So you're saying there are studies confirming this, link to 1 of them then... please? And btw, there is more than 1 strain of covid19

You mean the ones totally ignorant or nor caring about the social and economics c fallout?
We need input from many areas, not just medical.

The economy is fricked either way; potentially more so unless the virus is contained. Eventually you people will realize that.
P.S. - The President has economists advising him. Ones that are far smarter than the MAGA cult that post here.

Concentrate the majority in heavily democrat areas like NYC and N.O. and all I see is upside. It will ease the overcrowding in the camps during GEOTUS's second term.
IMO this kind of post crosses the line and is 1000% ban worthy. Step up admins.

That is actually very good news, the social distancing etc is working. Early estimates were 350k to 500 minimal

So quarantiners railed about how ignored his health advisors for weeks and weeks, but now the quarantiners trust he is listening to his economic advisors?

No it's not.
It's really fricked if the government orders businesses shut more than another week.
Listen Chief, generals know how to end wars quickly but aren't allowed to simply becase of the devastation it would cause.
Just because someone's a medical expert doesn't mean you should take every suggestion as the righ thing to do. The social aspect may have worse fallout than the medical.

3 months to get to 2000 deaths and you can’t see how we’ll have less than 100,000? Based on what? Feels?

We understand how hyperbole and hystrionics apply, also. We aren't coming close to 200K on this thing. It will take some fast and loose classifications to even get to 100K.
This overreaction would be comical if it wasn't so sad.

Why do you think Fauci would sensationalize this?
The guy came out, with next to no knowledge of this virus, a few weeks ago and and boldly stated that millions would die in the US alone. He’s already stepped that back.
The better question is why would you NOT believe that he would continue to sensationalize this.

I’ll pencil you in , but don’t put money on it, because you will almost surely lose
I agree with you on your explanation, but that’s why we get to 80,000.

In the end, these models are very poorly constructed. They could be right but they are 95% or more likely to be complete junk.
Just like the climate models which are always wrong within three years of starting, and always wrong by predicting too much global warming.

when the death toll predictions in the UK go from 500k to 20k people, will begin to doubt.
It didn’t. The 500,000 was based on no social distancing. The 20,000 is not even a prediction. He said it could be as much as 20,000 but probably far less. I expect 10,000 dead in the UK.

I love how the cultists here worship Trump as some sort of God genius, but simultaneously believe that everyone who serves at his pleasure, and frequently have been handpicked and appointed by him, are complete imbeciles hellbent on undermining Trump.

Honestly, it's amazing to me how many of the Corona sky screamers are also shoehorning Trump into every conversation possible.
Just a coincidence I guess.

COVID-19 is politically motivated. It was made up by the left to get Trump out of office and to pass universal health care
The fact that there are 14 downvotes to this shows we have 14 idiots on here. Of course this is all politically motivated. This flu was the left's last Hail Mary to try to derail the reelection.
I still haven't gotten an answer on here as to why this viral outbreak is magnitudes different than our previous 4 or 5 "pandemics". So why the over the top reaction to this one?
Posted on 3/29/20 at 8:26 pm to SoFla Tideroller
It spreads more quickly and kills more quickly. If Faucci is right at only 100,000, that's alot more than the flu kills in the US. I voted for Trump by the way.
