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

That is the point made by Tom Jefferson and Carl Heneghen of Oxford University’s Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine, who did not mince their words when they wrote on the center’s website last Monday: ‘Lockdown is going to bankrupt all of us and our descendants and is unlikely at this point to slow or halt viral circulation as the genie is out of the bottle. What the current situation boils down to is this: is economic meltdown a price worth paying to halt or delay what is already amongst us?’

In reaction to the latest data from China, Jefferson goes even further. Noting that the data sample is very small, and thus there is room for some doubt, he tells the BMJ: ‘And even if they are 10 percent out, then this suggests the virus is everywhere. If — and I stress, if — the results are representative, then we have to ask, “What the hell are we locking down for?”’

At the minimum let those that recovered or tested positive for antibodies go back out right away. There's no use for those peole to quarantine at all. Then let the 60 and younger non high risk people out given they wear face masks whenever possible.

Not really, but where are you based? This was Orange County at the Westminster mall off the 405, 9AM-12PM in the parking lot every day now I think.


Ok.

Idiots really as they thought that President Trump caused the lack of tests.


I remember a couple of weeks ago when the Demmedia Shill Shits were complaining there weren't enough tests, that Trump turned on free tests (a program for turd world countries the US was not eligible for), and we were all going to die.

I believe the number is now 1.6M Americans get tested for Coronavirus.

A Reporter Asks Trump Why He Hasn’t Closed All Grocery Stores

As he sits in a room full of people.... Someone should ask if we can shut the press down until the end of April. Kidding. But by his logic asking that question, he shouldn't be there himself. Reporters doing reports in the streets, shouldn't be there.

Fact is I'd venture to guess 20-30% of people are not heeding any of the stay in place requests. People are still getting shot in Chicago. How the fuck should that be happening if you're supposed to stay home?

Personally I would break out the angle grinder if they did that to me.

Lol, that guy wasn't a reporter actually.

He's a paid propaganda agent. Not even a very smart one.

The W.H.O. really blew it. For some reason, funded largely by the United States, yet very China centric. We will be giving that a good look. Fortunately I rejected their advice on keeping our borders open to China early on. Why did they give us such a faulty recommendation?

USA tested almost 2.1MM people, more than any other nation. Even per 1MM capita they're in the still somewhere in the middle. So much for the "botched testing" narrative.

Lol, yes that is literally true right now.

Liberal media pundits want you to think referring to the coronavirus as the "Wuhan" or "Chinese" virus is racist.

Here's just a few of the times the liberal media did just that.

Not that it is or isn't, but really who gives a fuck ?

I think it's just stupid. It's been rejected mostly becasue it's stupid.
