It now becomes a war between using this to completely destroy the economy in the hope it takes Trump down and Trump being able to prevent that.

Tell that to the 5 million that just lost their jobs.
What is this? A post from the Babylon Bee?

A virtual reality office set up - where everyone ‘working’ can see each other would go a long way toward solving that problem.

If spilled bio-weapons are in our future we need to make ‘working from home’ ... work.

Funny how people are learnign nothing. The same “expert analysis” you were all running around hyping a month ago had to come out yesterday and revise down thir death projections by 95%. Now they are admiting it looks like the death toll in the UK will not be 20,000 not over 500,000

So how about you stop putting blind faith in “analysis” that been proven to be absurdly wrong? You know like the “economical analysis” a month ago you all were hyping from the University of Neb which project “US Dead will reach 93,000,000”?

FYI, total number of serious/critical cases nation wide,
today is 2,463.

Throwing millions out of work and bringing the economy to a standstill won’t hurt a thing. Really. Take our word for it - we’re experts!

The deep state, and the far left professors will continue to sell fake figures to push their far left agenda every single time.
Expert CNN and MSDNC to headline their news programs wit this quackery for the next week at least. Its all coordinated.

Also, slowing a spread, now, can give time for new drugs, as we are seeing, to possibly change the outcome dramatically.

I also don’t hear from the “restart it now!” crowd, exactly what they have in mind.

Restore all flights? Europe, China, everywhere?

Cruise ships?

What about China? Does your precious “economy” depend on pretending that none of this ever happened, and trusting those bastards, again?

There are no detailed answers for this panicked “plan”, just complaints.

You can't have an illness with a mortality of 10 times the seasonal flu circulating

Stopped reading right there.
What is your department then?
Making up fake figures?
Maye you need to go work for that Neil Ferguson who came up with the outrageous fake figures for the dead in the UK and the US.

These “experts” would say wild hogs cause no crop damage and there are no coyotes in south Texas. Pull the other one “new Federal study” fraud attempt.

The pandemic will depress the economy all by itself. Think about how the cases will resolve over the next several weeks.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019%E2%80%9320_coronavirus_pandemic#Epidemiology

United States

Cases 100,390

Deaths 1,543

Recoveries 2,465

”The rats and deep state are terrified the economy will come back before November.“

I certainly believe that is true, but it is possible for this statement to be true at the same time that it is also true that we have a serious medical situation on our hands. Just because the dems are, as always, trying to use this crisis to their political advantage doesn’t mean that the medical crisis isn’t real.

We are supposed to be the rational side of the political divide. Let’s not become like the lunatics that still claim that we never landed on the moon.

If you want to save as many Republican voters as possible, promote the making (at home) and wearing of masks in the less affected areas now (see map behind link).

The kind of people who are personally avoiding the insides of supermarkets and pharmacies. I suspect that many of them also know that the disease is disabling some young people.
