Its like stopping the flu or common cold
I am convinced the Rats seeded it again. Bunch of folks have gotten it in my locale, including me and my wife. Won’t be long and it should burn itself out around here. That should have been done long ago
Virus gonna Virus.
translation: Now that this pandemic is no longer politically useful to Democrats, the Slimes wants it ended.
The only things raging are our Deep State pols.
It’s a virus of the same strain as the common cold. We had no chance of stopping it.
The same people that whine about not doing enough to stop the virus are the same ones that believe if we spend enough money, we can change the planet’s climate.
Open up, wear masks if you wish, socially distance, wash your hands and stay home if you are sick, care for the sick and help them out best we can. Carry on.
Manufactured virus, manufactured crisis. It was always about the election.
it IS too late to stop it. Even if the outbreak subsides, there will always be a case or two here and there that can cause it to spread, reoccur, etc. Look at things like polio, bubonic plague, etc. these things are defeated but they always come back, although to a much much lesser degree.
anyone who says otherwise is a liar. Even small pox can come back if the conditions are right. I am not immune to it. My oldest sister is. She got the immunization but i didn’t.
I was convinced in March.
We are shutdown by Fear and not by the Virus.
After the election, the Experts and the Pundits will begin to sagely advise us that the time for Fear has passed and that we ought to pretty much go back to normal.
The problem isn’t epidemiological. The problem is politics.
Just in time for election day
“Some” as in anyone with a functioning brain. The only hope of stopping a virus like this is VERY early by rounding up and quarantining everyone near the initial outbreak site. Once it escapes, it’s absolutely impossible to completely stop it. I still stick by my guess that some corrupt nincompoop flunky was stealing the lab animals at the Wuhan/Fauci lab and selling them under the table at the Mystery Meat Market nearby. You could get away with that for a long time before you got the wrong lab animal, and it could spread beyond containment before you knew it was out.
I have been saying this for months now. It is a virus, you cannot stop a microscopic living organism from spreading no matter what you do. Viruses by their very nature will spread, that is what they do, that’s what they will always do for the rest of eternity.
We see states with Democratic governors, and even parts of Europe that has strict lock down early on wanting to go back to the strict lockdown’s. The first time they said it would stop the spread of the virus, if we all just wore masks it’ll prevent the virus from spreading, etc. The states have been doing that since April or May and continues to spread in cases continue to increase despite all these precautions. Every single thing they tried failed, and yet they intend to go back to doing the thing that failed again thinking it might work this time. The only reason they are doing that is to placate the terrified Karen’s who sings they are going to die if they get the mail and their neighbor walks by with their dog not wearing a mask.
I agree with everything that has been said on this thread, but there’s one additional action needed: Do whatever is necessary to make sure that the Chicom government can’t do this again. I favor covert action to undermine and bring down that wretched government. They’re certainly not shy about trying to undermine our government, so the gloves should come off.
Having good therapeutics and potential vaccines is great, and the progress developing them is amazing.
What this means is that we can't be in perpetual lockdowns, and the "cult of the face mask" can stuff it. Vigilance is key-proper hygiene,use your head, and live life.
It does seem to be unstoppable. It is ravaging the North East despite the measures the RAT politicians put in place. And what’s up with the Netherlands? They’re really spiking.
And Slow Joe’s “plan” to “control the virus” smacks of Ozymandiaus.
The only way a virus stops is when there are no more hosts.
You remove hosts by making sure the virus dies as soon as it enters your system.
Unless and until that happens, the virus will continue to “rage.”
The lockdowns were meant to “flatten” the curve—to allow our medical systems to handle the inflow of patients.
In our area of MA, there is an increase in cases—because we are testing everything that moves. But in the two primary hospitals in town there are exactly 0 patients in intensive care because of Covid. And 6 patients hospitalized. In April/May, those numbers were pretty significant—with the ICUs almost filled up. And hundreds of patients in the hospitals.
With numbers such as those, there is no need for a lockdown.
Your numbers may vary in “your” state. The issue is that I don’t live in “your” state. That is why national policies on something like this are not good—they are stupid.
If the ICUs in your area are filling up—then close down stuff until it levels off. In other areas, where the system is not burdened...get back to BAU.
