LET'S HAVE CHURCH ANYWAY

THE VIRUS QUARANTINE HAS MOST CHURCHES UNCONSTITUTIONALLY CLOSED.

• It is unconstitutional to ban either assembly or religion.
• Leaders who want the bans are exceeding their authority.
• Any leader who specifically wants churches closed should be impeached for bigoted discrimination against religion. Do not vote for these bigots.
• There are ways to prevent the spread of viruses that leaders have not thought of.
  1. Direct exposure to strong ultraviolet light kills them.

     - Exposure to this light harms humans. So the light must be used without exposing people to it.

     * Methods are available to kill the viruses without exposing humans.

     * - One method is passing environmental air through ultraviolet light in ducts or inside special fans.

     * - They sell special filter fans with UV and UV lights for furnace ducts.

     * - Sunlight works too, but it takes longer. Direct exposure takes several minutes.

  2. Certain chemicals kill the virus in seconds.

     - 70% or higher isopropyl or ethyl alcohol

     - Hydrogen peroxide

  3. Fresh air provides oxygen that can kill the viruses.

  4. There are circumstances where wearing a mask is a waste:

     - Outside in sunshine and moving fresh air

     - In your car (unless carrying passengers for hire or someone is at an open window)

     - Where nobody else is present and you aren't cleaning something

• We now know that many of the assumptions that led to the bans are not true:
  1. The statisticians assumed the first US case of Covid19 was in late February.

     - We now know that two people died of Covid19 in the first week of February.

     * This changes the zero points and the slopes on all of the curves.

  2. The scientists assumed that all of the cases had symptoms.

     - We now know that many people have Covid19 without showing any symptoms.

     * This means that people without symptoms have been spreading Covid19 for months.

     * This makes all of the math done on Covid19 suspect. The data are incomplete. Not enough is known to calculate new curves.

  3. The scientists assumed that respiratory fluids were the only way the virus was transmitted.

     - We now know that Covid19 viruses can be found in air pollution and pets.

     * This may mean that all of the efforts to stop the spread of Covid19 are futile.
