More contagious only because you are not symptomatic for 10-14 days, less deadly.

The msm manufactured hysteria is all leading to the Democrats trying to make completely mail-in federal elections ... mandatory.

Perhaps not even that?

The CDC updated its guidance saying that you’re unlikely to catch it by touching a contaminate surface. And that the virus can’t survive long in an exposed environment.

This was all planned by the Dems to take down Trump because they cannot win in November.

A friend with Ochsner was actively encouraging everyone he knew to participate in this study. I don’t ever normally do such things, but I did with this and am glad I did.

frickers!

The decision to shutdown the global economy over this virus will rank among the Top 10 worst decisions of the last 1,000 years.

If so, Trump went along with it. They must have fooled him.

We've had 92,000 deaths from this so far. Isn't the average number of flu deaths every years like 60,000?

Depends on how you measure it. I'd rather have America suffer from a virus with a 50% death rate and an R value of .1 than a virus with a .5% death rate and an R value of 3.

Of course a radical right wing school like Stanford would find that.

Trump didn't "go along" with it. He had no choice. Look at the international agreements governing "Pandemics" that previous administrations idiotically signed.

We don’t count car wreck deaths as flu deaths.

I get those numbers are likely inflated, but if 30% aren't really related to Wu Flu, it is at least on par with the normal flu, right?

Is it appropriate to compare something that is likely a "maximum" event to an average?

How does this "maximum" compare to the most recent "maximum" flu season?
