Day one. It had "climate change" written all over it.
And your proof is? Georgia opened. Continues to plummet. Go crawl under your bed.
Real numbers 49,000. CDC 25% overinflated
And we can depend on you to decide who is acting correctly and who is acting like an asshole?
The fact that you post self portraits every day on this thread, does make you an expert on how assholes smell, but for you to judge the USA's collective behavior is a stretch.
Do you have tomorrow’s winning lottery number handy?
My question:
What must occur before you would join in with the growing demand that the governors end the lockdown of America and restore our liberties such as freedom to travel, freedom to reopen our businesses, freedom to engage in group activities such as sports, parties and concerts ... those sorts of things?
I acknowledge that restoring America to its former greatness may take time and I presume you agree that, eventually, this must happen. I would be most grateful, Kozak, for a thoughtful response. Many thanks.
I suspected from day 1 that this was political.
The left induced hysteria, the science, the lack of bodies stacked like cord wood, the economic collapse all served to further cement my suspicion that this was played because they could not impeach, russiagate, ukrainegate, stormygate....
Swine flu, bird flu, ebola, krockodile, and every other mass hysteria event on FR over the years made me a flubro from the get go.
I’m considered an essential employ so I’m out everyday M-F and I’m in a grocery store 3 times a week or so.
No mask, no gloves. Just wash the hands numerous times a day and hand sanitizer at the ready.
The shutdowns and social distancing was to flatten the curve. The areas under everything normal curve and social distancing curve is exactly the same. Nobody gets saved. It just takes longer to get infected while people cower in their hidey holes waiting for a vaccine or cure that may never come.
Meanwhile everyone who have lost their job have their lives ruined.
Last week, Cuomo made it clear that social distancing doesn’t work. He said that the majority of new WuFlu cases in NYC were in people who had been in total lockdown in their homes with zero contact with outsiders.
So we’ve been had. They’ve made fools of us. (We already knew that.)
Yep, the media coordination to foster hysteria was over the top.
“Why is trump letting that asshole fauci appear before a senate committee today.”
I wondered that, too, until the press briefing with Kayleigh. Press critter asked why POTUS won’t let Fauci appear at a House hearing — is he afraid of being questioned by Democrats? Kayleigh asked, “Will Democrats question Fauci in Senate hearings?” Critter: “Yes.” (Gotcha!)
I think that if PDJT had kept him from testifying at ALL, it would’ve been a problem — optics. The compromise is having him at the Senate where it’ll be a fairer venue, with Americans in charge (instead of commies running the show in the House).
(I cold be wrong.)
Here’s an email exchange with my wife on Jan 24th. She posted this link to an article on “the new China virus” - https://nypost.com/2020/01/23/dont-buy-the-media-hype-over-the-new-china-virus/?fbclid=IwAR1oo6uG3WNzaoc_HAJShAuTV4MX8wHIeii67CFLiwruFM06sWVe7h0yk38 - and asked my thoughts about it.
My response was:
“Haven’t read this.”
“But do you remember SARs? Or Swine Flu? Or Ebola? We were all going to die from each of those, and yet, here we are.”
“But also, remember the “Spanish Flu” from the 1910s which did kill enough people that they had to call off world war 1 because they ran out of people to fight. Eventually one of these pandemic scares will be true. But there is no reason to think this is the one.”
I guess I’ve been a flubro from the start.
By the way, the reason she was asking was because my daughter was on her third day of a low grade fever, dry cough, minor aches and pains. Things that make you go hmmm.
I was skeptical at first — just a hinky feeling with nothing really behind it.
When I KNEW it was a crock was the first CV briefing with Trump on stage with Fauci, and Fauci was speaking, bloviating, flailing his arms, and dictating what was what. The look on Trump’s face gave it away. Even HE knew it was a crock, and no worse than the flu.
Maybe Kojak hasn’t heard that even Dr. Scarves now believes that the CDC has grossly inflated those numbers by 25%.
Our Lansing Overlord announced an effort to increase the amount of testing in Mittengan.
Top of head (cuz I don’t pay much attention to Herr) 1500/day to 3000/day by EOWeek?
See, the more new positives she can prove, the easier it can said that it isn’t under control.
THERE IS NO STEP 5
