Fact - checking BRYCE MITCHELL

Dig a little deeper with "facts" about a virus with over 99% survival rate.

https://www.who.int/news/item/13-12...ory-diseases-linked-to-seasonal-flu-each-year
"Up to 650 000 deaths annually are associated with respiratory diseases from seasonal influenza, according to new estimates by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (US-CDC), the World Health Organization and global health partners."

These number are straight from World Health Organization from previous years.

If you want to do more homework you can research all the influenza and pneumonia numbers from previous years and then research those same numbers for 2020.

Covid-19 is from the same family of Coronaviruses which is just a common cold/flu. That is why you test positive from antibody test from common cold/flu because Covid-19 is from the same family as a common cold/flu and build similar antibodies.

https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/testing/serology-overview.html
"A positive test result shows you may have antibodies from an infection with the virus that causes COVID-19. However, there is a chance that a positive result means you have antibodies from an infection with a different virus from the same family of viruses (called coronaviruses)." - From CDC website


Covid-19 is just a stronger strain of the common cold/flu that can also affect your respiratory system. The virus is much weaker now compared to when it was originally released from the lab and that is due to partial herd immunity. The healthy people getting infected weakened the virus strain over time and help stop the spread because they will have partial immunity.

That's why the recommendation for a positive test result is just a 2 week quarantine in order to be able to test negative for Covid-19. It takes 1 to 2 weeks to be cleared after a positive test result. The treatment is no different than what you would do if you had a regular cold/flu.

Remember the survival rate is over 99%, right now you are more likely to die from the vaccine than Covid-19. Last numbers that were floating around were 18% death rate, and over 80% severe sickness side effect from vaccines in clinical trials.

Its always been the flu. Always was, always will be. Millions have died from the common flu. Now they call it covid and the world freaks out. If you look at reality and its timeline. You will see.

But people just want to believe there is a real pandemic. They need that state of fear and that feeling of knowing the truth. All without knowing anything. Sad really.

Well, this is fucking dumb. Good job, buddy.

Just when you thought threads couldn’t be any more pointless..
 
I’m an overnight fan. Seeing him mount so easily and so consistently is insane. Didn’t think that was possible this day and age.

his farm is kind of a joke, but I dig the lifestyle. Grew up bucking bales and shoveling barns of over 100 head.
 
The Dunning Kruger is STRONG in this thread.
Would you like to add anything to the thread? I've linked my sources to actual scientific studies, the official CDC statements from their Covid-19 testing procedure on their official website, and World Health Organization influenza related respiratory deaths from previous years also on their official website.

I've put facts with actual science sources to back it, please feel free to do the same. I'll wait...

Bryce Mitchell nabbed the biggest win of his young career on Saturday night, a grappling-heavy victory over action-veteran Andre Fili in the evening’s co-main event. But his performance was quickly overshadowed by his desire to make a different kind of statement.

After he finished fielding questions during the UFC Vegas 12 post-fight press conference, Mitchell took some time to offer his opinion on how his home state of Arkansas was dealing with COVID-19. To say he is unhappy would be an understatement.

Mitchell had a lot to say on the subject of masks, the government, and COVID-19. Bloody Elbow broke down ‘Thugnasty’’s points from his time on the mic.

Bryce Mitchell: I was driving by an elementary school the other day and I seen all these kids outside that were trying to play on the playground… and they all got masks on.

Accuracy? - Possibly true, but not by state mandate

According to a memo from the Arkansas Department of Health, which is dated October 5, 2020:

Persons younger than 10 years of age (This requirement shall not supersede any decision by the Secretary of Education, public school district, or private school to require masks for children younger than 10 years of age while attending school); are exempt from wearing a mask.

A partial list of others who are exempt from wearing a mask, according to that same memo, are:

Persons with a medical condition or disability that prevents wearing a face covering.

Persons performing job duties where a six feet distance is not achievable, but a mask is inhibitory to the ability to safely and effectively perform the job duty.

Persons participating in athletic activities where a six feet distance is not achievable, but a mask is inhibitory to the activity or active exercise.

Persons consuming food or drink.

Persons driving alone or with passengers from the driver’s household.

Mitchell: And I see them out there, some of them (elementary school students), some of them taking their masks off so they can breathe fresh air. They can get fresh air in their lungs when they take their masks off... And that makes me sick that these kids can’t get fresh air.

Accuracy? - False

According to the Mayo Clinic:

For many years, health care providers have worn masks for extended periods of time with no adverse health reactions. The CDC recommends wearing cloth masks while in public, and this option is very breathable. There is no risk of hypoxia, which is lower oxygen levels, in healthy adults. Carbon dioxide will freely diffuse through your mask as you breathe.

Mitchell: There was no vote that said we want our kids in masks, we want to wear masks, we want our businesses shut down, we want our restaurants at half capacity, we want our gyms at half capacity and I just don’t know who [Arkansas governor Asa Hutchinson] thinks he is telling us that we have to shut down our businesses or shut our businesses to half capacity without a vote.

Accuracy? - State governments can absolutely tell you to wear a mask.

