This is really STUNNING information!
The Texas Department of Health released numbers recently comparing the coronavirus to the last two seasonal flu viruses.
The coronavirus was actually less lethal than the flu in the state!
The flu had a mortality rate of 0.03% and 0.04%.
The coronavirus has a mortality rate of 0.01% in Texas.
This won’t make any headlines.

100 hundred thousand dead, when it was projected that 2 million were to die! And this is a nation of over 330 million people. Get a grip.

Fine. Go ahead and go out there and party it up, lick doorknobs, whatever it is you want to do. If you happen to contract COVID-19, please be sure to report your experience to the rest of the class.

Awe, poor baby! Aren’t people buying your bull sh*t covid horror stories anymore? You should try stomping your feet, that always adds extra emphasis to your argument.
People have had their lives destroyed by knuckleheads like you pushing these B.S. horror stories! Sorry, but the facts are not matching the hype from pearl clutchers like you!
You want to wear a mask, stay in your home for the next year, avoid people at all costs, go right ahead! But we’ve had it with people like you trying to pass your hysteria on to us! We are moving on with our lives...covid or no covid!

Business were bankrupted and ruined, careers ruined, retirements ruined. For this.
Greg Abbott should hang.

The flu kills three times as many and the rare few get any long term issues from COVID-19.

Those may be of people from ICUs, but definitely not the general population.
I know multiple people who had COVID-19 and have no issues. All the young ones didnt realize they had it until their parents showed signs, and the parents are fine.

It seems to be common to have a second wave in pandemics. So, Im sure this virus will be no different. Previous WHO docs state a second wave hits 3-6 months after the first wave subsided.

All of this is called “The Big Lie” and the big lie concept works better the bigger the lie is.

Well stated. Or to say it another way, which may well be the reason for this entire pandemic panic/lockdown/mandatory mask exercise is:
to train us that we are more responsible for the next person’s welfare than he is for his own.

I WISH someone would do a study of Arizona deaths from Covid. Our REPUBLICAN Governor just closed gyms, etc., again. WHO IS REPORTING PHONY CASES FROM HERE? I had a Covid test back in May and asked at the time (the test wasnt yet commonly done then) if the nurse had any idea of how many positives they had had. She said they had done about 500 tests at the time and had NO POSITIVES. That was early on, but I suspect that someone is cooking the books in Arizona just like Florida.

I actually think in a nutshell this whole fiasco is result of fairness. It is not fair I am not afraid and you are. So, therefore, I and all others not afraid must be made to accommodate your fear so we are equal. Because it is just not fair for you to be afraid alone.
Sir you are correct. It’s about being fair. I’m scared so you should be too. I’m at risk therefore you need to wear a mask. I feel bad about myself, therefore you are bad too.

Yes, clotting has been discussed several months, but this paper has new technical research results about what is happening at the cellular level.

There were several waves in the 1918 flu pandemic.
I discovered a couple weeks ago the second wave killed a distant cousin in Alberta. It also severely sickened a great uncle serving in France, but he made a full recovery.
To: SeekAndFind
And I would argue that had there been panic driven, virus specific testing in 2017-18 as there is today, those numbers would have been vastly greater since asymptomatic people and those who thought they just had a mild cold would have been included as they are today.........
