    Dr. Scott Atlas disputes COVID-19 fear mongering tactics from our health officials
    Posted: July 2, 2020

    Updated: 3:20 PM

    KUSI Newsroom

    SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – As coronavirus cases continue to increase across the United States, health officials and Democrat politicians seem to be using that statistic to fear monger and justify closure orders.

    Dr. Scott Atlas of the Hoover Institute, discussed why we don’t need to be scared of the increase spread of coronavirus on Good Morning San Diego with KUSI’s Paul Rudy.

    Atlas said that he has done more than a superficial analysis of the numbers, and after analyzing them, he doesn’t get scared.

    Explaining, “When you look all over at the states who are seeing a lot of new cases, you have to look at who is getting infected because we should know by now, that the goal is not to eliminate all cases, that’s not rational, it’s not necessary, if we just protect the people who are going to have serious complications. We look at the cases, yes there’s a lot more cases, by the way they do not correlate in a time sense to any kind of reopening of states. If you look at the timing, that’s just a misstatement, a false narrative. The reality is they may correlate to the new protests and massive demonstrations, but it’s safe to say the majority of new cases are among younger, healthier people.”

    Furthermore, Dr. Atlas emphasized the fact that the death rates are not going up, despite the increase in cases. “And that’s what really counts, are we getting people who are really sick and dying, and we’re not, and when we look at the hospitalizations, yes, hospitals are more crowded, but that’s mainly due to the re-installation of medical care for non COVID-19 patients.”

    Dr. Atlas used Texas of an example saying, “90+% of ICU beds are occupied, but only 15% are COVID patients. 85% of the occupied beds are not COVID patients. I think we have to look at the data and be aware that it doesn’t matter if younger, healthier people get infected, I don’t know how often that has to be said, they have nearly zero risk of a problem from this. The only thing that counts are the older, more vulnerable people getting infected. And there’s no evidence that they really are.”

    Dr. Atlas then pointed out the hospitalization length of stay is about half of what it once was.

    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    Another attempt by a COVID denier to present the opinion of some obscure doctor as if it invalidates the opinions of the vast majority of the medical community, false paradigm, show us a hundred or so other doctors who support this guy’s view and it can be taken serious

    Gobbledegook. What is 'relief aid from the bottom up'? What is 'relief aid from the top down'? Where is the money to guarantee everyone's wages coming from? How much is a 'wage'?

    You don't get to speak for the majority of the medical community. You only get to speak for you.

    Science does not use consensus. Only religions and politics does that.

    Germany and several other European nations do not want Trump to be re-elected. Trump points out their violation of NATO treaty.
    The Democrats do not want Trump to be re-elected. They even 'impeached' him on charges so vague the Senate couldn't even figure out what the actual crimes were, and even violated several laws themselves to do it.

    And what have they got as a candidate? Biden: a man that likes to grab little girls by their chest on national TV and who talks about his hairy legs while the children around him are visibly edging away from the guy. A man that boasts about violating federal laws, and implicates Obama in violation of those same laws in the boast. A man that is trying to run his campaign from his basement (his Mom's basement?). A man that can't even handle softball questions by reporters chosen by the Democrats, and who is given a teleprompter to answer them, with any kind of coherency. A man that doesn't even know what town he is in. A man that bails out rioters, vandals, and arsonists...and supports them.

    Meanwhile Trump makes speech after speech about the Silent Majority, the working people that make this great nation of ours great. He points out the great accomplishments of the everyday worker. This from a man the Democrats refer to as 'self centered'.

    The choice in November is straightforward. Either vote for tyranny, rioters, looters, arsonists, CHAZ, and all those that want to see the destruction of the Constitution of United States, to be replaced with fascism by oligarchy;
    or
    Vote for liberty. Vote for the Constitution of the United States. Vote for Trump, an incredible patriot that loves this country and the great people that make it possible...the everyday worker.
    "When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."


    A lie doesn't become the truth, wrong doesn't become right, and evil doesn't become good just because it is accepted by a majority.
