That’s not a check from the government. Which means you probably cannot tolerate the hysteria leading the the lockdown. Not to mention you probably can not afford it!

Try this site for U.S. data:

https://covidtracking.com/data/

I downloaded some state data into Excel from it. Like you I found it very difficult to get useful data and our health bureaucracies are particulary bereft of data (which is not at all surprising).

Thanks! :-)

I read quite a few foreign papers so that's where I picked up the thing about the French problem. Yes, my high school French is just good enough to mostly get what's in the French press, when no English version is available.

My point was just about making fair comparisons; but, I don’t disagree with you about implications for policy.

True, unemployment comes from the state but it appears the feds will be giving extra on top of that.

Will not get either of those checks - or one if it’s combined.

Will probably get the big one but that’s just extra and will go in the bank.

As with being self employed I make my own financial decisions so I’ll make out.

“The US has the largest number of fake news reporters in the world.”

Yes, we do. If it furthers their political ideology or agenda, they’ll lie about anything.

Sadly, too many people are following their reports because they want this dramabug to be real.

Sadly also, most of the people who buy into this bug are not business owners or people relying on working for a living. Too many people see this as an opportunity to get a handout and not work.

“ Some of us are self employed - so we don’t get unemployment.”

And some of us keep paying employees, too.

Not unless it’s like SARS or some virus where most people aren’t strongly effected.

there was an article stating the number of urns (ashes)going into Wuhan exceeded the death count by several multiples.

It’s a fraud, a fakery, a bunch of non-sense.
Most people have fallen for it hook, line, and sinker.
Americans at one time doubted such snake oil promotion. But now they cower in their homes and pray for the government to save them.

Who believes the Chinese stats anyway?

We all know the Chi-Coms are big fat liars.

“The total number of Wuhan virus cases in the US surpassed the total in any other country yesterday. “

Not really. Before the Chinese goverment locked down Wuhan millions had traveled about that nation. The Chinese government is lying.

Maybe in total numbers except lying China BUT you have to look at per capita and the numbers of other deaths for flu and other diseases and the number of cases and test for GODs sake! Just X number of deaths mean nothing and 3 or 4k deaths over 3 or 4 months is a nothing amount in a country with 359mil people!

Can’t have this conversation without RGIII.

The press ruins these kids as much as anything else, along with ownership, especially in the case of RGIII.
