stirs

You guys are too into "hating or loving" your gov officials. Currently, we are between 1.1 and 1.2% death rate, similar to S Korea. Italy on the other hand is close to 9%. All numbers change each day, but even though I am no fan of the current president, NO government was ready or could have been ready for this. Get your head screwed on right. Grind your axes when this is over. If all we offer is our hatred of our political parties, we don't add much to the conversation. Normally, governments have a year and a half headstart for the yearly flu. Not many have budgets to have anything more than "hypothetical plans" in place for a sudden pandemic.

What are the main constitutional rights you are seeing infringed upon presently?

Thinking everyone wants it to be these two, but in the end, will have only needed Andy Taylor

Reading the article I posted earlier would make my statement make a lot more sense. Explains a lot of NYC woes also, that and the fact that they are packed in so tightly that social distancing and not touching surfaces is almost impossible. NYC is almost like it's own cruise ship.

I think you'd benefit from more time with your beautiful lady

I hate the warmer weather that has begun all of a sudden, but it will be to our benefit

But Martial Law sounds so cool, and 72% of people on Twitter even spell it correctly

If she wasn't beautiful, would that change the date? Joking

Maybe by the beginning of April, the kids will be able to return to school

The hysteria is driving people crazy. It builds on itself. Look closer at the article. The virus is not passed as easily as everyone leads you to believe. In fact, part of the article is saying the increase in deaths is close to the same with people with underlying conditions as the seasonal flu. These are numbers, not scare tactics. US is actually in a much better place than all the "starved for clicks" people are projecting. Each article in the report speaks to situations we are hearing about each day. I think it is a great article and the more you understand the facts, the better decisions you can make as a responsible adult. Stupid, privileged teenagers only care about themselves, no matter how hysterical the media presents stuff. Give me facts please.

As far as data, good info here. Perspective https://medium.com/six-four-six-nine/evidence-over-hysteria-covid-19-1b767def5894

NYC and Little Italy. Sorta hate to think that way, but there could be a similarity

Yes, but I can't catch their disease, therefore I don't care, right?

People have different reactions to the virus https://www.sacbee.com/news/coronavirus/article241363476.html

Italy had the first reported death of virus on Feb 24. US was Feb 29. And officially for the Worldometers site, we were at 57 deaths yesterday and 49 today. Not sure of their 24 hour cycle for the US.

Our total losses for yesterday was 57 people, today, will be similar I think. 56 right now Hopefully, we can flatten the curve as some were hoping

US, Germany and Iran, all have just under 20k cases as of this evening, although the death rates are all over the place

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/ Changes all day long. Our cases per million is rising as we test all over the country, but I feel bad for Italy, they are a mess. Their population is much older on average but their numbers tell a horrible story. Blew by China for sure

changes every day ours has come waaaaay down because we are finally testing. all new cases are probably ones that have been there, just not accounted for. Might turn into Italy tomorrow, who knows, but Germany has a very high number of cases and so does S Korea, and both have low death rates. So far, Italy death rate is about 5 times higher than ours

Death rate is a much better barometer than total cases in my opinion.

It was a week, now 2 weeks?

It was part of the reason I mentioned having some 20 somethings in the military go through the 2 weeks and be coming up clean by next week. Would be great for all the military hospital ships not to be having to worry about anything as they possibly work with people. Anyway, I would volunteer for it if I were in the military and all my health records looked good

96% of people who are tested, with symptoms, are negative for Coronavirus. Lots of stuff going around right now, so hopefully you guys are dealing w allergies On a side note, if we find out that this is like other virus attacks, then we will have a lot of Americans who are immune within 2 weeks. I have thought already about what and where I could volunteer if needed. But that would be after I get it and get over it. Think our death rate as of now is around 1.28% The malaria drug has everybody hoping
