Corona Panic Poll

[Oldschoolone]

This is serious shit. Anyone who is minimizing it is absolutely stupid

There haven't been quarranteens like this in the US since polio. Was polio a conspiracy? I understand people are scared and so they want to believe it's not serious. It is very serious and it could absolutely crush our economy for years to come. We should be doing everything we can to stomp this thing out

I agree. Look what's going in New York state. The Big Apple is getting rocked. To think this is a hoax is and people voting they are getting played? Low IQ bottom feeders. Even the Orange cheeto went 180 lol

I'm living what's going on there , it's no joke trust me. 3 weeks from now people will see, for now let them believe they are safe if it makes the feel better, there really isn't anything you can do if you get it anyway, but it would help if you had a hospital bed in case you needed one, where I am they are all filled up with people on ventilators, think about that for one minute. It's scary shit

Read the national statistical Archives. Just over 25000. In YEAR 1 only. Your missing the additional 9 years. In total in 9 years 60.8 million in the us had H1N1 with a death rate of 6 percent so yea far more deadly than this virus

I agree spreads fast but how you beat that is have immune people like me, with those not immune so it doesn’t spread. That has been the major strategy of many virus and works really well. Shutting things down won’t help

Ok now I know you're full of crap. Stop posting so much misinformation. You obviously don't know what you're talking about and I can't believe you'd lie about having something so serious.

those are published numbers. Do some research.

You made up numbers

Lied about being sick

Came here to spread false information

I've done my research, that is how I know you don't know what the hell you're talking about.

No there's not, OMG. They are testing two drugs that have been around for 20+ years. The combination MAY improve conditions but there isn't any data available YET to draw anytjimh conclusive. It's not FOR COVID-19, they are simply trying something with 'hope' that it improves conditions in patients.

This is true, they are testing two drugs, no evidence yet that they help

All the test show it is cured in 6 days.

It's still being tested, they did have a few people it worked for but it's not decided yet whether it was the drug or not. Read about it. Not just one article, alll the information

Paranoid enough to limit leaving the house. I’m even having groceries delivered and disinfecting. My main stress comes from the physical-social isolation. I am a high energy, outgoing individual.

Glad you and your wife recovered, bro.

The math here needs a little work, however. Quick calculation of 32,000 (rounded) to 1% gives us 320. No calculator required. Deaths at 414 means we have around 1.3% fatality rate, 13x higher than 0.1%.

But we also have two opposing forces against any of these conclusions, making everything fudge at the moment. Nearly all these cases are fresh, meaning many of them will yet die and raise that fatality rate. And we also know the US has screwed the pooch pretty hard on having tests available, so the actual number of infected could easily be 5x, 10x, 20x or more of the 32,356 figure. We really have no real clue yet. Having a much higher "infected" figure will lower any calculated fatality rate.

Therefore, with an unknown infected rate (that, even if known, is growing almost exponentially anyway) and a fatality rate still in progress, none of these numbers are settled.

The Johns Hopkins count now is 35,345 infected and 473 dead for the US. It's still spiking up -- both from the epidemic spreading and tests becoming available.

A better measure of a real fatality rate might be visible in South Korea where they've weathered the first wave of the disease. They still have a great many infected and recovering, and therefore may yet die. It's currently 8,961 infected and 111 dead (check that ARCGIS map). That's higher than 1%, and with more deaths coming that'll only climb. AND, most importantly, they had a FAR BETTER response to the epidemic than we could manage. Quick quarantines, drive-thru testing with fast results, etc. They're like an advanced society and we're 2nd world in comparison. Sucks. So I wouldn't assume we'll do as well as they did. Maybe we'll have a 2% fatality rate in the end, and... 5-10% population eventually infected? No one knows of course, but if those figures are close then it'll be 30,000,000 infected and 600,000 dead. Far worse than any flu season. We'll see.

Excellent post choc!

My point is even if it gets to 1 Mil dead that’s very small compared to our total population. Shutting everything down and behaving as if it’s the end of the world will only make it worse. If it kills 50 million ok maybe we get scared

Jesus christ, please don't make any more posts on this topic.

He is advocating for exactly what you're against. And the numbers he's giving you are with all the things you're against being put into place. The virus completely obliterated your reading comprehension skills. You should be very worried.

 

[Intense]

If you live in an area where your stores shelves are stocked, grab everything you need right now, trust me

Don’t listen to this guy.


That is precisely the mindset that is one of the many issues with this whole thing.

There will be enough toilet paper for you bud, if not, use old shirts. It’s not the end of the world. Contributing to the mass hysteria is not helping the issue.

 

[Intense]

The only folks who need to be prepping are the elderly and the immune suppressed. I could understand their need to stock up on some necessary items so that they do not need to leave their house as frequently.

Chances are the majority of us that are healthy are just going to carry the virus and may not even have symptoms. We just need to do our part in not contributing to the spread, washing our hands, etc.

 

[E.J.D]

People need to remove the emotional response to the virus and look at the facts... The big picture is this is nothing that is going to wipe out the country. NY had 15200 confirmed cases and 115 deaths. Not to sound insensitive but that's nothing to worry about in the large picture of life. Other things kill more people daily. No need to panic just do your part to not spread it by basic hygiene everyone should be doing. The fear/panic driven by the media is part of the problem. We need to resume our normal lives and get back to it. We never shut down like this for H1N1 which killed hundreds of thousands of people.

25k cases now... but you’re right. We have no choice but to get back to life. Otherwise, we’re gonna be worse off.

it makes more sense for the immune compromised or immediate household of the immune-deficient to be able to either receive paid medical leave, unemployment or at the very least disability benefits and be allowed to stay home for a few weeks until health care officials are more confident in there ability to handle this thing. Instead of shutting down the entire country.

also, we as citizens should be allowed to punch mother fuckers who come to work sick as fuck in the face. And also, I should be state tax exempt considering my state officials totally dropped the ball in dealing with this thing.

Moving forward, our country should practice and get good at a more isolated foreign policy.

 

[Multislacking]

I have to say, I'm kind of impressed there are 0 panics so far.

Let's see if I can turn it up a notch...Now they are saying "permanent lung damage"....."this isn't the same virus that hit wuhan, it has mutated".....and "it is no longer age discriminating". In other words, otherwise healthy people are dropping dead now. I've heard of two guys in my state that got to feeling a little better and then dropped from heart attacks from the toll of the virus.

I went from a 1 to about a 3 on my concern level this week.

Odd. Does ASF have a new found quality poster?

[HFO3]

Just this year 18,000 influenza deaths ...
H1n1 in 2009 infected 61Million but that hardly made the news.
This is BS and there’s something else going on that would never have been passed with this “crisis” I wonder what’s in the stimulus bill that the senate just passed???

I know it sounds a lot like “tinfoil” time, maybe it is, I’m a numbers guy and these covid 19 numbers don’t add up for a pandemic global lockdown

Lol ya know man I’m not an alarmist or conspiratorial at all, but I’ve studied Numbers for a living for decades bro, I’ve applied my skill set for many different reasons people get sick and people die... covid 19 is not a pandemic, it’s a blip on a screen and that is it. So when I listen to these fuckers talk, I find massive holes in their stories this is the most unreasonable event I’ve ever witnessed in all my days on this planet, this 100% wreaks corrupt politics, mandatory vaccinations, massive shift of wealth, destruction of “trumps economy” and a few others

“Extra strength tinfoil hat” please place it snugly on your head
