Corona Virus update.

Then stop fearing the pandemic.

OTOH, cities would be the first infected, but 2-14 days later all of those Trump rally members will be presenting symptoms and up to two weeks later all of their friends and family. Should be interesting by Easter.

Cities are predominantly liberal, which is where most of the cases are originating from in this country. Quit spreading your disease.
 
7038 cases in the United States
97 deaths
1.4% death rate


Exactly where the experts said we would be if America followed what happened in Italy.

Moving much faster than H1N1 or any other virus we have ever seen. This was known 2 months ago, but our president refused to accept it until three days ago.

Hey Brad

Are you running away from this thread now? Just checking. I would love to keep talking about Italy's death rate compared to the US with you :)

I am here... what is it you want to discuss about the Italian death rate?

24 hours later 9400 cases in the United States.

Trump decided it was serious two weeks too late. South Korea decided it was serious the first day they had a case, they began testing right away. South Korea's numbers are dropping.
 
I don’t fear the common cold. I am going about my life. I have changed nothing.

On the contrary, you seem to be panicking by your frequent posting about COVID-19 and your signature. It's a classic example of false bravado. How do you think you'll look when COVID-19 surpasses H1N1? Are you really so self-deluded you believe that won't happen even though the WH is now on board that this is a National Health Emergency and calling out the US Navy hospital ships for support? Was that necessary with H1N1? Of course not.

This is a serious disease, but ~80% of the population will barely have sniffles. ~20% will feel like shit for a week or two and an unfortunate ~1% will die. Deaths will primarily be those who already have severe health issues or 70+ years old. If you are not in those categories, relax. Don't worry about this.
 
Isn't amazing that Brad is hoping for death and destruction because he thinks that is the only way to electoral success. That is what the democrat party has been reduced to in 2020

He sounds disappointed the numbers aren't much worse. Even more amazing what he said during a far worse epidemic during Obamunsim:

Why the hype? What is it about this flu that sets it apart from other flu's?

59 million Americans contracted the H1N1 virus, 265,000 were hospitalized as a result, and 12,428 died

So you think having 0.003% of our population getting this is worth shutting our entire economy down over? Is your hatred of Trump that bad that you are willing to see people suffer economically over this? I may have despised Obama being in the White House but, I would have never cheered this on the way you are.

You are a truly disgusting human being.

The only that will make this all great is seeing Trump re-elected despite all of this. I will rub it in your fucking nose every single day.

Thanks for making me so powerful but I can't claim credit for COVID-19. The fact you know I live in the country and am right of center just makes you look delusional, silly and fearful of this disease. Man up, RB. It won't be that bad. There is nothing to shit your pants about with this disease unless your health is already compromised or you are 70 years or older.

If you are, well, then it sucks to be you. :D

The vets on the forum see the humor in this meme, the civilians, not so much:

I am not following your reasoning? The economy started crashing WAY before Trump* even started talking about closing down the economy, in fact it was crashing when he said the cases would be close to 0 soon.

You keep lying.

Admit you either lied about the Italy death rate or you were just uninformed.

You said it was 1.5% and that we were the same. Italy's death rate is over 6%

You are trying to be slippery. If you don't acknowledge what you did, you are going on ignore and I am finished with you until this shit is over. This is too important to be dealing with liars like you who don't care that people are being economically harmed. You are actually cheering this on because you think you will benefit politically. That makes you scum in my book.

My Christianity is preventing me from wishing harm on you as much as I may want to
 
Hello Thing1,

There is good news out there, and some reason for optimism.

Did I hear right that China has no new cases? People have been talking over the past week how we're headed for where Italy has been. What about heading where China IS?

I also heard that warm weather might have a diminishing effect. With spring just around the corner, this may not be as bad as we're all worried about right now.

It's a hope, at least.

Good thoughts.

China is the example of the effectiveness of drastic measures. As soon as they realized the old 'deny, lie and distract approach' was not going to work, they took drastic measures very quickly. That had a good outcome.

Italy is the example of the tragedy of the old 'deny, lie and distract approach.' Eventually you have to take drastic measures anyway, and if you waited too late (like we did) they are not as effective.

The hope for us is that we are somewhere in between and that we finally took drastic measures still early enough to have a good effect.

The problem with this disease is that by the time people start dropping dead in mass numbers, you wish you had taken stronger measures a month back.

If you wait, it will be too late.

Sort of like climate change.

^Moron; it doesn't occur to witless leftist hacks like this that these diseases always ORIGINATE from third world shit holes with Government Managed healthcare.

You should move there you witless moron. :rolleyes:
