Your, and others, panic spread 100x faster then this flu. You dwell on every single death and follow the msm assertion that every single death would be avoided if the economy is shut down. In fact, there are fewer flu deaths this year then last.
Yep
I see.
You’re signaling that you are also on China’s payroll.
Figures.
I agree with you. It’s absolutely possible that mitigation efforts took us from 3 million if we did nothing to 60,000. And I think it will be less than 60,000.
But at least Rush did say we can’t back off yet.
And California may be investigating herd immunity, but I seriously doubt there is herd immunity. If the virus was spreading earlier, there should have been a lot of cases of unexplained ARDS. And there weren’t. That tells me it wasn’t spreading earlier.
I never panicked. Not once. I never watch or have watched ONE minute of MSM coverage. It was obvious though that the virus was dangerous BECAUSE of the way the government of every single nation in the world treated it.

I go once a week to the market. I wear a mask, hat and old clothes. When I return I go to a “wash area” we have set up where I take off my clothes and they go into a bag plastic bag. I then immediately take a hot shower. The clothes and the towels I used in the bathroom are washed immediately in the washing machine in hot water, then drier heated. The grocery packages to the extent possible are wiped with a disinfectant and a bleach solution. I also clean off the car handles, steering wheel and anywhere else touched with disinfectant and bleach, and then proceed to also clean the doorknobs where I came in.
This is our normal procedure now.
You are an effing retard. Are you wearing dirty underwear while chained in your momma’s basement for your own well-being?
One of the most dangerous and effective aspects of the ChiCom bio-weapon Covid-19 is that it sets Americans against each other, instead of against the ChiCom launchers of the bio-weapon.
A key attribute of this ChiCom bio-weapon is that its immediate effects do not rise to the level of a Pearl Harbor or 9-11, inviting immediate massive retaliation. Instead, it slowly weakens its enemy targets via several paths:
1. the disease itself, overburdening medical systems across Europe, resulting in
2. the social-distance economic shutdown and subsequent depression, and
3. now Americans are set bitterly against each other instead of against China, which launched the bio-weapon in the first place. And the EU is collapsing.
From the ChiCom POV, its win-win-win.
Well put.
How much of a head start did New York get in catching the virus?
The virus had probably made greater inroads in New York before social distancing was imposed.
You being on China’s payroll explains everything you’ve posted in the last couple of months very simply.
Sounds like loads of fun.
Can you tell us approximately how old you are, what state you live in and what you do for a living?
Oh, our bitter assault on the ChiComs is coming.
We’re capable of doing more than one thing at a time
(or, more properly, in sequence). We need to deal with
our own Swamp Bureaucrats first.
Personally I expect that the ChiCom princelings will pull a Nikita Kruschev and offer up Xi’s head on a platter to try and save their supply chain business. We should not fall for it.
And then you try to smash it in everyone’s face by boldly proclaiming “Thanks China” with one of your famous colorful posters.
I don’t know that we are saying anything differently....the government encourages mitigation efforts knowing that some will be extra diligent, some will act with only a heightened precaution but are occasionally sloppy, and the rest ..hit or miss. Many will still do as minimally as they feel they can get away with... It’s those models of death rates based on the above situation that seem questionable for public policy. I am aware that 15 per cent of those WHO DO GET THE VIRUS get sick enough to need hospitalization and enough of those packing into the situation can make life miserable for the hospital systems.
We live in eastern King County... the place where we had the first cases and deaths in the country. My wife and I have both worked and volunteered at the ill-fated Life Care Center in Kirkland. I was one of the first here to say that this was a serious problem. And we were very concerned about the projections from the University of Washington that predicted tens of thousands of deaths just in our part of the state.
But guess what? At the same time that our governor issued his “stay at home order” the ICU units at local hospitals were already starting to empty out and the deaths were tapering off. Why? Because VIRUSES TAKE THE LOW HANGING FRUIT FIRST, vulnerable people die and then the rest of the population adapts and lives with it. Our statewide numbers have made it to just over 400 and are now predicted to reach 600 by August. In the parts of the state that have already had it... it has run its course. The virus just keeps finding little pockets of people who haven't been exposed and their vulnerable folks are still dying, but we are talking about much smaller groups.
On the fire department that I retired from 11 people tested positive... only 1 had any symptoms at all, but they were so mild that he was still coming to work. This virus is the most overhyped illness in the history of our country. It never was going to kill as many people as the flu season of 2017-18, "stay at home" orders or not.
You should try it, it might keep you from getting sick and dying as a result.
You don’t know anyone who has died from this yet?
