The first televised victims of Covid were collapsing in the streets everywhere in Wuhan. For the rest of the world, the vast majority learned they had Covid via a test or having flu-like symptoms.
Covid is now essentially non-existent in Wuhan, its birth place, while it grows more infectious in virtually all other parts of the world.
The Covid survival rate is 99.98% but wearing a mask and closing down the economy is necessary. Mask wearing and shutdowns has essentially eliminated the flu.
Wearing a mask in a restaurant from the door to where you are seated will reduce the risk of spreading the virus.
The governor who’s directives that led to the highest Covid deaths in the nation, is to be celebrated as handling the virus best of all US governors.
Avoiding leaving your home after 10 PM can also reduce the spread of Covid.
CDC is deadly enough to keep the healthy locked in, yet the CDC declared it was acceptable for those infected with Covid to go out and vote.
Unlike other diseases having Covid does not make you immune from it.
HCQ, which has been used for over 50 years by millions of people annually is to be feared. Likewise, a brand new vaccine which has caused a nurse to faint in a PR event is to be trusted, endorsed, if not forced.
Trump’s profit motivation for speaking highly of HCQ, a 70 cent pill, should be questioned. Likewise, the profit motivation behind pharmaceutical companies should not be brought into question. A church or a restaurant are considered high risk areas for spreading covid. Likewise, an airplane packed with 200 people traveling together for 3 hours is not.
Unlike other diseases, (polio, yellow fever, typhoid, chicken pox) getting vaccinated does not remove your risk of getting covid. Your neighbor must get vaccinated as well.
Am I right about this???
No you are wrong about this - the Covid survival rate is 99.7 at best using every trick to keep people alive . Before remdesivir, regeneron, dexamethasone, the survival rate was 98%. .3% of everyone in New York City died of Covid.
I thought that when I saw it.
I have friends posting FB posts of their friend who are nurses documenting their "journey" getting the shot.
I am not worried about day 1, next week or maybe even next year.
I am worried about down the road. Autoimmune problems, chronic inflammations, cancers, etc.
It is my understanding that the vaccine is supposed to only exist in your body for a very short time, then it is your immune system doing the work. In some ways, safer than conventional vaccines because they aren't using cell lines to propagate them that contain hidden retroviruses. Think SV 40, polio and late life cancers.
I just do not trust the intentions of these people who have openly stated they want most of us dead, the competency of 90% of people educated way beyond their intelligence levels and placed in positions simply because of melanin and X chromosome and certainly not big pharma looking as far as the next earnings conference call.
“Oh, just shut up already.”
My point was not to increase panic nor to justify draconian lockdowns. Apparently the Wuhan is a ‘new’ virus (almost like it was created in a lab) that has never appeared before and therefore nobody appears to have immunity to it. Likewise long-term effects are also a mystery, but there are some indications that some who get it have problems after they think they’re over it.
If you will cast your mind back to when Wuhan/CCP virus first appeared and we saw people in Wuhan being scooped up off of the streets into vans, that flight of Americans where the ‘flight attendants’ were wearing moon suits, their involuntary 14-day quarantine in Alaska—those things told me that something serious was happening. Either that or the leaders of the world, including President Trump were told and believed that something serious was happening.
I have to agree that there has been a lot of insanity and fear over this, but again, I think a lot of it comes from nobody really knowing how the best way to deal with it.
I think your assessment on the cold is incorrect. There are many coronavirus that cause the cold and they mutate. Children get more colds. As we age, we become less likely to get them. It appears we do build some immunity to cold causing coronavirus. It may be a strain we have not caught in the past or a mutated version we get later in life.
With all the illness causing coronavirus, how many vaccines do we have for them? If a vaccine could make colds go away, parents would get kids that vaccine. No more cold, secondary ear, sinus ... infections. Then why is there never been a human approved vaccine for coronavirus in history ? Animals - yes.
“I think your assessment on the cold is incorrect.”
As I understand it, the vaccines for Wuhan/Covid are very different from vaccines for other diseases. Who knows, perhaps the research that went into them might lead to a ‘cold’ vaccine.
That’s what I was thinking, she had in mind probably a more localized incident. Certainly not a national - or global - thing. We got sort of interrupted, so we never elaborated.
“Oh we’ve had to do this before.

Did she tell you when this happened. I do not recall it, ever.
Yes, I checked with my uncle, who is your age. He said the same thing: Never happened.
I guess liberals are even more susceptible to gaslighting.
I’m 76. Never has been a mass, nearly year-long lockdown as we’ve been enduring in 2020. I do remember quarantines of people who had measles, mumps, TB, etc.
That's not a semicolon (a semicolon would be incorrect); that's a crossed-out comma. But thanks for noticing!

‘So far they’re doing a hell of a job and have those brain washed idiots cheering them on.’
it’s far worse than that; recently in this awful state of Pennsylvania, upon hearing of increased cases, people (90% female, more or less) took to twitter and begged Tom Wolf to shut down the entire state...
‘The semicolon is used incorrectly in your sentence. A comma will do.’
neither semicolon nor comma is necessary to understand the sense of that sentence...
‘There is no way skinny healthy Chinese people were dying of this virus in huge numbers.’
being skinny does not equate to being healthy...
‘Before remdesivir, regeneron, dexamethasone, the survival rate was 98%. .3% of everyone in New York City died of Covid.’
you should really consult this thread’s grammarian about how to compose a literate sentence when using decimals...
Millions of “asymptomatic” “cases” would tend to suggest that this, as with all things COVID, is also a lie. In this case, “asymptomatic” really means, never got sick because they had immunity. The bogus claim that there are tons of “asymptomatic” people running around as potential “super spreaders”, is a completely unfounded, unproven LIE, being pushed to keep everyone terrified of the phantom that is COVID.
My point about immunity is that if this truly is a virus that has never appeared before, it’s natural to assume that there would be no immunity to it. That’s not to say that many may and do naturally shake off the virus more easily than others. There was talk that O blood types don’t get as sick as other blood types.
My next door neighbor is recovering from the ‘phantom Covid’. She is a former student, about 38 years old. Walking around her house leaves her exhausted. Talked to her yesterday, she had to sit down since standing for even a short while wore her out. Interestingly, neither her husband nor her two sons have caught it so far.
I realize that an anecdotal sample of one means little. And I do understand your skepticism and share some of it. Many are using the excuse of it to undermine important things like personal freedoms, the economy and national elections.
You missed recent article by AMA that came out just after the election saying hey it’s ok now to use the cheap pill that President mentioned back in the spring.
I get it now. Hard to tell with FR overrun with COVID Karens.
