No asymptomatic spread?

@jolly said in No asymptomatic spread?:
if you need another study, try this one from the proceedings of the national academy of science
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
Read what I said about the Florida study.

Beauregard, it doesn't matter how I get my information, but you're right on that when I do get my information, I'll have no truck at all with reactionary Christian organisations' websites or publications such as Lifesite News.Again, you're attacking the website, not the studies.

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.

@renauda said in No asymptomatic spread?:
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.

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.

First thing I saw, so first thing I linked. The article had a direct link to the study.

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?

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 you didn't go to the link and read the study any more than I did.
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.
