next to useless - we need to wear 'approved' masks; preferably the general issue type or even the N95s.

    *one in a hundred Singaporians have so far been infected and about one in fifty Brits - not such a huge difference in infection rate but look at the mortality difference - about a thousand times higher.


    Medical science also shows that wearing a mask for extended periods of time can cause health problems. For example, mask wearing interferes with proper breathing. Long-term mask wearing may also cause serious dental problems

    “East Asians have long believed in masks”. Masks are worn in Asia (esp. China) to protect against the dense smog produced by their intensely industrial (and coal-burning) society. They have been doing this for decades, long before the current viral outbreak. The SARS-Cov2 virus particle has a diameter of 200 nano-meters, way too small for your mask to filter. Filtering “mucus droplets” is equally futile, as the evaporation time for these ranges from a few milliseconds (5 micron droplet) to about 2.5 seconds (100 micron), after which time the viral particles they contain are released to the atmosphere as an aerosol which easily penetrates your mask. Some “Health experts” (not all!) “recommend” masks but cannot produce any scientific proof to support their recommendations. It is political opinion masquerading as science, not “scientific opinion”, which has done a sudden about-face since March of this year. The mask is a uniform, a reminder to all to remain constantly fearful and to accept the emerging Tyranny of the “New Normal”.

    The lower mortality rate in China is due to their willingness to employ off-patent treatments (e.g., Hydroxychloroquine/Azithromycin/Zinc, Vitamin D, etc.) which actually work. Nothing to do with masks.

    You have registered some of the frequently heard technical objections against mask wearing. However, a simulation by researchers at the Univ. of Illinois showed that cotton and some other common household fabrics were effective in filtering out coronavirus-size particles in expelled droplets, especially when the fabrics were layered.

    We fill the nozzle of an inhaler with distilled water mixed with 100-nanometer fluorescent particles, which mimic the coronavirus in size. When puffed, the inhaler forces the water through the nozzle and generates high-momentum droplets that we collect on a plastic dish placed vertically in front of the inhaler. We then repeat the process with the fabric we are testing over the collection dish. We measure how much water landed on the dish in both cases by counting the nanoparticles using a microscope. We can then use the ratio of the volume collected with and without the fabric to give us a measure of droplet-blocking efficiency. [...] Our work produced two key findings.

    First, most common household fabrics, such as T-shirt material, have 40% or higher droplet blocking when used as a single layer. In two layers, to our surprise, T-shirt fabric had a 98% droplet blocking efficiency – exceeding that of the medical mask, while maintaining better breathability.

    Second, most common fabrics are hydrophilic, meaning they up soak water, whereas medical masks are hydrophobic, meaning they repel water. This tells us that common household fabrics use an alternative mechanism to hold droplets by retaining them.
     

    https://news.illinois.edu/view/6367/808377

    Another study from the U of I had similar results:


    We found that most fabrics have substantial blocking efficiency (median values >70%). In particular, two layers of highly permeable fabric, such as T-shirt cloth, blocks droplets with an efficiency (>94%) similar to that of medical masks, while being approximately twice as breathable. The first layer allows about 17% of the droplet volume to transmit, but it significantly reduces their velocity. This allows the second layer to trap the transmitted droplets resulting in high blocking efficacy. Overall, our study suggests that cloth face coverings, especially with multiple layers, may help reduce droplet transmission of respiratory infections. Furthermore, face coverings made from materials such as cotton fabrics allow washing and reusing, and can help reduce the adverse environmental effects of widespread use of commercial disposable and non-biodegradable facemasks.
     
    https://experts.illinois.edu/en/publications/performance-of-fabrics-for-home-made-masks-against-the-spread-of-

    Even without considering these studies, common sense should tell one that passing air through a fabric will reduce the number of suspended particles by blocking and trapping them, directly upon impact, and also through the hydrophilic and electrostatic properties of the fibers of the fabrics themselves.

    Although SAVS-Cov-2 is indeed tiny, ~80-140 nm, it is helpful to consider the action in 3D, and realize that anything trying to pass through three layers of fine cotton has a relatively long journey with many obstacles standing in its way, as the studies show.

Der. 2ndly, it should be obvious that the 1st wave was more or less controlled by 'social isolation' and such efforts. 3rdly, it should be obvious that anywhere there is a second (third, etc.) wave, that person-to-person encounters are becoming more [and far too many more] than is 'healthy.' [Here referring to physical/virus health, not mental/libertarian health.] Lastly, it should be obvious that without effective action, almost every person on the planet will eventually get infected [surviving - or not, gaining ‘herd immunity’ - or not] OR we get a both effective and accepted vaccine.

