=== Covid's Lesser Evil (13:04) ===

[00:00:03]  After testing thousands of people for COVID-19, Dr. Dan Erickson, co-owner of Accelerated Urgent Care in Bakersfield, California, held a news conference to release their data, compare it to the CDC's data, and deliver a powerful message.
[00:00:21]  COVID-19 is more present and less fatal than we were told.
[00:00:25]  The numbers say that it is less of a danger than influenza.
[00:00:29]  And the shelter-in-place order is causing far more damage than good.
[00:00:33]  Their information is based on science, and the message is chilling.
[00:00:38]  You can see the full video at banned.video, but here is the gist of it.
[00:00:43]  Does this make sense?
[00:00:44]  Are we following the science?
[00:00:46]  We keep hearing following the science.
[00:00:51]  What is science essentially?
[00:00:52]  It's the study of the natural world through experiment, through observation.
[00:00:57]  So that's what we're doing.
[00:00:58]  We're studying the disease around us.
[00:01:00]  We're making observations.
[00:01:01]  We're doing testing experiments to figure out exactly what's going on.
[00:01:06]  And so this has caused some severe disruption for Accelerated as we have people coming in 7 in the morning till midnight.
[00:01:14]  We're reporting to the health department.
[00:01:16]  We're calling patients back.
[00:01:18]  And at the same time, our volumes have dropped significantly.
[00:01:22]  The hospitals, their ICUs are empty, essentially, and they're shutting down floors.
[00:01:29]  They're furloughing patients.
[00:01:30]  They're furloughing doctors.
[00:01:32]  So the health system has been evacuated in certain places.
[00:01:36]  In New York, the health system is working at maximum capacity.
[00:01:41]  In California, we're really at a minimal capacity getting rid of our doctors and nurses because we just don't have the volume.
[00:01:48]  The hospitals don't, as I've met with our CEOs twice in the last week, and we don't as well.
[00:01:53]  So we're busy with paperwork for COVID, and we're all focusing on COVID.
[00:01:58]  So the more you test, the more positives you get, the prevalence number goes up, and the death rate stays the same.
[00:02:07]  So it gets smaller and smaller and smaller.
[00:02:10]  And as we move through this data, what I want you to see is millions of cases, small amount of death.
[00:02:16]  Millions of cases, small amount of death.
[00:02:18]  So if we look at California, these numbers are from yesterday.
[00:02:22]  We have 33,865 COVID cases out of a total of 280,900 total tested.
[00:02:30]  That's 12% of Californians were positive for COVID.
[00:02:34]  As you guys know, the initial models were woefully inaccurate.
[00:02:38]  They predicted millions of cases of death, not of prevalence or incidence, but death.
[00:02:44]  That is not materializing.
[00:02:46]  What is materializing in the state of California is 12% positives.
[00:02:51]  We've seen 1,227 deaths in the state of California with a possible incidence or prevalence of 4.7 million.
[00:03:02]  That means you have a 0.03 chance of dying from COVID-19 in the state of California.
[00:03:07]  I also wanted to mention that 96% of people in California who get COVID recover with almost no significant sequelae or no significant continuing medical problems.
[00:03:18]  So I want to look at New York State.
[00:03:20]  They've been in the news a lot, right?
[00:03:22]  And their numbers are critical.
[00:03:24]  Let's go over their numbers.
[00:03:27]  Cases of COVID as of yesterday, 256,272 cases in New York State, not New York City, New York, the entire state.
[00:03:35]  They did a total of 649,325 tests.
[00:03:39]  That's 39% of New Yorkers tested positive for COVID-19.
[00:03:44]  That's their ratios.
[00:03:45]  This is public data online.
[00:03:47]  You can all look it up.
[00:03:48]  How many deaths do they have?
[00:03:49]  19,410 out of 19 million people, which is a 0.1% chance of dying from COVID in the state of New York.
[00:03:58]  And they have a 92% recovery rate.
[00:04:01]  If you are indeed diagnosed with COVID-19, 92% of you will recover.
[00:04:06]  So we're seeing millions of cases, small amount of death.
[00:04:10]  USA, this is a big one for us.
[00:04:14]  802,590 cases as of yesterday gives us a 19.6% positive out of those who were tested.
[00:04:22]  So if this is a typical extrapolation, 328 million people times 19.6 is 64 million.
[00:04:30]  That's a significant amount of people with COVID.
[00:04:32]  It's similar to the flu.
[00:04:33]  If you study the numbers in 2017 and 2018, we had 50 to 60 million with the flu.
[00:04:40]  And we had a similar death rate.
[00:04:43]  The deaths in the United States were 43,545.
[00:04:47]  Similar to the flu of 2017-2018.
[00:04:50]  We always have between 37 and 60,000 deaths in the United States every single year.
[00:04:56]  No pandemic talk, no shelter in place, no shutting down of businesses, no sending doctors home.
[00:05:03]  COVID-19 is one aspect of our health sector.
