This is absolutely false. Scientific consensus is the the virus structure rules out genetic modification, and CIA have advised POTUS that it is not man made.

What they are investigating is whether there was an accidental leak from the lab, which I do not rule out as Chinese labs have accidentally leaked SARS virus twice.

Google is your friend.

I wish you knew who you are talking to. grin

I won't be doing any back and forth on this. Let other people do their own research - there are even videos of DJT saying exactly what I said.

BTW the highlighted again makes no scientific sense. Consult any virologists you know.

Edit: Hahahaha @ italicised. Hahahahaha.

Although you suggested Lassa Fever, we already know what is killing the people in Kano. It is a rare epidemic of a uniquely Nigerian pathogen called "brief illness".

I did not tell you Lassa Fever was responsible for the deaths, I said COVID-19 is not responsible for all the deaths and then suggested another epidemic that was killing people in Kano that you never read about because the mainstream media did not mention it to you.

Even now, to show your absolute doggedness toward following your conspiratory imagination, and your total disregard for scientific fact, you are now keenly following someone who wants to tell you the virus is made in a lab, despite scientific consensus agreeing that the structure of the virus makes it impossible for it to have been made in a lab.

Like O told you, read what is profitable and leave nonsense aside please.


I am not joining issues but the highlighted is not true. In fact, the POTUS after being informed by the CIA has opened an investigation on this because they believe the virus may have been engineered in a lab.

You simply typed the highlighted from your head and you are presenting it as a fact.

You are more objective than a lot of people here who like to log in to read their own wrong and unresearched opinions and pat themselves on the back.

A wise man will usually sit back and gather facts. Then present his own opinion and leave it as it is. Unwise people talk first without considering other facts, then start dishing out insults to make up for the lack of research.

gensteejay:

If what you read in my earlier comment is me being a conspiracy theorist, it shows you're being dogmatic about this issue.

You've not said anything new, bros. I have gone through the link you posted already before making my earlier comment.

Anyone can throw insults; those have no real effect. I will do my own findings and reach my conclusions based on evidence I can gather.

My current stance is anything is possible, depending on available evidence in support of any of the claims.

gensteejay:
People are just being petty unnecessarily. I clearly stated earlier that one of the major issues with the idea of mandatory vaccination is concerning data collection, citing this website, https://id2020.org/.

This is a quote from one of the proponents of vaccination from BuzzFeed:

"Dr. Georges Benjamin, the executive director of the American Public Health Association, told BuzzFeed News that he was not aware of a microchip small enough to be injected in a vaccine.

He said there are valid human rights concerns about cellphone-based or ID-card vaccine tracking."
https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/janelytvynenko/conspiracy-theorists-are-using-a-bill-gates-reddit-ama-to

Personally, I'm not against vaccination for any disease if the vaccine has no harmful preservative or component.

However, the other issue concerning data collection (and alleged tracking) is a cause for worry.

And somebody said it perfectly


"" This lockdown is also preventing sick people from going to the hospital for treatment!!
They're number of sick people in Kano who no longer have access to the hospital and I think kano state government should do something about that! People are also calling radio stations complaining that their love ones with malaria, diabetes, typhoid don't have access to drug ""

It's refreshing seeing people that can still think.

Convincing people that they have been misinformed is much more difficult than misinforming them.

I agree with your point, but football is a game where emotions rule over stats. Some players have cemented their legendary status in just few games, go through their stats and the hype doesn't make sense, go through the stats of some players and you'd be wonder why people dont talk about these players.
In a few years vvd0hype will die down, but for now let our emotions carry the day.x

He is definitely around top 3 CBs in the world today, no arguments from me. Only just showing that some people have overhyped him.

Before Pepe, Ronaldo and Mourinho, how effective was Ramos? Was he as highly rated as he was/is now?

Ramos has been at RM since 2005 right? We have seen him long enough since none of those players and coach came before 2009. If he survived RM prior to the heydays, then he was good enough long before those players/coach showed up.

Those guys dying in Kano, covid-19 tests were not run on them b4 they died/were buried so how can u be so sure about the number of deaths that were lassa fever related, typhoid related and the ones that were covid19 related?

I am not sure about what portions go to whatever disease. That was my point. Also, COVID-19 deaths are not like heart attacks. They are not instantaneous or sporadic. There is a gradual degradation process.

With the amount of tests being run daily, those figures NCDC parade about are just a tip of the iceberg.

Increasing testing capacity means nothing as long as the death rate stays the same. Testing negative for COVID-19 today does not prevent you from contracting the virus on your way back from the testing centre.

Just so u know, no one here claimed every single death in Kano was covid19 related @ the bolded.

