A last grasp at normalcy bias. Looking over dozens of posts here, it's become evident to me that debating whether the virus "is real or not" is really just a pointless strawman argument that's inherently designed to deflect facts. I'd presume that there's some validity to its existence. After all, does anyone honestly think the power players and elite who are no doubt in control of this chaos would not at least possess a real pathogen as "evidence"? But I digress.. In regards to the case and death numbers that everyone keeps watching, aside from the obvious question (how can you prove those numbers are real) let's just assume they are in fact accurate. Ok, now what? There were literally over 80,000 deaths in the United States alone due to flu the season before last. So, when Friday ultimately arrives and we're near 10 thousand deaths (allegedly), the death count would then need to climb 8X higher before it even rivals the deadly flu season from 2 years ago. Now, keep mind "exponential growth" (suddenly everyone's infatuated with that word) would no doubt need to occur in order to reach 80K+ deaths, and it should also be noted that exponential growth actually happens with most flu seasons to some degree but certainly in seasons that are exceptionally bad. The unfortunate folks who are currently dying from COVID-19 (both young and old) are succumbing to the same issues that flu patients generally die from. (Pneumonia, heart failure etc) Make no mistake, each every loss of life is tragic and should never be discounted. However, we have never shut the country down for the exceedingly terrible flu seasons we've had in the past. Therefore, I don't see any evidence for why we should be be shutting down the country now for COVID-19. I invite you to change my mind. |

If it is a hoax, sure is taking a lot of people to pull it off. Totally respect those who think it's a hoax though. Hell, it could be. But, I now have 5 family members with the Hoax. 4 in NY. 1 in TX. All got it within 40 hours of each other ... almost all high level healthcare. The doc I do research with, has 40 suspected hoax cases - just this week. "If you come across a Sasquatch ... just remember two things. #1. Don't Run. #2. Don't Piss It Off." |

A last grasp at normalcy bias. The virus is no hoax, BUT the reaction is... When this is over, if ever, the world will be a changed place. This is by design! Don't think there's a difference between a D, or R... Two wings of the same bird. They each flap independently, but the course doesn't change. Each pulling on different emotions to steer the sheep wherever they want. |

People in China were getting sick. But this was their body responding to 5G posioning. Takes about six months for the body to create a viral response to 5G poison. Count 6 months ahead to whenever it goes live. Then you will have your real deaths. Which they will say, probably, is a new strain. And put you in lockdown again. |

An aerosolized 1 micron virus, exhaled by the millions can be carried hundreds of feet in a breeze. 6 feet is not safe. One infected person in a building with circulated air will spread it throughout the building. There really is no safe place in NYC. Everyone is going to be exposed to covid in a matter of 18 days. That's based on cases doubling every 2.5 days. In 18 days, cases in NYC will reach population maximum. Fucking doom May God have mercy! The thing is there have been cases inside the USA for 2 months at least. At the stated RO rate of 3 to 4 and an average incubation period of 5.2 days, the entire worlds population should have been infected by now with many millions of dead. At a minimum, the killer virus is grossly overrated. Total death rates would need to be at least 5 times higher than normal for this thing to be as deadly as propagated. Where are the dead? BTW, that would be about 50,000 people PER DAY. Where's the beef? |

We are 1-2 weeks behind Italy. Italy did take stronger measures and had more aggressive enforcement and less people leaving but the 'stay at home' is pretty effective in NY as a whole. I think we will see peaking by next week and then reduction the following week. |

"Man, I'm gonna lay some straight truth on you. The world is flat." Ten minutes after explaining fundamental Newtonian Motion and a dozen other pieces of evidence that demonstrates the world is a sphere and .... *drumroll* "You're a fuckin' sheep, man!" "What is your degree in?" "I don't needs no college." "Ever had Calculus? Physics? General Physical Science?" "Fuck all that shit!" "What you do for a livin'?" "I teach jiu-jitsu." or "I'm on disability for *insert usually bullshit diagnosis or serious mental health issues*" or "I'm in real estate and I'm a citizen journalist, too." "Oh. Ever watched a ship sail over the horizon?" "No, why?" "Oh, no reason." |

User ID: 28178764 United States 04/01/2020 09:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My sister in Oregon, a nurse, is slowly recovering. She was in excellent physical condition, exercises daily, no vices, eats right, etc. She refused to go to the hospital at first saying, "I won't be part of the the overload problem". Finally, her family took her to the ER where it was confirmed to be CV and they gave her IVs. She is still at home. She was ill over 3 weeks. I am worried that she will still be contagious and will infect her family and grand kids. I am also concerned that she may relapse or have organ damage. Ref the nothingburgers, I don't even reply. Not worth my time. There is such as thing as an FF, conspiracy, coverup, etc. Those happen and are real. CV is very real. |
