Study: Lockdowns are a scam, unsupported by the science | Eastern NC Now

    A new study on asymptomatic transmission of COVID not only proves it doesn't happen it proves the panic promoted by the political class was meant to control the populations

    In complete contradiction to the popular narrative used by Democrat politicians and governors across the United States, a new study of 10 million people in Wuhan, China - ground zero for the COVID virus, showed that asymptomatic spread of COVID does not occur, nullifying all reasoning for business closures and lockdowns.

    The study, published in the November issue of the peer-reviewed scientific journal Nature Communications, studied 9,899,828 residents of Wuhan, screening them between May 14, 2020 and June 1, 2020. The results provided clear evidence as to the possibility of any asymptomatic transmission of the virus.

    The study was compiled by 19 scientists from the Huazhong University of Science & Technology in Wuhan, and highly respected scientific institutions in the UK and Australia.

    Titled Post-lockdown SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening in nearly 10 million residents of Wuhan, China, the study thoroughly debunked the concept of asymptomatic transmission.

    Out of the nearly 10 million people in the study, results revealed "300 asymptomatic cases" were found. Utilizing contact tracing, of those 300, not a single case of COVID-19 were detected in any of them.

    "A total of 1,174 close contacts of the asymptomatic positive cases were traced, and they all tested negative for the COVID-19," the study concluded.

    Both the asymptomatic patients and their contacts were placed in isolation for a period of no less than two weeks and the results remained the same. "None of detected positive cases or their close contacts became symptomatic or newly confirmed with COVID-19 during the isolation period," the study found.

    This is big. What it means, in part, is that the lockdowns were unnecessary. As Hood Richardson wrote in the Beaufort Observer, a better approach would have been, and would still be, to quarantine those with Covid symptoms.

    When you consider the harm that Roy Cooper's lockdowns have caused, it becomes obvious that the "cure was much worse than the disease." Hundreds of thousands of North Carolinians have lost everything as a result of the lockdowns. Most of those were people who could least afford to lose their jobs. Thousands of small businesses have closed, forever, and life savings lost.

    Cooper, and his minions, have consistently claimed that they "followed the science." But now we see that there is no science that supports their draconian policies. Suicides have taken the lives of thousands; drug abuse has skyrocketed, and untold misery has been imposed on the hard working people of North Carolina. And that does not even include the loss of our liberties.

    Somebody ought to have to pay a high price for this colossal blunder.
