I think the biggest fear in DC right now is a 28,000 DOW and all that will entail.
Ooooohhhh nnnnoooo, we’re all going to die predicts another self acclaimed expert. We need to name or number these apocalyptic predictions to properly keep track of them and to later mock and disparage the “experts”.
The second wave will be worse that the first wave that killed meeelyuns of Americans. ROTFLMFreeAmericanAO!
Get a metal 'isolating case' and put your phone in it before you leave home. If you have an emergency and need it, then, 'break silence.'
2nd wave is guaranteed. The oligarchy is out of time. They either take over the planet with a police state or they get fed to the villagers.
That's over the past three months, give or take. What will the total be come December 31?
Impossible to say unless testing really takes off. Right now there have been roughly 1.1 million cases identified in the U.S., less than one-third of one percent of the population. There is no vaccine. What percentage do we need to reach to achieve heard immunity?
Lets start with the presumption this is circulating long before March — I would say November. Lets assume that there was no social distancing (which has been shown to be ineffective at mitigation). There are ample demonstrations of strange illness December, January and February. Then assume that 80 - 90% are asymptomatibn. So lets just say we are off by a factor of 100. That means 50M - 100M cases are resoled with antibodies. That puts us right in the begnining of herd immunity.
I know I made three assumptions, however, we also know common things are common, and this is LRI...which extinguish with the onset of summer weather — we are seeing that in the Southern Tier of states.
Put it all together — I think we are approaching low level herd immunity and favorable climate.
But I am just a dumb anesthesiologist. No doubt I will hear a million statements of what an idiot I am. And that may be true — but I am right an what I have said.
The word boomerang must be on the list of new words to use when talking about the virus. I’ve been hearing it for the last two days.
interesting to see how the anarchist radicals of the 60s who rejected authoirty and anyone telling them to do anything, are now the scared snowflake dictator totalitarians demanding people do what they want because of their fears
THIS is the transformation Alinsky could only dream of.
The Deep State wants to shut down Trump rallies. Or blame an outbreak on them. So there will be non stop gaslighting about a “second wave.”
A lot of people in America cheering the virus on ... hoping (and no doubt praying for more deaths.
I agree. Even if we suffer up to 500,000 dead, we still shouldn’t close things down.
Can you imagine the uproar if they tried to shut things down again?
I have no doubt that there will be a "second wave" of Kung Flu cases. Once people emerge from their germophobic hermit phase and return to normal life, many of them will finally be exposed to the virus. And, given that most flu vaccines are, at best, about 50% effective, even a new "life-saving" vaccine won't help that much.
-------
What I find troubling in this age of Kung Flu is how many younger people have become dictatorial towards older folks regarding this whole thing. I know of at least 2 cases where a person in their mid-to-late 70s has been practically forbidden by their children from leaving their house. Worse yet, the parents are probably in better physical shape than the dictator children!
Agreed. Already are.
Tell me more. What works and where can I get one?
B.
Definitely option B.
