No asymptomatic spread?

@bachophile said in No asymptomatic spread?:
jolly direct question to you.
what do you believe, that there is no asymptomatic spread? as someone with health care experience, you have actually been quite vociferous about the potential dangers of covid, yet you post this stuff from life site news as if you actually believe it?
so what the final word, what do you personally think? is there asymptomatic spread?
if you need another study, try this one from the proceedings of the national academy of science
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7395516/
"Specifically, if 17.9% of infections are asymptomatic (5), we found that the presymptomatic stage and asymptomatic infections account for 48% and 3.4% of transmission, respectively"
that would mean 50% of transmissions come from people without symptoms.
if you ask me the same question, ill tell you what I think.
youre damn right there are asymptomatic transmissions and only a masochist or a fool would choose to act as if it was otherwise.
Did I say there was no asymptomatic spread? Even the guys at the UF study admit their data was not set up to adequately analyze asymptomatic spread, they just noted the anomaly. Furthermore, the UF study was concentrated on spread between members of the same household, not spread in the general public.
The data us interesting, though, and should be looked at.
So get your panties out of a wad, doc.

So get your panties out of a wad, doc.
while im removing my wadded panties, im also checking the JAMA meta analysis
again, you misread the point of the study.
this meta analysis (a meta analysis tries to pool data from other studies, which because of heterogeneousness, can cause problems of interpretation, but be that as it may..) of 54 studies looks at factors in specifically household transmission, as opposed to community transmission.
among the factors it notes, symptomatic transmission is more prevalent than asymptomatic transmission. well,duh....no one thinks otherwise, very long way from saying "Asymptomatic transmission of COVID-19 didn’t occur at all" as the CW headline shouts.
in other words, again i say
Thou shall not bear false witness.....
and now my panties are finally folded and put away neatly
PS the false witness is directed at the CW site of course, not you personally

@jolly the web site deserves attack
They purposely misrepresent in the name of ideological nonsense.
That’s evil

Interesting site.
It puts Reuters, the FT, and The Economist under 'least biased'. WaPo/NYT Left Center, WSJ Right Center, MSNBC Left, Fox News Right.
Seems reasonable.

Indeed I am attacking the website. However, bach has more than sufficiently excoriated the website in all its mendacities for me to add further comment.

Once again, you're attacking the website, without saying a word about the studies. Is that willful ignorance or just snobbery? The studies referenced are not religious in any way.

Whether it's ignorance or snobbery or just plain old anti-clericalism is irrelevant. I am attacking it for precisely the same reason bach laid bare its false witness of the study. Full stop.

Then you are as much of a fruitcake as anything you accuse them if being. You may not like Christianity, or you can despise the views of a website that promotes human life. But do not let your venom dissuade you from reviewing non-biased data.
That's the bottom line.

It’s easy: next time you want people to focus on the data or the underlying study, just post that study.
Unless you actually want people to read that website’s (mis)interpretation of the data, why link to that website at all? Just link straight to the data from the get go and you would not need to tell people to review the data like you do now.

There are viable vaccines now for covid
covid has lost
it's all over
it is just a matter of time to distribute the vaccine
Is it treasonous for people to still say that covid is deadly?
Or should we wait for the process run it's course?
@copper actually it’s not over.
If the vaccine rollout is not keeping pace with infections many many more people are going to die in 2021

I think the point is that the article originally posted is willfully misleading and potentially very dangerous.
Enough people have died of this awful disease already without more misinformation being spread. These so-called Christians should be ashamed of themselves.

This claim is also not difficult to debunk at all. For people who test positive but are asymptomatic - all you need to do is check the viral load in their nasal cavities.
This has been done. It’s the same viral load as people with symptoms.

What about the Chinese study published in Nature?

But you never thought to comment that the Lifesite News article was not accurately representing the findings of the study. That leads me to believe that perhaps you too didn't go to the link and read the study either.
BTW, since you were on about bottoms earlier, did you ever offer a rebuttal to what bach posted about this article?

No, I read both studies.
Did you?
Besides, I've linked Lifesite before. Yes, they have an agenda, but not anymore than other sites that are linked here. Seeing how much interest I've generated, I think I'll link them more often.