    It should be noted that my so-termed 'mental/libertarian' faction includes persons alleging 'scam,' 'hoax' and 'deep-state conspiracy against us, we the people.'

    Finally, it should be noted that whilst waiting for ‘the end game,’ our society can only begin to recover by defeating the ‘next wave’ and the only way we know that works is by 'social isolation' and such efforts. IMHO *all* better get weaving on getting some distance, eh?

    The things you point out as “obvious” are not obvious at all. The virus may be transmitted by contact in some cases, but the lion’s share appears to be spread by airborne aerosol particles (100-200 nanometers in diameter) which accumulate in buildings which recirculate the indoor air without sufficient external ventilation. Thus the large fraction of new hospital admissions of patients who got sick while sheltering in place. They should have gone out for stroll in the sunshine instead. Masks do not impede the spread of virus. This has been shown repeatedly in clinical studies performed over decades. Trapping mucous particles is no help either, as these evaporate rapidly (a few milliseconds for the smallest, 5-10 microns to 2 seconds for the largest, about 100 microns) releasing any entrapped virus particles into the air as an aerosol, to be expelled with your next breath. There is nothing you can do to “defeat” the virus. We’ve tried various methods, lockdowns, masks, distancing, and the virus is receding, as all seasonal flus do after a few months, but is still with us. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting a different result. We have a number of highly effective treatments which vastly reduce Covid deaths (here I exclude Remdesivir, which does not work), so widespread mandatory vaccinations are NOT needed. Moreover, vaccines for CORONA viruses tend to produce deadly ‘antibody immune enhancement’ reactions and should not be used. The virus will abate when we achieve herd immunity, and not a minute sooner. So let’s get out of the house, get back to work/school, start socializing again, lose the masks, and get on with our lives.

    The 1st wave subsided because people both listened and concurred; they heard 'social distancing' and most did enough such. Whatever, but let's run the clock back a bit:

    AFAIK, Covid-19 was 1st noticed in Wuhan; they went 'full-bottle' to defeat it and did so, using total lockdown and subsequent exhaustive contact-tracing strategies.

    (Kindly note here that IMHO Covid-19 is a bio-warfare agent [*not* developed by China] but detected by them when they recognised the PRRA spike-inclusion for what it is = *BIG* trouble. Note also that only psychpaths could develop such a weapon without providing themselves with an antidote.)

    ‘The West’ ridiculed China as reacting in a ‘totalitarian’ way, so when Covid-19 showed up in the West, they obviously had to avoid being totalitarian themselves, so Covid-19 was ‘allowed’ to spread madly.

    But all along, lots of people [libertarian bolshies?] kept yelling “It's only a flu!” {My word: nurFlu} – and so the civil-disobedient libertarian bolshie nurFlus are now ignoring/contravening the sensible/serious suggestions being made by ‘the authorities’ [as in the headline article] and so we're getting ‘next waves.’

    two: Your offspring, post vaccination, will carry the patented genes, since your genes are now modified.

    three: Future generations will pay licenses with scheduled wage garnishments ("taxes and fees").

    four: the collection mechanism is in your blood stream. It is called ID2020. (Certificate Of Vaccination ID - C-O-V-ID)

    five: while you were in "lockdown" to survive "the killing zones of New York" (thanks for the laughs, Gilad), your city was being decorated with 5G stations.

    six: The debated health issues of 5G aside (which are also worth researching), you should know the reason goverments worldwide are pushing 5G:

    six-a: 5G enables real time remote control of drones; abilty for drone to transmit hi definition audio-video; ability to reduce location resolution to 0.1 Meters.

    six-b: without 5G, boston dynamics robots and flying police state drones can not work as desired. The technical subject is called "command and control (CnC)". Real-time CnC requires very low latencies. 5G and 5G+ have the required low latency.

    Here's another "coincidence" (similar to US simulating civilian airline strikes on buildings on 9/11 and UK simulating backpack bombs on buses/subways on 7/11): in October 2019, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, a John Hopkins Group and the World Economic Forum held a conference to simulate, and I quote:


    Event 201 simulates an outbreak of a novel zoonotic coronavirus transmitted from bats to pigs to people that eventually becomes efficiently transmissible from person to person, leading to a severe pandemic. The pathogen and the disease it causes are modeled largely on SARS, but it is more transmissible in the community setting by people with mild symptoms.
     
