OT Coronavirus: America in chaos, News and Updates. One million Americans dead and counting

I gotcha. and my point is a month is alot longer now than it was back then because of people being more independent. More people grew their own food then and new how to work on their own house then. People were still able to be active and get their necessities handled on their own rather than relying on the economy or the government. So there for they were able to endure much longer.

 

I would disagree but then I remember that 6 hours with the in-laws on Thanksgiving day has seemed like 8.7 months

 

Maybe you can create an election thread then?

 

Just side step authority and take control.

 

This is getting ridiculous. We can't stay locked down for a year or 18 months.

People are everywhere here. I'm working.

@Orion Bailey is right. There isn't any way for 330 million people in this country to survive without our economy. Very few of us can grow our own food even if we knew how.

There will be riots and it will not be pretty.

Let's have a nationwide vote and see what the people think.

 

More political games being played by congress DEMS & REPUB's in passing additional assistance.

Is WWE Hall-of-Famer Donald Trump why pro wrestling is an ‘essential business’ in Florida?

Did the novel coronavirus originate in a donkey or an elephant?

 

* so far, worldwide, the mortality rate of Covid-19 is 6.6% (5% in USA)

* the mortality rate of the flu is 0.1%

* the mortality rate of Malaria is 0.18%

 

600 thousand die of heart disease every year. The hospitals are losing money as we speak.

People die every day.

I don't believe those numbers for a second. When do you plan on testing the globe to find out the real number? 6 months? 12?

 

That’s irrelevant because our economy, our world, has that number baked into it already. We know people die and we plan for it. We do not plan for a surprised death toll in the hundreds of thousands if we open up too soon. If thousands and thousands of people die, they aren’t going to work. This hurts businesses. Or we keep people home longer, adapt as best we can, keep as many people alive as we can, have the government provide money in a smart way to businesses so they can keep paying people and come back when the time is right. If we have another stimulus bill that must be provided maybe next time Harvard, Yale and the like don’t get $14M when they have an endowment in the tens of Billions? Money should not be the issue. Doing stupid shit with it is the issue.

oh and also people who go protest and block traffic in front of hospitals should be run over.
