Today was the first day that a bar in Columbus, Ohio opened since the start of the pandemic and hundreds of people showed up without masks, while disrespecting the 6 feet rule.

One of the big lies is about the silent shredders. When you are presenting no symptoms, even if contagious, you are extremely less likely to spread anything. Symptoms increase the vector of how they spread, as in tunny noses, sneezing, coughing. The whole 6ft rule really is about sneezing more than anything.

If they are concerned they can protect themselves. The more people that get this the quicker the better. Herd immunity is how we best this jow.

I say this as a biologist who used to work in virology. Sweden actually followed real scientific guidelines. So did Germany.

Other countries the politicians are so afraid of being blamed by the media they just are mass quarantine populations as a whole.

This strategy is not backed by any scientific research or study. Herd immunity is and what we are doing right now is not helping us get there.
