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?
You are correct 15-20 percent of all confirmed cases require admission. Now you are seeing the problem with COVID. You don’t actually think China built a hospital in five days for the flu right. The fact that GA is building a field hospital is for the same reason. Add to it the average stay is fifteen nights and you got yourself a real problem.
