The Coronavirus thread

Seems perfectly normal:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">BREAKING: NYC tops 20,000 Coronavirus deaths. 14,928 who have died tested positive for COVID-19, & 5,129 did not have a positive COVID-19 lab test, but their death certificate lists "COVID-19" as cause of death, for total of 20,056. Per <a href="https://twitter.com/Tom_Winter?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Tom_Winter</a></p>— Ali Velshi (@AliVelshi) <a href="https://twitter.com/AliVelshi/status/1260039863996485632?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 12, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

5,129 did not have a positive COVID-19 lab test, but their death certificate lists "COVID-19" as cause of death

This guy is getting his info from?? Also doesn't say they tested negative. Chances are assuming the report is correct these people simply never got tested but had all the symptoms. The amount of manipulation on both sides is sad

Chances are? ****, the symptoms of the FLU are similar to COVID. The symptoms of Pneumonia are similar to COVID. But you're ok with calling all Flu and all Pneumonia deaths (remember, which USED to kill people) as COVID deaths?

Damn. Just...damn.

Chances are? That's quite the assumption to make. And saying it doesn't specifically say they tested negative means what exactly? So if a person, for example, didn't test positive for diabetes -- but on their death certificate cause of death was listed as diabetes, you'd think that's okay?

Its quite the assumption to make that this guy's "facts" are accurate. The fact they didn't have a negative test simply means they may or may not have had Covid. The post makes it seem like people who didn't have covid are being reported as having it when no one really knows. Maybe these were from when testing wasn't readily available. The diabetes comparison doesn't work as there are far less visible symptoms. Sometimes Drs. have to make an educated guess.
 
It explicitly states that the data is 1 - 2 weeks behind.

1-2 weeks behind on data
virus has a 14-day duration.
roughly a month of this

how long have we been on lockdown, again? it's been so long that I've forgotten what day this started.
 
I'm going out to dinner tonight for the first time in almost 2 months. And I'm not wearing a ******* mask.

I know when mine started- St. Patrick's Day. We were on Spring Break and I got a text from my teacher to turn on the news- school was cancelled for the remainder of the year. A week later, Sedgwick County issued a stay at home order, then the entire state of KS followed suit not long after. It's been almost 2 months of this. Im DONE.
 
Yeah why doesn't Ark make an appearance at least every now and then? Or is he really Trog ******* with us all?

Ark is nowhere near as lucid and mentally capable as Flog.

And can't remember the day this all started? Hell, I'm having a hard time keeping track of what day it is.

Where is Spike?

Still a civilian, govt rejected my application, too old to serve again.

**** em, just bought 50 surgical masks from Amazon/China for $12, even the ******* commissary and shoppette/Class 6 store requires you to wear one now

Beaches are open, I'm good, thx for asking, lol

Ark is too busy. He's adopted a nephew....an Ogre to be exact. And Ark spends 24x7 working to make his adopted nephew Ogre feel at home at Casa de Ark. Ogre refers to him fondly as Unca Ark. Speaking of, there is a rumor that Casa de Ark has become a non-stop brothel of sorts. The lockdown has forced Ark into perpetual sexual servitude to his beloved before he cuddles the Ogre to sleep at night.

All just rumors, but I'm no denier.

that rumor is debunked. many times over. please, for all that is good and holy, let it go.
fact is, Ark is 24/7 cuddling the Ogre. Sometimes Ark is the big spoon, sometimes he's the little spoon.
always spooning, though. always.

Ark is not remotely smart enough to pretend to be Trog. He would last about five words in a post, the Arkness would take over, he'd remove his shirt, take unwanted pictures, share the horror, and man-boob us into a coma.
