Per Capita or is this JUST MORE FEARMONGERING HYPE?
Let me guess. Nope, not per capita. Not even close.
Liberals: We need 4 Months Unemployment @ $22/Hour
Liberals 4 months Later: Unemployment is SOOO HIGHHHH!
BOL!
Oh noes! We’re all gonna die!!!
Lotta “ifs” there, buddy.
We are the third largest nation. I might expect to have 3rd place.
China is lying.
India I don’t know if they are lying or just don’t have systems in place.
Or they may take Hydroxychloroquine more.
I heard somewhere that is the case, but don’t know for a fact.
Yes, but you said “Europe can fit three times into the size of the US”
I assume you mean in terms of area. What you’ve shown in the map isn’t all the European countries - as I posted, the area of “Europe” the continent is 3.9 million sq miles, and the USA is 3.7 million sq miles.
Or did you mean “the countries of the European Union can fit three times into the size of the US”?
But even then the total area of all the countries in the EU is 1.7 million sq miles - which is 46% of the USA’s area.
Neither of those provides a condition where “europe” is 1/3rd the size of the USA.
So, I’m puzzled what you were trying to say? Do you know what you were trying to say?
in post #42 you said “Europe can fit three times into the size of the US”. Now in post #84 (double! Was that intended? :) )
you are saying “Talking about from England to Greece” —> you mean a sub-set of the EU (which in turn is a subset of the continent of Europe)?
Texas - out of 86K infected there have been 1,868 recovered and 1301 dead. So a death rate of 1.5% out of those infected. 10 times higher than the flu based on reported cases.
Doesn’t mean we panic, just means we don’t dismiss it lightly
Nope. That was the point of Brexit - it’s not a country. If it was a country it would
1. Be legally defined as a country - it isn’t
2. have a constitution - it doesn’t
3. have a common decision making that isn’t depend on being unanimous and is implemented uniformly - it fails at that as the covid-19 pandemic has shown. A unitary state like the USA fares better than a confederation
it’s nowhere near being like the USA. The EU is more comparable to India - which IS a country - a country formed of 28 nations (25 different scripts, 60+ languages, 4 races, multiple religions etc.) - but is not centralized in any way. It’s still a loose confederation and that’s why you have countries closing their borders - imagine if Colorado shut down its borders?
Close, but not quite. It could have been that way if not for the civil war.
Each state is under obligation to follow Federal rules (no “interpretation”), federal currency, etc.
The USA should be looser in many respects - if New Hampshire wants to have abortions and Texas doesn’t, there shouldn’t be a federal common law forcing either state to do what its people don’t want to do (btw I’m pro-life)
You people just amaze me. Panic? That happened three weeks ago. Dismiss lightly? 3.2 million people out of work in the blink of an eye. That not a prediction, that’s hard data. Some of us tried to calm the panic, but you and your buddies wouldn’t have it.
Congratulations. You all have blood on your hands. You’re too stupid to be part of the human race.
India isn’t lying. It doesn’t have the systems in place PLUS they have the advantage of climate:
> each year they are less hit by respiratory viruses than temperate countries - even though India is dirtier, more polluted, less hygienic
> heat seems to deteriorate virii
> humidity slows the transmission of the coronavirus family of viruses and also removes them from surfaces faster
> there is a unvalidated correlation (seeming correlation) between malaria affected countries (like India, subsaharan africa) and those with lower COVID-19 cases.
I’m guessing that heat and humidity CAN be a factor (not a proven one) - so perhaps Florida will be lucky?
There are still people dismissing it.
the unemployment numbers will hit harder.
What do you mean “you and your buddies”? What would be your solution if you were running things on March 6th?
Just shut up and leave. That’s what you need to do. Go away and hide in your bunker and quit trying to infect everyone else with your psycho paranoia.
And your answer was Just shut up and leave. That’s what you need to do. Go away and hide in your bunker and quit trying to infect everyone else
So is that what your solution would have been? To get everyone to hide in Bunkers??!
All this may be word games to you, but try that bullshit on all those out of work people that YOU and your ilk caused.