[00:05:06]  What has it caused to have us be involved in social isolation?
[00:05:12]  What does it cause that we are seeing the community respond to?
[00:05:16]  Child molestation is increasing at a severe rate.
[00:05:19]  We could go over multiple cases of children who have been molested due to angry family members who are intoxicated, who are home, who have no paycheck.
[00:05:30]  These things last a lifetime.
[00:05:32]  This isn't about a seasonal flu.
[00:05:34]  These are things that will follow these people and affect them in a negative fashion for their life.
[00:05:39]  And these are secondary effects from COVID.
[00:05:41]  And these are for me talking to ERs, talking to my doctors, and talking to people across the country and finding out what they're seeing.
[00:05:48]  Spousal abuse.
[00:05:50]  We see people coming in here with black eyes and cuts on their face.
[00:05:53]  It's an obvious abusive case.
[00:05:55]  These are things that will affect them for a lifetime, not for a season.
[00:05:59]  Alcoholism, anxiety, depression, suicide.
[00:06:02]  I talked to the Donnie Youngblood and various people in the community.
[00:06:08]  I've asked them, how are things going?
[00:06:10]  Suicide is spiking.
[00:06:11]  Education has dropped off.
[00:06:13]  Economic collapse.
[00:06:14]  Medical industry, we're all suffering because our staff isn't here and we have no volume.
[00:06:20]  These are all real things that I'm seeing every day.
[00:06:22]  I don't read about this stuff.
[00:06:24]  I'm seeing it in my clinics.
[00:06:25]  We have clinics from Fresno to San Diego and these things are spiking in our community.
[00:06:30]  These things will affect people for a lifetime, not for a season.
[00:06:33]  So let's make sure we're clear on that.
[00:06:35]  We've gone over the statistics.
[00:06:36]  Now I want to compare flu virus.
[00:06:39]  Is this significantly different?
[00:06:41]  Deaths per the CDC, 24,000 to 62,000 deaths each year.
[00:06:46]  We had about 45 million total cases in 2017 with about 62,000 deaths, or a 0.13 chance of death from flu in the United States.
[00:06:58]  As you know, our other numbers were 0.02.
[00:07:01]  So the lethality of COVID-19 is much less.
[00:07:07]  And then when you bring up a system of lockdown, you automatically have to compare it to a system of no lockdown.
[00:07:13]  The immune system is built by exposure to antigens, viruses, bacteria.
[00:07:17]  When you're a little child crawling on the ground, putting stuff in your mouth, viruses and bacteria come in, you form an antigen antibody complex, you form IgG, IgM.
[00:07:27]  This is how your immune system is built.
[00:07:29]  You don't take a small child, put them in bubble wrap in a room and say, go have a healthy immune system.
[00:07:35]  This is immunology microbiology 101.
[00:07:38]  What I'm seeing is when you take human beings and you say, go into your house, clean all your counters, Lysol them down, you're going to kill 99% of viruses and bacteria.
[00:07:48]  Wear a mask, don't go outside.
[00:07:49]  What does that do to our immune system?
[00:07:51]  Our immune system is used to touching.
[00:07:54]  We share bacteria, staphylococcus, streptococcal bacteria, viruses.
[00:07:58]  We develop an immune response daily to this stuff.
[00:08:01]  When you take that away from me, my immune system drops.
[00:08:05]  As I shelter in place, my immune system drops.
[00:08:08]  You keep me there for months, it drops more.
[00:08:10]  And now I'm at home hand washing vigorously, washing the counters, worried about things that are indeed what I need to survive.
[00:08:18]  When a child is in a womb, you're in this protected environment.
[00:08:21]  When you come out, you have almost no immune system.
[00:08:23]  You develop that through touching your mouth, touching your eyes, virus, bacteria, virus, bacteria, immune response, IgG, IgM.
[00:08:31]  This is how you build a strong immune system.
[00:08:34]  Sheltering in place decreases your immune system.
[00:08:37]  And then as we all come out of shelter in place with a lower immune system and start trading viruses and bacteria, what do you think is going to happen?
[00:08:43]  Disease is going to spike.
[00:08:45]  And then you've got disease spike amongst a hospital system with furloughed doctors and nurses.
[00:08:50]  This is not the combination we want to set up for a healthy society.
[00:08:54]  As your mask that you're wearing for days, you touch the outside of it, COVID, and then touch your mouth.
[00:08:59]  This doesn't make any sense.
[00:09:01]  We wear masks in an acute setting to protect us.
[00:09:04]  We're not wearing masks.
[00:09:06]  Why is that?
[00:09:07]  Because we understand microbiology, we understand immunology, and we want strong immune systems.
[00:09:12]  I don't want to hide in my home, develop a weak immune system, and then come out and get diseased.
[00:09:18]  We have both been in the ER through swine flu and through bird flu.
[00:09:22]  Did we shut down for those?
[00:09:24]  Were they much less dangerous than COVID?
