You saying there is a vaccine?
it appears so....
so why incite the public into a panic, and literally stop the productive worker ant(s) from producing?Annual deaths from influenza are 20-60k. It would take 20 years to get to 1.7 million deaths.
As you can see, your claim that COVID isn’t going to kill as many as influenza is unsupported.

I think that is all Trump was trying to do, not scare the pants off people so that they refuse to go to work even though its relatively safe.
Cuomo had an upbeat presser today.
1. More people leaving the hospital each of the last 8-days.
2. Fewer people entering the hospitals the last few days. (a trend or a blip? we'll know next week)
Not to jinx us, but it looks from the last few days that the US curve is bending downward to a peak, like the EU appears to be doing. We'll know that in the next week or two.

I would say information like this is why the lockdowns must continue. We might, just might be starting to make some headway against this thing. Here is some other good information to report.
The percentage rate of increase in confirmed cases per day has been declining for a few days now:
March 24, 2020 - United States - 54,916
March 25, 2020 - United States - 68,489 - 24.7% increase
March 26, 2020 - United States - 85,594 - 24.97% increase
March 27, 2020 - United States - 104,256 - 21.8% increase
March 28, 2020 - United States - 123,776 - 18.7% increase
March 29, 2020 - United States - 142,224 - 14.9% increase
the trend seems to be going the right way. Trump's new date of 4/30 is looking possible.
And you're cool with that? What happened to "we must lift restrictions now!" ? Your lord and master changed his tune and you just dance merrily along?
He never said NOW, he said as soon as its safe. and yes, I am cool with it. We all hoped Easter was doable, but it appears that its not.
what did your lord and master Wolf Blitzer say about it? or was it your lordess and mistress Pelosi?
