The Coronavirus thread

The U.S. is on pace to see 75,000 Covid deaths in December.

So it hasn't even been a month of them trying to get rid of the Bad Orange Man and things are already completely going to ****? Good job, Coronabros.

You know what professions are seeing an increase in suicides in the U.S.? ER and ICU workers.

That's rich, not only change the subject from Japan when you get your pompous *** handed to you on a plate by Tim, but not a single word out of you about adolescent/teenage suicide (or any of the other lives that have been upended) from this ****, until you found a blurb from MSDNCMD. This is our collective shocked face:

It’s very basic math: # of deaths / 3 days X 31 days.

Yah, VERY basic Floggy math. SMGDH....the face palm is epic here.

Using that ingenious, mensa-level logic, if we take April 4, 5, and 6 deaths in New York (837, 828, and 836 deaths respectively) / 3 * 30 days New York should have seen 58,310 deaths in April. They saw 20,312.

BRILLIANT!

Keep spewing knowledge on us Flog!

I read that at 7:02 p.m., EST, to 7:04 p.m., EST, nobody died of the Chinese flu.

So 2 minutes x 30 x 24 x 31 = 0.

The crisis is over!!

Oh, okay. Now do that extrapolation for fraudulent/invalid voting ballots.

I CANNOT wait for this reply from Flog. Stephen Hawking will be stupefied...even from beyond.

Well, no ****, I tested positive. I started to feel lousy on Thanksgiving night and decided to get a test by Saturday as a precaution. I teach school. It just felt like a cold, really. No fever, I could taste food, no breathing issues. Got the call tonight it was positive. I felt better since Monday.

One weird thing, though. It also felt like I had a touch a stomach virus, too. But I had this kind of burning in my skin, from my mid back to low back. Weird. That is gone now too.
 
******* Trump.

Thank God a dementia-ridden old man has a "plan." That'll fix everything.

Masks of all sorts. Popcorn masks,barbecue masks, mask scampi, coconut masks,masks with little flowers, ear masks and eye masks.

Guy can't do ****. The whole ******* country has been wearing this bs for months and his idea is more masks while shutting the country down. I guess the magic money fairy will pay everyone's bills indefinitely.

The **** was just a political weapon to them anyway. Though ole dingbat Joe is probably high risk, but no more than a bunch of others things at his age.

Heard about the stomach thing. Glad to hear you're feeling better. I'm sure a good 75% of us have already had this thing (many not even knowing it).

Floggy ain't taking no chances though:

More people are wearing masks than ever before yet infections continue to spike. It would seem if they were very effective this would not be the case. I don’t know anyone where I live who doesn’t wear masks when asked but infections are still spiking. I’m not suggesting they do nothing but it seems they aren’t all that helpful.

Yet the plan is...wait for it...masks.

I’m not gonna lie. Something is floating around.
My aunts father in law dropped dead from covid two weeks ago.

My parents friend also dropped dead.
I’ve had a couple cousins end up in ICU. So I don’t want to say it’s a hoax, but I just ask you guys to make good judgement while out there.

I tested positive back in May.
Got the stomach thing, super lethargic.

Some react different.
 
Grandma knitted masks are the best!

So 75,000 Covid deaths in December is preposterous? Go on record with a reasonable estimate. We’ll revisit January 1st.

You play stupid games and win stupid prizes. Pas moi. Predicting COVID deaths - as we've ween from the UK, Univ of Washington, and you and your ilk...doesn't really ever work out.

I'll leave being astronomically stupid to you.
 
Speaking of astronomically stupid, Flog will read this and jump up and down clicking his heels together in glee. The rest of us? This ****'s getting insane. Don't fail to notice the PROTESTS ARE ALLOWED PART. Tyranny unfolding in front of our damned eyes.

LA Mayor Bans Unnecessary Walking As Part Of New COVID-19 Restrictions

Democratic Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti issued a new emergency order Wednesday that bans unnecessary “travel on foot” as he warns the city is nearing a “devastating tipping point” in their fight against COVID-19.

“Our city is now close to a devastating tipping point, beyond which the number of hospitalized patients would start to overwhelm our hospital system, in turn risking needless suffering and death,” Garcetti wrote in the order. “These unfortunate facts about the spread of COVID-19 in our City mean that we must resume some of the more restrictive measures we instituted in the Spring.”

The order prohibits “all travel, including, without limitation, travel on foot, bicycle, scooter, motorcycle, automobile, or public transit,” with limited exceptions.

Individuals who work in the healthcare and news industry are allowed to travel, along with individuals going to grocery stores, gas stations and other locations deemed essential.

Garcetti also ordered all residents living in the city “to remain in their homes,” forcing businesses that require in-person attendance to shut down. Gatherings that include individuals from more than one household are prohibited.

However, the order has exceptions for a host of activities including “outdoor faith-based services”
and for those “participating in an in-person outdoor protest while wearing a face covering, maintaining social distancing, and observing the Los Angeles County Protocol for Public Demonstrations.”

Coward. So you’ll mock Fauci, Redfield, U of W warnings and estimates but you won’t go on record of where they are wrong? You’re pointless.

“It will all magically go away” was stupid, but you praise that man.

There hasn't been an accurate prediction made on COVID to date. From millions will die, to we will slow the curve in just 15 days, to this will be gone by summer, to vaccines won't be available till 2021, to all the predictive models being VASTLY wrong. Why do you think I would want to or could make a prediction on this? The fascinating thing is you believe you CAN, despite every so called "expert" being wrong.

I don't need to go on record "where they are wrong" because it's all out there on the internet for you to peruse. From Fauci to the CDC to the WHO to the modelers...the data's out there if you wanna type from your bubble and do some research.

Yep, I praise the man for being realistic, doing the right things, and for Operation Warp Speed and having multiple vaccines ready to go, for the rapid development of PPE to fix Obama's depleted national stockpile, to getting commercial companies to step up and so rapidly increase our ability to do nation-wide testing. He wasn't perfect, and no leader ever has been in a time of turmoil. What is lunatic idiocy is your side denying all of those feats.
