“Social” Distancing Not Scientifically Proven
Distances Not Uniform Among all Countries

With all the talk and mantra over six foot “social” distancing, nobody has stopped long enough to ask if it really works. Is there any real science to support its imposition on society?
According to scientists in the U.K., there is no science backing up the claims of social distance guidelines, which were originally crafted in the 1930’s. They say the guidelines are based on “very fragile” evidence and while the World Health Organization has always recommended a three foot standard, other countries arbitrarily expanded that distance “just to be on the safe side.” However, in addition to distance, time is also a factor. For example, it’s been estimated spending 6 seconds 3 feet from someone infected is the same as spending a full minute at 6 feet.
Rather than a public safety measure, so-called “social” distancing appears to be more of an orchestrated psychological warfare operation against the global community.
Author, Carl Vernon points out an intriguing aspect of the control matrix; “Have we stopped to ask why it’s called ‘social’ distancing and why it’s not called physical distancing, or just distancing? So many of us have already experienced the psychological and social impact of social distancing. The people we can’t meet, the ill, the people literally dying that you can’t see. The mental health fallout of all this is going to be in unprecedented numbers moving forward. Anxiety levels, depression levels, the disconnection is going to continue to have a detrimental effect on our society.”
