You are ageing yourself.
LOL. Yep I guess so. But so are you. If you're ever in Vegas, let me know. I'll buy you a beer or 4.
There’s nothing to explain. Flu season peaks at different times each year. Sometimes as late as March. This is normal. You’re creating a conspiracy out of normality.
Repeating the same nonsense doesn’t make it less false.
HOORAY WAR
I used to live off Twain back in the day. Ford Aerospace.
You had a new road headed north.
I was secret guy. Riviera had the best book in town. :)
I’m out in Pahrump.

(and in this interconnected communication age???...amazing)
You have less than 700 out of 331 million have flu.
You are not very well with math.
I take it you are young and your teachers sucked.
“I’m out in Pahrump.”
My sis is in Kingman. Next time I fly into Vegas and she picks me up, I’ll buy U a beer. : )
She lived in Vegas for 20 years, as did my parents (RIP). She drove truck at UPS.
That’s weird. My Covid test came back positive and I have no fever.
It's a deal!
Oh heck yea I’ll meet up with you.
I had to shoot down our guys out of Tonopah.
That damn bus had no AC. I learned some serious cards from the Station House though.
I expected the High Plains Drifter to walk in at any time.
Good Memories
Your statements - which I will stipulate is true - only support the Mr. Root's premise that concerns over Covid are overblown and/or figures are inflated.
The point is: The public perception is being manipulated to make Covid look like the worst scourge to strike Mankind since the Black Plague. Illnesses / deaths caused by the flu or other, similar infectious diseases are being attributed to Covid, through deliberately misleading reporting (by suppressing comorbidities; hyping Covid; downplaying everything else).
Regards,
You would be wrong. We have not seen a lot of flu yet abs we do test for it. It may either be a mild season or it may be too early. Yes there is a lot of hysteria out there but yes covid is real and filling our hospitals and ICUs. other can be true.
CDC admitted weeks ago that the common cold gives a positive reading on a covid test.
