• [07:19] The World Health Organization advocates the lockdowns are not good.  
• [08:40] The Great Barrington Declaration is a very unique document. They are more worried about the mental and health impacts as a result of lockdowns and shutdowns of our economy versus the coronavirus itself.  
• [10:45] A lot of the problems are from misinformation. There are going to be 10 million people starving in Africa based on bad information when Africa has some of the lowest COVID infection rates. 
• [13:36] We should have done what Sweden and Denmark did back in May which was put protocols in place for preparing foods and protect those that we needed to protect.
• [15:02] We are seeing double the amount of deaths in the states with the most restrictions.                
• [17:11] Hospitals are getting paid to code death Cornavirus through the Federal Coronavirus relief packages. 
• [17:51] A CDC study from September 2020 found evidence that most who contracted the Coronavirus frequently wore masks.  
• [18:57] If the people most likely to contract it are wearing the masks, that just proves it is too small of a particle size for the mask to stop anyway and people aren’t wearing them right. Joey has taken a holistic approach with sunlight, Vitamin D, and Zinc instead.
