Johnnie's been delving down into the bowels of the right wing blogosphere.

Have they figured out who killed Biggie and Tupac?

It is a fascinating booklet with research from a former NY Times writer about covid.

Read it, Elkin, you will learn plenty.

The bit you linked to only covered old news that changes nothing about proper response to the pandemic.

Why would anyone waste time on the other 40 pages?

They wouldn't if, like Clown, they don't want to know the facts.

I already knew those facts you thought were so surprising, johnny. They weren't.

Why waste time spending more time on something I already know when you can't even present any information that is the least bit surprising after you read it yourself.

Or did you even read it, johnny? I doubt you did.

It is true that all the evidence is not yet in.

However, the point of what this liberal from the NY Times wrote is that there is almost no evidence that the lockdowns did any good.

But we do know that 5 and 1/2 trillion in bailouts may be spent.

johnny, read it again. Nowhere in that article does it say that there is "almost no evidence that lockdowns worked."

You're confusing your own personal opinion with Berenson's opinion. But even if it is his opinion, (which his article doesn't indicate) it is just some mystery writer's opinion. I have an equally valid opinion to the contrary and you don't care about that. So why should anyone care about his? Especially, why should YOU care about his?

For some reason you keep being amazed by the fact that liberals (unlike conservatives) have diverse opinions. This is because you can't conceive of having an opinion not spoon fed to you by your handlers. You are used to talking only with conservatives who march in lockstep with an ignorant authoritarian clown as your leader.

No, you are confusing one partial segment of the booklet with the entire thing.

Read it all.

A liberal who used to work for the NY Times wrote it, and it is a devastating critique of the idiocy of lockdowns.

Then by all means, quote Berenson to support your assertion.

There is nowhere in that article where it says there is "almost no evidence that lockdowns worked."

It isn't an article, but a small book.

And it doesn't involve citing him, but the data sources he references.

Good, then do it already, johnny.

It's pretty hilarious and that NOW you are concerned with citing the sources and not the author. Whenever I present you with an article that references sources, you only attack the author or the website carrying the story and write off the sources as "polluted" or "heavily biased" or some other nonsense.

So make your argument or don't.
If you make assertions about a source but can't back them up with quotations from your source, then we are all obliged to tell you to go fuck yourself.

You misunderstand.

The liberal scribbler for the NY Times wrote the book, not me.

Read the book -- well, actually long booklet, or short book, however one might conceptualize it.

Read his book, learn, and ponder the error of Clown's ways.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, johnny, you couldn't come up with a single quotation from the sources that said there's "almost no evidence that lockdowns worked."

We all knew that already, johnny. You've got bupkis, just as you always do for your silly purely partisan assertions.

johnny, returning just to say you've still got nothing is a waste of everyone's time.

We aren't all conservative wastrels with nothing better to do.

Maybe Johnnie can explain why COVID-19 cases are spiking in Florida and are declining in New York.

What I have to say is that a liberal who used to work for the Times wrote a short book.

It destroys the lockdown argument with actual evidence.

Read it and learn.

Maybe because in New York there's no one left to infect... :O
New York has 30K dead ...
If it wasn't for New York total Covid19 dead in the USA would be under 100K..! :O

More testing = more cases.

More cases of asymptomatic covid = progress toward herd immunity.
