The five biggest coronavirus myths BUSTED!

Published on August 17, 2020

Written by Peter Andrews


The coronavirus misinformation that scientists, politicians and media have fed to the public has been shocking. Take a tour through the bizarre, contradictory and downright ludicrous myths that have done more damage than Covid.

Or rather, do read it, but don’t expect to like it. There is no place for assumptions here—only logical thought from first principles. The only aim is to debunk the biggest myths that the media and political establishment have propagated.

And if you can hear me out then I salute you; there are few of us left who hold open minds.


Myth 1: Slowing the spread of the virus is a good idea

Myth 2: Lockdowns slow the spread

Myth 3: Contact tracing is the answer

Myth 4: BAME people are more at risk

Myth 5: For schools to open, pubs must close



The bigger the lie -

It may have been Joseph Goebbels who said: ‘’If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.’’ It seems this is an evergreen statement; not only is there no limit to the size of the lie, there seems to be no limit on the number of lies either.

Time to get on with life or we'll have no life left to get on with.

Comrade Dan's talking about delaying the exit of stage 4.

Hi BO,
All the rules act as a blunt instrument -
smashing an ant with a sledge hammer.
Someone walking down a beach alone
is not going to infect anyone yet it's illegal
if you're more than 5km away from that beach.

Jim's mowing is not allowed to mow lawns even though
they have no contact with their customers.

Dan Andrews has gone too far and his last
lockdown never worked.
It didn't work in NZ either.
To repeat the same experiment expecting a different outcome
is a sign of madness. Einstein.

What we need to do is take reasonable steps:
wear face masks,
wash hands,
maintain social distancing.
We shouldn't be in massive lockdowns.

The many will always suffer for the few who are morons.

Unfortunately, morons are easy to find in Melbourne.

You know something?
In between the 2 lockdowns I couldn’t find one hairdresser wearing a face mask.
That’s why I didn’t get a haircut – it wasn’t worth the risk with the dirty,
unhygienic arse holes working in hairdresser shops.

I need a trim but I think I'll either wait it out or do it myself.
