Thread #16 is below and it ran for two days...

“Since you are concerned about my malpractice and have several lawyers you know, perhaps you might want to not libel me...”
ROFLMAO
You clearly know nothing about libel law.
Let’s have your name and the name of your practice...then we’ll talk.
If restaurants are losing business / shutting down, I assume the wholesale food biz has to push the stuff out somewhere, especially shelf life items.
I don’t agree with your premise that you have the right to tell me when to post and when not to post. You’ll need to think hard about that, maybe take some vitamins to help you along.
Now go back and look at the substance of what I did post, like my responses to this article and thread on the corona virus:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3824882/posts
Of the Chinese government, the media and health care industry executives, which do you trust the most?
Thanks for posting this. So I will show my arithmetic for the pearl clutchers:
764 (+) / 10,000 tests = 7.6% incidence
42 deaths / 764 (+) = 5.51% rate (probably spuriously high as sample is still somewhat small. BUT....
5.5% of 7.6% = 0.3% population death rate (Deaths/total tests)
Even if the (+) rate is 10% transmission, that makes the true death rate 0.5%, tracking I nine with South Korea.
The data from Washington.
“5.5% of 7.6% = 0.3% population death rate (Deaths/total tests)”
A completely misleading and meaningless stat. What if they just test everybody? Will some people magically get better or something? Or will the testing kill some, instead?
“42 deaths / 764 (+) = 5.51% rate”
42 died out of 764 positives. Gee, that’s a lot closer to Italy stats than to South Korea.
I’m only voicing my thoughts with regard to the meta-narrative.
Before asking me to prove my “point,” you should be able to articulate what you suppose my point is. I don’t think you’ve thought about it carefully enough while reading what I posted.
I’ll make it easy for you. Here’s my point, as summarized already: SOME OF OUR ASSUMPTIONS MIGHT BE WRONG BECAUSE THEY’RE BASED ON TRUSTING SOURCES WHICH CAN REASONABLY BE IDENTIFIED AS LESS THAN TRUSTWORTHY.
Only thing I didn’t agree with was when he said only the Army Corp of Engineers could rework a building into a hospital in a short time. New York is full of construction companies. It also made me think of Trump and Wolman ice skating rink. Ahead of schedule and under budget. Trump Company could get it done. Army Corp of Engineers would take weeks just planning and shuffling paperwork. Do we still have Seabees? They’re experts at building stuff quick. It’s one of those things that needs a complete rethinking like Trump and his task force is doing in other areas. Look at what Extreme Home Makeover does in a couple of weeks. Pull in some private sector people. We know how to get shit done.
I know some lawyers who have dealt with Drs like that in malpractice suits.
I think he is a Dr.
Pretty Full of himself. I think he needs to back up his claim of having three certifications because he is holding himself out to be a licensed Professional . He is using those three certifications to give himself gravitas so that one will listen to him more than someone else who doesn’t have them....
As he states WITH AUTHORITY OF A MEDICAL LICENSE AND THREE CERTIFICATIONS that Rudy Gobert has a cold when I said he tested positive for the virus.
You have a very strong desire to vent cruel, misplaced frustrations on people you don’t know who make carefully considered comments.
Stop it. Get some help!
Omg, how hard is this anyway? Everyone has to have their say, no one is changing their mind, it only serves to bog down the thread.
(I first thought of the SNAP lobster buyers...)
Yeah, restaurants aren’t buying.
Gonna be a lot of problems from less demand for a lot of things.

26 residents test positive for coronavirus in CT, all public schools to close
WFSB Staff
Posted 40 min ago
HARTFORD, CT (WFSB) - The number of confirmed coronavirus cases in Connecticut is on the rise.
State officials confirmed 26 residents have now tested positive for COVID-19 in Connecticut.
Governor Ned Lamont signed an executive order on Sunday making all public schools in the state closed for two weeks...
Governor Ned Lamont said there are now 16 confirmed cases in Fairfield County, 4 cases in Litchfield County, 3 in New Haven County, and 3 in Hartford County.
I’ve given up posting in any coronavirus threads other than these 17 and counting. You end up like one of the victims of a “group of teens” with a 12 person pile on.
So your position is, people can post on these threads, but if anyone even hints at questioning the conventional wisdom or criticizing the deep state, they must be silenced immediately.
I can’t agree with that position.
“Before asking me to prove my “point,” you should be able to articulate what you suppose my point is.”
Um, when I articulated what I thought your point was, your response was “You lie!”
Why should anybody articulate your points for you?
You are just totally full of crap. You should have the fart doctor take a look.
You can only use population death rate as a total if you test EVERYONE.
7.6% incidence of those tested, not population as a whole.
So you prove your inadequacy in epidemiology. Care to explain the 9300 other cases of URI (I assume we did not test asymptomatic cases) that have the same symptoms BUT are not CoVID? It is hardly misleading, it shows what the penetrance is in the population, the transmissibility. Unless of course you either believe we know every case that exists. You, Rummychick and all the other pear clutchers can keep hoping for death and misery.
