Some of our FearBro FReepers may in fact have existing health conditions that give them reason to fear. I’m willing to cut them some slack on that. Though I still maintain that the solution of locking down everyone is neither practical nor sustainable.

The premise would be that schools would have remained open.
NBA games continuing. Major league baseball, Major league soccer, starting up. Malls, restaurants, all continuing as usual.
2 million never would have been reached as at some point things would have been closed. But by that point Trump would have been done.
So he did things right. And I have faith that he knows opening up is the right thing to do now and that he knows we can handle what collateral damage will come given what we have learned during this mess.
I agree 100%. I've seen some posts by said FReepers and sympathize. Keeping the healthy quarantined until Fooch or The Scarf deem everything safe isn't going to fly much longer.
C19 is too new to plug it into the influenza model.
Did you believe Trump when he said three weeks ago. we are going to have “a hell of a bad two weeks,” referring to the past two. And if you did, how do you explain that horror did not materialize?

Front page our local newspaper.
From memory, paraphrasing.
“Alabama Department of Corrections has 3 inmates test positive for Covid. 1 death.”
Sounds like an inmate died of coronavirus right. Well maybe. Or maybe not. You see, the inmate had a “terminal disease”. Didn’t specify what. He was transferred to the hospital where he was tested and found to be positive. And died the next day.
Course, you had to go deep into page two before that fact was mentioned.
No one has challenged what I stated as fact in the beginning. Like you they assume as I decline to be an ignorant flubro.
No one of average intelligence can proudly mutter, “it’s just the flu bro” when the ChiCom Virus is not a flu or any influenza and was as a Nobel Prize winner stated not a natural byproduct but manmade.
Show me where I stated anything challenging any aspect of liberty.
See my tagline for more.
No, I’m not into either piss or vocalizing ignorance. I am not a flubro.
It actually came out of a ChiCom Level 4 lab.
It has killed over 42,000 Americans.
It will kill thousands more Americans in just a few months.
It is killing thousands more Americans now.
It is hospitalizing thousands more Americans.
It is not influenza.
It never was a flu.
It is the ChiCom Virus.
A flubro is a public admission of ignorance.
May piss be upon them.
Yawn. Piss boy.
Seems like your posts are kind of “bladder-centric” today...
“Did you believe Trump when he said three weeks ago. we are going to have “a hell of a bad two weeks,” referring to the past two. And if you did, how do you explain that horror did not materialize?”
Man, I’m really happy you’re in a safe flubro bubble. In the real world of the US, thousands of Americans have died in the last two weeks.
On April 8th, there were 16,550 American dead due to the ChiCom Virus.
Today there will be more than 45,000 Americans dead due to the ChiCom Virus.
Tens of thousands of Americans dead in two weeks is no horror.
Wow, let’s party flubro!
See my tagline for more. SMH
I think you’re right. They’re trying to justify the panic because they know people are getting angry now.
OK, so you refuse to answer my question. But calling people names is always the best way to win an argument. Just like they do over at DU.
:: I’ll say it again...The ChiCom Virus came out of a Wuhan Level 4 Lab. ::
Oh, Austin, I never said you couldn’t say or repeat it.
I just wondered where that info came from; whether it is confirmed as truthful.
To my knowledge, POTUS has yet to tell us the origination point other than “China”.
He has said he knows, but isn’t willing to tell us at this point of the game.
So, what’s your source for this little gem, Austin?
Fake News goes both ways.
I’m not calling you any names but if the shoe fits...
The ChiCom Virus is not a flu. It’s not any influenza. It never was.
It came from a Wuhan Level 4 lab.
I will not become an ignorant flubro. Ever.
:: the ChiCom Virus is not the mofo’ing flu ::
Mofo?
Mofo?!?
Austin, stop being so white and appropriating slang you THINK is correct because some other white guy used it in a sentence. Damn, even Barbara Billingsly didn’t say “mofo”.
Stupid muffiker.
It actually came out of a ChiCom Level 4 lab. - Not proven and actually probably not true.
It has killed over 42,000 Americans. - Total BS since NYC has been caught flat out lying.
It will kill thousands more in just a few months. - You don’t know that, just your hysterical nonsense.
It is killing thousands more Americans. - Same as the previous hysterical nonsense.
It is hospitalizing thousands more Americans. - So far, the hospitalizations have been insignificant compared to your hype. In fact, most emergency clinics and hospitals are empty.
It is not influenza. - It’s a corona virus like the common cold, actually. So what’s your point. We shut down the country for the common cold??
It never was a flu. - Same nonsensical statement as the previous one.
It is the ChiCom Virus. - Same could be said of flu strains originating in the US. Do you want the flu strains to be known as the New York Flu or the Chicago Flu, and have nations demand to nuke us for it? If you want war with China, go get a rifle and have at it.
Don’t check with him.
I’m not conducting a proper scientif study.
You responses appear to have supported my original post on this topic.
Be safe, FRen.
Only a person who calls another a “Stupid muffiker” believes the ChiCom Virus, made in a Wuhan Level 4 lab is as a flubro says, “the flu” fits the bill.
Rinse and repeat “Stupid muffiker.”
A follow-up to your previous post #59, directly from my cousin...
“”(she) went with me. They asked if she wanted tested but since her symptoms had disappeared she said no.
They gave me a handout that said;
Stay home, they will call with the results.
If the test is negative stay home for 14 days.
If the test is positive stay home 3 days after the last fever over 100 degrees and 7 days (not 14 for some reason) after the first symptoms appeared.
I stayed home for 14 days even though positive.
The county called a day after I had been notified and asked a few questions about where I may have got it and I could really only say either my sister in law that never got tested or a Walmart or gas station.
As you know I had this on FB. Neighbors knew. Government did no monitoring. Just trusted me to follow instructions.””
