What I actually said

Personally, I think thats too high, around 30,000 seems more likely, but I don't want to be the one to call Trump a liar


I think you have me confused with this guy

Ha ha ha...

And all you have done is screamed over and over that this is not like the flu.

Didn't we already have this conversation?

oh yeah

You know what you people are like?

Like someone sitting in the middle of a train track, refusing to believe a train is coming.

I am imploring you to get up off the tracks and move.

No, you say, "impossible, there is no train coming, I refuse to believe that"


No, seriously, get up off your *** and move, its coming.

No! I refuse to believe your scaremongering!

Just turn around and LOOK! It's coming, I can see it, just turn around and look, I'm trying to save your life

NO! I refuse to look, now I'm covering my eyes, you're scaring me!I


It's rounding the bend, its coming, MOVE! Can't you hear it blowing its whistle??

NO! I'm putting my fingers in my ears! Stop scaring me! lalalalala


Move or you will get run over! What will it take to convince you?

My graphs say its impossible a train could be coming along these tracks, I believe them over any old train whistle


My god the ground is shaking! The rails are vibrating, you must know what is about to hit you, for the last time, MOVE!

NOPE, FEARMONGER, TRAINS DONT EXIST IN MY WORLD, IM NOT MOVING!



and you people wonder why Im yelling
 
Are you trying to prove how stupid you are? If yes, congratulations - proven more conclusively than any global warming model, ever.

If no, seek help. Picking a random quote that has literally nothing to do with the topic of discussion because you hate Trump?

You're sick. Unfortunately, unlike those infected with COVID-19, you have no hope of recovery.

One of my other favorite Trump quotes, "The Republicans don’t win, and that’s because of potentially illegal votes, which is what I’ve been saying for a long time. I have no doubt about it. And I’ve seen it, I’ve had friends talk about it when people get in line that have absolutely no right to vote and they go around in circles. Sometimes they go to their car, put on a different hat, put on a different shirt, come in and vote again. Nobody takes anything. It’s really a disgrace what’s going on.

"The disgrace is that -- voter ID. If you buy, you know, a box of cereal, you have a voter ID. Well, over here, the only thing you don’t is if you’re a voter of the United States. A voter in the United States of America. I think it’s a disgrace what’s going on. Really a disgrace."

Lastly, I would encourage you to read about, understand and begin using Occam's Razor in your decision making process. You're welcome in advance.
 
Hell, for all anyone knows, the reason this has been a bad flu season with 3 separate outbreaks could well be that this virus was here last fall and that many of the deaths attributed to the flu could have been Covid-19 deaths. Nobody knows for certain.

Well given they are calling all deaths COVID deaths, even when they aren't, I won't be surprised if soon someone suggests those who died of AIDS in the 80s actually were just the earliest victims of CV19.

Once again, your stupid comment has exactly nothing to do with this thread topic, at all, and you bring up the irrelevant after being punched in the face on your lying, false narrative on what Trump said and did as compared to what the CDC and medical experts were saying at the same time, but I will nonetheless respond.

First, I thought you (D)ims were worried about foreign interference in elections. Guess not, since only in-person voting and voter ID are the easiest way to prevent actual foreign interference.

Second, as to Occam's razor, you are either a lying, corrupt, disgusting faker who inexplicably wandered into this thread after five years of silence, or some performance art genius with far too much spare time and who is trying to fool us into believing that you are in fact this dumb, this incapable of maintaining a train of thought, this dishonest, and so confused by facts that you cannot stick to the topic of a thread literally depicted at the top of the page.

So you are either elftard, once again lying about that fact, or Joe Biden. I go with the former.

Those sure are a lot of words to say, "I don't comprehend what you're trying to tell me".
 
Still waiting for some non-conspiracy explanation as to how China allowed millions of its citizens to travel into and out of Wuhan for weeks between December 1, 2019 and January 23, 2020, while the virus raged, and has basically zero reported cases in Beijing and Shanghai, combined population 44 million, citizens packed on top of each other like rats, terrible pollution, sanitation vastly worse than New York's.

You are in fact getting me more and more to think that maybe, just MAYBE, you are Joe Biden.

Nahh, just a blithering idiot.

If my post was too difficult for you to understand, have a 2nd grader explain it to you, elfie.

Who's this elfie person?
 
Besides the personal attacks, is there anything else you can share?

I guess you think SIL should post some irrelevant quotation from Nancy Pelosi, circa 2010.

"We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it."

Hah, got you there, elfie!!
 
Only through the actions taken with social distancing and stay at home will it be "just like the flu". As far as how fast and far it spreads it is not "just like the flu" in the matter of how left unchecked it would overwhelm ICU units it is not the flu. IF it ends up "just like the flu" then we have done the right things.

We'll never know that, will we? Because the projections of where it would go WITH social distancing seem to be very inaccurate. So we really have no idea what would have happened without it. Or with less drastic measures.

It will be interesting to get an idea of what portion of the population has already had it and was asymptomatic or had very mild symptoms.

I think Sweden and Japan will be interesting to see what their numbers look like.

Switzerland sits at 95 deaths per million versus 37 for us. Japan sits at an amazing .7 which seems almost to good to be true or they are not testing much at 365 per million tested.
 
Governor Blackface has been waaaay ahead of the curve here:

Yes it will. Won't post the whole thing because it's long, but interesting take here:

https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/04/coronavirus-response-sweden-avoids-isolation-economic-ruin/

We’ve posed these simple questions to many highly trained infectious-disease doctors, epidemiologists, mathematical disease-modelers, and other smart, educated professionals. It turns out that, while you need proof beyond a reasonable doubt to convict a person of theft and throw them in jail, you don’t need any actual evidence (much less proof) to put millions of people into a highly invasive and burdensome lockdown with no end in sight and nothing to prevent the lockdown from being reimposed at the whim of public-health officials. Is this rational?

Voter id should be required... but then everyone should be automatically registered to vote as well...its a trade off...

There is no excuse to not have a rock solid way to tie individuals to votes to totally eliminate any chance of vote tampering... its easy and plans are well documented...
