A few stories on the ongoing virus mania including China's COVID surge, a possible non-tripledemic, and problems with junk science and scientific reporting.
I wasn’t listening closely until I heard “died suddenly”, although he was wearing his number, I imagine more players would have worn the number if he had been a teammate...
Someone in CINO Twitter had a good burn on the interference study, essentially pointing out that we are in the middle of a refutation of it (even if it isn’t a big emergency)
Yeah, I thought it was a very interesting concept but it doesn't gain much traction when digging a little deeper. It's far too simplistic an explanation to just state that interferons are stopping other viruses because viruses activate and respond differently from one another. There's also the fact that we have years of viral evidence that suggest it's not that simple. It would be interesting to see it applied to some argument for delayed outbreak of COVID if one were to argue that a possible bad 2019 flu season was the flu that offset COVID for a few months, but again I find the explanation to be too simplistic and is almost a retrospective analysis.
traffic accidents logically might have increased, since people are dying in their sleep or collapsing on live tv, so they might as well collapse while driving.
what the wrongdoers would do?
same thing as always, blame the other side ... same as though shoveling snow, or sleeping under the sun articles justifying increases on microcarditis and pericarditis ... ehhh, pay no attention. they will continue with their schemes ... uncurables ...
To that effect, the study isn't inherently arguing that traffic accidents are on the incline, but that vaccination are somehow associated with reckless behavior, and therefore those who get into more accidents are more reckless and would therefore get into more accidents. On that, the researchers are conflating cause and effect relationships.
There's far too many issues with the study that we don't need to speculate on how the deaths are caused, but that the deaths and hospitalizations are being seriously misattributed because of bad science.
Watching Jackson State v. NC Central...
...one player is wearing the number of another who died of “died suddenly”
Said without any irony...
Interesting. Was it a teammate then that he was representing?
I wasn’t listening closely until I heard “died suddenly”, although he was wearing his number, I imagine more players would have worn the number if he had been a teammate...
Interesting, so it was likely some other player? I will say though, I'm curious how this "Died Suddenly" stuff will take off in the coming weeks...

I enjoyed reading this. It reminds me that I need to be responsible for my own reasonable, well constructed thoughts.
