Dr. Dan Erickson and Dr. Artin Massihi, of Accelerated Urgent Care in Bakersfield, California, recently posted their video to YouTube but it was deleted - after 5 million views!
Here's a partial transcript:
Dr. Dan Erickson: There's a 0.03% chance of dying from covid-19 in the state of California. Does that necessitate shutting down medical systems? Does that necessitate people being out of work? 96% of people in California who get covid-19 recover with no significant continuing medical problems ... We're not wearing masks, why is that? Because we understand microbiology, we understand immunology, and we want strong immune systems ... We've both been in ER, through swine flu, through bird flu, did we shutdown for those? Were they less dangerous than covid? Is the flu less dangerous than covid? Let's look at the death rates. No, it's not. They're similar in prevalence and in death rate. When someone dies in this country now ... the first question is, did they die from covid? We've been to hundreds of autopsies ... covid is not the reason they died, it is one of many reasons; it's so simplistic to say that's a covid death. But ER doctors now say, you know, when we're writing the death report, we're being pressured to add covid - why is that? Why are we being pressured to add covid, to maybe increase the numbers? I think so ... (my colleagues) say we are being pressured to add covid to the diagnostic list when we think it has nothing to do with the actual cause of death. The actual cause of death was not covid.
Guest: Are you saying it's not necessary for healthy individuals to be quarantined?
Dr. Artin Massihi: Yes, if you're young and healthy why would you quarantine yourself? It doesn't make any sense. You quarantine the ill.
Dr. Dan Erickson: There are two ways to get rid of a virus: either it burns itself out or we develop herd immunity. For hundreds of years we relied on herd immunity. Viruses kill people, end of story. The flu kills people, covid kills people. But for the rest of us we develop herd immunity. We develop the ability to take this virus in and defeat it and for the vast majority, 95% of those around the globe, this is true. And when we look at people who have locked down and at people who haven't locked down, and we have massive data, it is not statistically significant whether you lock down or not. So why are we doing it? The data is showing it;s time to lift the lock down, So if we don't lift it, what is the reason? ... I can go into Costgo and shop with people, and there's probably a couple of hundred people, but I can't go into Cafe Rio. So big businesses are open, little businesses are not. There's no science behind that ... there are other factors in play which we don't have time to go into now, but it's not science. I want to make that clear.
Dr. Artin Massihi: One thing that's being televised is that we need to capture every single covid patient. No we don't .. It would be nice to capture every patient but is that realistic? Are we going to keep the economy shut down for two years and vaccinate everybody? That's an unrealistic expectation ... You're going to cause financial ruin, domestic violence, suicide ... We need to treat this like the flu and eventually this will mutate and become less and less virulent ... Going outside is healthy; why can't you go to the park and walk around but you can go to Home Depot and everybody's not wearing a mask? It doesn't make sense; the inconsistencies and incongruities make no sense, that's the bottom line ... By wearing a mask and gloves friendly bacteria which protect you ... will end up going away and you're more likely to get opportunistic infections ... because you no longer have good bugs fighting for you.
