Oh boy. My ears are bleeding.
A good example of why the concept of absolute free speech is overrated. Same goes for democracy. Half the population is below average in intelligence, yet we assume they will make sound decisions. I am sure that there are people who will see this video, and act as if it is reliable information. Such behaviour can sometimes end tragically.

The Sun emits radio frequencies all the way to 20ghz and has been doing so for most of its life.
So that's why it's called "Corona" virus!

Just kidding.

Apparently he's not actually an ex-Vodafone employee either.
Now there is a surprise - NOT.

Just add in plain old liar into the mix. Maybe the part about not baring false witness does not apply to his version eh?

I stopped listening at the 4minuite mark, weapons grade BS. The Sun emits radio frequencies all the way to 20ghz and has been doing so for most of its life.
i would think that the Sun is pushing stuff out in the Terahertz range too. I wonder what a good strong Terahertz frequency would do to a tin foil hat?

If it is, we won't get any of it as extremely short wave frequencies get attenuated quite sharply by the atmosphere.

However lightning is also a source of powerful radio frequencies, A single bolt can be detected 10,000Km away.

The Darwin Awards will have many winners with this virus.

And if all the COV-IDiots attend the ceremony, they'll be even fewer left!

Anyone want to set up a joint convention between the COVID-partiers, anti-vaxxers, and flat earthers?

I suspect they will have many awards granted posthumously.

You forgot to include misogynistic Incels. personally, I don't think that amount of crazy should be allowed in any one building.

Can’t see the BBC rerunning this one any time soon

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivors_(2008_TV_series)
It’s great book but unfortunately we can’t change pH or o2 concentration to push virus out from Earth
Will be very nice if we can
I look all data with any open publication for analysis
What make individual survival or make easy react to covid 19
What common sense

Why the fascination with slug bait? (That's the only thing Corona Beer is good for - killing slugs) Even though the slugs in my yard require a bit higher class beer.

Good luck if you think you will manage to make them leave their basements.

I think their (now thankfully nuked) subreddit was the most concentrated source of vitriol I've ever read. Stupid vitriol at that, the lack of logic physically hurt my brain.

Well there is a shortage of disinfectant...

Personally I've given up beer lately: we're stuck at home and it's MINUS THREE °C (thanks, climate change), so no meaningful exercise, which means lower caloric intake. We make do with the stock of Spanish wine I brought last time I went home
