Re: Coronavirus (political)
 

Just remember the NYT article in late April when research states New York is seeding the outbreak to other states..New Yorkers top travel destination was Florida.

I think what we are finding is spring was mild in the south, not hot...so a lot of folks were outside. As the heat has kicked in since june1, people have moved inside and that’s helped with the spread. I think in the northeast when spring was cold, people were inside...spread occurs. That’s kinda my takeaway...inside bad with people, outside not bad as long as u distance

This anti mask crap is out of control.

Unless you have a legit medical issue, and I'm guessing very few actually do, then stop being a baby and wear a damn mask, it's a minor inconvenience.

This is embarrassing. I can only hope this group was created by Russians or some other country trying to encourage dissent because if it was made by actual Americans it's super pathetic.

Their entire platform is based on dividing people based on race, class, gender, etc. Here is one of the countless examples.

Can you explain this? You have the Oregan government requiring that people wear masks based on their race. Is this how the left wants to run the country? How long do you think we'll remain a country with policies like that?

This leads me to wonder about the Chinese virus hysteria. Are these lockdowns about safety or politics? I'm sure you're going to run back down into your safe space. Thus far you've proven yourself incapable of actually giving any type of rebuttal.

This link is data from the WHO:

I hate to be that guy, partially because i really do believe that this is the event that changes America forever, and possibly collapses our government, but it would appear that as scientists gather more and more data, this really is like a different strain of the flu. Killing predominantly the elderly and those with underlying health conditions.

I guarantee you that not many people knew how many people died from the "normal flu" every year. Because i had no idea it was as many people as what it currently is. I was blown away by those numbers.

Infections

COVID-19: The first cases appeared in China in late 2019 and the first confirmed case in the United States appeared in January 2020.

Approximately 10,004,643 cases have been confirmed worldwide. There have been 2,510,323 cases in the U.S. as of June 28, 2020.*

Flu: The World Health Organization estimates that 1 billion people worldwide get the flu every year.

[B]In the U.S., for Oct. 1, 2019 – Apr. 4, 2020, the CDC estimates that there were 39 million to 56 million cases of flu.[/B] (The CDC does not know the exact number because the flu is not a reportable disease in most parts of the U.S.)
Deaths

COVID-19: There have been approximately 499,296 deaths reported worldwide. [B]In the U.S, 125,539 people have died of COVID-19, as of June 28, 2020.*[/B]

Flu: The World Health Organization estimates that 290,000 to 650,000 people die of flu-related causes every year worldwide.

[B]In the U.S., from Oct. 1, 2019 – Apr. 4, 2020, the CDC estimates that 24,000 to 62,000 people died from the flu.[/B] (The CDC does not know the exact number because the flu is not a reportable disease in most parts of the U.S.)

The COVID-19 situation is changing rapidly. Since this disease is caused by a new virus, people do not have immunity to it, and a vaccine may be many months away. [B]Doctors and scientists are working to estimate the mortality rate of COVID-19, but at present, it is thought to be substantially higher than that of most strains of the flu.[/B]

Re: Coronavirus (political)
 

Influenza/pneumonia is the #1 infectious disease killer globally and a significant health problem in developing countries. In developed world we have vaccines and access to first class healthcare so we consider it just the "flu" but the vast majority of the world views it as a major problem. I imagine until we have a vaccine coronavirus will be stressed as more than just a flu in the developed world.

I wonder now, if in light of everything going on with coronavirus, will they start counting / tracking Flu cases, or do we lockdown again this fall when flu starts hitting again along with the coronavirus.

Idk man. My best guess --- i think its hard to know how many actual cases of the flu or covid bc a lot of people who get it dont go to the hospital. If you ride it out on over the counter or go see your PCP for amoxicillin ... i dont think thats tracked.

Covid does have its own ICD code now, which should help with tracking .. but again, only for cases where people need to go to the hospital. They are projecting and estimating the number of cases.

Vaccine = thats when can treat covid like the flu.

But I think it just a matter of a year or a few years until another new virus is spawned and potentially deadlier ... that one is going to suck. Imagine an infection rate like covid with a 10% death rate for younger people .. fuck.

Re: Coronavirus (political)
 

Do you guys remember when CNN claimed that Donald Trump's statement about Hydroxychlorquine was promising was unfounded and lie? Well it looks like Trump was right and CNN and the rest of the communist media was wrong. There are many studies that proved Hydroxychlorquine was effective at treating Covid-19. There was a study of 3500 patients showed a success rate of 90%. I would love to post it for you but Google has since buried it and it is basically impossible to find. I can understand people not liking the president because of his policy or personality. But do you have to disagree with him even when he's right?
