Anyone wants to risk a bet on the eventual number of sick people? Dead people?

This is an important factor which is ignored by the press of course.

The majority of the Wuhan virus deaths are in people who did not have long to live anyway, and so an increase in virus deaths is causing a decrease in deaths from other causes.

Presumptively died from instead of died with Covid-19.

Notice how Spain's graph of excess deaths went below average for the time of the year:

Exactly. The virus has burned through all of those at death's door.

I saw my brother for the first time in 4 months. He was a delivery driver who delivers food all over NYC, North Jersey, Philly, and sometimes Maryland. Turns out, he got Corona in February. He lost his sense of taste and smell and occasionally had trouble breathing for 3 weeks. But since he couldn’t taste anything, he apparently just consumed habanero peppers left and right to open up his nasal passage and have the air come flying in. He said he could barely taste the spice. He said it was just annoying...nothing more. The vast majority of the population can function with this stupid virus.

Simple straightforward policy would be:

If you are overweight, diabetic, high blood pressure, etc.... shelter in place. We could even fund their unemployment.
Everyone else, get back to work.
Guard nursing homes with extra precautions.

Sounds similar to my experience 2 weeks before him. It's that loss of smell that has me convinced. I pick up everything multiple times a year and never ever experienced that. Some of the other symptoms were unusual as well. That's why I think I got it again 6 months later, I didn't lose my sense of smell the 2nd time. (Also learned how most people don't make antibodies for more that a month)

This. You're hired to run the CDC man!

Trump didn’t discover shit. Just mentioned what people were talking about. HQC was being talked about before Trump even mentioned it.

Thank you!

OK, that's an angle that can be used to overcome Democrat hate for Trump and save tens of thousands of lives.

We just have to point out that he was not the first one to mention HCQ.

Fauci should indeed go to jail for having killed so many people. Can Trump not fire him?

Wow - what a powerful graph.

He can and he will. Fauci is going to be Trump's Covid scapegoat, and for valid reasons. You can't fire the top person during a pandemic. Media would torch him and he knows it. The guy has made mistake after mistake and I have a hunch that Trump has dirt on him. He's going to wait until the timing is right and fire him showing links to big pharma and how he gave bad advice. Trump will literally be able to blame the entire Covid response on Fauci and it's going to look awful for Fauci. The guy is a deer in headlights every interview I see the last month or so.

On one issue alone Fauci has failed massively. If masks were effective, even homemade cloth ones, then he failed. He told us not to wear them. And if it was out of fear of masks running out for health professionals, then he lied. He's in a lose lose situation. He knew it was an airborne virus and we've studied masks of all types before this pandemic. It won't change my vote, but frankly I'm pissed he hasn't been fired yet, hence why I think it's a timing play by Trump.

You can see it in Fauci's eyes and his demeanor. He knows he's done.

To be fair, this was proven to be a hoax.

News guy saying US is 3% of world population but 25% of covid deaths. The blatant lies are so insanely made up its mind boggling. Mean while the majority of our covid deaths are people already on deaths door. I will agree if it was actually high it has to do with all of the sickly people we keep alive way longer than what nature intended, but 25% is BS.

Many countries don't track covid deaths and many only those from covid not with covid. At the end of the day life expectancy matters (ideally not while being a veggie) - who gives a shit what peole are dying off. And here, esp. since Covid mostly kills the oldest it's not even a blip. The leftoid mainstream media are traitors.

Yep.

And if they get what they want they won't like what they get.
1857   mell   2020 Aug 8, 10:11am  

Btw what happened to @Heraclitusstudent who started the initial thread. While millions dead was certainly too far fetched the extreme contagion prediction hit the mark and there should be some credit. Or did patnet lose another left leaning centrist

Mask Totem and Mythology imposed as superstition rather than fact or science, studies from 2016 before Covid:

Start at 40 minutes or so for more synoptic presentation.

If you look for these papers he cites on the internet, some of them have been censored and are not available because 'they don't comply with current theory' or some such information control moniker. Scary fucking censorship shit.

I like making fun of masks, but this may be the nastiest one I've seen. Damn near threw up in my mouth.

Cheaper than paying the hospitals $20K to $40K. If you are dead and you test positive, you get $2500 and get to vote Democrat for 15 years.
