‘Covid-19 doesn’t infect during business hours?’ Britain's planned bar & pub curfew mocked online

22 Sep, 2020 07:08

People have argued online that forcing UK drinking establishments to close by 10pm would be ineffective against the coronavirus. The government is expected to propose new restrictions amid a surge in Covid-19 cases.

Pubs, bars and restaurants in England will be forced to close their doors by 10pm starting from Thursday, UK media reported. Prime Minister Boris Johnson is expected to announce the new rule in parliament on Tuesday evening, along with other additional measures to fight Covid-19.

Britain's coronavirus alert level was recently upgraded from three to four (out of five), with medical officials warning that the cases are "rising rapidly and probably exponentially."

However, the idea of making pubs close early was met with disbelief and ridicule online.

"Can someone please explain to me the logic of the 10pm curfew: is there a higher rate of infection after 9.59?" one person wrote on Twitter.

"So COVID-19 doesn't infect during business hours?" another skeptical commenter wondered.

People argued on social media that the curfew would be useless because patrons would either "get drunk faster before the pubs close," or go out earlier and buy more drinks to "compensate for the reduced hours."…

GOP Set to Release Dubious Biden Report

09/21/2020

After a lot of political theater about the great Ukraine conspiracy theory, the conclusions of Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis) are less than earth shattering.

The GOP report, which is set to be released this week, is expected to argue that Hunter Biden’s work impacted Obama-era Ukraine policy and created a conflict of interest given then-Vice President Joe Biden’s work in the area.

No evidence has indicated criminal wrongdoing by the Bidens. A narrative, seized on by President Trump, that Biden worked to oust Ukrainian Prosecutor Viktor Shokin to protect his son has been widely discredited, though Hunter Biden has said joining the board was “poor judgement.”

Lies, Damned Lies, & UK Health Statistics: The Deadly Danger Of False Positives

Tue, 09/22/2020 - 05:00

I never expected to be writing something like this. I am an ordinary person, recently semi-retired from a career in the pharmaceutical industry and biotech, where I spent over 30 years trying to solve problems of disease understanding and seek new treatments for allergic and inflammatory disorders of lung and skin. I’ve always been interested in problem solving, so when anything biological comes along, my attention is drawn to it. Come 2020, came SARS-CoV-2. I’ve written about the pandemic as objectively as I could. The scientific method never leaves a person who trained and worked as a professional scientist. Please do read that piece. My co-authors & I will submit it to the normal rigours of peer review, but that process is slow and many pieces of new science this year have come to attention through pre-print servers and other less conventional outlets…

Two of the three most populous counties surrounding Nashville have now lifted their mask mandates.

None of those three closed bars for months or limited restaurants to 25% capacity.

Yet all four counties followed exactly the same epidemic curve. twitter.com/NC5/status/130…

Boston prof, who got $10mn for anti-racism research from Twitter’s Dorsey, catches flak after saying term ‘not racist’ is RACIST

09/22/2020

“We should eliminate the term ‘not racist’ from the human vocabulary,” Kendi tweeted on Sunday. “We are either being racist or antiracist. Is that clear for you? There is no such thing as ‘not racist.’”

BREAKING: The Chief of Staff for Obama’s Former AG Eric Holder Met With Sally Yates the Day After General Flynn Was Set Up in the White House

September 21, 2020 at 7:25pm

President Obama’s first Attorney General, Eric Holder, left a corrupt life in public office and returned to the law firm Covington but he may not have left his corrupt work behind. Today we have more information connecting Holder to the the Russia Collusion hoax.

We noted in April, 2020 that while at Covington, lawyers from Holder’s firm represented General Mike Flynn and requested dirt on President Trump while withholding important information from General Flynn.

After working for President Obama for six years, Attorney General Eric Holder returned to the law firm where he had previously worked, Covington, where he became a partner in 2015.

Many, including the Heritage Foundation in 2014, identified how corrupt Holder was as AG [emphasis added]:

… the American people recognize that Mr. Holder is an ideologue who considers himself part of Mr. Obama’s political team first and the attorney general a very distant second. His first loyalty has been to helping the president break, bend, ignore or fail to enforce the law, doing untold damage to our constitutional system and the rule of law.

As former Justice Department prosecutor Andy McCarthy has said, the Justice Department under Mr. Holder has become “a sort of full-employment program for progressive activists, race-obsessed bean counters and lawyers who volunteered their services during the Bush years to help al Qaeda operatives file lawsuits against the United States.”

There is no way to know how long it will take to repair the damage that Mr. Holder has done to the management and operation of the Justice Department. One thing we do know for sure — it will take a great deal of work by a new attorney general who is willing to take on the activists that Mr. Holder will leave embedded within the career civil service ranks of the department. And it will take political willpower and steadfastness of a kind that is rarely seen in Washington….
