It’s just the flu, bro.
The media’s desperate attempt to increase fear about CV, at the same time as the death rate is plummeting, is like an attention seeking child throwing a temper tantrum. One would think the media cares about its credibility a little bit. They can’t continue much longer, I assume. Maybe they have a couple more months of tantrums. They can’t possibly make it to November.
Stalin said that a million deaths is a statistic but one death is a tragedy. Along those lines there are now stupid stories of twenty somethings who got sick with CV at a party and feel bad. These aren’t even close to deaths. Does the media think that we will weep because some young adults feel bad? The last panic by the media will consist of heartwarming biographies of every person who dies or gets sick coupled with an inflated estimate of the number of new people exposed to the “deadly” virus.

Ping. Freepmail Impimp to go on the ping list.
it is just the flu bro.
people are laughing at the prospect of continuing the charade...
wearing a mask and not getting any candy... not cool bro.
The fatality rates now are just static.
Deaths per day while having a hangnail are likely higher than Kozak’s number.
The hoax seems to have run it’s course. No masks,no more.
Gave up on open salad bars and their sneeze guards a long, long time ago.
Way, way before this virus was in the news.
It’s unfortunately having an effect. Here in Florida our formerly good governor is giving in to the hysteria bit by bit, closing things down, and our not so good mayor of Jacksonville just announced a mask mandate. This is going to kill our recovery. And all for what? Some fantasy statistics of people who, at some time in the past, have had the disease but now are recovered and just fine (if they even knew they had it).
Things were just starting to come back and people were beginning to invest and work based on the belief that they wouldn’t shut us down again. And now that’s collapsing.
Oh - and part of it is aimed at preventing or seriously impeding the RNC which is supposed to take place in Jax in August.
This is entirely political and has nothing to do with health.
unfortunately i feel we are losing ground with states shutting back down. Even red states that should know better. We need a leader that will stand up and say enough!
Pics are pigs whether there is a pandemic or not. What does this have to do with anything? You want to close society for every sniffle?
We have no leaders,only politicians that must be challenged at every opportunity.
Talked to a bar owner that is going to open the Fourth.
"So what,if they pull my license. I'm done for either way."
This BLM/Antifa crap is going to lead to open rebellion.
Same here, open buffets too. That's one reason a cruise never appealed to me. For one, I don't normally eat a lot at one sitting, and second, human pigs disgust me.
“Gave up on open salad bars and their sneeze guards a long, long time ago.”
I didn’t. I was particularly fond of Jason’s Deli salad bar. Of course they’ve done away with that, but will now “build” a salad for you based on your order. You check off the ingredients, and they put it together.
I was skeptical (because I load it up and there are free refills). Ordered one anyway. I was astounded...could not eat it all. Just an incredibly huge plate of food.
But I see your point. Jason’s keeps their bar spotless, but I’ve been to salad bars I wouldn’t walk a pig thru. Don’t get me started on full meal buffets.

And listen to yesterday’s show.
First half guest was Dr. Cyril Wecht, lifelong Democrat and world-renowned doctor (Anthony Fauci couldn’t hold his jockstrap). He absolutely shreds this COVID insanity.
A couple weeks ago I was in Kentucky and a buddy and I visited a local Chinese restaurant. It was a buffet, but they simply asked that you put a cheap little plastic, throwaway glove on whenever getting food. I liked that. Very simple and keeps grubby hands off the spoons/ladles.
Also want to thank impimp and Kozak. I mentioned last week how this thread is somehow comforting, sort of like visiting old friends. impimp’s initial dead pan post, followed by Kozak’s reliable fear-filled response, are always worth catching.
I met my first virus victim yesterday. A group of high school seniors went on a trip to Florida and about twenty of them came down with it. A few had 103-type fevers. The rest were asymptomatic or minor symptoms. He was back to mowing yards for college money.
Is that bar in Elgin, TX that’s been banning customers who wear masks still open in defiance of Abbott? Or does it consider itself a restaurant thus having a loophole?
After viewing your post I specifically checked out stories out of Houston and Vegas. You should check before posting because what you posted is not true. Vegas has more cases (undoubtedly because of testing) but no real rise in those needing medical attention.
And here’s a quote from a Houston hospital:
‘We were getting panicked calls from elected officials and members of the media saying, ‘You all are out of ICU beds, what are we going to do?’ No, that’s not right. We were not doing a very good job with our slides and portraying how we manage our capacity,” said Dr. David Callender, President & CEO, Memorial Hermann Hospital. “We want to be very clear. We’re not close to running out of capacity.”
What we are actually finding out is that this virus is just not that dangerous. Fwiw, a few weeks ago I would have been on your side. Keep your mind open and investigate objectively.
