I pointed out in the spring of 2020, and several times since then, that smartphone based Covid-19 tracking apps were essentially worthless and applying tech in a way that would not work well. But what do I know? I’m an idiot.

Teen Greta Thunberg, who is an activist having no expertise in public health …
Why do we accept public health institutions as politicized quackery?
R^2 = 0.25. This is not a correlation.
In case he deletes the chart
Have seen similar comments, with data, from many true experts – in immunology, viruses, infectious diseases all say the same. The vaccines work effectively against the “Delta” variant.
The other reason we see increases now is because we test so many people including those without any symptoms. We even detect weak viral fragments in the noses of those who are vaccinated – because that is exactly how vaccines and immunity work. Never before in history have we tested so many people without symptoms.
Here is a discussion of reality – click through to read entire thread:
James Turbitt, who lives in Belgium, made an emergency dash home last week after he learned his 62-year-old mother was in hospital in Perth, Western Australia.
But the only flight available was to Melbourne, on the other side of the country. So he asked authorities if he could break the mandatory 14-day quarantine in order to fly onwards to Perth to see her in hospital before she died.
He said he had already returned multiple negative tests but his request was denied.

Epidemiology remains stuck in the dark ages. These are the same policies they came up with hundreds of years ago. Literally, imprison everyone, imprison the healthy, indefinitely. This is dark ages medicine. This nonsense has to stop.
Is there anything the public health quacks’ policies can’t make worse:
Ringing in the ears has been on the rise during the pandemic. Here’s what to know if you suffer from it, and techniques to help quiet the bothersome sound.

I too have been dealing with this nightmare for the past almost 3 months, with it gradually diminishing to the point I have many good days now.
Mine may have been caused by taking ibuprofen for my knee pain (which itself is caused, in part, by public health quacks’ failed pandemic policies). About 1 in 30 people may develop tinnitus from taking NSAIDs. I will no longer take them – ever. It could also be related to past brain injuries. There is no way to know. Fortunately, mine is gradually diminishing.
Shut up peons:

A direct side effect of public health Orders that have increase anxiety, irritation, frustration and anger on board aircraft. Source: ‘It’s out of control.’ Airlines, flight attendants want stiffer penalties for unruly passengers
Public health’s unilateral Orders, which never gave a moment’s thought to side effects and consequences, or whether the benefits of the Orders exceeded the harms, have led to this. They own it.

Most reporters still do not understand that a random bit of cloth is not the same as an N95, yet to a reporter both are “generic face masks”.
The U.S. remains unprepared for a world that is now, and soon will be even more, mandating use of vaccine passports for travel.
The only “proof” available in the U.S. is an easily forge-able, unverifiable paper vaccine card.
Elsewhere nation’s have set up verifiable, authenticated vaccination passport records.
As global travel slowly re-opens to vaccinated travelers, U.S. citizens will remain at a disadvantage because of the incompetence of public health to plan ahead for this need. Public health remains AWOL on this issue.
I have documented that vaccine passports were coming, whether we like it or not, since last winter.
