The biggest bit of bullshit ever about Covid has been "The Hunt For Patient Zero"

Any time where there was a new 'breakout' of covid as the virus mutated and started appearing in a population group, the authorities went on this "Hunt For Patient Zero" to try and 'target' and 'identify' the source by which either a mutated version of the virus first was conveyed into a population or was *the* person in which the virus did mutate into a new permutation...

This became the genesis of the contact-tracing push which eventually was abandoned because by and large it did not work since people resisted being forced to use government apps to allow either automatic logging of position relative to 'identified cases' or resisted the checking-in mantra.

So what came of the "Hunt For Patient Zero"? Nothing. It was quietly dropped and replaced with the push to get everyone to get jabbed, then jabbed again, then jabbed repeatedly every 3 months. And we know what happened with that.

Tell me without telling me you don't even have a high school level understanding of how disease spreads.

@zonavar68 Umm no. That is literally how diseases have been tracked for decades minor your conspiracy theory bullshit.

Good job proving you can't even pass high school bio level understanding of immunology.

And at your age being ignorant is a choice at this point.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow For Covid it was a completely stupid and useless exercise as no Patient Zero's were ever tracked down with high accuracy and in the end it was decided to let Covid 'do its thing' which sadly the so-called vaccine drugs haven't really been very helpful for.

Remember that when Australia was fully locked down and only *vaccinated* people were allowed to travel, it was those vaccinated people who brought new variants to Australia, proving the vaccines do not work (as 'advertised') and also proving the pro-vax camp's agenda of making out that only the unvaxxed people were the vector by which Covid was spreading was simply a convenient lie.

@zonavar68 Yeah no. How do you think they tracked diseases? Read tea leaves?

And your claims about it's failure is factually wrong.

And your claims about policy is also factually wrong.

And I see you don't understand how vaccines work and just repeat random conspiracies from people who don't even have a high school level understanding of science.

When you get sick. Do you go to the doctor?

Contract tracing would've worked if it wasn't implemented 3 months too late. That's exactly how SARS-1, the virus closest to COVID's (SARS-2), was eliminated back in the early 2000s.

@zonavar68 Contact tracing done seriously and above all fast. Which means the great majority of us haven't been affected or even realized it was happening, because only a few thousand people worldwide managed to get infected before all cases were traced and the spread was ultimately stopped.

With COVID, we went through 3 months of absolute total paralisis and denialism ("it's probably just a flu, please come in to work even if you feel seek, the quarter profits are more at risk than your health!", while in China they were amassing corpses), and this before the right-wing globally decided to take the side of the pathogen to "own the libs".

@Elessar Covid is/was basically a 'flu' - that part is true. It is just a different type. I can't comment about the USA experience (except on how Trump behaved about it).

Elessar · 26-30, M

@zonavar68 No, it's a completely different virus, it has absolutely nothing to do with influenza which makes their claim even more asinine. The only virus that was similar to SARS-2 was (as the name suggests) SARS-1, which was successfully eradicated by tracing and isolating the (few) cases there were, without wasting 3+ months doing absolutely nothing or having to quarantine the entire world not to quarantine a grand total of a few hundreds/thousands people *worldwide* at the very beginning

Also even if it were similar to flu, the most deadly pandemic happened in recent times was caused by a certain influenza virus in 1918 (Spanish flu). So "just a flu" is absolutely a ridiculous statement in terms of pandemic comparisons. It's like saying "just the plague, yo".

I have solved the hunt for patient zero......it was those fraudulent tests.
