Mads Mikkelsen? I'm very skeptical that this is real, and kind of disappointed that HN is being so credulous.

Not commenting on this particular case, but on the general sentiment.

Aristotle did say in Politics IV that appointing public office by lottery, drawing from the real public, is more democratic (power to the people) than elections, which is an oligarchic exercise.

how, exactly, is that relevant here?

This CDC statement provides updates to large study. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7104e1.htm

'By early October, persons who survived a previous infection had lower case rates than persons who were vaccinated alone.'

Yes - 'you were very specific about antigen testing and a doctors letter that you had recovered from covid'.

But, that's not what sterilising immunity means. The fact that previously infected individuals were infected again means that their natural infection did not provide sterilising immunity. Better immunity? That's debatable, but it's not, by any definition I've seen, sterilising immunity.

AFAIK the government is still withholding thousands of hours of possibly exculpatory video evidence. It shouldn't be possible to get any convictions under such circumstances, so it's also improper to talk about sentences.

Eh, I just looked at the submission and comment history on your brand-new 5 day old account: you're just a troll and not even a very good one at that.

Oh really? That's an extraordinary claim: care to provide any evidence? Otherwise, I call BS.

Also, they have the same information duplicated at c19study.com, c19ivermectin.com, c19early.com, and likely others. Not necessarily indicative of anything nefarious, but it sure is spammy and makes it less trustworthy IMO. Plus, I get a strong whiff of "dO yOuR oWn ReSeArCh" in all of the commentary.

From the FAQ: "Who is @CovidAnalysis? We are PhD researchers, scientists, people who hope to make a contribution, even if it is only very minor. You can find our research in journals like Science and Nature. For examples of why we can't be more specific search for "raoult death threats" or "simone gold fired". We have little interest in adding to our publication lists, being in the news, or being on TV (we have done all of these things before but feel there are more important things in life now)."

I'm sorry, but if you're not willing to put your name(s) behind your analysis, I'm going to be skeptical.

Yes she was. Because she refused to get out of her vehicle.

She was only asked to get out of the vehicle because she was self-admittedly "agitated" and began increasingly berating the officer in a way that was keeping him from finishing writing the citation.

So again, if an officer asks you to get out a vehicle, comply and ask if you're being detained. Don't grab your phone, don't tell the officer he doesn't have a reason to ask you to get out of the vehicle, after just admitting that you're agitated.

do you think the police officer's response to Ms. Bland's non-compliance in this case was reasonable? also, in your opinion, could he have de-escalated the situation before pointing a potentially lethal weapon at Ms. Bland's face? i'm really struggling trying to understand how you've arrived your thesis, which seems to be: just don't make cops mad and you (probably) won't die? that seems to me a poor standard for those entrusted with maintaining public safety. since the officer is the person with literally ALL of the power in this interaction and, ostensibly, is provided with extensive training on how to manage difficult interactions such as this, shouldn't he be held to a higher standard of accountability than Ms. Bland?
