Again fake news.. This is not due to the virus killing too many people. it is the reaction of the government shuddering businesses which would normally bury these bodies.
get your head out of the sand
Well said Brody.
No one will listen to you it seems which is a shame.
The reaction will affect hundreds of millions to save thousands. Its a ridiculous situation and it is based on fake models.
It has already "flattened" but our economy will suffer for YEARS.
Great job to those of you who are panicked. You're weak and acting in fear without the benefit of observation.

The main thing that frustrates me is the timeline of this whole mess. The Wuhan Virus has likely been here since late November or early December. It was well documented that the Chinese Doc tried to blow the whistle during last week of December. Obviously, it takes time to even discover the new virus, run test etc. If it’s really as contiguous as they think, I would bet it has been here since Thanksgiving. Maybe earlier.
So all the shutdowns were over three months late. China and the WHO of course didn’t handle it properly. I just think millions more have already had it, and the true mortality rate is closer to other viruses. Time will tell I guess. I’m hoping the downward trend of deaths/infections continues and we can all get back to what we love.

I agree that it has been around for a long while as that appears to be a logical outcome. But.. And its a big but..... Why are the hospitals all of a sudden overflowing?

I honestly think that in a few months when the data comes out we will see that the vast majority of the population has had it thus driving down the mortality rate.

typical. I wish the media would revert back to reporting facts instead of opinions. Opinions are why we are in this mess. It’s completely unbelievable that the whole world shuts down over the “FLU.” People get a grip. The world is not ending.

Yep, and if there was any integrity in the media, they would report:

-Deaths are skewed severely due to under-testing
-Tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, are asymptomatic and carry the virus without ever knowing.
-Hydroxychloroquine works.
-Suicides are up in astronomical numbers from people losing their livelihoods and being driven into poverty.
-Suicide hotlines are overwhelmed.

But.... orange man bad.

Well if we survive I’m glad I got to read the last 4 pages of straight train wreck. This thread is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read. At no point in it’s rambling, incoherent responses was anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone reading this thread is now dumber for having read it.

Thank you gentlemen.
