    Governor Greg Abbott just signed an executive order and over ruled the damn Judge...No fine no jail time now. So this is going to get REAL interesting now!

    Does anyone have a lead as to where we might once again find that video? Maybe someplace other than YouTube who seems intent on keeping it unavailable?

    I’d like to forward it to some friends. It was about 52 minutes of cold, hard facts put out there by two Kern County (Bakersfield, CA, I think) doctors who absolutely showed that the mortality rate for Covid-19 is about the same as the usual strains of flu virus that we see each year - a very small percentage of the patients of those strains of flu.

    These two doctors have over 40 combined years of experience in immunology and virology and surely know what they’re talking about.

    More people need to see that video!! Thanks if you know how else to locate it. 👍

    We had a pug test positive in Chapel Hill. No word if he was self quarantining.

    This is the biggest piece of excrement to hit the fan in long long time. The weird thing about it is that almost anything is believable, and unbelievable. Say anything you want about the virus and it's consequences and someone will agree with you, and someone else will think you're an idiot, criminally negligent, morally bankrupt, and a fascist.

    Thank you both! I just watched this, and these guys have presented the most intelligent and, I believe, accurate assessment of this situation that I've seen. Everything they say fits perfectly with what I learned in college microbiology, and 25 years experience in ER and ICU nursing. The damage done by this flu-like virus pales in comparison to the damage done by our over-the-top response.

    Think about it. Back in the 90's extensive research was present in The Lancet, I believe, about children who had been brought up in homes where disinfectant was the order of the day. Their well meaning moms "protected" their kids from every possible germ, thereby raising children who were rarely exposed to normal levels of life-on-planet-earth. The resulting adults had health related complications at abnormally high rates.

    You can't hide from life. Unless you're dead, I guess.

    I agree with you. Now stop spreading this misinformation, before someone gets hurt, cuz then it would be your fault, and you'd deserve jail time, you commie! :D

    Ok, I found the original article on the 23ABC News Bakersfield site, this one shouldn't be taken down, I think.

    Accelerated Urgent Care doctors recommend lifting shelter-in-place order
