I've got a firestorm going on FB; winning so far...

For interest's sake, I thought I go through my tactics. I develop and refine my single-sentence pithy replies here. This is the ideal place because it has amazingly intelligent people who aren't afraid to call out wrongness. Most importantly, if I'm wrong, I get swatted down where no one else can see. On FB I look like a goddamn superman.
FB is just a glorified public family album. It's a honey trap for boomers that are still susceptible to old fashion advertising. Don't waste your time there.

My strategy is to get a little fame then parley that.
1) My writing
2) This forum
3) FB

I actually don’t know where to go from FB? I’ve tried YouTube multiple times, and Twitter requires Followers; I’m not famous enough for that.

There’s nowhere to go from Facebook dude. That’s the point.

So a new study out of France indicates that when taken early HCQ+AZ does indeed significantly reduce your odds of dying or having complications from the CCP virus.

Same situation; I don’t want to be entertained; I have plenty to do; I want to get famous.

Whether it works or not, unless you’re in the susceptible category, why bother?

Even though it is not as common, this disease does kill healthy young people also. Just because the odds are low of dying, the odds are still fairly high for long term lung damage. Reducing those odds are always good, as well as shortening the period of time in which you are sick, which is important when most people are sick for quite a long time with this virus.

Then there is also the political reason. The left constantly push the false narrative that HCQ does not work and is deadly. We need to call them out for pushing such lies as pushing lies harms the public health, and harms the trust people put in the leftist media.

I get the political pushback.

Don't let the "oh, but there's 2 cases of kids getting it too" bullshit. It's a bait-n-switch; conflating 2 kids in 330 million with shutting down the economy because sanctimony.
