March 11, 20205 yr Administrator Just thought I'd create a thread for updates and discussion on the Coronavirus. As of right now there's about 120,000 cases worldwide with 4300 deaths.

Do we really need to keep saying it? That man is going to kill us all. 42 minutes ago, victoria foxton said: In other news: water is wet. 2 minutes ago, Faulkner said: How's about the rest of us quarantine anyone coming from FL? Specifically, anyone coming from one of those beaches that the governor failed to close down? Edited March 23, 20205 yr by Khan

To think that I would say Vladimir Putin is doing a better job at something than Donald [!@#$%^&*] Trump. This is what your idiocy has brought me to, America! Enjoy! Edited March 23, 20205 yr by Khan

March 23, 20205 yr Members This fool really thinks he can just "open up" the economy. Thank goodness I don't live in a red state that is not taking this seriously. They need to be banned.

It's just mostly a lot of panic mixed up with various numbers and the full story (or more of the story) is nowhere near being told. How many people of the case being diagnosed are asymptomatic (It seems like a lot). And of that number how many of them live with/closely associate with high risk people? How many of them have around higher risk people that have died from this or contacted this illness so far? What is the real trajectory for people that may die from this disease? I see a lot of stuff being thrown around and it seems misguide/often exaggerated to say the least. Also transmission, I would like to hear more stories about how people contacted/or at least think they contacted the illness. Were they around any sick people, did some one cough on them or what. It seems like people are acting like you can just be in the same room/less than six feet from someone with corona and get it. Even if they aren't showing symptoms or doing any sort of coughing, etc... Was it the likelyhood of contact the illness this way. There are a lot of questions that needs to be answered and it's all being pushed aside, and overrun by people panicking. And that's not really doing anybody any good. I know people are worried and scared, but the "He's going to kill us all" stuff is not going to happen. It's not. We're not all going to die from this. Most of us are not going to die from this. More people have died and will die from other things than coronavirus. Even taken into consideration that it's more contagious than other illnesses. There are things right now killing more people and will kill more people this year and in the future than coronavirus. People being concerned and scared is very understandable, but I do believe that most people in this country will survive in spite of this illness being around. And I do believe that a lot of people curbing their behaviors will help prevent more people getting it/death and a lot of people getting it are healthy and will be fine. We need to do what we can to help the high risk and those that are suffering with this illness, but all these people being afraid they are going to die (especially those that aren't high risk, have knowingly been exposed to anyone and don't have symptoms) is actually doing harm in some cases. And could also be contributing to some of the shortages of important resources (like people doing things like hoarding medical masks, sanitizers, going to emergency rooms when they really don't need to etc...)

I'm sure there are some, like Cuomo, who will try to thread the needle between people going back to work and loss of life - the loss of life that men like this see as worthwhile, anyway: Trump's White House, on the other hand, is full of people who believe if they bring about the end of the world. they will meet Jesus and be ascended to Heaven. Pence, Pompeo and Barr are all fine with killing us. That's what they have spent much of their lives being told is the endgame. That's what Dominionism is all about.
