    Common (and not-so-common) Failed Covid-19 Conspiracy Hypotheses

    Dan Broadbent December 2, 2020, 4:24 pm 1 Comment

    (I would love to see us move away from calling them "conspiracy theories" because they are in fact *not* theories. They're failed hypotheses.)

    — Dan Broadbent (@aSciEnthusiast) December 2, 2020

    With so much misinformation and outright falsehoods about Covid-19 running rampant, I thought it would be worthwhile to create a sort of go-to guide for engaging your friends, family, and random people on the internet who are spreading failed Covid-19 conspiracy hypotheses. As an aside, I also encourage you to stop referring to them as […] More

    Covid-19 bars packed, without masks, during pandemic

    Perhaps we deserve this pandemic after all. The South Florida Sun Sentinel reports that bars in Florida were packed over the weekend, Covid-19 pandemic be damned.

    How soon will we have to ration hospital care for Covid-19 patients?

    Dan Broadbent October 30, 2020, 11:52 am 1 Comment

    (This originally appeared as a Facebook post I made, then a Twitter thread, but I decided to copy it here with some slight edits to make it easier to share and include some references.) Indiana not only had (another) record for daily new Covid-19 cases yesterday, but we also have a record amount of people hospitalized. […] More

    Church leader who blamed COVID-19 on same-sex marriage gets sick with COVID-19

    Dan Broadbent September 9, 2020, 3:48 pm

    A Ukrainian church leader who said that the COVID-19 pandemic is a result of the “sinfulness of humanity”, including same-sex marriage, has since contracted the virus himself. I can only assume that he’s been doing a lot of really fun gay stuff. As Daniel Villarreal wrote for NBC News: Patriarch Filaret, 91, who leads the large […] More

    Seirian Sumner August 31, 2020, 4:11 pm

    The sausages are sizzling, the burgers browned, and the beer is cold. You’re all set for the perfect end-of-summer BBQ. Alfresco dining, drinks in a garden of a country pub, ice-creams – we grasp at the last shreds of summer, precious times with loved ones before an uncertain winter of local lockdowns and Zoom.

    Armed protesters without PPE storm Michigan’s Capitol building

    Dan Broadbent April 30, 2020, 7:49 pm

    Science denial is literally getting people sick and killed. https://t.co/7kmC4sismP

    — Dan Broadbent (@aSciEnthusiast) April 30, 2020

    Yet again, a bunch of idiots are protesting Michigan’s stay-at-home order by showing up and yelling at politicians who are listening to scientists and public health officials. The theme of the protest appears to be “I don’t know,” as one of the speakers asks the seemingly rhetorical question “how did they get 6 feet?”, only […] More