    Sound familiar? Now, what it goes on to say:

    The disease starts in pig farms in Brazil, quietly and slowly at first, but then it starts to spread more rapidly in healthcare settings. When it starts to spread efficiently from person to person in the low-income, densely packed neighborhoods of some of the megacities in South America, the epidemic explodes. It is first exported by air travel to Portugal, the United States, and China and then to many other countries. Although at first some countries are able to control it, it continues to spread and be reintroduced, and eventually no country can maintain control.

    In 1950 the labor force consisted of MEN; women who did not work (most women) were not considered “unemployed”, they were “homemakers”. Today, non-working women are counted among the unemployed labor force. So the percentage of working age MEN and WOMEN with a job in 1950 was roughly half the number you stated, and that (43%) is what should be compared to today’s 69%.

    Not significant

    You seem to be confused with basic definitions

    A stock is just a piece of paper that gives you ownership of a company, the more stocks you hold the bigger share of the profits and the more voting power you have.

    People that want to trade their stocks to each other trade them on a stock exchange.

    So you cited market capitalization, what does this term mean? Market cap is calculated by latest sale price times total shares of stock for the company.

    So if company A had 100 shares, and the bob sold alice a share of company A for $10, the total market cap would be $1000. Now if on the next day bob sold alice another share for $5, the total market cap has now crashed it is now worth $500 losing 50% value and $500 dollars worth of market cap.

    Now did anyone actually lose money? Nope in fact only $15 worth of transactions was made to tank the the market share by 50%.

    Now when you look at the biggest companies on the Shanghai stock exchange

    China Shenhua Energy Company (334.6 billion)

    Just from looking at the first 4, they are state owned companies. Which means the Government owns 51%+ over the shares and has no intention of ever putting the shares on the market.

    This is why the Shanghai stock exchange is a glorified casino, because the vast bulk of the largest companies on the exchange are state owned, in addition the majority of the companies in China are not on the exchange.

    It is the bitcoin issue all over again, very few people trading but these few people trading cause huge changes in market cap. Thus not allowing price discovery.

    If a company has a million shares and 999,999 are owned by the state and 1 share is owned by a trader. If the trader trades that 1 share whatever price he gets has no relation to how well the company is actually doing.

    Completely untrue, pre-2008 scenario had debt skyrocketing but it wasn’t translating into GDP growth

    2003-2007 saw US total debt (household, government, corporate) increase from around 6 trillion to 12 trillion. In 2017 our total debt is 13 trillion

    https://static.seekingalpha.com/uploads/2018/1/23/saupload_Screen_2BShot_2B2018-01-19_2Bat_2B12.30.13.png

    And we averaged less than 2% GDP growth during 2003-2007, When you factor in population growth and inflation. The US simply wasn’t growing

    So now what about China? Yes we see a similar run up in China, But China is growing at 6%

    So what does this mean? Both countries showed debt skyrocketing.

    So what caused the debt to skyrocket. People lending money to other people caused the debt to skyrocket.

    Now earlier I spoke about good debt vs bad debt.

    The US wrote a bunch of loans to give people to buy real estate. No surprise this did not result in GDP growth

    China on the other hand wrote a bunch of loans to give to people to start new businesses or expand their businesses

    See the difference the US was borrowing money primarily consumers so they could be real estate and other consumable goods.

    The Chinese on the other hand are borrowing money to start businesses, and these businesses are succeeding. Thus resulting in GDP growth, rising standards of living, higher wages etc…

    >diminishing resources

    If resources were diminishing, why are mined commodities still dirt cheap?

    >The Shanghai Index has dropped 20% or there abouts since the beginning of the year and the Chinese currency has been hit hard by the US tariffs.

    Irrelevant since the chinese stock market is basically a state run casino. Only a tiny fraction of china's companies are listed.

    When a us company need money they turn to the stock market.

    When a chinese company needs money they turn to the government.

    Just for comparison nasdaq has around 3300 companies, Shanghai stock exchange has around 100, 2800 companies on nyse

    >Roberts’s article brushed over the debt problem without considering it in any depth.

    No he didn't, a country needs debt to grow. Debt and credit go hand in hand. When a countries debt increases it means chinese people are lending money to each other.

    When a new business is started the founder needs to borrow money.

    Now what level of debt is healthy is up for debate, but too much debt see the 2008 housing bubble can explode and tank the economy, likewise too little debt aka nobody lending other people money is bad for the economy because this means that current businesses are not expanding and new businesses aren't being created

    China's level of debt and type of debt is healthy for a growing economy

    Of note, the most important which is household debt is extremely low

    In general borrowing money to create a new tech company is "good debt"

    Borrowing money to buy a gucci bag is not
