This was very interesting again. It's so important and rare that someone takes such a neutral and differenciating look at the data, so PLEASE don't stop.
I appreciate your work very much!

"This is just BS at this time". Best intro yet

[tamzinwood]

My mom, step dad, husband and I just had covid in south africa, all not vaxxed. The whole family took ivm once a month except me because I was breastfeeding and when I stopped breastfeeding I forgot to take it so I had it the worst. The rest of the family was hardly sick, I was extremely sick for 5 days.
My 10 month old and 2 year old unfortunately had it bad as well. But the oldies were carrying on as normal

[lynguy]

Thank you. I am not even worried. Good day to everyone!

[desertfox]

Thank you doctor for nipping it in the bud. These days fear is fair play marketing and fast truth is the only answer.

All the Best from Denmark 🇩🇰

Stay safe/Strong/Happy/healty
👁️❤️👁️
Hope the world wake up soon.
🙏🙏🙏

B.S at this time... drops it, showing true mastery of English,
Polite yet cutting where is is needed... Dr Been is a gentleman and a scholar. It would be an honour if I was in a swordfight and I received one of those cool scars like a German aristocrat...
or an eye patch!
Thankyou again sir!

[kimfleury]

Oh how I wish you had been my instructor in my college medical classes! I had some very good ones, and did quite well in their classes. But I also had some who seemed to be speaking a language I'd never heard. I understand your explanations quite well, so I think I would have done well in your classes.

[annalisette]

I think I joined your site. I never do business online but made an exception. I checked out the site a while back but it said it was for professionals and at this time I don't work in the medical field. I am a professional journalist, though. I am looking forward to learning more. I intend to support medical research and have some great ideas. I have been delayed in my quest due to chronic migraine.

[gennarinabyrd]

I have very much enjoyed your talks, very good information and education. It is with a heavy heart that I must admit I am currently financially able to help in supporting you diligent work. So very sorry Dr. Mobeen

[goldreserve]

Nearly 1/3 of the world unvcc'd and yet cases dropping. Asymptomatic cases must be > 80%? I'm over 50, unvcc'd following FLCCC. Had a runny nose for 24 hours, could've been omi or some weird rhinovirus. For most people omi is nothing.

[MasakiniTheatre]

Thank you Dr. Mobeen. Now, I can at least breathe easier.What a load of BS and continued fear mongering.

[leonerose]

Appreciate learning. Thanks so much! ☕🦋

[saliksayyar]

Epidemiology cannot easily measure transmissibility. Human behavior, vaccination status, age, comorbidities are the major determinants of apparent transmissibility.

[bobchannell]

Thanks for doing this video. I hoped you'd cover this. I saw the CNN article, and I figured it was not right.

[joymassin]

What a useful Lecture and glad BA.2 is not really to worry about. Unfortunately there are so many frustrated people around that make other people feel bad in order to regain their own OK-ness feeling. Even if I share my own experience with the Loofy, some people are trying to offend me. It does not touch me and I feel sorry for them because it’s a sign of weakness and frustration… <3

[SamyukthaKaditham]

Really love your videos. Lot of my doubts have cleared. Thankyou so much. 🙏

I got notified an hour after this show aired, said it was live.

[oirism]

The fact of Denmark opening up February 1st should not be confused with causality of their case trajectory. Their scientists accurately predicted that the wave will go up and peak in mid February and then will start going down, as it is happening. Opening and closing (restrictions) most likely has no effect on the dynamics of omicron.

[gailann]

How are they able to honestly look at increased infectiousness, even within household, under the backdrop of increased opening up of activities in the country/area? What would be more accurate to say is that there has been an increase in spread and in deaths since reopening. Even within households those individuals are all going out and interacting rather than hunkering down.
