The Coronavirus thread

Indiana's piece of **** RINO Governor just extended the ridiculous mask mandate for another month. That mf'er.

Sure, the US and Sweden are comparable to countries that have a much higher population density. Compare them against Sweden’s neighbors Norway 6 and Finland 5. 1/10th of the deaths. Compare them too South Korea .6, 1/100th the death rate.

The US and Sweden **** the bed on Covid. It is what it is.

Flog, I proved you wrong so you change the claim from "lockdown save lives" to "population density."

The issue is the effect of lockdowns. England, Italy, Spain - lockdowns. Sweden - no lockdown. England, Italy, Spain - higher deat rates than Sweden.

United States - New York, New Jersey, California, etc. - lockdowns. Arkansas, Iowa, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming - no lockdowns. Results?

So now that the data show your entire argument - lockdowns mandatory to save lives - is pure bullshit, you change the argument - lockdowns effective only at certain population density.

Another lie. Arkansas and Iowa have greater population density than Colorado and Oregon, two lockdown states. Arizona, a lockdown state, has greater population density than Arkansas. Arkansas - no lockdown, no problem; Arizona - lockdown, supposed "hot spot" for virus.

Huh. Almost as if you made up a new argument without researching it (again) and presumed you could get away with the new lie. Nope.

So "lockdowns save lives" is gone, "population density explains why no lockdown, no problem" fails.

Try again.

Oh, and you failed to answer the question, Dr. Lockdown: Are you still earning your regular wages - or even more because of panic? You can tell me. I won't share.
 
Governor Cooper is getting ready to grace my tv to discuss NC's "battle" with the vid.

"Remember the 3 W's North Carolinians.........Wear a mask, Wash your hands,and Wait 6 feet apart."

Color me enthralled.

My son just found out he tested positive for COVID. No real symptoms, said he feels fine, can't really smell anything. Told him to self isolate for 10 days.

Sorry to hear that, Sarge. He should be fine with lots of rest, vitamins and hydration.
 
The state of California is more highly populated than the entire country of Canada, with highly congested areas of LA and San Francisco whereas Canada is spread over 4x California's actual size; and yet their total Covid-19 deaths are only separated by 2,000+.

So did Canada **** the bed? And you take away NY/NJ and the U.S. is not even close to the top in death per capita.

For the entire month of April my office in Pittsburgh was taking calls for our cremation office in NJ because they were literally too busy to answer the phone.

Hope Sarge Jr. feels better soon.

Do you even have any idea how many attended? Approximately 600,000.

Now do the 'protests', we'll wait.

NJ & NY, a shining example of what not to do re: that pesky 'European Virus'.

The heat from fires at the protests kills the virus
 
Isn't it funny how Tibs has resorted to quoting random strangers on Twitter to find material to support his lamebrain ideas.

Wait, are you daring to call into question the unimpeachable veracity of one Jennifer Bentey, uhh, Janice Benderay, ehhh, Jennifer Bundtcake?

It seems that the main predictor of China Virus transmission and death rates is population density.

i think it might be as related to govt funding for Covid

It seems like any time you test large numbers of people you get a whole bunch who test positive. For examples, hundreds of kids testing positive for the virus with a few days of arriving at a college. Does that make sense? Has there ever been a virus in the history of the world that spread to that many people that fast?

Here's the rub though...MOST OF THEM ARE NOT SICK! No symptoms. Anyone hear of a hospitalization at a university lately?

I am generally not a conspiracy theorist but something really ****** up going on right now. Is it false positives? Is it the fact that tons more people are walking around with this already or have had it for a month or two and are currently testing positive? Because otherwise a lot of this just makes no logical sense.

I don't know what it is but eventually we will find out that something is really screwy with these numbers. Mark my words.

Something stinks, and we've all been smelling it for months now. It's kind of hard to reconcile really, that our people in many powerful positions would politicize this thing in such a way to the effect that it's taken such a toll on so many people's lives, most importantly our future generation(s).

I mean, here's Joe Biden's Twitter right after the conclusion of the RNC tonight:

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">180,000 people have died from this COVID crisis. And the heartbreaking truth is that it didn't have to happen this way.</p>— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) <a href="https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1298816001497108480?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 27, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

How else would it have happened Joe? I remember you calling Trump a racist when he shut down travel from China. So what exactly would you have done? Mr. Hindsight Basement Empty Suit VP?

Oh yeah, and keep comparing it to Ebola like you keep thinking Americans are idiots.

Check the numbers. More Americans have died the past four months than any four month period in US history.

The only conspiracy has been the bizarre, inconsistent, topsy-turvy federal response to this pandemic.
 
We got the message last night- the board decided to have us START the school year in person. We will be in person for the first 2 weeks and then the board will look at the numbers and vote again for the following 2 weeks. I’m cool with it. Kids need to be in school. The kids who opted for virtual will be locked into virtual for the first 9 weeks regardless of what else happens.

Here you go Tibsy:

"The large spike in deaths in April 2020 corresponds to the coronavirus outbreak in New York and the Northeast, after which the number of excess deaths decreased regularly and substantially"

Your unrepresentative sample of European countries failed so you change that to an unrepresentative (and obscure) sample of states. Lockdowns and restrictions work in containing the spread of contagious disease. Is it your argument that people being in close proximity to each other is unrelated to the spread of a contagious disease? What is your logical explanation for that? How would you explain it to South Korea?

Yes, I am earning my regular wages. What does that have to do with anything?

As usual you miss the point entirely. I'm not suggesting the virus itself is a conspiracy.

Of course, but he doesn't want to get your point. Troll's gonna troll.

Forgot about this for a minute. The moron has this type of ridiculous judgment that just goes unchecked:



Again Joe, how? Want to provide any details on that ridiculously vague platitude (you actually had to look down at your notes for) the American people deserve a little more detail on?

Well gee, Joe can cure cancer and he didn't do it during his 40 years in Congress or 8 years as VP?

So how many people did he kill exactly?
 
So this morning, I’m on my way to work. I wanted to stop at a Kwik Shop to get a Diet Pepsi. Masks are required. There is a sign on the door that says authorities will be called and you will face prosecution if you enter without a mask. So as in going down the road, I realized I left 2 of my masks at home. The other 2 were in my car- and I’m driving my husband’s car. I couldn’t find my emergency mask I keep in my school bag. Then I realized I would t be able to get into work without a mask. I’m in panic mode. I was too close to work to turn around and go back home. So I get to the convenience store and found my mask in another pocket of my bag.

I never have been terrified of going to jail because of not wearing a mask...but today I was. What a ****** up world.
