Yep. The death rate of the flu is 0.1%. COVID is around 1.2%.I dont know about hospital stay but the death rate is not 10 times greaterThe death rate is at least 10x higher and the potential hospital stay is twice as long.It is a virus that can kill weak or elderly people just like the fluYet another dumbass Trumpette who thinks that COVID is like the flu.What's the Dim long term strategy for the flu?The GOP and Trump have their thumbs up their assess as usual. This virus shows no signs of slowing down and the GOP response to this is “Derp. Meh. What does this have to do with sucking corporate lobbyist dick? What’s in it for us?”
They’re fucking useless.
The democrats House Bill is a step in the right direction, but it lacks any long term strategy. It’s just a band-aid. It doesn’t address how to stop the virus for the months to come.
Now some governors have more effective strategies for their states. Social distancing and contact tracing are key, but without real federal help, it won’t amount to much.
We are on our own folks.
what is the difference?
indeed the two virus’ seem to kill the same demographics - old people and those weakened by other physical conditions
Diseases aren’t defined by the demographics they kill.
