The first cases were in a fricking nursing home. Of course that will have a high mortality rate

Love it. Everyone knows the media is fake news until the ladies at Bunko decide they better be more safe than sorry. I bet Costco is a sea of hot white asses in leggings right now.

Media hysterics
No, it's human nature.

Do you think people with cardiovascular disease are shitty people? Do you think people in their 50s aren’t just as much human?

Have you looked at the statistics for that demographic?

I bet you haven’t. And I bet there are a lot of people in your circle that fit that criteria, but you wouldn’t know because your head is in the sand busy flipping penny stocks. This isn’t just muh flu to them.


I’m one of those people you described here. Why am I calm and you’re panicking?

It’s pretty obvious with the extremely disproportionate impact on the elderly Covid was created by globalist overlords to eradicate old people since old people vote “wrong” and are the main driving force of nationalist movements sweeping the globe that gave us Brexit, Trump in the US, Bolsonaro in Brazil, and right wing leadership in Eastern Europe.

You’re trying to make me into something you want me to be. If I said anything that panicked anyone they were panicked already.

All I’ve ever done is look objectively at the numbers and I have a much more realistic appreciation for what our medical system is capable of.

What qualifies a post as panicking?

Because it seems like it’s just whoever you disagree with

Nobody cares when the drunk with the fatty liver takes a drink

Are those things have and will kill 10000000x more people in your life then this will, but you haven’t and don’t care

You're not 80 but you have the organs of someone who is. You better make like Travolta and inflate the Bubble.

From a different perspective maybe

I commend your calmness. Maybe that’s your way of coping.

The reality is downplaying the virus is just as dangerous if not more so than overhyping it. I’m sure I don’t have to explain why.

Anyone posting an opinion that half a million people in the USA will die, no matter who said it.

That is “panicking”.

21 people in the country will die from a cold this month. The virus is overhyped by the media.

That’s a great argument. We should stop researching a cure for cancer too, we could save a lot of money since people are going to die of other things anyway.

Man... this is bad. I am waiting for Sarah Mclaughlin to start singing while I read this silly strawman you presented.

It's like you're psychic because how would you know that I know old people? Wow...but yes and one of those just had a stroke at 84. He is in the hospital now and the prognosis isn't good. That's life, though. Old people die of all sorts of things.

I wouldn't even touch penny stocks with your money and I can make money off of puts too. Also, my business thrives in a down economy so it would be smart of me to cheer this on actually but I just don't see the mass devastation you all are pumping and cheering for. Sorry

I’m not even saying I believe that, but you are just slapping a label on that statement because you don’t agree with it.
