Where’s obesity? That ranks #1 among states that report underlying conditions for fatalities. That plus diabetes are 60%+ for some states.

I agree. It seems like (peeking at some other threads from time to time) that some thinking living in podunkville is going to save them.

Imagine how much of the country was rural in 1918.

“The first US death was recorded on February 29...That is when we “Fearpers” were very busy stocking up for what we knew was coming—and every store had lots of everything we needed—and no crowds—and nobody gave us a second glance.”

Well, this Fearper (along with others, no doubt) was well stocked by then and even pulling back due to the virus then being widespread (our prepping for this began a month earlier). And, in my case, it was less than a week later that I told my boss that I was not going to show up at the office again.

...and meanwhile, the FluBros were finalizing their Spring Break and Cruise plans.

“Zerohedge is a Russian disinformation site.”

Others say China runs it. And some say that The Jew runs it.

I don’t know - but OFTEN they will line to ‘credible’ sites, like Forbes and other news outlets.

2/25 was when I texted my family members and suggested they stock up for a month or two

“No point in listening to Flubros Radio.”

Bummer - I’m home, I have the time to listen while working, but NOPE, I’m not going to waste my time with yet another FluBro.

“And unfortunately, 100,000 on April 15, if we don’t have a cure by then...:(”

I think that number 100,000 to 200,000 was over two month period with the flatten curve.

The only good case that you can make for antibodies against COVID-19 is the cases of convalescent plasma being used to rescue 3 of 5 persons who were in ICU and not making progress on the antiviral regimen. 3 quickly recovered when given 400 ml of convalescent plasma.

Given all the other strains going around (at least 8 at the last count), you're likely to encounter one of the other ones in spite of winning the battle the first time.

Yep, I can’t and I won’t. I don’t have time to wait for people to figure out what’s happened.

My two best friends are Flubros. One is going to get laid off this evening as a result of Gov. DeSantis order, and the other in Louisiana, who has already been set to part time, thinks his company will close by weeks end.

I get why they refuse to accept what’s happening, because to accept it basically means that you know everything that you used to do and know is gone. That is a tough realization to make.

So I haven’t told either one of them that they are speaking jibberish, and that I can no longer understand them, but that is about where I’m at with the Flubros.

I can’t even understand what they’re saying anymore, they may as well be space aliens to me.

But Chris, you’ve got underlying issues that require you to pay attention. Them? It’s all about money. When this started, did they laugh at you when you started to prep?

No sir. Across the state. But dear Lord, they are so clearly out of their depth.
Am not one to usually call for folks from out of town, to step in over locals - but I am beginning to think it is needed there.

I’m a she, lol . I know what you mean. I am in Cherokee Co.and I would have expected my county to have more cases being so close to Atlanta.

However, that hospital I’m Albany had around 40 cases they thought were Covid back when testing was barely happening. People around Atlanta were getting tested long before rural areas.
