SC finds this Notable:

Is Anthony Fauci helping or hurting?

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/op-eds/is-anthony-fauci-helping-or-hurting

 

Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, recently said, โ€œItโ€™s inconvenient from a societal standpoint, from an economic standpoint to go through this." It is interesting sometimes that a brief comment can reveal the heart and mind โ€” and in this instance, a special degree of tone deafness.

Two weeks ago, at least 3.3 million people filed for unemployment benefits. Last week, 6.8 million more joined the ranks of the unemployed. On Thursday, an additional 6.6 million workers were added to the rolls of the unemployed.

For Fauci, is it merely a societal or economic inconvenience that about 17 million workers are unemployed because of the governmentโ€™s response to the coronavirus pandemic, with many more to come in the weeks and months ahead? The economic calamity lies largely with the origination of policies resulting from Fauci's recommendations.

Fauci has admitted that the models he relies on are unreliable. The models, and their panic-inducing projections, have seemingly been revised down every couple of days. Fauci insists this because of his policy prescriptions, but time and data from the United States and other nations will reveal whether that is true.

We have heard Fauci say the economic cost and societal impacts of his policies were not considered when he devised his epidemic response plan. But the question is whether the medicine he prescribed will prove to be more harmful than the disease in the long term.

Many businesses have been shuttered forever. It will be almost impossible for countless other small businesses to reopen once the government gives the all-clear for the economy to restart.

It is tragic that thousands of people in the country have died or may yet succumb to the novel coronavirus, COVID-19. But we also must remember that millions of people have had their lives and livelihoods permanently altered because of the government response to this virus. While our government may make promises and help make things better once the hysteria subsides, there is nothing our leaders will be able to do to make everything completely right again.

Fauci is a respected healthcare professional, who has contributed a great deal to his country. But he can no longer be one of the primary voices in this crisis, especially not after his assertion that the economic effects and devastation from this shutdown are merely inconvenient.

Fauci and his team have not always had a clear pathway to assess this epidemic. Back in January, Fauci downplayed the risk of the coronavirus to the public. A study, which may have been the catalyst for many of the draconian lockdown policies in the U.S. and the United Kingdom, that predicted the deaths of over 2 million Americans and 510,000 from the U.K., was recently revised to predict just 20,000 fatalities in the U.K.

Thatโ€™s not a trivial revision โ€” that study affected the lives and livelihoods of millions, if not billions, of people around the world.

It first blush this should be good info. But your repeatedly posting the link without telling us what it is, making us go find out, smell shilly. Stop it.

Embed one of the trailers, explain the gist of the video, and include a link to the full vid.

The short short version: when you put a magnetic field and an electric current through a conductive material or fluid (ie: sea water) it will create a physical force perpendicular to both. This can in theory (and in practice, according to Hollywood science) be used to propel a submarine without the noise usually created by rotating propellers.
