Cracks begin to appear in the fear mongering

New study out of CALIFORNIA, of all places, shows virus isn't near as deadly as foretold.

Then why does trump have the country closed?

He doesn't, state governments do.

If only brain,

Then why does trump have the country closed?

Our liberal governor made that decision.
Not Trump.

The trump administration clearly promoted closing down. Why do you think they daily have their little updates?

He still doesn't make the decision. He can only recommend, and he mostly has been recommending opening back up which all you Karens have been bitching about from day one.
Quit being an idiotic troll.

And he recommended closing. He even has a plan for reopening.

The death rate is a red herring. Even if the death rate is a lot lower than thought this virus is extremely contagious and it is killing people a lot of people each day.

Reports are between .1 & .3% mortality.

You don't destroy an entire generation economically for that.

we don’t know the mortality rate because the vast majority of the country hasn’t been tested. As it stands the case mortality rate is 5%. No one wants to destroy the economy, but right now the only choice is to sacrifice to save lives. 2000 people are dying each day and that’s with extreme measures taken. How many people are you willing to sacrifice a day to get this economy running again?

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

But....but...but...it's a deadly worldwide pathogen that can only be stopped by destroying the economy, bankrupting working class Americans, defeating Donald Trump and bringing fourth a new Socialist Government.

Stop fucking up our narrative!!!

Well, it's a stupid narrative tailored to the stupid. Perhaps get a new one.

How do you conclude "not as deadly as foretold" --- whatever that means --- from this?
The postulation is that many people were infected and developed antibodies. People who have not been exposed, DO NOT have antibodies.

OP didn't think this one through. Or as we usually call it, "Tuesday".

it means many had it, most survived it, it didn't make national daily figures to scare everyone with. it wasn't as contagious or as threatening as is being sold. that's how.

A ton of people at all the stores this weekend, shopping for what clearly wasn't essential items. Being this is liberal loony land MN, it would stand to reason that at least half of those shoppers were liberals. Seems folks are about at their limit of this shutdown across the board. Only a minority of folks with masks.
The herd immunity will happen regardless of this insane government mandate. Which is easing as our governor has expanded essential business and the lockdown ends on May4.

Really tired of the pathetic propaganda about the elderly and putting others at risk.
The Karens can piss off.

I went to WM the other day and bought paper targets and a staple gun. Gonna go to the range tomorrow probably.

Governor opened golf courses over the weekend and other outdoor activities.
The whole point of mitigation was to keep our hospitals from being overwhelmed. That has been accomplished here. Fact is the mitigation still assumes a herd immunity, and the curve was flattened, which was the whole point. There was never talk of eradication as that is not even remotely possible until a vaccine is developed, which is no guarantee as there are always unvaccinated folks out there. Polio still exists in 3 countries.
Isolate the at risk, and the rest of us need to go about our lives. We have to live with this virus for some time to come.

twenty million to convert McCormick Place in Chicago to a hospital, not one patient has it seen. 20 fking million dollars.

As it stands the case mortality rate is 5%

That is not the mortality rate. That number is only being reported because no one has been tested. Once tests are widespread that number WILL drop BELOW 1%
More people being tested will not cause more deaths.

but more people dying of heart failure and cancer will.

I said case mortality rate. I literally said we don’t know the mortality rate because of lack of testing. Some of the top experts in the world are predicting when it’s all said and done the mortality rate will be ten times that of the flu, which again is irrelevant, because who cares what the mortality rate is when thousands are dying each day?

 

[Brain357]

you didn't watch it did you?

Course he’s extending his guidelines till April 30th. You know the guidelines states are following.

the lead on the video merely says he's extending it 30 days. it's misleading.

thousands were dying of opiods and no one fking cared. now you care?

Yeah, but, can't we keep this fear mongering going until right after the election? Please?

If far more people are shown to have already HAD the virus and not died from it...then what you should take from this study is that Covid 19 may in fact not be much more dangerous than many other strains of flu that we've dealt with without closing down our economy. If so it's something we need to learn from.

the lead on the video merely says he's extending it 30 days. that's not so. nine days is left off of that.

And clearly he has guidelines states are following.

Are u retarded? 150 people die each day on opioid overdoses

Recommending is not ordering, liar. You can recommend for a progressive to pull his head out of his ass, but you can't make them do it.

People are losing their healthcare everyday by being laid off. How many people are you
willing to sacrifice?