According to the American Bar Association:

Under the U.S. Constitution’s 10th Amendment and U.S. Supreme Court decisions over nearly 200 years, state governments have the primary authority to control the spread of dangerous diseases within their jurisdictions. The 10th Amendment, which gives states all powers not specifically given to the federal government, allows them the authority to take public health emergency actions, such as setting quarantines and business restrictions.

Mitchell: Make the masks optional.

Answer: Masks can’t be optional.

According to the CDC:

COVID-19 can be spread by people who do not have symptoms and do not know that they are infected. That’s why it’s important for everyone to wear masks in public settings and practice social distancing.

The mask helps prevent a person who is sick from spreading the virus to others. It helps keep respiratory droplets contained and from reaching other people.

Mitchell: If your mask works so well, why are you worried about if I’m wearing one?

Answer: You or others might be asymptomatic.

According to the University of California at San Francisco:

More recently, an Oregon seafood processing plant where workers were required to wear face masks reported an outbreak of 124 cases, 95 percent of which were asymptomatic. Similarly, in a Tyson chicken processing plant outbreak in Arkansas where workers were provided mandatory masks, 455 out of 481, or nearly 95 percent were asymptomatic.

Mitchell: Restaurants are at half capacity.

Accuracy? - Currently False

According to a memo from the Arkansas Department of Health dated September 9, 2020:

Dine-in service may continue; seating may now increase to up to 66% of total seating capacity. This includes indoor and outdoor dining areas. Seating shall be adjusted to maintain six (6) feet between occupied seats at adjacent tables.

Mitchell: In Arkansas it claims to have killed 270 people. The CDC claims 270 people died from corona.

Accuracy? - False

According to the Arkansas Department of Health, here are the numbers for the state as of November 1, 2020:

Total Cases: 113,057

Total Active Cases: 10,420

Total Deaths: 1,958

Mitchell clearly has some strong feelings about having to wear a mask while out in public. But at least from the points he raised at the UFC Vegas 12 presser, it doesn’t seem like he has many facts to back them up.

(from Bloody Elbow)

Terrible article and not a fact check.

‘masks can’t be optional’ isn’t a fact. Hate this smug shit
 
Haha you’re stupid as shit.

Dig a little deeper with "facts" about a virus with over 99% survival rate.

https://www.who.int/news/item/13-12...ory-diseases-linked-to-seasonal-flu-each-year

If you want to do more homework you can research all the influenza and pneumonia numbers from previous years and then research those same numbers for 2020.


650,000 global deaths from the flu with no lockdowns, quarantines, social distancing or masks.

1,213,224 global covid (roughly double) deaths WITH social distancing, travel bans, mask mandates, lockdowns and quarantines, and the year hasn’t even ended. What do you think happens when you compound the hospitalizations and deaths from both within a system equipped to deal with only the regular flu cases? You fucking genius lol. How many deaths would there be with no lockdowns, no masks, no quarantines, etx, just like we don’t have for the flu? Are you aware that we have a flu vaccine for vulnerable groups? I mean damn, you are a special kind of stupid.

Covid-19 is from the same family of Coronaviruses which is just a common cold/flu. That is why you test positive from antibody test from common cold/flu because Covid-19 is from the same family as a common cold/flu and build similar antibodies.

Remember the survival rate is over 99%, right now you are more likely to die from the vaccine than Covid-19. Last numbers that were floating around were 18% death rate, and over 80% severe sickness side effect from vaccines in clinical trials.

Lol man. “There is a chance” Just means that the test isn’t perfect, not that it’s useless or will give false positives 100% of the time. Think about it. If it was useless, why run it?

The same website says that the actual covid test will not be positive unless you have it, and it’s the main one used to calculate the cases anyway, so what the fuck are you talking about? Note: Other coronaviruses cannot produce a positive result on a viral test for SARS-CoV-2. Did you read your own source?

“The virus is much weaker now compared to when it was originally released from the lab and that is due to partial herd immunity. The healthy people getting infected weakened the virus strain over time and help stop the spread because they will have partial immunity.”

Is there a source, or just more made up bullshit? Because cases and deaths are trending up again.

The treatment is no different than what you would do if you had a regular cold/flu.

Except for the fact that it has a higher hospitalization rate causing hospitals to run short of ventilators, is much more contagious and has a higher death rate among vulnerable people, and we have no vaccine for it. So, oh wait, it’s not like the flu at all.


Remember the survival rate is over 99%, right now you are more likely to die from the vaccine than Covid-19. Last numbers that were floating around were 18% death rate, and over 80% severe sickness side effect from vaccines in clinical trials.

Useless to talk about survival rates without specifying age groups. No one is campaigning for young healthy people to lock themselves in their rooms forever, just to avoid being reckless and fucking up vulnerable people’s lives by wearing a damn mask and avoiding crowded spaces as not to over burden hospitals with avoidable cases. Are you aware that even 1% of the population represents hundreds of thousands or millions of potentially avoidable deaths? And are you aware that the case rate compounds exponentially and not linearly the less controls you have? And who is campaigning for the massive distribution of experimental vaccines other than Russia? And where are those numbers from anyway?

Why are Americans being Anal about masks? It's sounds extremely selfish...

OK you don't care about getting Covid, but what about the other guy who is around vulnerable people? Are you OK with transmitting it to him?

Also if the mask hinders your breathing you've got the wrong mask.
