There's a vaccine for flu and it still kills tens of thousands of people annually.

Should we shut it down every flu season?


Not everyone gets the flu shot. Flu deaths are computer estimated and real pneumonia deaths added in as well. They finally finished up adjusting the number of deaths for 2017. I know many here keep touting FLU deaths but its all computer generated based on number of positive cases.

So everyone will be required to get the SARS 2.0 shot?

Not only does not everyone get it, it's varies in effectiveness every year.

Cool, man, I'm very much aware. Models after the fact are probably much better than the models being used for this panic.

Still...doesn't answer the question...are we going to shut it down for flu every year?

Livingston and Ouachita parishes being the “hotspots” for this is one of the least surprising things I’ve ever seen

Hep A is one of the foodborn illnesses as well. This all comes down to proper hygeine and proper cleanliness in the kitchen.

This is why I kind of laughed Covid off. With the amount of cleaning supplies being bought I figure most people have been sick from things that do much worse to a healthy person.

Reports of Hep-A outbreak is a conspiracy by LA State Government to turn Louisiana into a socialist republic. Putin and China is behind this whole thing.

If you see a Chinaman or Rusky, tell them to wash their hands after wiping their butt.
