I’ll stick with Trump and the facts.

I'll stick with Wittkowski, not Fauci who has been all over the board with these ever changing models since he first stepped foot on stage.........

As a side note, 22,000 deaths so far, and 79,416 deaths in the 2017-18 flu epidemic......We've got a long way to go.

Indeed we do. How long did it take us to get where we are with the flu. Years, decades, Centuries? We are just a few months into it with this newest devil.

You simply cannot make a legitimate comparison between the flu and the Coronavirus. In the case of the flu, humanity has developed at least some level of resistance. We don’t have that for the new one.

Sad to predict that the death totals for this virus will greatly exceed this years flu casualties. That is not certain, of course, but it is by far the most likely outcome.

Don’t assume that our move back to “normal” won’t increase the infection and death count. There is no magic here. They will both increase. It is a price we are just going to have to pay.

The status quo, the lockdown, is not sustainable. We have to move away from that as quickly as we can. But infection and death rates will suffer.
