Aren’t they the ones who need help most????
To: RomanSoldier19
Hey, that health care for everyone thing isn’t so good now is it?
Paid taxes your whole life and then when you needed the help......the big effewe...
The best health care is the stuff you pay for.
To: Midwesterner53
If you refuse to treat me, I will just take a walk and see if I can find something to do around others.If you're so sick that you need a machine to help you breathe, it's very unlikely you'll be walking anywhere.

In past years the flu killed thousands more than Corona virus - what did they do for respirators then? Why now is there suddenly a shortage?

If you think that this wouldn’t happen here if our system got overwhelmed, your dreaming.

I'm actually someone who is worried and thinks it's better to be safe than sorry. But, why are so many of y'all on both sides of this situation using so much of your time to go after one another? It's like the most important thing to both of y'all seems to be insults & having a verbal pi×sing match! Why? I have a husband who comes at it from the "this is all overblown, it's not as bad as the media makes it out to be, stop being a bunch of safety nancys". I tell him, it's annoying to listen to because he's burying his head in the sand just to make a point. You are just as bad from the other side. You seem to take joy in trolling people & throwing verbal bombs instead of just saying "I personally think it's better to be safe than sorry. I don't know if it's as bad as the media is making it out to be, but I think it's dangerous & we need to act". Both sides are royally P×ssing me off! 🙄

“Better safe than sorry” are truly pitiful words.
Those are the words of cowards that would trade in freedom for safety...getting neither.
Nothing personal.

I have lived a VERY long time been through at least 5 new pandemics that entered this country and NOT ONCE was there this hysteria the MSM has this so overblown it is disgusting!! Fox News has a special this evening with Harris Faulkner you should watch the rerun of it the nation has NEVER reacted this way to ANY pandemic!!! Her special goes through every pandemic that has entered this nation I think it would be very helpful for you to watch it it will help you to understand WHY we feel this has become utter BS!!! The special will rerun on Fox at 10:00 pm pacific time!!!

This isn’t a libertarian conservative vs authoritarian scenario where anybody is asking you to hand over your freedoms because they think you aren’t entitled to them. To me, this draws on the other part of conservatism that believes in God & family & community & pulling together to fight off something bad. Is asking people to hunker down for a short time, bring all hands on deck, domestically produce some of the supplies we need in this emergency & try & protect the fragile & most at risk such a hard thing to do?
To: Trump Girl Kit Cat
I totally agree with you. I know the media are overhauling this & attempting to scare people. They want nothing more than to bludgeon Trump with something & damage the economy. I'm suspicious.That's why I said I'm in the center on this one. I'm not completely on either side. I know this isn't an apocalypse. I also know it's something dangerous & deadly to many. I think we need to take the threat seriously, social distance, flatten the curve, produce some chloroquinone & ventilators & pull back from large gatherings temporarily; while at the same time staying calm & positive, not buying into the media's Trump narrative, not cleaning out store shelves of food & basic supplies, not killing off our economy & national well-being. I guess I just feel it's possible to find a middle ground because that's where I'm at on this 😉
To: ETCM
Thanks for the facts.
Chloroquine has been and is being used regularly for tough infections.
It is not an ancient drug.

More grim evidence from Italy: the Army trucks have been comandeered as hearses to move dead bodies to crematoria.
Undertakers and grave workers are overwhelmed.

#3. Re “probably why the Chinese welded their people in their houses”.
Well, as Bugs Bunny would say in his way of talking, “the Chinese wanted their people to get weld”.

Hi Doughty...I’m over 60 and if I get sick i’d hate to be denied because of age.
BUT on the other hand I would NOT want a young person in dire need to go untreated so I could be cared for.
I’m in good standing with God so I will be OK whatever comes.

The primary difference between ‘just the flu’ and The Great Chinese Plague is: the former is an upper respiratory disease that seldom needs ventilators, while the later is a lower respiratory disease like pneumonia which often needs ventilators.
That explains the ‘shortage’ which really isn’t a shortage, except in context with this plague.

Doctor Gai Peleg must be of Bolshevik Jew persuasion.
The Bolshevik Jews were always in favor of euthanizing the elderly in Russia back in the day. Now they kill millions of the unborn and off as many old folks as they can get away with.
When Peleg becomes over 60, will HE get the same?( Unlikely)
