This doctor's claims made on that podcast have been largely debunked.[0] And his association with a serious-sounding medical group is rather revealing.[1]

JRE as Entertainment? Yes. Accurate guidance on important science issues? Not so much.[2]

It’s sad that HN deletes the original comment so I can’t see what this is in response to, though I see the doctor’s name in your links. Going to watch the original and then read your links. Even though this “doctor” is probably a whack job, I love listening to people I disagree with and seeing their points rebutted.

If you click on your username in the upper right hand corner, there should be a "showdead:" option that you can set to "yes" in order to see these posts.

Indeed, deadly misinformation about a disease with a 99.8% survival rate. The shame, the horror...

809300 deaths out of 51574787 cases is 1.5%. that's nothing if you don't care about the people that died, or the many that suffered and lived.

How many deaths does it take be considered deadly?

Based on the survival rate of 99.8% in 7B (approx world's population) is about 14M deaths (if we are not there yet, we should be tending towards it based on the survival rate). Besides, this doesn't consider cases of long covid, financial and other impact on people/families etc.
