Let’s review some of my record:
-China would be unable to contain covid
-trump minimizing the covid threat in state of the union
-first on these forums to say we have an issue, mic would be canceled, soccer shut down
-predicted lockdowns nearly a month before they happened (had a full closet of tp)
-predicted the stock market crash (though I concede I didn’t think the recovery would be as advanced)
-advised kiddos school that they’d be shut down..they were ready to go remote day 1
-said 14 days to slow spread was nonsense
-said lockdowns would be proven to be much less effective than expected unless they were hardcore Australian lockdowns.
-thought masks indoors were a good idea, thought the cloth masks would be proven to have minimal effectiveness
-thought masks outdoors and outdoor restrictions were idiotic and would be proven counter productive
-thought masks being better than vaccines was radical oversell
-though schools closed in fall/sports closed were unwarranted and were lower risk give. The cost
-thought there would be a s show of an election
-predicted a very harsh winter wave (on which dad4 and I concurred)
-predicted political violence after the election
-predicted the current inflationary pressures
-said tx Florida removal of restrictions wouldn’t lead to an increase
-said something was up in India which would turn into a more severe global wave
-predicted Asia would go through a much more severe delta wave
-predicted the office reopening in SoCal would be delayed
-warned of the vaccine mandates and coming fight
-concurred with dad 4 about the delta wave but I argued it would be here earlier than fall
the biggest thing I got wrong was in summer 2020 that there might be a threshold where T cell immunity might reduce the level of contagion (though I still think it was part of the answer in Asia with covid prime). What about Espolas record
