Holding steady at six

No, I knew these types of posts would not age well.

Only to the uneducated. The fatalities are still at less than 1%, just like the flu, just like we said from the beginning. You're literally just not smart enough to comprehend that a lot of dead people can still be less than 1%. :rofl2:
 
Why are you cheering about this?

Because they think it hurts President Trump for them to act like lying scumbags. The always self-unaware left apparently doesn't realize that the voters they despise are smart enough to see who the problem is. :cool:

:thumbsup: So true!

They are giddy about Corona and The stock market tumbling. They can't help hide in any longer.

The number of coronavirus cases continues to climb in the U.S. The new disease has killed six people in the country, four from one nursing home near Seattle and two others in the same county. The cluster of deaths at the nursing facility in King County highlights the serious threat the disease poses to the elderly and infirm. There were just over 100 cases in 15 states as of Tuesday morning, with New Hampshire and Georgia being the most recent to join the battle against the virus.

And it’s misleading. The death toll from Corona isn’t ‘continuing to climb’—it’s the same as yesterday lol. And the deaths are all clustered in the same nursing home in Washington state. Sadly, it’s hardly unusual for the common flu to basically clean out a wing in a nursing home.

This hasn't aged well.

Jesus Christ- the stupidity of some people is thoroughly depressing.
 
Be prepared to defend the projections, lefties.

Or go hide.

I have not made any projections.

You predicated 6 deaths which was wrong.


Trump predicted we would soon be down to zero, which was wrong.

Somebody said something about 1.7 million deaths, which I dismissed as a worst case scenario unlikely to occur

The final death tally will completely depend on what preventative measures we take.

If we follow the advice of people like Governors Cuomo and Newsome, and medical professionals like CDC and WHO, I have reasonable confidence the death toll in this county can be limited.

If we believe what Trump and Fox News were saying three weeks ago, and base our actions on those opinions, the death toll will undoubtedly go ballistic.
 
The death toll has continued to climb from Friday, yes.

Contextualize your content, please.

But a lot slower than yesterday.

After developing shortness of breath and cough that wouldn't go away, she was admitted to the hospital on March 24 and tested positive to Covid-19. She was put on a ventilator in ICU and, after 4 days (on Saturday, March 28), she died. [source]
