The Real World

[cuckoo bird]

Media out of control. They lie about the virus. It is not a pandemic or widespread. 1 out of 20 have gotten it. Just like any other flu bug. There was no need to order non-essential businesses to close. Now the media and crooked government has caused more problems with poverty, starvation, suicides, drug abuse. Get back to a normal life. Back to school. Open up the economy. Let people have freedom again.

The real world. 283K dead. 18+ million infections. A highly contagious virus that's a crapshoot on what it will do to you. An almost non-existent and thoroughly incompetent response to the pandemic from the word go from the current occupant of the WH. Governors, mayors, and business leaders having to step in and make the tough decisions. 7% unemployment (down from a high of 20%), thousands of businesses that will never open their doors again, millions laid off, Congress dicking around with relief packages (the deficit hawks return to the nest).

But sure, let's blame the media and open everything back up. It's a disaster right now. May as well make it a calamity.

not a crap shoot at all,, for 80% its just another flu and less than 5% it could be serious but not fatal,,,

the real devastation is coming from the lockdowns and restrictions that are destroying millions of lives as well as our constitution,,,

It's not like any other flu. In the 2018-19 flu season there were ~34,200 deaths in the U.S..

Estimated Influenza Illnesses, Medical visits, Hospitalizations & Deaths in the U.S.- 2018–19 Flu Season

On the other hand there have been 284,887 deaths from Covid and the "season" is lasting much longer.

Lockdowns and restrictions that wouldn't be necessary if people could just be bothered to do the right thing in the way of minimal precautions until there are enough people vaccinated. This ain't just another flu.

If you won't practice at least the minimum precautions recommended by...oh...everybody, then stay at home. Your right to individual liberty..ends at the tip of your nose. You don't have the right to infringe on other people's liberty. I've been out and about since the end of May.

That's what's called 'anecdotal evidence' and isn't worth 2 cents against the rigorous science done at Hopkins.

Now you've moved the goalposts and changed the argument to "I want to do whatever I want". IMO, that's a very immature attitude, considering how many people have died. Even if you don't believe the total, it's still a lot more than we see during a normal flu season. This is NOT the flu. Any molecular geneticist can tell you that.

This is a wimp virus with a 99.6 percent recovery rate. The only disaster is in the liberal media who are pushing their agenda. This is nothing compared to the spanish flu. Lol.

Mortality rate just dropped again for US, now 1.8%. Only 4% of the US infected.

I agree its a little more severe than the normal flu whatever that means,,,

Leftist depression and tears as vaccine arrives. "Vaccine is the last thing we need". Lol.

The safest thing to do right now is treat the Covid vaccine like it doesn't exist

Why it's for the best that you try to forget that a vaccine has been discovered at all.

Swing and a miss. Not what the article says. They're just pointing out that most people aren't getting the vaccine anytime soon and
precautions still need to be taken. Demand is going to outstrip supply for at least six months.

No, you're wrong. MSNBC doens't want this to end. They thrive on division, hate, racism, negativity, anti america, etc.
