If I posted a poll right now "Have Aliens probed Lacius's ass" I am confident It would break 30%, doesn't make it true or that anyone thought that it actually happened.
So if asking people is pointless, why have elections? All the trump supporters are obviously trolls.
The original quote from bill was not about microchips, but rather identification dyes, specifically for people crossing the border in the event they loose their vaccine documents, so when they reach hospitals, they know what vaccines they had.
Yes we know, because dye's that identify if you've had a vaccine isn't as sexy as bill gates injecting you with microchips and turning you into a magnetic 5g cell tower.
It's like the nigerian prince scams, they make it utterly unbelievable so only the truly thick people will believe it.
But also it's physically impossible, for anyone to have a small enough microchip that's not detectable, have enough features for wireless capablity, AND also have no battery (as a battery would require surgery).
Conspiracy theorists aren't able to rationalize to that level, otherwise they wouldn't be conspiracy theorists.
I don't know why people think the government needs to inject them with a microchip secretly to know their every move.
Only for people who don't care if they are being tracked. Your car, your phone & your payment cards can all be tracked.
If you don't carry a mobile, don't drive, don't pay with a card & wear a mask then it's quite difficult for them to track you. There are ways to identify people from cctv from the way they walk, but that is not currently a mass surveillance technique.
Define "miracle cure" and "not working". A
recent observational study of ventilated COVID-19 patients indicates that hydroxychloroquine used in conjunction with azithromycin increases the survival rate by nearly 200%.
Do you have any other trials that support that, because it's been trialed in a lot of other places and there has been no similar results.
The paper wasn't written by quacks either - it's authored by researchers from Smith Center for Infectious Diseases & Urban Health and Saint Barnabas Medical Center.
By Quack do you mean someone who wouldn't go on fox news talking in April 2020 about hcq?

Ingraham's 'Medicine Cabinet' on effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine, whether diabetes increases COVID-19 risk
Drs. Ramin Oskoui, cardiologist and CEO of Foxhall cardiology, and Stephen Smith, founder of the Smith Center for Infectious Diseases and Urban Health, join Laura Ingraham on 'The Ingraham Angle.'
If the patients at St. Barnabas were better off when they were administered HCQ+AZM, I'm not going to question that - I'll wait until the results of the study are reviewed and the final version is published.
You would question it, if it wasn't already something you believed though.
Faucci is on record admitting that he personally manipulated herd immunity numbers knowing that they'll be disseminated by the media,
His initial estimate based on his scientific knowledge was wrong, as more information came out...
Dr. Fauci said that weeks ago, he had hesitated to publicly raise his estimate because many Americans seemed hesitant about vaccines, which they would need to accept almost universally in order for the country to achieve herd immunity.
That isn't manipulating people. Manipulating people is what Trump does when he tells people that covid will be gone soon, or basically anything else that Trump has ever said.
and he did so specifically to encourage or discourage certain behaviours. I quote the man himself:
Of course this is a "white lie" of sorts - ideally that number should be 100%, but that's extremely discouraging. If you keep the bar low and move the goal post incrementally, you're more likely to get people to come since you've put them in a perpetual state of "we're almost there".
Well of course 100% is ideal, what kind of imbecile thinks that by vaccinating 75% of people would be as effective as 100%?
They gave a lower figure for what they thought they could get away with in an emergency, that figure was too low and they had to raise it.
The funds weren't explicitly dedicated to gain of function research of coronaviruses, that part is correct, but money is fungible - if you fund a given institution for a specific purpose, the money that institution would've otherwise spent for the project out of their own pocket simply funds something else
By that argument, you fund sex traffickers and terrorists. Money that you spend will eventually end up there.
I know, I don't believe in the micro chip theory at all. I'm just saying they might be able to do something like that, though I doubt on such a large scale. Who knows
I don't think it's at all likely there is any kind of tech that is that small, it would not be something you could do in a small closed environment with few people & if you don't have that then it becomes a nightmare to keep quiet.
You said quite clearly that hydroxychloroquine "doesn't work" when used in COVID treatment - clearly it does, in specific cases - that's what the latest research says.
The research says quite emphatically it doesn't work, apart from magically when a right wing HCQ advocate uses it. A minute ago you were keeping an open mind, now you're saying it's clearly true. You can't have both.
if he said one thing based on polls and personal feeling rather than hard science, it makes perfect sense to treat what he says with a degree of skepticism.
There is no hard science, we'll have hard science in about ten years. Right now you'll get a best guess based on whatever peer reviewed studies they can cobble together & that is it.
It's funny how you want absolutes on things you don't believe in, but are happy with vague wishy washy statements when it's something you do.
HCQ is a drug - either it increases treatment effectiveness or it doesn't, and the answer to that question is found via scientific research, not bumbling idiots on TV.
There are numerous studies that concluded that it is not effective in any circumstance, just one magic one.
"if Trump said it at any point in time then it must be wrong". If that's the line of thinking both of you are applying on your decision-making, all the power to you, but don't simultaneously claim that what you say is based on "the science" - it's based on personal feeling, more specifically an inherent dislike of your opposition.
It makes perfect sense to treat what he says with a degree of skepticism.
We are not testing HCQ in isolation
You misunderstand, it was already tested with azithromycin back in 2020 and was found to be no better than placebo.
Whether it is an error or not remains to be seen based on peer review - the matter is being actively researched around the globe.
It has been researched since the first days of the pandemic.
Faucci is a government spokesperson - he's literally hired by the administration. He is a specialist, yes, but in his current position I expect him to be truthful and transparent. So far he only seems to be transparent when his feet are put to the fire, and if that's the case, he should be wearing shoes that are constantly engulfed in flames.
You expect the government to be truthful and transparent? Are you sure you're a republican?
He hasn't had his feet put to the fire.
200% is not probable coincidence - either it's a huge error (which should be easy to point out) or a relevant factor.
All they had to do was give HCQ to the people they thought would survive, it was an observational trial.

That they even wrote a paper on their unscientific trial, is in itself suspect. It's like a giant red flag saying "I AM TRYING TO MANIPULATE YOU".
Not disclosing to the public that the figure is actually unknown and can only be estimated based on educated guesses is a lie by omission.
All science is based on educated guesses, you're either incredibly stupid or disingenous.
Trevor Noah is a shit comedian (which is why his show is on a "summer hiatus")
What? You think he is on holiday because he is a shit comedian? I really don't get the association...
I'm not forcing you to respond - you're the one insisting on continuing the conversation. I've read the article, and the studies linked within - they're consistent with what I've read over the years, no big surprises.
You believe in the articles that back up what you think, while reserving scepticm for anything that doesn't back up your beliefs. No surprises there.
Areas affected by more crime require a stronger police presence, a stronger police presence generates more police encounters, more police encounters generate more arrests. Nothing new under the sun, nothing to do with race.
And if you have a police encounter when you're black then you're more likely to get shot.

The police choose where they work.
