I thought Rush expressed it appropriately.

It’s like the flu, but...

- The flu has a vaccine; Covid-19 doesn’t.

- The flu has treatment protocols; Covid-19 doesn’t.

And I could add...

- The flu has a defined season; Covid-19 doesn’t (yet).

- Some folks get a mild case; some folks get really sick; some folks die. No one knows which version has their name on it.

That’s why people are so frightened.

But your numbers are even better at proving the point I wanted to make.

Trump is right while you remain woefully behind the viral curve.

I thought the tents were for non-CoVid-19 cases? Am I wrong? There could be just flu cases in the tents and the more serious Wuhan in the hospitals?

President Trump is going off of Fauci.

Keep in mind they originally said 12 million people, then 6 million, then 1 million, then 500k and now 100 to 240k. This is all in 30 days.

Notice a pattern?

The hospital tents in Seattle are to be used for non-covid patients.

While I haven’t read the responses, I’m relatively certain there are still a few retards here on FR that agree with the Guardsman.

And we’ll call them to account in the future.

Who here is getting their information from the media let alone the MSM?

Not me.

I get mine from Trump, Pence and their team and published data on infections and deaths. I can’t speak for the MSM but I seriously doubt if they are missing out on their chance to push the Orange Man Bad shtick 24/7. Anybody who listens to them gets just what they deserve.

Saw a video on the Drudge website earlier (it’s since been taken down) of a news station that had a video of a tour inside a hospital that they titled as a “medical battlefield. What I saw in the video were 2 patients who were both sitting upright in their gurney. Far from a medical battlefield. This virus thing is so over hyped. Notice these things ALWAYS surface during an election year? And no, I don’t frequent the Sludge....today the first time I’ve been there in at least 3 months.

I’m not sure what the truth is. But we aren’t gonna learn it from a NY NatGuard dogface at a checkpoint.

> They are talking in the 100,000 dead range in the next 2 weeks. Therefore in 2 weeks we are going to know if destroying the best economy in history was necessary.

Ok, so in two weeks when this massive fraud is exposed, then what ?

I guess we will all be too busy trying to find work to do anything about it ...

Its just a flu, but are not all flu’s are the same is the point missing? Of course they are all different , but all viruses tend to have a curve, Corona will have a curve just like any.. else why do we say lets “flatten the curve”?

So what is the shape of the curve should be the issue. Well, since already know the first case in the USA was about 12 weeks ago , and we know ALL viruses follow a curve ( its just how steep is the issue), at 12 weeks into the curve , any curve for any virus , that means 15 percent of all deaths would have occurred by now (unless we flatten by further, then even a larger percent has ALREADY occurred). So, since today's count is at 3,700 deaths, adding the remaining 85% to go, means the total could be 25,000 , which way way off from the chickens are falling out of the sky number of 100,000! In fact 25,000 means it will be no worse than a bad flu..

do the math yourself, integrate the area under these curves, for various viruses and see at week 12, there will be 15 percent of the deaths at that point, and that means 85% to go and for us now , thats a total of 25k... no worse than a bad flu.. unless there is some other facts that is being withheld to us

I hope he didn’t needlessly put himself at risk for this pointless story.

“Notice these things ALWAYS surface during an election year?”

This surfaced in China in 2019.
