Remember when people said mobile phone aerials could give you cancer?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
They don't, but mobile phones companies (and just about everyone else) are pulling off a Phoebus cartel thing. Would you agree?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nothing lasts these days as the tech constantly advances.

Anyway, some conspiracy theories may turn out true, but conspiracy theorists don't help themselves with some of the nonsense they come out with.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The ones he listed above weren’t conspiracy theories though.

To the best of my knowledge, they were all conspiracies details of which emerged after the fact. They weren’t uncovered as a result of or even subsequent to the circulation of related conspiracy theories.

Speaking of debating respectfully, mancini, one important tenet of this is responding when factual counter-arguments are pointed out. The other day someone stated it was a disgrace that less than 1% of NHS front line workers had been tested for the virus while also lacking PPE. You misread this, said "see, this shows how well it's going - with such a low figure infected". When it was pointed out that the figure was number of tests, not infections, you did a runner rather than acknowledging the error and integrating this information into your view. And so you were able to proceed with your cheerleading for your political tribe and complaining that closed minded lefties refuse to debate properly.

It's this selective openness to information that enables scientifically impossible conspiracy theories to spread. And let's be clear about the impact. At a time when properly understanding how the virus spreads is crucial to getting people to behave in a way that reduces its spread, misinformation is likely to kill people.

The lesson we in The West are learning too late is this; Total Lockdown early doors, and test, test and test some more.

You just hate China, clearly. But they did it. So did Taiwan, Singapore, South Korea and Japan.

Italy, Iran and Spain didn't. The UK went even further against this model and decided that herd immunity would be the best way to tackle this.

Just... Bizarre. <shakes-head>

2k frontline NHS staff tested to date. Out of a workforce of over 1.2 million.

That's not bizarre - its downright incompetent.

After ten years of austerity the NHS, bled dry, is now having bail out Johnson and Cummings.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
2k infected out of 1.2m is 0.17%. You think this is bad?
Also, what has austerity got to do with covid-19?
You corbynistas would stop at nothing to politicise even a worldwide pandemic. Sad.

About 3 years ago, most hospital testing labs were mothballed and the staff either redeployed or sacked.

They were replaced by regional hubs - My local one serves about 7m people.

Despite Government bluster, this was purely a cost cutting exercise and the slow rate of testing is the price we're now paying.

5g cannot cause pneumonia. At that wavelength, it is not possible to cause pneumonia. High doses of radiation used in radiotherapy can cause radiation pneumonitis but the doses are excessively more and the appearance radiographically is completely different.

Covid induced pneumonia looks like a typical pneumonia and that’s bilateral pneumonia, typically peripheral and around the bases prior to it becoming widespread.

But the theory is nonsense.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wait a minute. So these wave things can actually cause pneumonia depending on the wavelength? I didn't know this, and I can't fathom how that is possible but there you go.

Someone asked for conspiracy theories that became true but I fell asleep. Off the top of my head

-Tuskegee syphillis experiment turned out to be true.
-The Phoebus Cartel was real of course. Instead of being eradicated, the practice has become the born and mainstream.
-Watergate scandal
-Project sunshine
-The Bad booze conspiracy of the prohibition age (10,000 folk died)


There must be millions of them throughout history.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think you are having difficulty differentiating between ‘conspiracies’ and ‘conspiracy theories’.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How so?

Radiotherapy uses ionized radio waves though doesnt it? 5g doesn't.

Ionized radio waves can cause many things in a human body. For example the radiation from Chernobyl is ionized radiation.

Yeah, but in my mind I imagine its stuff like blisters, cancers and mutations in children and babies etc. Not a highly contagious airborne virus driven disease?

I was referring to the number of those infected. Also, I probably did not see the response to my reply.

Because you have listed conspiracies, and not conspiracy theories.

Again, to the best of my knowledge, none of those conspiracies served to prove directly-related, existing conspiracy theories correct.

I answered a query about known facts that started out as conspiracy theories. Nothing to do with proving directly related blah blah blah what you said.

Stop being a massive diick.

I said 2K tested, not infected.

Abdyou knew that before you even posted, you 2@.

No he posted MY comment and changed 2K tested to 2K infected.

I suspect deliberately.
