“At this time, the United States is seeing what very well may be the peak in deaths from the latest human Coronavirus, also known as COVID-19.”
Or it is not the peak, it could just be the beginning.
We really don’t know.
We really don’t know how many people it killed in China. Combined with flu numbers, it will have to really pick up to catch 2018.
Come on man, dontcha know that the only deaths that matter are from the China virus?
“we went through this same hysteria with the Swine Flu epidemic of 1976 “
WRONG!
If you’re not a senior with previously existing health condition, you probably have nothing to worry about for yourself.
However, it appears you can have it, display no symptoms, and spread it to a senior with previously existing health conditions.
We had better be controlled for anything and everything that causes deaths anywhere near and above covid-19 numbers.
Over-eating. Under-exercising. Smoking. Medical procedures. Accidents. Drinking. DUI. Suicide.
Better block us, penalize us and ankle-bracelet us to protect us against all dangerous activities.
No more trampolines and swimming pools, elective cosmetic surgeries, alcohol sales, chain and circular saws, off-roading, ocean swimming, driving over 35 mph...so many possibly deadly things!
Uncle Sam, please save us!!!
The next time one of these fake epidemics is sprung on us, we ought to immediately seize all media outlets and the salaries of government employees and confiscate all their paychecks. The First Amendment obviously doesn’t apply to the rest of us, so why should these groups, responsible for destroying our livelihoods, remain fat and happy, profiting from the disaster they manufactured?
228,000 suicides. That number will soar.
Medical mistakes kill hundreds of thousands of Americans annually.
Bet healthcare professionals kill more people than WuFlu this year, too...
Flubros never give up. I’ll give you that.
At some point soon they are going to have to open the economy or the cure will be worse than the disease.
Also at some point in the near future CorornaVirus deaths will far surpass the flu.
Context BUMP! Cause of death recording BUMP Amplification by media and strength of platform BUMP! Lots of variables BUMP!
During the lock down I see a population boom!!
Getting in a panic over COVID-19 deaths is like getting in a panic over AR-15 deaths. The media plays up the evil nature of the non-human thing to conveniently detract from the obvious fact that in the US we all have a choice of good diet, good exercise, good lifestyle choices, avoidance of alcohol, tobacco, drugs(legal and illegal), sugar and promiscuous sex and other bad lifestyle choices.
But COVID-19 is scary in the same sense that AR-15s are scary. They are especially scary if they have antropomorphism.
You flu bros talk like this is over with. It’s not even close. NY state may just now be hitting it’s peak, and the middle of the country has a month to go yet. Wait about 4 months and then start counting the deaths. Hopefully, they will be low since they are starting to release some drugs that may work.
Wait, huh?... Why don't you just 68,423 and counting?
They could exhume some bodies to get the numbers up...or just count every 4th person in the cemetery as a CoVid 19 casualty.
