Interesting enough, we’ve covered the three idiots behind the Great Barrington Declaration (two of which you claim are experts at something) over and over again, in [this very thread that you bumped](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/am-i-missing-something-here-re-reopening-of-bars-etc-now/922356/1235) and [others](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/explain-the-debate-about-natural-immunity-wrt-having-had-covid-19/952459/47) in this [forum](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/atlas-shrugged/926876/11). Hell, Gupta can’t even do basic math as she claims that CoVID has a 0.01% IFR:

> While I’ve already debunked the shit out of Gupta in past threads, I’ll just note that to arrive at a 0.01% infection fatality rate, the current almost 5 million dead (and let’s be fair, this is likely a drastic undercount) would require a global population of 50 billion people, 100% of who have been infected. Nice math, lady!
