Why was the 2009 pandemic not taken ANYWHERE NEAR as seriously as COVID-19?

No it is not.

Stop parroting ridiculous cherry-picked distortions and absurd media fear-mongering to this forum.

 

HOGWASH!
Obama geared up and Tramp dumped the government workers and who maintain the gear in the stockpile!

 

Please point out the error.,

 

Pure HOGWASH!
It took 6 months for 1,000 Americans to die under Obama, COVIDIOT Tramp let OVER 6,000 Americans die in barely 3 months.

 

1. It was 30-ish days to get from 0 - 6,000.
2. Not Trump's fault

 

In what...a couple weeks???

 

You just make stuff up as you go along don’t you. lol

 

No. YOU ground the immensely, dishonest, ignorant distortion that "<Corona> is now the number 3 killer of Americans, behind cancer and heart attacks" because that is what you posted, not what you plopped down in graph form, and that is NOT what the graph says... in any remotely adult rational, honest way.

Stated another way, last night only one person died in my small town, a suicide. Now I could then go around the next day claiming that "suicide" is the primary cause of death in my town, and that would make me either a) feeble-minded, or b) a purposeful liar, no c) answer.

 

You understand that simply saying “Nuh uh” doesn’t refute the data and citation he gave you right?

 

Thanks for the block quote, gets the irrefutably sound and complete argument I posted out to more people concerned about the ridiculous fear-mongering of this hoax of a moral panic.

 

Exactly. If they repeat it enough, might come true.

Thing is, there are a LOT of people who believe, not that the virus is a hoax, but the media-driven momentum could very well be a hoax. Face it, liberals are easily led -- but currently without a leader. What else would they turn to for guidance besides leftist MSM? Bless their heart, they miss their Obaaama.

 

If you had forehand knowledge that the next day two people would commit suicide and the day after that four people would commit suicide and the day after that, eight people would commit suicide, and that exponential upward trend was going to continue for weeks, than that would make you correct. If you have no such reason to think that will happen in the coming days, weeks & months, than yes, you would be feeble-minded to say so.

 

Since March 1. It will likely be at least 36K dead in the US by May 1.

 

WTF?

So the virus is real but warning about it is a hoax?

On what planet?

 

Spare it, and really, get honest. Stop scare-mongering using distortions you parroted out of dishonest media, and moreover, distortions that are based on PURE CONJECTURE, not facts.

You know and I certainly know that Coronavirus is -not- a leading cause of death in the U.S. other than by utilizing some childishly dishonest distortions with respect to time frames. But do keep on repeating it over and over, I expect it.

 

Something completely unheard of six months ago becomes the number three reason people die in this country in 30 short days (0 - 6,000 deaths.) How is that not a bright shiny red flag to you that this thing means business? March 1 - 0 deaths. April 1 - 6,000 deaths. May 1 prediction - 36,000 deaths is the LOW estimate. We've exceeded every low estimate by far, so far.

 

All government agencies and individuals i am aware of have taken covid-19 very seriously..

People saying otherwise are factually incorrect and just distributing hatrdcand division and should be ignored as.

 

And all that's left is how many times you will repeat the obvious dishonest distortion over and over and maybe over again. Again, not surprised.

 

Why didn't Obama close us down during H1N1 when 60 MILLION Americans became infected?

The hype is a hoax. And your posts are hype spreaders.

 

Focus honey. People are dying right the f#@k NOW

 

So what!!!!!! Yes it's sad,it's horrible,

That doesn't mean you get to be mad at people who had nothing to do with those deaths...

 

Nuff said

 

Some would be, but aren't dying right now. See how that works?

 

You know what let's go ahead and clear this all the way. From the site "worldometers.info"

Worldwide Deaths, January 1st - March 25th 2020 rounded roughly and as reasonable estimates:

Flu/Season 113,000
Malaria 228,000
Suicides 249,000
Traffic 314,000
HIV AIDs 391,000
Alcohol 582,000
Smoking 1,160,000
Cancer 1,900,000
Hunger 2,400,000

AND TO REPEAT FOR THE THICK-SKULLED, THIS IS JUST 3 MONTH DATA, not all year.

Now please go right ahead and tell us all how Coronavirus fits third into that without some massive amount of distortion/canard, can't wait for the answer, I realize the initial distortion was U.S. deaths, but let's do the whole world once and for all.

Tell us -exactly- how the numbers of Coronavirus deaths run such that somehow they rank 3rd in causes of death against, say, any old time period, but specifically the one I posted. Then tell us how the claim that Coronavirus is third in U.S. causes of death outside of MASSIVE excluded, and purposefully excluded context is anything other than absurdly dishonest.

 

What excuse will you use when this blows past total H1N1 deaths this month?
