Data sources
This is a list of some of the main data sources we use: Please visit the Our World in Data for individual country data. https://www.worldomethttps://ourworldindata.org/covid-casesers.info/coronavirus/ Probably the best source of the latest COVID-19 statistics https://medium.com/@tomaspueyo/coronavirus-the-hammer-and-the-dance-be9337092b56 Tomas Pueyo has written a number of very good summaries of the strategies to overcome coronavirus https://www.capitaleconomics.com/the-economic-effects-of-the-coronavirus/ Good source of fast-moving China economic stats. https://bnonews.com/index.php/2020/02/the-latest-coronavirus-cases/ If you want to be bombarded with every breaking news story, this is the place https://ncov.dxy.cn/ncovh5/view/pneumonia Faster than worldometers for Chinese data, but slower on rest of the world data. I don’t think China cases matter anymore. https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/situation-reports I’m less enamoured of the WHO data now than I was at the start of the crisis. They are providing less information now than they were at the start of the crisis, and it sometimes contradicts country-level data. https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6 The prettiest pictures, but one of the slower sites to update. I don’t find the charts that useful. https://www.youtube.com/user/MEDCRAMvideos has a daily youtube wrap-up https://www.youtube.com/user/ChrisMartensondotcom has a daily youtube wrap-up https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/covid-19/surveillance/weekly-surveillance-report https://covidtracking.com/data/download/national-history.csv https://ourworldindata.org/covid-vaccinations

Children have a higher chance of death by jumping castle than COVID.
3 doses means 50% more profit at least, and I’m sure the kids version is much more expensive as well, because its for kids.
Its like when I take my cat to the vet and all the cat medicine is incredibly expensive because cats are tricky to develop medicines for, apparently. Same goes for kids I guess.
Be wary of what you inhale into your respiratory tract this Christmas… celebrate outdoors if you can. Wear a mask and maybe avert the inadvertent death of an elderly relative.
finally, as we round out the 2 year anniversary, pay thanks once again to the lab clowns at WIV and Eco Health Alliance for their wonderful ground-breaking research (https://thebulletin.org/2021/05/the-origin-of-covid-did-people-or-nature-open-pandoras-box-at-wuhan/)
paragraph of note: “On December 9, 2019, before the outbreak of the pandemic became generally known, Daszak gave an interview (https://youtu.be/IdYDL_RK–w) in which he talked in glowing terms of how researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology had been reprogramming the spike protein and generating chimeric coronaviruses capable of infecting humanized mice.”

WTF has that got to do with Eco H. A. and WIV ? rubbish link.
lol, WTF indeed..
Did you notice that I replied to M? Do you realise that the content of my reply to M is directly relevant to M’s link?
Knowing these facts, do you have a different response to me?
Ginger your link is irrelevant – it ‘fact checks’ (i.e. it’s opinion dressed up as authority) a claim made nowhere in the link I provided. It’s garbage.
No M, it’s relevant – it fact checks your conspiratorial tweet and addresses some of the particular claims and skewers the whole thing. But anyway, which particular bit(s) of your tweet are you wanting to put forward in your argument?
btw, I don’t mind you interspersing into my reply to bendy but I still await the response from bendy even if there is little chance of that occurring.
Anyone who watches the video I linked and then reads the article you linked will see that it is deconstructing an argument that is not made in the video I linked. It’s not relevant and attempting to change the subject with ‘But anyway…’ doesn’t work here.
On the subject of so-called ‘fact-checking’:
Open letter from The BMJ to Mark Zuckerberg – Covid-19: Researcher blows the whistle on data integrity issues in Pfizer’s vaccine trial
But exactly what claims from the tweet/video are you putting forward?
I’ve put forward a tweet with a video showing Fauci and Bright talking about pushing novel vaccine technology and short-circuiting clinical trials only months prior to the pandemic. You, bothered by this, have first tried to misrepresent what my link showed with a dubious ‘fact-check’ and then tried to change the subject when called on it. Hooroo.
Despite the hooroo:
– thanks, I have your claims – pushing novel vaccine technology and short-circuiting clinical trials.
– are you interested in my fact-check results?

UK has seen 16 people in ICU per 1 million pop. On AU terms that’s 400 people in ICU in a system with 2000 beds. The fact there is nearly 100% utilization of those 2000 beds is the real crisis, not that there is now going to be 2400 people needing treatment.
It was a system built to fail with zero tolerance for load. Voters put governments into power who allowed this with Victoria being the worst offender on per capita health spending.
Certainly a travesty. LNP has systematically dismantled public health and nobody is taking them to task on it.
Public hospitals are a state government responsibility. Plenty of Labor leaders responsible for the shortage across the states.
Washington consensus since Keating … duh …
@LH – Who funds the states?
On one hand they say that Omicron evades all prior immunity caused from prior infections and vaccinations.
On the other hand they say that Omicron appears mild due to prior infections and/or vaccinations.
One of these is most certainly false. Which one?
And there is a similar problem with our COVID experts saying that we should all take more doses of the original vaccines which Omicron can evade, to be protected from Omicron.
I can only assume they mean if we put enough of the magic juice into us often enough, then it may have some small effect on the virus which is basically mild to begin with.
Meanwhile, official word is new specific Omicron vaccines are not required, even while vaccine companies are off creating Omicron specific vaccines, which will take 12 months to be available, including a whole 2 months of exhaustive clinical trials.
But does anyone else realise that in 12 months Omicron will be long gone, and we will likely have an even milder variant that our glorious leaders will need to whip everyone up into a frenzy about so we all take the new Omicron vaccines that will require 3 doses off the bat, and then 3-monthly boosters after that?
Something surely is not adding up.
>On one hand they say that Omicron evades all prior immunity caused from prior infections and vaccinations.
>On the other hand they say that Omicron appears mild due to prior infections and/or vaccinations.
The theory is that for Omicron the antibodies that have been developed from previous infections or vaccinations don’t work very well against the new virus as it has a slightly different shape. The cannot directly lock on to the virus and disable it.
You have a second layer of immunity in your Tcells which can also recognise the virus, if they have seen something similar before. The Tcells then instruct the Bcells to make new antibodies that work directly against the changed virus, this takes time so you typically get a mild illness. There may also been second type of Tcells called killer Tcells that kill the the virus infected cells in your body.
