factor in wind and you could be getting a blast of Wuhan Flu

that is why my friend is adamant about blocking off her sidewalk when she is outside. When you are on a 1/2 acre lot with a huge house it doesnt leave a lot of room for a front yard

He’s probably got what friends of mine refer to as chemo brain.

Apparently, having been on chemo can really affect your personality. These friends attest to it having watched family members go through chemo and I saw it in a friend who had been on it.

Regardless, maybe it’s time for him to hang up the *Closed* sign or find someone else to take over the business.

What has that got to do with anything I posted to you?

I am not going to engage in some 7th grade debate club bullshit with you are any other clown.

People didn’t live like sardines in skyscrapers back then so much. People weren’t flying around the world in a matter of hours spreading measles. But carry on.

Yes that is right. I was saying they actually lowered the death forecast in the middle of what was suppose to be our peak week of death.

I am not keeping up but he was on a trial and went off of it due to side effects

Not sure he is on Chemo.

But that same can be said if the cancer goes to the brain.

We’ve cut back on the calories. Saves from going to the store every other day like some.

I agree. As the years come and go more rapidly, the time left becomes ever more precious.

Lol, he’s run right down the list of every FB argument. It’s the same old thing everyday. He must have drawn the short straw today 😂

Well, there is a couple of trillion dollars more in the system now...so it might go up. A lot. But that’s going to take months.

Earnings and forecasts are going to be scary, or simply not made.

And when the dust settles in China, we will find them in bad shape. Forget about Europe.

Many governors, including ours, is keeping churches open. Abbott is quickly losing this vote.

I went ahead and ordered a pack using PayPal — that 20% shipping rate was a b*tch, though. Hopefully worth it, since all I have right now are T shirts.

I just read the whole thread. I have never before seen such negativity and fear.

Or she could pay the mortgage for all that $$$$. Or feed the homeless. Or buy some groceries for the little old lady down the street.

“When. measles was killing people in the first 60 years of the last century it was a pandemic. There was no vaccine. We did not shut down anything”

There was massive herd immunity. Only half a million cases per year in the US. We have more than that of CCP-19, in just weeks, even with all the mitigation efforts. And there were plenty of isolations and quarantines, for many diseases. It was routine. We’re all in isolation or in quarantine at the same time due to the fast moving nature of this virus and the speed of modern travel.

Of those half million, about 400 to 500 died. So about the same lethality as the flu, 0.1%. We have 3-4 times that dying every day from CCP-19. Over 30 times as many in the last few weeks have died from CCP-19 as died in a year from measles. Since the last time I posted these stats to you, more than a whole measles-year’s deaths from CCP-19 have been posted on the tracking sites.

You can verify everything I said if you don’t believe me. But if you are just going to ignore it and repost your nonsensical claims, do yourself a favor and go back to the many FluBro threads.

Because Texas is a conservative state and doesn’t have all those demonrat congresscritters living there who might need medical care. Some are more equal than others.

Barely 6” between them. Nowhere close to 6’.
