I see you are still using nonsense arguments.
Just knowing what the infection is does not stop you from getting it, as is proven all over the World, where medical staff are still getting infected.

Your point was predicated on "probability" and you clearly do not understand what this concept means.
Drivers who obey the law can still have accidents, but that probability compared to those who do not, will be low.
Similarly, if medical and health professionals "knew exactly what they were dealing with" as you have suggested, then the probability that thousands of them would be infected is implausible: they are trained to take appropriate precautions.
It would assist you to apply sound reasoning to your comments instead of senseless opinions.
 
Very good summary of Sars v2 in this Nature review, although slightly sobering.

Funny how the Greens have been totally invisible during this period.

Who is their leader again ?

Oh yes, that Bandt chappie, haven't heard a word from him.

Not totally invisible.
They have joined with the intellectual giants the Hansonites and Barnaby to not download the app.
The Greens are just anti everything as per usual. Stuff the good of society.

South Korea has the pubs open now because everyone has the app.

Your opinions continue to ignore reason.
Why not at least attempt to justify what you state so that you might be taken seriously?

No, as others have found your endless nonsense becomes boring, most are open minded about discussion you arent.
As has been proven in other threads, as will no doubt will happen on this one, you just blindly career along making personal attacks and calling it supporting evidence.

You regularly use your opinion as the foundation of your posts.
I seldom do, and consistently reference supporting material.
I make a point of critiquing what people say, and your claim otherwise is false.
If you do not appreciate the role of critical thinking when constructing a post, it's probably best you don't make the post.

Do you take your own advice. You have offered little in the way of supporting evidence throughout. The CCP hymn sheet is hardly factual. Neither is your use of "sinophobes", which is highly amusing. I'm surprised you haven't yelled "Nazi" yet.
 
"What is the true origin of the Wuhan coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2, 2019nCoV, the CCP virus)? Many scientific publications seem to tell you that the virus was born from nature. How reliable are these publications? While, before I comment on that, I would like to bring out an important fact: all of such publications rely on a single evidence – the sequence of a bat coronavirus named RaTG13. "

You said thousands of Chinese doctors and nurses were infected and many died.
Can you give a link to that?

And other deliberate actions will result in thousands more avoidable deaths in a certain country.
They need to divert attention.

Sweden or US?

One is higher up on the list, neither have the highest total number of deaths as a %

A New York city street sweeper wears a mask to help check the spread of the influenza epidemic, October 1918. In the view of one official of the New York Health Board, it is 'Better be ridiculous, than dead'.
