Shoot.. This thread is becoming a bitter place to read.. Thought it was for information... My goodness, class envy, stereotyping, and just out and out echo-chambering. Yesterday was ‘gardening’ - at least a poster sent folks to Ms. Wisconsin’s gardening threads (which, yes - I’m a follower)... Post information - and 3, or 6 months/etc. down the line everyone can chime in “I told you so!”... Back to reading and observing...
Are you kidding me?
A million dead and no one blinks .
Its big of you to kill off a million people and not care .
“Virgin field epidemics never infect everyone exposed.”
There is a human cohort that will never get sick due to genetic variation.
In all cases, even the Black Plague, or when small pox stalked the earth.
But one need only look at the American Indian population to know that is often a small cohort.
American Indians lost 90% of their population to small pox.
got a revised one to combine here:
the original medical articles explaining how a corona virus was modified, intentionally, and that is could also jump from bats to humans

My wife’s CVS (N CT) did get some TP this morning—of course it was gone in a couple of hours—but still a good sign.
High number of ICU beds .
“People do not understand what herd immunity means.”
That much is certain.
I wish I knew, and this lack of PPE affects other essential services. They are not “allowed” to wear masks by various corporations until healthcare has enough.
I think he'd be agitated enough after you cut a hole in him.
A million dead ? Why not 500 K ? Why not 100 K ? Why not 1.2 million ? Or perhaps 1.5 million ? 5 Million ? 10 Million ? 25 Million ? Just numbers anyone can pull out of their rear ends. They mean absolutely nothing.

Herd immunity works with a vaccination .
wanna see ‘civil unrest’? have granny tell tide pod kids she’s giving her entire estate to the cat shelter. ;)
“I cannot, for the life of me believe that your comment would ever be posted on this great site.”
Throughout the millennia of civilized man, there have been folks that insisted on saving everyone, no matter the cost.
They have never prevailed. And that is why we are here today.
Hard reality.
“No symptoms at the time of test result. How many needed to be ventilated 10 days later? That’s something I never see reported.”
There was a percentage stating how many needs to be ventilated out there somewhere. Will post when I see it again, maybe some else has it.
“De wall of txt.”
Yes, and I’m wondering if the legendary chronicle Race Bannon would consider posting only links to the daily thread...on the daily thread...
“25 year old All-American athlete in ICU w/Coronavirus. On a ventilator. His family has not been able to talk to him for more than a week — in a medically induced coma for days.”
I guess being physically fit is another of the underlying conditions we need to worry about. Missing the gym less, now. :(
