    The totals didn't "promptly dip at the same time the R rate was 3".
    Can you explain what you mean?

    The point of the graph was evidence to contradict the claim:

    When challenged, oPM asked for evidence that it ever got above 1.1, I chose that source and asked him to prove otherwise, which he has failed to do so.

    So, if you feel the Wail is wrong in saying that the R rate was up near 3, please provide evidence, not just your suspicion that far right media sources are well known for spreading lies to the gullible.

    Whether or not a quack agrees to pay somebody 5k is irrelevant to whether the virus exists. That isn't how reality works.

    You seem to think that the quack will pay somebody 5k if a proof is valid. Therefore if he does not pay 5k, the proof is invalid.
