I’m guessing that you’re one of those who is so dug in that nothing will make a difference.

you got proof?

oh some “doctor” what does he know?

any more proof?

oh the “white house” orange man bad.

I don’t really care what you choose to believe. It’s the internet. Next time I’ll just use memes.

some people care more about the argument itself than the actual topic.

cheers to ya. Have a great weekend.

Is the company allowing a Voluntary Leave of Absence which allows some of us bottom-feeders to go fly elsewhere (i.e. military, EMS, Cargo) until this blows over.....

you could ALWAYS go military if you can get them to put you on orders. Doesn’t even have to be flying orders...

the orange man (your words) is the one who is making the decisions. not some "expert" on youtube.

go educate yourself and stop pretending this is a witch hunt. when I said give me source I meant data. Studies, Results, FACTS. not a youtube video which didn't even address all your claims.

You claimed all flu deaths are being marked covid deaths. Neither of your links suggested nor proved that. That was you taking it a step further.
You also claimed antibody testing has proven 25% of us have had this, provided no source and is not only a baseless claim, but can easily be called BS because the CDC themselves have already said that the FDA has not approved any of these tests and they are completely worthless.


So before you claim I am dug in, look in the mirror bud. Good weekend.

I'm so impressed with your knowledge. Before this happened, I wasn't aware of just how many dual qualified pilots and medical doctors/epidemiologists we had here. Maybe we can start a sub group where guys we can go in and chat with guys like elmetal and get prescriptions and virtual doc visits right off APC. Seems like you are in good company el, there are hundreds of guys here overflowing with this knowledge about how this outbreak really works and how to contain it.

When you get back to flying, play close attention to those states between ORD and DEN. I’ve got some oceanfront property there to sell ya.

Hey man, have you ever openly criticized this president? What about the last one? You know, made strong statements about either? Even provided some supporting evidence ?
Or are you one of those rare individuals that agreed with and supported everything that BHO and DJ did/are doing?

Because I’m about 100% sure you’ve had a strong opinion one way or the other, or maybe both, about the presidency in your lifetime. Have you ever actually been the president? I’m thinking not.

So so then tell what is the difference between your question of and stating strong opinions about everything from the president to the postman, and the above poster’s stance on the Covid situation?

Trying to **** someone down by stating they aren’t a specialist in the exact area of the debate is a cudgel and a crutch. Have a take or not. But enough of this “...welll I didn’t realize your were a whatever at your other job” BS anytime someone has an opinion. Because you damn well have some of your own, and goodness knows you’re not a specialist in everything you have a stance on.
