But over 1,000 cases on one ship tells you all you need to know about covid at sea. No rocket surgery required. And while other organizations might, the Navy didn't over-inflate the number, no motive for that.
Your science is a joke. It’s your religion, and it’s making a few people very rich. A 1000 people didn’t test positive because the tests are flawed. Every covid test is flawed. They have the equivalent of spinning a wheel and getting either a yes or a no. Same with the PCR. Fraud.

Similar to Nursing Home “ships”. In NY when COVID patents were released from hospitals, nursing homes were required to take them. COVID deaths went roaring through the facilities, with a continuous stream of bodies to the morgue.

Reminds me of my classroom in elementary school. One child in my class was sent home with the measles. Within a couple of days most of us, including me, came down with it.

In the population at large, deaths were overstated due to financial (and possibly political) incentives. The NY nursing home deaths were understated by 50%.

Close proximity, without rigorous sanitary standards, causes most any bug to run rampant, colds, flu, etc.

My religion is sex, beer, and rock n' roll. Everything else just enables that, sometimes science helps.

Just using science as a crutch for the others, when convenient?

I did it just long enough to go blind on those lonely nights in my hotel room, drank to kill my brain cells, and become deaf from listening to the Stones.

The vaccine, if it provides enough partial immunity, could allow the original SARS, MERS, or similar to circulate. Actually, I expect that to happen.

Do you realize that they just cured the common cold? Not saying COVID-19 is the common cold. The mRNA vaccine technology is key.

I still think it is beyond idiocy to MANDATE we inoculate a population with a vaccine that has been approved under an emergency use authorization (not tested on kids, pregnant women, women who want to be pregnant, the very aged, the infirm, the immunosuppressed, etc.) to :"protect" against a virus that, by the time all is said and done, will likely have moved through 70% of the population and, if left unchecked, is not more dangerous to the under 50 crowd then the flu.

Idiocy.
