Everything is a function of time. The whole point of all of this is to buy time to get in front of it.
You're deflecting, if left unchecked what do you think the true infection rate is?

It's hard to argue the point with him.
In around 6 months, the number of people infected with Coronavirus worldwide doesn't even touch the number of dead in 2009-2010 from the Swine Flu.
The media didn't fan the flames like this then, when there were over 61 million people worldwide infected and almost 560K dead. You know why? Their homie was Prez.
Trump is battling against the swamp, globalists, the media, deep state, etc.
I know people are dumb, but I've noticed A LOT more people have woken up in regard to the media's BS, and COVID-19 has provided the perfect example of why globalism is a terrible idea.

He's misspeaking. It is estimated that this particular strain could infect more than 50% within the next year without drastic measures.
There are obviously various strains of the flu

Dude, the number of people infected worldwide of coronavirus will likely surpass the total number dead from the 2009-2010 swine flew within a matter of days.
ETA - It's severely likely it already has, we just haven't confirmed it through testing.

In select areas perhaps. No way it will be happening in NYC, New Orleans or other problem areas.

You're missing my point. There is something like 21K dead from COVID-19 globally. The death toll from the Swine Flu was almost 560K globally. Also, I saw some data from Italy the other day that stated the overwhelming majority of people who are being categorized as a COVID-19 death do not have that as the cause of death on their death certificates. I'm not sure how true that is, but i do know that Italy did say that the vast majority of COVID-19 deaths had significant medical issues prior to becoming infected.
My point is that the government didn't shut anything down and the media wasn't fanning the flames of fear. POTUS makes a valid point...
Everyone is terrified and they don't even know why, except for the fact that they have been instructed to be scared. When dealing with this stuff, it's important to analyze the data.
Folks who use potential worst case scenario speculation are as bad as the media.

Agree. Just like all areas didn’t go into lock down at the same time they will come or in a staggered manner. The question will be how fast others come out. If most places aren’t headed back to normal by the end of April we will have allowed the best economy we have ever had be destroyed to make sure someone in their 80’s sees a few more sunrises.

Really? Fox News during the swine flu tried to shut down the global economy?
