Karen DeSalvo, the chief health officer at Google, explains the partnership between big tech and public health in slowing the spread of COVID-19 — and discusses a new contact tracing technology recently rolled out by Google and Apple that aims to ease the burden on health workers and provide scientists critical time to create a vaccine. (This virtual conversation, hosted by current affairs curator Whitney Pennington Rodgers and head of TED Chris Anderson, was recorded on May 27, 2020.)

That’s a no from me dawg.
Sounds like a bad idea
cancel TED pls
And suppress any anti-China speech while canceling those that stray too far from the NWO narrative. They do all the thinking for us.
Cease pandering to leftist lies. Peaceful protests about re-opening? “Killing grandma, spreading covid.”
Mass riots, arson, assault, rape = “peaceful protest that definitely doesn’t spread covid… That is why we turned off the contact tracers… So we can keep our eyes covered and ears plugged & pretend that is true.”
TED is useful for telling us what’s the next propaganda that will be programmed into the sheeple’s brains 🙂
such a shame. Used to be a good science presentation. Now just Leftist propaganda.

Dystopian fiction had us believe that all these changes would be by brute force, then reality showed that all it takes is to make some yuppies nod in naive agreement of subversive ideas.
Last time I was this early there was no Covid-19.
By tracking your every move and sending it to the government. Thanks, I’ll pass.
If you are not scared of Googles cultural and political agenda you have not been paying attention.
Google thinks the rug can’t be pulled from under them, but it can.
If you think there is a cultural or political agenda beyond “make money’ then you havent been paying attention

Translation: How tech companies can further enslave us, strip us of our freedom of speech, and cancel anyone who doesn’t conform to the orthodoxy of the radical globalist marxist left.
Another Karen.
First the pandemic. Now the panderdemic.

No one thought that protests didnt spread covid
@CountJimbo MSNBC states that the protests don’t spread covid. CNN agrees. That is why they are fake news.
They also say “the demO-crats don’t want to take your guns” and “the demO-crats defend freedom of speech.”
All lies.
Big tech companies are not worthy of the public trust. They demonstrate that regularly
That’s a no from me. I don’t like slavery
Stop begging for big tech to have even MORE power? It’s not their damn job to manipulate or censor things to push certain propaganda.
STOP TRYING TO CONTROL EVERYTHING!
its kinda sad to see how ted devolved into this globalist technocratic direction, instead of relying on fascinating science back in the day. Follow the money I guess.
@Savstradamus it would be interesting to know if Anderson is a 33rd degree you know what.
Tech “companies” should probably not have a say in public discourse or be using their development of social platforms as an opportunistic means of socially engineering the populace.
its crazy to see how they psychopaths talk about this like it’s a Saturday lounging at the beach, its very normalized for them
Sadly most of people tune out when something gets difficult but yeah i agree british on beach, french out on streets celebrating as if its all over when in fact its nowhere near.
HOW IS JAPAN CURING PEOPLE WITH COVID-19 HYDROGEN AND OXYGEN OTHERWISE KNOWN AS HYDROX
You mean killing them because OH is a ROH that can kill and cause anemia in excessive concentration…. If you meant OH- then you are suggesting killing people as it is a strong base no thanks…. If you mean water, its name isn’t hydrox (the above two are hydroxyl radical and hydroxyl ion respectively).
This is not a pandemic with a death rate of less than 1% it’s tied with the normal flu. Masks don’t work and social distancing is a joke. Google lies just like the MSM. Don’t fall for it
Ted is NWO propaganda…. it’s pure evil…