[00:09:27]  Is the flu less dangerous than COVID?
[00:09:31]  Let's look at the death rates.
[00:09:32]  No, it's not.
[00:09:33]  And when someone, what's interesting to me too is when someone dies in this country right now, they're not talking about the high blood pressure, the diabetes, the stroke.
[00:09:40]  They say, do they die from COVID?
[00:09:44]  We've been to hundreds of autopsies.
[00:09:46]  You don't talk about one thing.
[00:09:47]  You talk about comorbidities.
[00:09:50]  Their vessels were narrowed.
[00:09:52]  Their lungs were a smoker.
[00:09:54]  COVID was part of it.
[00:09:56]  It is not the reason they died, folks.
[00:09:58]  It is one of many reasons.
[00:10:00]  So to be so simplistic, to say, that's a COVID death because they have COVID, you know how many people die with pneumonia or people that die from flu, with flu, I should say, it's not from flu.
[00:10:12]  Their lungs were compromised by COPD.
[00:10:15]  They had a heart attack two years ago.
[00:10:17]  They have a weakened body.
[00:10:19]  We aren't pressured to test for flu.
[00:10:21]  But ER doctors now, my friends that I talk to say, you know, it's interesting.
[00:10:26]  When I'm writing up my death report, I'm being pressured to add COVID.
[00:10:30]  Why is that?
[00:10:32]  Why are we being pressured to add COVID to maybe increase the numbers and make it look a little bit worse than it is?
[00:10:38]  I think so.
[00:10:39]  When I look at the basic tenets that we know of microbiology and I say, do we need to still shelter in place?
[00:10:47]  Our answer is emphatically no.
[00:10:50]  Do we need businesses to be shut down?
[00:10:52]  Emphatically no.
[00:10:55]  Do we need to test them and get them back to work?
[00:10:58]  Yes, we do.
[00:10:59]  The secondary effects that we went over, the child abuse, alcoholism, loss of revenue, all these are, in our opinion, a significantly more detrimental thing to society than a virus that has proven similar in nature to the seasonal flu we have every year.
[00:11:16]  We need to make sure if you're going to dance on someone's constitutional rights, you better have a good reason.
[00:11:23]  You better have a really good scientific reason and not just theory.
[00:11:27]  One of the most important things is we need our hospitals back up.
[00:11:30]  We need our furloughed doctors back.
[00:11:31]  We need our nurses back because when we lift this thing, we're going to need all hands on deck.
[00:11:36]  I know the local hospitals have closed two floors.
[00:11:38]  Folks, that's not the situation you want.
[00:11:41]  We're essentially setting ourselves up to have minimal staff and we're going to have significant disease.
[00:11:46]  That's the wrong combination.
[00:11:48]  And I've been working with some of the leaders and I've talked to the head of the CDPH.
[00:11:53]  I've gotten their opinion on this and a lot of the leaders in Sacramento.
[00:11:57]  And we're all in agreement.
[00:11:59]  But we need to have Governor Newsom in agreement with us to lift this ban.
[00:12:05]  I've talked to our local head of the health department, and he's waiting for that.
[00:12:11]  Even though they're in agreement with me, they're waiting for the powers that be to lift.
[00:12:15]  Because the data is showing us it's time to lift.
[00:12:17]  So if we don't lift, what is the reason?
[00:12:20]  I can go into Sully's right now, which I did this morning.
[00:12:22]  There were 25 people in there, and I can stand in line for 10 minutes, but I can't go in Cafe Rio and sit there for 10 minutes.
[00:12:28]  Does that make sense to you guys?
[00:12:30]  And I can go into Costco and I can shop with people, and there's probably a couple hundred people, but I can't go in Cafe Rio.
[00:12:37]  So big businesses are open, little businesses are not.
[00:12:41]  There's no science behind that, as we've gone over.
[00:12:45]  That is not science.
[00:12:46]  There's other factors in play that we don't have time to go into, but it's not science.
[00:12:51]  I want to make that clear.

=== Ammo Rush (00:50) ===

[00:12:53]  They're going to use this model for different things.
[00:12:56]  We got a bomb threat from China.
[00:12:57]  Everybody stay in their home for three months.
[00:12:58]  What?
[00:13:00]  They are using this to see how much of their freedom can they take from you.
[00:13:05]  And will you roll over and stay in your house?
[00:13:08]  And it's working.
[00:13:12]  And if you notice the way Americans are responding, if you go to any gun store in town, guess what they're out of?
[00:13:17]  Ammo.
[00:13:19]  None of them have ammo.
[00:13:20]  I went to three of them.
[00:13:21]  They said thousands of rounds have been bought.
[00:13:23]  Why?
[00:13:24]  People are mad.
[00:13:25]  They're starting to post on my Facebook with their AKs going, let's roll.
[00:13:29]  So what I'm saying is, let's avoid all that.
[00:13:33]  Because if you stomp on our freedoms, that has one ending, and it's violence.
[00:13:42]  All right.
