Preach it. Though I have to say that I suspect the the deaths wrongly attributed to COVID are balanced out by deaths due to COVID but not caught. Eight Reasons to End the Lockdowns Now

Article draws the wrong conclusions from a valid question. No one complained about the lack of evidence for 20-second hand-washing. So why did we treat face masks differently?

Similar story to one already posted, but this time from the UK instead of the US. Intensive care doctors question ‘overly aggressive’ use of ventilators in coronavirus crisis

Good to see this getting major media exposure, but other then that, nothing really new. Alex Berenson has been analyzing the data on the crisis on a daily basis for weeks and has come to the conclusion that the strategy of shutting down entire sectors of the economy is based on modeling that doesn’t line up with the realities of the virus.

Three months earlier, MVA announced that 66,300 people were at risk of having their driver’s license or identification cards revoked for failure to comply with MVA demands. As Maryland ramps up enforcement, the number of suspended licenses is probably far higher now but MVA spokespersons failed to respond to repeated press inquiries seeking the latest number. Maryland police are seizing the license of any driver who they stop whose only offense was failure to hustle to show Maryland bureaucrats their birth certificate, passport, utility bills, Social Security card, or other proof of their identity.
