We probably don’t even have an accurate number of how many died.


That’s part of what another article on Florida deaths is referencing. They have a reported value for COVID deaths, and an additional roughly 30% flagged for further review.

Good question. Maybe these celebrities are catching it from their hired servants. Because even at a time of self-distancing, you can’t expect celebrities to cook, clean, shop, keep themselves physically fit without personal trainers, and do their own yard work. And they need someone to be available to film them as they wax eloquent from their bath tubs in their enlightening messages to the little people.

“I am wondering how these various musicians, actors, politicians, newscasters, etc., get coronavirus.”

Ditto!

"This claims a 5% death rate?"

We won't know what the death rate is, until the cases are all resolved (deaths and recoveries).

“AAANNNNNDDDDD - another high-profile case...”

For sure. Tom Hanks bombed at the movies, saw his star fading and then claimed he had the C19 disease. Now it is Christopher Cross. Wow. I have not heard that name since, well, according to Wiki, 1980.

There are many types of corona viruses and all of them are equally brutal.

I don’t understand how a lot of well known people are coming out and videoing themselves standing up and talking about how horrible their symptoms are. I had type B flu two years ago (yes I had a flu shot) and I couldn’t stand or walk or barely talk. My husband had to literally pick me up and carry me to the car, then Pick me up and carry me to the doctor’s office. Recovery was tough.

I realize there are people, mostly older ( I am 69), that are suffering and dying with this virus. But there are also a lot of attention seeking tv/movie personalities grandstanding this thing that obviously do not have serious symptoms. Sickening.

I think some like Chris Fredo Juicy Smollet Coumo are lying and just want attention. They can’t help themselves.

Chris, where’d you pick up the virus?
“Somewhere between the moon and New York City.”

Mostly hollywood types get this virus. I mean we hear about it all day and sit around and wait for one of those types to make a little song or special phone call for us little folks.

I keep saying that I’m NOT going to panic unless Keith Richards dies of this flu...or our local Kwik Trip gas stations close - which they NEVER do - tornadoes, blizzards, major holidays, locusts, etc. ;)

(They HAVE stopped all of the self-serve food & coffee that they usually sell, but I won’t eat from a Public Trough in the first place.)

Immune system’s been compromised, at least it was for me
And I’ve not felt right since Tuesday night from the C-O-V-I-D.
Oh, corona can be quite fatal, just you wait and see.
Believe me.

It came quite far from a foreign land, no reason to pretend
And if I am right the whole damn plight’s the fault of our Chinese friends
Oh, corona can be quite fatal, just you wait and see.
Believe Fauci.
Ailing... just keep away bout 6 feet and cover your face

“The whole world should be kind to each other right now.

liberals live in such a fake world.”

How true. They never provide the fine print: Except if you are a conservative. We can never be kind to conservatives or people that have different views.

And it’s not even possible for people with the same views to be kind to each other all the time. Or even often.

The world is a hard place and there are bad people out there.

Their “utopia” only exists in their heads.

But youre right. They would slaughter us.

And that’s what makes them so dangerous.

And that’s what makes them so dangerous.
