It's a lesson in the nature of power.
"Warm in their seats, they were loathe to leave them." - John Adams
The curve has flattened...that is all, but the rates are not yet decreasing.
Ridicule any person under 65 YO you see in public wearing a mask. I call them “maskers”. They are nothing but a bunch of useful Deep State™ idiots at this point.
You are being a Deep State™ useful idiot. Please stop it.
Yeah. And if you look back at the Spanish flu, after the first wave there was much rejoicing that it was past.
The second wave was far worse.
I just hope w don’t repeat that.
People need to stay smart. Keep their distance, wear masks in public as we reopen.
You are an idiot.
I’ll call you ASSKER
Well said! The dictators sure do love the feeling of power.
Pretty sure NO VIRUS GOES "PASSES"!
No...as a scientist, I go where the data leads, not propaganda. The idiots here are you naysayers.
“Yeah. And if you look back at the Spanish flu, after the first wave there was much rejoicing that it was past.
The second wave was far worse....”

True dat. But there are major differences. The Spanish flu hit the young and “healthy” particularly hard. The Chicom’s COVID-19 virus sweeps through most of that demographic frequently without even being noticed.
Reopen the schools and the economy while protecting the vulnerable.
W.W. is running out of pearls to clutch.
Scientist, my ass. Now go back to your hiidey-hole and cower.
There was an interesting interview on the radio yesterday with a county official who is pushing back against his state's leadership on this, and he said something that reinforces something I've been saying since this fiasco started:
"The biggest mistake we made was putting state health officials in charge of this instead of our emergency management office."
The “scientists” and “medical professionals” who have been in charge of this have demonstrated that they are utterly incapable of managing anything even close to this complex.
Looks like the curve of Fearper activity on this site has yet to flatten.
Emergency management people are all about mitigating risk. That’s what society really needed. It’s not what we got. Instead, we got medical people trying to eliminate risk and who were willing to kill the economy in order to save lives. I understand why medical people focus on that. But the emergency management people would have known to provide a better balance.
According to Worldometer, the source that many here are using, there were only 543 new cases and 14 deaths yesterday.
So as a scientist, you probably have an income unlike tens of millions of others whose lives have been destroyed through forced unemployment and having their businesses shut down.
“Ridicule any person under 65 YO you see in public wearing a mask”
So you are going to ridicule a person with an inoperable tumor for a rare cancer that has no proven treatment.
Nice display of Hate.... Don’t be like the Democratic Underground with post of Hate and cursing. Free Republic is better then that.
“No...as a scientist, I go where the data leads”
Are you not bothered by the obvious contamination of data?
Deaths attributed to the virus - just because, example NY adding thousands to their death count.
Scientists are not engineers and vice versa. There is a practical aspect of life's problems "scientists" don't get. An engineer is a scientist with common sense.
