About 4,000 survived (presumably in hospital), according to the video. But about 4,000 died, so far.
Ah, but if you DID get in an accident, it wouldn’t cause 2 to 4 accidents 5 days later, and then 4 to 16 in another 5 days, etc.
Yep, sure is. These people never had mommies or daddies, obviously.
Now THAT I don’t worry about. Gotta run errands and go to my job, and away from the carriers, the airborne stuff simply gets scattered to the four winds. I’m not likely to pick up enough of a dose of airborne to start an infection, if I’m careful.
Agreed. The statewide shutdowns are premature in most cases.
The fewer places that have breakouts, the more resources that can be mobilized for places that need them.
I’m cool with shutting down individual counties, just not entire states at this time, except maybe New York and Washington.
True, therefore countywide shutdowns are not beyond the pale for me.
No panic. No fear. But IF we don’t stay home and take this seriously this is how YOUR town WILL end up.
Your title does not match the video title. So now after weeks of gaslighting and lies you Wu Flu addicts are going to hide behind POTUS? How brave. How about instead of tantruming you just go into isolation?
Well, hey, speak for yourself!!!!!!
Most of the cases are downstate.
NY is a big state and there is a lot of very desolate areas.
We don't need to shut down the entire state to take care of NYC. Just quarantine THEM.
And you don't even have to encircle the city. A good chunk of it is bordered by ocean and the water is COLD at this time of year.
Not many people are going to escape that way and live to tell about it.
Where is the rest of Europe? We see terrible scenes from Italy and yet the EU is totally AWOL. I’m not understanding that.
Americans have become such pussies. I weep.
There is a direct correlation between all this panic and extreme measures that are being taken and the fact that people are living much longer these days then they were 40 years ago.... This is about the political ramifications of millions of people in their 70’s and 80’s dying from this virus..... Most of whom would not have lived this long in another era..... When they talk about the health care system being overwhelmed, it is all about these older people..... Not saying younger people can’t get it too, but in the old days when the life expectancy was 70 tops, these extreme measures would not be taken..... The West has become old and soft compared to when life was harder and people did not live as long
Or get cancer?
And we're all 20 somethings...
The South of Italy is about to get slammed hard, because folks in the North didn’t stay put.
Way oversimplified. Indoors/outdoors, wind/no wind, atomized with a sprayer/with a sneeze. No, Chicken Little, the Sky is not truly falling. Yes people have died. In China, Iran, Italy and other places it is a disaster. There are various reasons why each of those nations have total chaos. They are NOT the USA.
Migrant Chinese workers (legal & illegal) in Italy are the vehicle to this disaster. There are other reasons too.
It has been discussed at length her on FR.
The USA is NOT Italy.
It is time to remain skeptical of the US media and to not panic. ComDem Insanity is the cure for nothing.
Some of these antiwar protesters are never gonna get it. Some are Pandas.
Either way, they’ll be claiming the credit one way or the other when this ends.
“I had it.. So I can tell you...it’s the flu. Your retort?”
If you had it (Proof? Location? Doctor that diagnosed? Share your whole experience.) and you were one of the many that experienced mild symptoms, good for you. Solipsist.
Praying for you, too.
