It’s just the flu, bro.
Wonderful anecdote - I went to the chiropractor yesterday. Nobody on staff had masks on. The doctor said nobody needs to wear a mask in his office. I gave him a tip because I was so happy with his mask policies...and who tips a doctor?

Looks like this is the first week that no day had “deaths” over 1000. Deaths should continue to drop from here.
One caveat to the deaths dropping that I have mentioned before - False positives from PCR testing will lead to massive numbers of asymptomatic cases. Since people die at the rate of about 1% per year, we will have a floor on the number of deaths. The death count might wind up never (or for a few years) going under a couple of hundred per day due to the deaths of people falsely labeled as CV cases. Unfortunately these fake CV deaths will fuel the wrong-headed case for lockdowns and mask requirements.

Michigan lockdown struck down by courts. Don’t know what this means or what Whitmer can still do to make people’s lives miserable. She won’t give up.

Court ruling doesn’t take effect for three weeks.

Ping. Freepmail Impimp to go on the ping list.
President Trump is in Walter Reed related to C19, delivered to us from communist China, and not the flu.
IBK!
This thread is not aging well...
IBK
It’s just the flu, bro. It’s all a pack of lies in the media...this virus is nothing special
I hadn’t seen IBK before, or at least wondered what it was. I had to look it up. I see “Instant Buzz Kill” and “Idiot Behind Keyboard”. Something else?
Is the president hospitalized over a pack of lies?
He is not on supplemental oxygen. His voice is strong and he is speaking in complete sentences. There is no respiratory distress and he is able to walk a fair distance without supplemental oxygen. If her was not president he would. it be in the hospital
He’s in the hospital as a precaution.
I’m not 74 and obese.
I’d like to live my life.
People that are elderly and/or have comorbidities should take precautions.
Hide in your basement if you’re a coward.
That works. There is a poster "Kozak" that posts daily death counts as soon as the daily thread is posted. Hence In Before Kozak. Looks like he is a bit late today.
IBK
In part, yes.
Ah, got it. Thanks.
I’m saying President Trump has C19, delivered to us from communist China and not the flu. You can either accept that basic premise, or not.
Specifically, what part of President Trump's hospitalization is based on a lie?
Why? If Trump comes through this fine, it will be just further evidence of the low virulence of this virus.
It is technically not the flu.
Some flu strains are worse, most are less serious.
It seems to have come from China, but neither you nor I have actual evidence.
DJT has it right, right?
