    Seems to be equally as deadly at minimum, perhaps more. Either way C19 is clearly showing to not be the Black Plague v2020 as some predicted.

    So because those two got the disease, no one is immune?

    Somebody is getting grumpy. Your failure to contribute to the conversation while being insulting is usually a dead give away!

    It destroys your claim entirely.

    I don't know why I waste moments of my life on you who speaks disparagingly and in such a vile revolting manner about a city in crisis, a city with hundreds of deaths every day. I won't waste another second of my life on you after this comment, you don't deserve that much of it.

    Hey I agree and exactly what many including myself a month ago. Most of the left on here strongly disagreed only to use it as an attack on Trump.

    I'm sorry, but I'm not following your, "I F---ing LUV Science!" explanation.

    I was wondering why you were bothering too. Others here, who vehemently disagree with me, at least have a position that they are arguing for. You seemed to not have a position about this discussion, or my positions, you simply seemed to dislike me personally.

    Which is fine. If you ever want to discuss real issues in an intelligent and fact based manner, I will welcome you back with open arms.

    Fact based....i guess. Who cares though when you are comparing apples to oranges?

    We're ready for the flu every year. We know a lot about it. We know it's coming. We even develop a shot every year specifically designed to combat it.

    We knew nothing about covid-19. We weren't ready. We didn't know it was coming.

    You can not conclude that this is worse than the flu. They are not comparable....not yet anyway.

    It's like taking the first two tests in a class. First one you studied a lot for and the 2nd you didn't. You can't conclude the 2nd test was harder than the first just because you did worse on it.

    This epic failure is literally a page taken out of Animal Farms. The would-be lab coats thought they knew better than everyone. They thought they had a *handle* on it. It's called government, by the consent of the governed. Neither Fauci nor Birx campaigned on behalf of the people of this country.

    Thus they should've had no power to dictate social policy.

    You know that's a very well thought out point, was the flu worst than corona when it started before anyone knew how to challenge it? Great post thanks.

    The scariest part of NY is as of today the positive rate of tests is 40%, that's a crazy number compared to other places.

    Keep in mind these death counts are in approximately 30 day time span.

    Influenza tends to be Oct-May.

    I don't think Trump saved millions of lives because I don't think millions of lives were ever at stake. It is your conjecture that social distancing is the only reason we are looking at well shy of 100,000 dead, So in that scenario then yes Trump would get the credit for the national call for social distancing as he called for it daily and did so numerous times. I give a crap less if you give him credit, the general population will. You don't matter in Nov., they do.


    What are you babbling about end of the year? We have multiple years worth of flu deaths numbers to pull from. Not estimates. If the latest estimates on C19 are correct then yeah, bad year of flu level deaths from C19. Math does not lie.

    You continue to lose ground with every post, it might be best if you walk away from this thread now because you just look damn silly trying to spin this to your narrative.

    True.
    Early screaming heads had dead bodies piled in the streets from C19. Looks like they were grossly over reacting thankfully.

    What about it? I don't take any responsibility for an idiot of a NY mayor or his idiot commissioner. When I see an idiot I'll call them an idiot no matter what party they're affiliated with. That's the difference between democrats and repuglicans, at least we have some integrity, you don't.

    Democrats have integrity but they interfered in patient-client relationships for COVID-19, ROFL. The party of hypocrisy knows no bounds.

    What are you talking about, "Democrats interfered in patient-client relationships" how? The republican party of idiocy has no scruples, no morals and devoid of any integrity in the lot of you.

    new information is coming out that this virus may of been in the country since November or December, Trump should have let that be known as that could change the models big time

    we may be basing these shutdowns on bad data, which creates bad models

    Trump may of destroyed the economy with his lies this time

    well, kinda true, the truth is most do not do social distancing and hand washing correctly, most come into contact with others or something they have contaminated at some point

    The exact opposite is true.

    Two glaring examples are the sexual assault allegations against biden and kavenaugh. You can't get any more hypocritical than the left has been on that issue. Another is crime involving whites and minorities. The coverage is similar to the kavenaugh/biden example.

    If it fits the political agenda of the left.....mass coverage. If not.....crickets.

    Hilarious you even attempted to claim the left has integrity.

    every country is doing shutdowns, either Trump is dumbly following them rather then leading, or they are correct, which is it? would the Trump task force lie to us?

    course with Trump, he knew the economy was crashing, you think he would do this to have something to blame the economic crash on other then himself?
