Well, that's definitely a way to make sure the data only meets your meme

 A new study has data that indicates that people who have had symptomatic covid 19 and have recovered, have a really low chance of getting it again.  A clinical lab in San Dimas (home of Bill and Ted), found:

None of the 254 employees who had COVID-19 and recovered became re-infected, while four of the 739 who were fully vaccinated contracted the disease.

“The big takeaway was that if you are not vaccinated, and were not previously infected, one, you have a very high risk getting infected—24 percent of employees over a year tested positive. However, on the flip side, if you were vaccinated or previously infected your risk was near zero,” Dr. Jeffrey Klausner, clinical professor of preventive medicine and medicine at the University of Southern California’s Keck School of Medicine, told The Epoch Times.

But here’s the big takeaway from the article (I’ve bolded the text):

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has said officials are aware of evidence suggesting natural immunity among those who have been infected but has not altered its recommendations to incorporate that evidence.

“We do not comment on non-CDC authored papers. We continually evaluate the science that leads to our guidance, and if it needs to be changed, we will be base that on our own research and studies,” a spokesman told The Epoch Times in an email last month. 

So, if the CDC doesn’t choose to study it, then new information does not inform policy.  Great way to cherry pick your data to meet the political-ideology-du-jour.   I wouldn’t call that good science either…

  1. The big takeaway is if you DO get infected with this mild flu, you have a 99.7% chance of recovery.Now, enough of the childish, hysterical bullshit.

  2. That's the base of it, and from CDC's own website. But I do find it interesting that they just pick and choose what outside information to look at and ignore the ones that don't meet their agenda.
