Its just the flu, bro.
Good news in Texas - Governor Abbott rolled back the draconian mandatory mask rules imposed in some Democrat counties. So I am thankful that lawmakers are slowly allowing us to have some of our constitutional freedoms again.
Herd Immunity - Apparently the science around herd immunity is settled. It is really settled and not just global warming settled. Herd immunity levels are known for many viruses and these levels are a function of how many healthy people the average sick person infects. It is a broad range right now but herd immunity for CV occurs in the range of 29% to 74% having antibodies.

Worldometer - numbers of newly infected are on the way down. Politicians must surely relax things now - right?
Can’t we all just Get Along??? :)
Congested.
To the basements. SHUT IT DOWN NOW!!!
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!1!!1!11!!!
I mean, I didnt think I would ever invoke it but you have just made Godwins Law just about irresistible.
Damn.
Wish I had thought of that!
Calling someone mold is a compliment. And I quite even beautiful forests need mold... it seems to me that you are quite dishonest in classified this as throwing us a bone
In the same spirit:.. even the most intellectual of conversations need some dullards which you are
Feel complimented?
The coming Ice Age the oil crisis Y2K 911 global warming peak oil...see a pattern?
And the advent of other websites. When Free Republic was born, the internet was a baby.
And the failure to recruit a more youthful participation.
And a lessening of activism.
All these things.
“Personally, I appreciate his embrace of federalism but disdain his embrace of Fauci as an advisor.”
Speaking of his embrace of Fauci, I’m wondering how/if Kushner is a bit involved in the sabotage. I know Jared has been good at ramrodding equiment, but he is a Fauci fan. In his interview with Steve Hilton he was a robot marionette for 15 minutes, except scolding Hilton for subtly criticizing Fauci. So he’s joined the ranks of the MSM, Clintons, and associates.
So the history of the world, circa 1929-1945 was simply a scripted exercise performed for you to treat it as a rubber nose. You deny history.
I bet you also use the canard of “conspiracy theory” a lot, too.
What an excellent quote.
I nominate this as the Flubro motto.
Who can make flags?
I gotta say, that one made me laugh.
Not sure why.
I think you failed to realize. Godwins Law has come into play.
“””Free Republic used to be neck and neck with National Review (#1000 range) in terms of its US Alexa ranking. Now its slouching towards #5000. Although a significant number of Freepers have shuffled off this mortal coil, the repeated purges have taken a toll.”””

“The reason why people are dying alone has nothing to do with CoVId. It has everything to do with the unreasonable shut downs”
My friend’s mother has been in assisted living for a few years, enjoying her friends and activities, and except for a few memory lapses (which we all have occasionally), was doing extremely well. Her daughters visited every day.
Since this lockdown began, no daughters’ visits. No socializing among friends. Meals are served in the rooms instead of the dining hall. In six weeks, she took a deep dive into full dementia. Now she calls my friend to help him look for her deceased husband. She thinks he left her and she’s in a panic all the time to try to find him. It is heartbreaking.
“People are dying alone because some swallowed hook line and sinker that we must isolate.”
We expect this any day, when two months ago, her long-term future looked very good.
Your view of his behavior.
Mine differs.
Your view by definition is not fact. It is opinion.
Godwin’s Law is a rhetorical device created to give the user a safe haven from poor debate skills.
It made it’s way into public use by scoundrels and ne’er-do-wells looking to “score points” in defense of the indefensible.
It also allows the user to deny history.
Sadly for your argument, Hitler WAS real.
The plague...the plague...we are all going to die!
Yes. I have said all along that isolation is far worse than anything. Humans are creatures that require family and friends. It is why solitary confinement in prison is feared among the prisoners.
The elderly clearly slip into dementia if they have it without stimulation. The example you give is spot on. If she is in NY she will also be listed as a CoVId death.
I suspect that there are hundreds of thousands of collateral deaths that make the grossly inflated 54000 number look like a piker.
This is tragic in many levels. The most tragic thing I have seen was one of our celebrating that the government is letting us have our rights back. Bullsh*t. We should be with pitchforks and tar and feathers in state and national capitals showing that our rights are not negotiable.
Remember. The tree of Liberty is watered with the blood of tyrants. Something the tyrants would be well to remember
Well, it is the law after all.
