For most people that’s true - no worse than the flu. It’s the other 20% of the infected population that’s collapsing healthcare systems around the world.

Soldiers are, on the whole, not doctors.
Guardsmen in tents with, on the whole, patients with mild cases.
The serious cases are loading up the ICUs.

In a sense ... yeah, it’s the flu. With >10x the lethality. With >4x the transmission rate.
Yeah, most people who get it will get by fine.
If flu kills 80,000/yr, then simple math shows this “flu” will kill >1,000,000/yr without “social distancing” and medical heroics.

It’s not “just the flu”. Anyone who thinks it is, is an innumerate moron.

Amazing how many people don’t grasp:
Sometimes dramatic/difficult/expensive action is required to maintain the status quo.
Proper mitigation of a major threat shows no apparent results (see Y2K).

President Trump is currently in the 2nd hour of his CV-19 press conference. This isn’t the 😷 flu given the mortality projections. O’Keefe blew this one hard.

Sorry, but exactly how would they even know? Second, their instructions are to minimize the situation whenever dealing with the general public.

Interesting...showing the actual testing procedure. If test positive what is the protocol from there? Thanks for posting. Thanks to James O’Keefe.

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?

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.

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 wonder which was worse, World War 2 or this? Seems that people didn’t panic this much during the war and if you were a soldier or civilian in Europe or Asia at the time, you didn’t huddle in a corner all day long panicking.

The baby boomers are the first generation to think they have the right and the obligation to live forever.

It must be true since Project Veritas has some low ranking National Guard enlisted person who was on site maybe less than a week, saying it is just a flu and the fact we have so many people here saying it is just a flu.

Forget the data coming from Europe, those must be backward countries with failed heath care systems.

So after watching President Trump and Vice President Pence today leading the march stating we need to take this virus seriously and that 100,000 to 200,000 people will die over the next two months. They also stated if we do not act 1.5 million to 2 million something people will die. President Trump does not believe this is just a flu.

A person who is President should be wise enough not to be fool into believing this is something serious. If this is just a flu, President Trump has destroyed America for a flu. That would make the President a gullible leader.

When I voted for President Trump I voted for someone who I believe was a wise person that would lead the nation. Not a leader that would lead us off a cliff.

We will find out over the next 8 weeks if this is just a flu.

I am feeling dark right now, but here are the questions.

Will we all (who believe this a deadly virus) be laying broken at the bottom of a cliff for believing the President and the data?

Will we be able to trust sites like Project Veritas if this not just a flu?

Will the next 8 weeks effect President Trump re-election?

Can you (just the flu believers) support a President who lead the country off a cliff for a flu?

How do I justify voting for the President in Nov if this is just a flu?

How many people need to die for this not to be a flu?

Note: I do not watch main stream media.

Are we all being played like a fiddle?

How much of this data from both sides, people are using is propaganda from another country to split Trump’s base?

Tin Foil hat here:
Are some accounts posting in the last couple of months dead accounts that were hack to come a live again?

Yeah.. 2 to 3 times the death of what an influenza would be. Just the flu?

They quoted the death rate on Hannity’s show as 0.66%.

Let’s put that in perspective:

Than 1 in 151 cases.

If unemployment hits 30%...that’s 45 in 151.

A study conducted in 2017 found that a 10% increase in unemployment would shorten the average life span of the population by 1.5 years.

We’re killing more people than we’re saving.

Project Veritas always nails it.

https://healthimpactnews.com/2020/stop-the-fear-mongering-12-medical-scientists-speak-out-on-covid19-responses/

The current situation is an engineered takedown of the world economy to bring about forced inoculation of everyone. And there are some POS on this site who will support it.
