They want to compel you to work regardless

A couple of weeks ago we talked about Bill Cassidy's dream of putting you on a list that determines whether or not you "can" go back to work. The point, there, isn't so much about keeping you safe as much as it is about denying you protections and benefits.  It's also based on a kind of anti-science wishful thinking currently bubbling up through fraudulent research like this.

The email reveals that the researchers did not disclose another way participants were recruited that could have further skewed the results. In addition to targeting a specific demographic of parents in a wealthy part of Silicon Valley — making it even less likely that the participants represented a random sample — the email falsely claimed that the study’s antibody test was FDA approved, and was worded in a way that might have disproportionately attracted people who had previously been sick. It also misrepresented what participants could learn about their health from the testing. Advertisement

Given how new this coronavirus is, scientists do not definitively know how long antibodies can protect you from getting sick again. Yet Su’s email stated: “If you have antibodies against the virus, you are FREE from the danger of a) getting sick or b) spreading the virus. In China and U.K. they are asking for proof of immunity before returning to work. If you know any small business owners or employees that have been laid off, let them know -- they no longer need to quarantine and can return to work without fear.”

They don't care whether or not it is actually safe to send people back to work.  They're just looking for an excuse to do it anyway.
