So you think (and you are ok with it) only a few thousand will die and that those few thousand and their families prefer death over getting unemployment? What makes you think its just going to be a few thousand? You do realize there are more than a few thousand poor americans with underlying health issues right? What experience do you have with being poor? I grew up poor so I think I can speak better to their mindset than you.Youre obviously not worried about poor americans. They are the ones getting hit the hardest. They are the ones with underlying conditions due to inadequate health care. So you claim to be a progressive but you think like these dumbasses that say let the virus kill who it may while we go to work? No I wont shut up and yes I will die when its my time.Obviously another retarded Drumpfbot. You ever see the flu kill this many people this quickly? Can you even imagine how many people would dead right now if we hadnt shut down?![]()
COVID-19 China: Nation fights second wave of resurgent virus as cases grow
A total of 108 new coronavirus cases were reported in mainland China on Sunday, up from 99 a day earlier, marking the highest daily tally since March 5nationalpost.com
Aside from the fact that you can certainly multiply any official numbers by at least ten when they come out of China, you simply cannot beat the exponent of increase when it comes to this little bio-demon.
A single mishap in one community defeats 999 successful preventions and will continue to do so all day long until the entire populace has been exposed. Covid-19 wins....I said this already. You have an option....stay home and starve to death or accept the fact that exponsure is inevitable. I'm not trying to sound insensitive I'm trying to knock some sense into the liberal nonsense that some super group effort can prevail.....IT CANNOT. There is no such thing as a late response. With this thing it was already too late with patient zero.
Gavin Newsome is an ass splinter numbskul....but he's getting this one thing right.... instead of talking about how to extend the shutdown he's talking about how to restart the economy with the new normal.... YES...this is the conversation that we must have. Going to work will not just be punching in....it will be getting your temp checked also. Eating out will feature waiters and waitresses with PPE not just staff uniforms...all grocery stores will have cashiers behind plexiglass shields...so on and so forth.
God willing the warm weather will make some kind of impact....it seems to discourage the spread. I wonder if the ultraviolet frequencies are effective...they are more prevalent in warm weather because the light ray angles are more direct.
Stay healthy if you can.
JO
Sweden hasn't shut down....
This is all media fabricated on terrible assumptions with no statistical backing
Looks like a new strain of the flu to me. It's a corona virus, we know what those are.
People need to stop pretending like this is an apocolypse. There is no reason not to shut down every year for flu season if you're going to let this rile you up.
Or just a sane progressive who is worried about poor americans not yuppie concerns?
You want us to all lock ourselves away for a few months and eat huge losses in GDP?
OK boomer
Shut the fuck up and die
So you think poor people are better off losing 5% of GDP, their jobs, and more likely than not no unemployment check. Because a few thousand of them might die? We're a nation of 320 million
Yes just like people die so we can go faster on the highway, people will have to die so we can stay open for flu season
Welcome to being an adult
Again you don't take care of poor people as a society, you have to let them work so they can stay afloat. You can't shut down everything on them, we do not have a social safety net that would make this quarantine in any way moral.
You are concerned for your own yuppie bullshit, not poor people. Fuck off you pretend progressive ****. You're not even a liberal. You want orwellian measures over the flu
Tens of thousands could die, it isn't substantively different than flu season. Where are you going to draw the line? If it's here again the flu is worthy.
Again same concept with our highways
Allowing sugary drinks to be sold
Nicotine
Alcohol
It's a free country before this I would have hoped the flu couldn't bring us to our knees and just give up all our rights. Talking about apps to track us and federalized healthcare records with NO PUBLIC OPTION. Insanity
