Latest on the Corona Virus

lots of younger / middle age people reporting (on youtube) lasting symptoms such as lung scarring (cystic fibrosis) etc . That would effect employment etc long term

I've read something about scarring but nothing concrete and I'm not really putting a lot of credibility in youtube. How many do you suppose this is affecting?

[BillyCarpenter]

supposedly the logic they are following is

because there's increase in cases(even with false positive and motivs), the irrefutable is people traffic, because it will take so much time to track and attempt to "moderate", but its puts less burden on the admin and faster to make system wide policy.

imagine a control loop, the admin set out a target and adj accordingly, but the process isnt responding, what would admin do? Turn the dial up to 11? Is that admin's fault? You can say yes and no, but its not theirs alone(even if they have agendas).

The tricky part is the participants. There are loopholes and loophole takers you never know what folks will do regardless of race/class.


best case i think of is the bike helmet debate, not everyone will wear them.

We can debate corona guidelines/polices til the cows come home. Democrats are the ones advocating heavy handed policy. Yet, to a man they have allowed BLM to protest in huge numbers across the country.

Why would anyone follow democrats lead when it only applies to some?

And again, there's a heavy price to pay for individuals that are in democrat controlled states/cities. Folks are going broke. How much longer can we do this?

the youtube clips Ive seen are out takes from various tv programs from various countries but they have a similar theme. As for numbers, someone will probably come up with ratio to death numbers maybe

its not a political issue. Its way harder.

Allow me to retort. It's not SUPPOSED to be a political issue, but it IS.

But lets assume you're right.

Do we both agree that democrats are allowing massive gatherings by Black Lives Matter with no social distancing and for all others, you can't even go gather in groups larger than 10 or so? Is that true? I'm gonna assume your answer is a whopping YES?

Again, why should I listen to democrats who want me to follow their lead? Why should I play by a different set of rules? Is that what leadership is these days? I don't think so.

Fatality rate for those who have contracted SARS-CoV-2 :

3.05% world wide
2.89% in the USA

These numbers are computed by dividing the total number of deaths by the total number of cases. Bear in mind that the reported number of deaths includes anyone who died after testing positive for SARS-CoV-2, no matter what the actual cause of death was.

Things that have killed more people worldwide than SARS-CoV-2:

Road traffic accidents 990,764
HIV/AIDS 1,233,829
Alcohol 1,835,703
Smoking 3,699,101
Cancer 6,027,990
Abortion 31,232,920 and counting

The above numbers are running total and will have increased. Source is:

Don't forget age. Age kills way more people than all of the items you listed.

Israel reports highest ever daily spike in coronavirus infections

Even though they imposed strict lockdown measures back in March, and were praised for "keeping the virus in check"......they are now seeing their highest numbers ever 6 months after the "beginning" of the pandemic (i say "beginning" because we all know this started, at the least, back in mid December), and that has ushered in new lock down measures.

Whereas the US has seen a steady decline in numbers since July, where only some states/ cities instituted lockdowns and restrictions, and had massive protests (super-spreader events), and re-opened most our country/ economy as soon as, if not sooner, than Israel. We are now falling to numbers of cases that we haven't seen since the "beginning" of this pandemic.

Herd Immunity Soon??

Also, the US has surpassed 100 Million people tested (101,576,073 to be exact), 2nd highest "actual tests performed" in the world behind the dirty communist fucks in China (you know they're lying), This means we have performed almost 15 times as many tests as Canada (which only has 37 million people). Equivalently we have tested the population of Canada almost 3 times (what's wrong up there? Thought that single payer healthcare system was so great!).

The US has done a damn good job against this virus......despite what the liberal media would have you believe.

Survival rates:
0 - 19 yrs = 99.997%
20 - 49 yrs = 99.98%
50 - 69 yrs = 99.5 %
70 and up = 94.6%

“Obviously people can tell you there are people who need to be careful with any sort of disease,” said Dr. William Wehunt. “Other than that, let’s live our lives and open up.”
