That did that many in Korea yesterday. Yesterday afternoon.
The numbers are going to skyrocket next week—just because we can test. There are not many more cases (relatively) than there were yesterday. We will simnply know about them.
Once we get to 5,000 cases (within the next week) the media is going to freak out, They will turn on the CDC and the pols. You will see hospital CEOs freaking out.
You will see snowflakes on Social Media screaming because there is no vaccine yet.
You will see snowflakes and idiots pointing the Lysol bottles and claiming “they knew this was coming.....”
Everyone with any sense of viruses knew this was coming years ago with the publication of “Hot Spot.” If this is surprising anyone, they were not paying attention.
So, its coming. It is going to be disruptive. People are sheep. They will be herded off a cliff of “outrage.”
Free Republic isn’t doing this. No daily live thread is doing this. Its human nature when you get a bunch of fools paying more attention to Meagan and Harry than what is going on with the human condition.
Just by having this discussion, people (believers or deniers) are engaging in more intelligent conversation than 99% of the people in the country.
But, I think we can remove our “shocked” faces, and start addressing the realities of what is likely to be coming.
Yes. What you said x 100.
Trump, INHO, is making a poltical error. He should put his Surgeon General (have you even seen the guy once?) EVERY DAY before the media to take questions. Have him be the face of the response.
He should say this is our Manhattan project and he needs to be perceived as ‘above political’ and not take part in the blame game.
I don’t bother with the FR members thinking this is political. Only way it’s political is that it can kill off a good segment fo the 70 and older population and they tend to vote Republican.
Once cardiac caths and total joint arthroplasties fall off, shit's gonna get REAL in a hurry.
The present system, where many vultures feast on the pool of money designated by the government and the employers FOR PATIENT CARE cannot survive what is about to happen, IMO.
