Ok so what to do with this thread. As a mod I could delete the posts that have been reported. They don't contain any serious insults or racist comments. They do contain misinformation and unscientific rubbish, but other members have pointed that out.
Anyone that promotes the idea that this virus is no worse than the flu, a very serious virus, is in denial. Covid-19 has killed many more people than the official numbers. Fact. Everyone needs to take it seriously and do every possible thing they can to inhibit the spread.
I am leaving those ridiculous posts up for now as the are an example of what we face in trying to bring this under control. I will discuss this with the other mods.
There's nothing . . . absolutely nothing . . . half so much worth doing as simply messing around in boats.

Conspiracy about Vaccine/Autism I think not:

So where's all the studies proving it does cause autism? The fake one by the guy who wanted to remove competition for his company's own vaccine?

Don't turn this into an anti vax discussion. The science that vaccine work and save lives is undeniable. . Move on or this thread is gone

Well done retyred in this case as ridiculous as it sounds deleting comments that aren't defamatory or offensive would be stifling free speech. Many members have rebutted some of the "ridiculous" posts without being nasty.
