10 deaths is the marker used by the researcher to begin each national graph at the same relative point in time for purposes of comparison.

The other graph begins each plot at the moment a nation reported 100 confirmed cases.

It’s a standard analytical tool.

I know you are probably young and have not experienced any true hardship in your life. Let me explain something to you. Sometimes citizens are called upon to do things that are inconvenient. Back in 1941 citizens were called upon to place themselves in service to their country where their lives were in extreme danger (life), join a military that they couldn't just walk away from (liberty) and experience extreme misery and hardship (pursuit of happiness). Many died miserably. Yet they volunteer in droves. Why? Because their own government merely asked them to do so, and they cared a lot about each other, their Nation, and their government. They were patriots, you see.

So now we fast forward to the present where we have a tiny virus killing our citizens just as surely as did the bullets and shells of WWII. Once again our government asks for us to do things that are not anywhere as invasive to our lives as before, yet all there is is bitching and bemoaning the supposed loss of Liberty. It seems today we have a large number of selfish pricks rather than true patriots.

Stop replying and read posts 18, 20, and 31. Then take some time to THINK about it.

It’s not hard to follow. It’s FACT and DATA just as much as what you are posting.

I'm 72 The government didn't ask FOX to fire Trish.

Fox used her (many month's worth of) pro Trump vernacular to their benefit.

What is happening now is an extension of the (now) embedded fear in the American psyche that we may never recover from.

Churches that were struggling to keep people coming may not recover the numbers they once had

Schools WILL experience a loss once parents have been forced to learn this home schooling thing ain't so hard after all

Just those two elements alone will alter the American social structure (perhaps) indefinitely.

I'm not so young and I've been paying attention to this movie for a long time.

But thanks for your comment

Exactly! Thanks! Posts 18, 20, and 31 make it pretty clear.

Hillary’s tweets have been down right evil.

Only watch Maria and Varney in the morning and some times Tucker on Fox. Other than that, my news comes from OANN.

Cavuto, and company, is/are slowly frakin’ Fox Business up to the point I hardly watch anything on either FoxNews or FoxBus.

I don’t get why they are bound and determined to alienate their audience. They apparently forgot how they got to be number one or they just don’t care and want to be like the cool kids.

The individuals of "they" are now different individuals.

groupthink is dangerous ....

This doesn’t even begin to approach the number of dead every year for the flu. Why didn’t we shut down the economy for that?

If this Nation cannot recover from this, then we don't deserve what we had. This should not be so severe as to damage anybody's psyche. If it is, then parents did a terrible job with a couple of generations.

Churches are struggling for other reasons, self-inflicted ones at that. I left mine because liberalism started creeping into things.

I'm only two years your junior, so I apologize for the preaching. Others need to read that message.

Even if the virus threat is overstated, and I tend to think it is, this Nation can easily survive. We've been though worse, like the flu of 1918 and the wars.

Maybe people will see it was a dreadful mistake to outsource our industry. I doubt it though since that move was driven by greed superseding love of country. The virus won't kill the greed.

When Murdoch bailed, and a little before, on most of FOX, their behavior has changed to the left and they are weeding out those that fight that.

An article for US News stated:

The announcement from Fox Business came amid fallout from Regan’s claims that the coronavirus is “another attempt to impeach” President Trump.

“We’ve reached a tipping point. The chorus of hate being leveled at the president is nearing a crescendo as Democrats blame him, and only him, for a virus that originated halfway around the world. This is yet another attempt to impeach the president,” she said Monday, adding that Democrats and the “liberal media” were using the coronavirus to “destroy the president.”

Many out there, on the right side, believe that if they take the time to research the history of flu virus in the US. Me for one. And it doesn’t seem to make a different when anyone that sits back and is forced to live on a schedule like is provided, has turned themselves into the sheep for slaughter.

FOX was the last major national citadel of conservative information on television. Since Disney, and not Walt’s Disney, has slowly used their funds to drain any conservative voice off the airways they can, they are rapidly opinion castrating conservative information and opinion. And again in this case, they just annihilated another voice. Between them, NBC, CBS, and all the, so called, news networks, they have slowly destroyed the voice of the people that support the conservative way. It’s taken them years, but they are truly gaining on the outcome they seek.

In a couple of ways, in my advancing and body failing age, I am sad in seeing the end of what this country has stood for for over 225 years and for centuries has been the dream of getting to for good people from all over the world. My time is short. In time, a short one, this country will be just like what they were leaving. And I am sad that I was unable to stop it and was used as a way to get it done. Hope enough of us in the future grow a spine and change this without harming the sheep. We wouldn’t be a good sheepdog or shepherd if we did. Cause the wolves don’t care who they harm. They’re just hungry for power.

And we have essentially shut down a country of 330 million people for less than 1,500 deaths...avg of 30 per state....unbelieveable.

This is TX shutting down two counties. Note the website referenced.

Michigan's Governor Whitmer's executive order was titled "Stay Home, Stay Safe."

I sense a trend here...
