    Given the facts which are referenced, this interview took place around the middle of February, probably mid-February or shortly before. This would match Professor Levitt's other video interviews on the subject.
    As of 21/02/20, whilst the virus in China has almost abated, it has accelerated markedly in other place, most notably Italy.
    It would be interesting to learn Professor Levitt's current views.

      Italy has a more sociable culture than China, and has more elderly people. That could explain it.

    Got to treat it early. Before it progresses. The first day of starting a safe effective treatment protocol, on the infection time line, is a crucial and highly significant factor in saving lives.

    Levitt does not understand the PCR test. It is often as positive or negative but the underlying technique is quantitative, giving an idea of the viral load. Also it measures RNA, not DNA, in the case of the coronavirus.

    This is the same guy who predicted that Israel shouldn’t have no more than 10 deaths. Hows that going Michael?

      You are correct. I noticed that.

      His prediction has worked out a lot better than Ferguson’s model which would have Israel at around 100k deaths by now.

    ...”antibiotics and antivirals are like clean water. They are a right...” - there are some prominent public figures who say clean water is not a right...sadly. “..vaccines don’t go all the way..” Nice obs

    At 11.09 he says "I don't believe it (coronavirus) is going to be very dangerous." This guys thinking is so muddled and inaccurate he should not be taken seriously on this subject.

    • @aland2465
      @aland2465 4 роки тому +1

      In fairness, he was spot on about that. The doomsday modelling was exponentially wrong.

      Exactly, New Zealand was right so was Australia and South Korea. Sweden UK and US are a failure.

      He would be biased and giving a false political narrative. Best to have an outside genius analyze hard numbers. You can't get around the numbers..
