Schools where I live are already the re closing for the fall. I guess my point is we can either do the hard work and get containment or we can continue to debate everything and let this virus keep running at full speed and watching our bookings keep dropping. So if wearing a mask or a clown suit for that matter will get this thing in check then I am in. Also one thing to some of the numbers remember this virus causes blood clotting and neurological symptoms independent of respiratory severity. So what may look like at right heart attack death or stroke may have been caused by COVID.
20% of all confirmed patients are in the hospital? Yesterday there were 77,000 cases so 16,000 went into the hospital? I find that hard to believe. We’d have tents at every street corner if that were the case.
As the scientists and math claim... this is the flu. Dr. Fauci says so himself. If the media actually reported 100% of the story instead of just the 10% that scares everybody it would be better to just let this play out as it wouldn’t be much worse than it is already. This could be over in 1-2 months. But since the media wants people to live in fear we have to cater to the people that think covid is certain death and drag this thing on for the next year or however long it takes to get a vaccine and have everyone at risk of losing their jobs. Even though, the end result will be something similar either way. Governor Cuomo even stated 66% of New York Covid patients were people obeying stay at home orders. So what did the lockdown really do?
