Corona Virus Lab Leak Consolodated References
Where would be the best place to link someone skeptical of the lab leak hypothesis? I've got intellectually honest and curious friends that have never heard of it being anything other than a conspiracy theory, but I'm not going to be able to ask them to watch hours of YouTube videos. Could we get a catalogue of the most compelling lab leak evidence along with the most damning breakdowns of Fauci's statements and lies.
Russia and Missiles in Eastern Europe/Russian Sacrifice/Culture
Hi Saagar and Krystal, I am a psychologist who lives in Australia, and thank you so much for your podcast. I'm a premium subscriber and gave up The Australian newspaper for you two :) The final straw was when they kept praising Biden and mostly Trump. Its Murdoch what can you expect? It keeps me sane as I have given up on mainstream media. Keep raging against the machine. However, listening to your section on Ukraine/Russia. Have one of your researchers look into the placement of missiles by the USA and its allies into Eastern Europe. Imagine if this happened in Mexico or Cuba, or Sark, and the response. Also please remember than probably over 10 million Russians died for our liberty fighting the Nazis in WW II. Russian culture may be declining but they gave us Dostoevsky, Chekhov, and Tolstoy, and vodka... Inclusion not them and us. As to Vlad well he's probably a good dictator, well liked by a large number of his population and is probably somewhat more straightforward than the Democratic party. At least what you see is what you get. Please keep doing what you do! Kind wishes, David Hills Queensland Australia. e-mail dnhills@bigpond.com
Defining "vaccinated" & "unvaccinated" for data
We constantly hear statistics comparing vaccinated and unvaccinated. Is there a point where someone that is vaccinated would get tallied as unvaccinated due to having been vaccinated beyond a set time? In other words, how long is someone considered vaccinated for the purpose of data comparison. My wife got covid a year after being fully vaccinated. I'm curious to know how her case was counted. As we now know vaccines have reduced efficacy over time, I wonder how the data will be tabulated and presented when more and more Americans were vaccinated 12+ months ago but have not been boosted. I've been unable to find this answer on the CDC site. To admit my bias, my fear is this data can be easily manipulated to support a conclusion that may not be accurate. If there is a window where a person is considered vaccinated, it seems like the data will skew toward showing unvaccinated as worse off. Thank you for the great show!
Thoughts on Syndication
Hi Krystal and Saagar; I really appreciate that you cover the topics important to many, but largely uncovered by the mass media. I recognize a number of podcasters/independent journalists who are doing the same, and I was wondering if you had given thought to joining with a group of them to leverage eachothers voices in a collaborative way that would allow you to compete better with the major networks? I would think that you would need to think carefully about how control/moderation was developed so that you wouldn't be subsumed into the corporate media; perhaps a rotation of independent media and the subscribers to make up the board? I think it would really help in getting the news out there. Best of luck to you.
Dr. Prasad interview
Thank you for the Dr. Prasad interview. I have criticism with his persistent comments regarding the vaccine lowering young individuals risk of being hospitalized. Yes, clearly that is true. But he should have dived into the actual risk that a young, healthy, unvaccinated individual would be hospitalized to begin with. I’ve had vaccinated friends ages 20-40 head to the hospital after they or their children tested positive. They thought they were going to die. Symptoms were that of a cold + the addition of fever. Not one was hospitalized… How can media, doctors, scientists, politicians, and general public approach this without being belittled as anti-vax?
