One person close to me passed just recently
Most were fine but a couple got hit really hard. It’s real.
I had it. Moderate flu. Wife and kids had it fairly easy. I know several coworkers who had it. Most were fine but a couple got hit really hard. It’s real.
.porkchopexpress saysI guess it depends. If hospitals are slammed then I think we have to lock down. Otherwise, I don’t think lockdown makes sense...it’s then a matter of what risks people want to take for their own personal health.Most were fine but a couple got hit really hard. It’s real.
Is it worth shutting down the world for the great reset real?
I got the flu a couple years ago and could barely drag myself to "mandatory" training

What state has the most old people? Is it Florida? How come Florida is open and no one's crying and dying like it's a pandemic?
If there are multiple strains, mabey its different here in the Northeast compared to what you have out in Cali. Or wherever you're from.

Maybe. But is that reason to shut down the world?
They should have let it rage, run through everyone, kill of the already nearly dead, and have been done with itLike it did in 1918, which shortened World War I from which it originated no doubt.

I've belived since spring that there are two strains of this thing. One mild, the other aggressive.
As for comobidities, yeah they were involved in the person that passed, but the covid put them "over the top" so to speak. No doubt about it.
Let's face it most of techincally have at least one comorbidity be it age, asthma, high blood pressure, weight, diabetes, whatever. Stuff that under normal conditions can be managed. Were not exactly a flock of 20 somethings....
My family has practiced preventive health for 10 years.
We're just providing evidence that classifying this as a pandemic seems overblown, if not outright fraud. It's the approach that's the issue, not the disease.
I also drives me nuts that people continuously conflate CASE fatality rate with INFECTION fatality rate.
The CASE fatality rate is the rate of death among people who present themselves for treatment, about 1.4%. They are usually seriously ill.
The INFECTION fatality rate is only 0.3% because the majority of infected people never get sick enough to see a doctor, or even to know that they were sick at all.
It's important that people know that even if everyone in the US were infected, nowhere near 4.3 million would die!
It would be more like 330,000,000 x 0.003 = 990,000
This is a 4.6x difference.
Two people (40's) I know indirectly died but they were obese.

Lots of people think they must have had it, but not even any of them were seriously ill, much less in the hospital.
