    Just stopped by the safeway on 39th and powell on the way to work. Someone collapsed and said they think they have coronavirus. I know both I and @SlyPokerDog shop there.

    But... Hasn't Trump admitted it was real... You'd think that'd seal the deal for her...

    Trump asked if a vaccine could also " make you better", showing to no one's surprise he has no idea how vaccines work.

    A president doesn't have to be a PhD scientist but it is reasonable to expect a basic level of education.

    Honestly that's good. Previously Trump has supported anti-vaxxer views.

    This appears to be the Deep State solution to getting rid of the millions of vulnerable homeless people in Blue states, the Trump voters who tend to be older (wiser) and don't live in their mother's basement, Iran's entire government, and Italy (The Vatican's pedophilia publicity threatens to blow pizzagate wide open).

    Actually, a vaccine can "make you better" if you are already exposed.

    It works the same way whether you have already been exposed or not.

    It can also kill you, make you sick, disable you in a myriad of ways, or have no discernible effect whether you are exposed or not.

    And it's created by the same scientists who created the Coronavirus, so there's that.

    Coronavirus fatality rate is HIGHER than thought: Virus kills 3.4% of all patients, says World Health Organization, compared to 1% for ‘flu


    • WHO officials warned on Tuesday of shortages of protective equipment
    • Prices for masks have surged six-fold, respirators have tripled and gowns costs have doubled amid hoarding, shortages and price gouging
    • The WHO said protective equipment manufacturing needs to be ramped up by 40% worldwide to meet worldwide needs
    • About 3.4% of people who have been infected by coronavirus have died, making it well over three-times deadlier than flu

    This is going to turn out to be bunk. It may kill that percentage of people who seek treatment for the virus, but there’s a whole lot of herd out there that thinks they just had a cold and never is seen by a doctor. Also, there’s a big difference between the level of treatment available in third world countries and what’s available in the US.

    Isn't that the same with the flu? I don't recall going to the hospital when I've had the flu.

    The real problem with the flu is the possibility of it advancing to pneumonia.
