Dude, you have no idea how ridiculous you sound in front of your fellow Freepers.
Apparently Trump is an alarmist like me/sarc
...He is holding a rare Sat afternoon presser including Coronavirus updates...
I doubt it. Won’t fit their narrative.
You’re the only one here that is panicking.
It seems this virus news really gets you spun up, like it’s somebody talking bad about your mother.
Why no one is talking about the 48,000 who will die from ordinary flu this season?
Yeah, I get so tired of those baseless accusations that people who post opinions that others don’t like are paid enemy operatives!
I get both sides. I get the people saying it’s no big deal, and I get the people saying it’s the next Black Plague that’s gonna wipe out a third of mankind!
I have no idea what the truth is, I see both sides, but I do wish that people would stop casting aspersions at fellow Freepers who simply see things differently.
Yeah, the hyperbole gets really absurd.
He’s not a paid troll, he’s just concerned. As am I, a little.
My sister’s a teacher and you wouldn’t believe the illnesses and sicknesses prevalent in high school, everything sweeps through her school.
I am a bit concerned at what would happen if they suddenly had spreading cases of corona virus through the kids and staff.
And no, I’m not a paid troll, either!
I keep hearing about paid trolls...
I have been accused, but I am not in on the deal...How much can one make as a paid troll?
Are trolls being paid per day, per post or per word?
Is there a paid troll ping list or something? Who is in charge?
100 dead from Flu a day isn't news?
$1,000 per post on any forum!
$2,000 per on Free Republic.
And all you have to do is find an article in public media, Drudge...Yahoo etc. and POST IT!
No bad groceries eh?
The truth is probably smack in the middle. The panic pushed by the Left is not necessary, but nothing wrong with good precautions. Here we are going into storm season anyway, preparedness just makes sense.
My husband DID pick up disinfectant in various forms from the $$ store today and some OTC meds. We were getting sloppy in wiping stuff down.
“100 dead from Flu a day isn’t news? “
Go find that article about 100 dying from flu today and post it for us.
I sure have missed out for the past 20 years...
What is 95,000 divided by 365?
If anything, I understated it I was being conservative.
Okay.
OCH: PREPARED FOR CORONAVIRUS, FLU POSES BIGGER RISK TO COMMUNITY
Tuscaloosa doctor says flu and other diseases are more deadly than COVID-19 in the U.S.
I have more if you want.
We are getting a bit of disinformation on this.... Trump said it was a woman, then Washington State said it was a man. Now they’re referring to it as “they.”
Earlier they said they had 3 cases, a woman in her 50’s with health issues, a young man and one other....