Note: all THE deaths. Not all deaths. The 'THE' deaths shows I was referring to the numbers currently emanating from there.

What exactly do you mean by other variables change? Ramos, Pique, Vidic, Terry, Baresi, Maldini, Nesta, Cannavaro etc all played for big teams with world class team mates so why are you cynically trying to use it against him?

Any player can peak at any time but when that peak coincides with other things then those things will have to factor into that peak.

Maldini could have been average at 20 years but if he was playing for the same Milan team and coach and then at 23 became the best, the variables will not be huge co-factors of his greatness. Test this theory with Ramos.

In VVDs case, many things changed at the same time.

Are you refering to 2018 or 2014 WC? Potential 5 years isn't enough for a player to establish himself?
Missing out of 2014 world cup team, d0esn't mean a thing in 2020. Players have different peak period and length, vvd peaked late but considering his current ability, it justifies hix late peak.
And no, i don't think vvd to be the greatest, cus a thing like that doesn't exist, there can be no standard, what you like carries the day.
Vvd is a great player, no doubt, he makes defending look easy. p

VVD is not being judged by his achievements over the past 5 years is he?

It is majorly about 2018/19 and 2019/20. That is not enough sample space to justify some of the praises he gets especially when we consider that other variables changed and coincided with his own meteoric rise for e.g, he moved to a better team with better players and with a better coach.

Or he just found a system that protected him. Outside that specific coach's system he has not been outstanding. Matip used to also be a joke until he found himself in Klopps system

Or improved his game.

Let me engage you a little to see if there is any substance behind your sarcasm.

If COVID-19 is responsible for all the deaths in Kano, would that not mean that the death rate in Kano is quadruple that of Abuja and Lagos put together?

I can see the greatest defender in the world the epitome of defending who couldnt make the world cup ahead of Vlaar and Verheagh

If VVD did not make the WC squad in 2014, it only implies he cannot be the greatest defender we ever saw because it indicates that he has not been at this his current level long enough to earn that title.

I wonder why the logic is hard for people to understand.

That is what it means to be important as a player.

You are better than this.

Not every death is a COVID-19 death, means COVID-19 deaths could be included but will not account for all the deaths.

Of course I don't think anybody ever said he was the best defender we have seen that will be an exaggeration. What most of us said was that he is a very complete defender. He is strong,fast,his positioning is always top notch, he is a leader as well and rarely makes mistakes.

I agree with this.
Sports / Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 2:54am On May 02, 2020
Bill Laimbeer was the reason the Pistons walked out. But Isiah supported him. And their main reason at the time was that at 3-0 Jordan and Pippen talked disparagingly about them so they wanted to return the disrespect. I know he tried to soften things in the "Last Dance" but if you watched the ESPN 30 for 30 for the Bad Boys Pistons, you'd see that Jordan and Pippen were very disrespectful and ungraceful even when it was clear they were going to win the series.

Isiah did a stupid thing (he was known to make stupid jokes) about Magic but that was because Anthony Fauci in the 80's had misinformed the world that HIV was a "gay disease". So when Isiah was asked about Magic, he stupidly said he could not tell if Magic was a closet gay since he had contracted the gay disease. And he was laughing while at it because he was genuinely joking. He has done a sit-down interview with Magic and both former players cried about it. They were best friends.

Anyways, that is the major reason he was not in the 1992 Olympics team. He had also quarrelled with Chuck Daly. If you watched Isiah's Niasmith Hall of Fame introduction by Chuck, you can draw the inference. Chuck Daly would later say that had Isiah been 5 inches taller he would have been the greatest basketballer of all times.

Bro I understand that perfectly. Dayo goofed when he brought Vvd missing the 2014 world cup as a point to flog him with and Kimbeast told him that Even Leroy Sane and Laporte missed this previous world cup and its a useless thing to bring up but he wouldn't just listen. He brought a useless point and won't just admit it was stupid.

I know that VVD is a very very very very good defender. I feel like he is a tad overhyped sha. Nevertheless, both or all of you are making good points. I feel the answer is at the middle. I don't think he is the best defender we have ever seen and I don't agree that he is average. He is elite and I have said so before as well. That is my honest opinion.

I am not joining issues oh. But Laporte had personal disagreements with the French National coach in 2016 or so. His non-inclusion in the WC team had nothing to do with his ability.

Many people lack comprehension and will take this your statement out of context. Lately every death in Nigeria is associated with Covid-19 which I don't understand. Lassa fever has actually been ravaging Nigeria this year before Coronavirus jumped in. As at March Lassa fever has killed 162 people in 2020 along with
900 confirmed cases.

I come here to read posts of a very few people one of which includes you. I have said so before.
