Not my point. The massive timeline disparity listed in an NPR article makes 2 points. 1) An organization that has a massive bias to the left did this article. 2) There are so many unknowns about SARS-COVID2 that any honest discussion that is saying this is our best guess is a great discussion. I find the paragraph I posted to be refreshing in its honesty. Maybe more dialog like this would lead to more people being willing to listen and rethink their position. I mean both conservative and liberal people.

OK, Bucky I misunderstood your point. DOC, I purposely did not post the link because the rest of the article was BS. Remember in the title I said an interesting paragraph. Part of what you say I agree with, part I do not. As far as the Gain Function research, I find that criminal in numerous regards. Sugar coat it any way you want, it sill is biological weapons research. We do the research with China, who will use biological weapons and is our enemy. Ivermectin does it have some value, yes, but not the most in my opinion. The horse stuff is misdirection it is also approved for humans. Personally I think we need ongoing medication study which seems to be ongoing. The Pfizer pill seems like a winner. There is reaserch going on about a Tcell vaccine, which if it will work seems like a winner.

A window of 3 months to 5 years... they are really going out on a limb there. I thought this $hit was predictable and easily followed established models.... yet this is the best estimate they can come up with? Somewhere between 90 and 1,800 days.

How about instead of faking it and flying by the seat of their pants like they've been doing for 2 years, man up and say "yeah, we really don't know shuit"

nearly 900,000 deaths in US alone...conservative, slow and calculated approaches by people who have studied pandemics, public health, and medicine seems wiser than listening to those without learned backgrounds....that'll be like trusting your auto mechanic, or a retired soccer player to fix your arthritically damaged knee...

the everyman for himself, do nothing and let nature take its course approach obviously failed where ever those responses were tried...those advocating that this is just the flu, it'll go away when the weather heats up, hydroxychloroquin is the cure have been proven wrong...

yet they still tell the folks who are trying to find the right, measured, and informed solutions that would help keep the vast populations of people as safe as possible that they are wrong, conniving and greedy and possibly malicious...some may be, but I tend to support those trying to learn and to help versus those pushing back just because
