He keeps citing the infection rate, and will not discuss at all with me when I point out, yes, the graphs and stuff show this huge uptick, but only because we just started testing for this thing, so 3 months ago you have a timeline at 0, and every test that's given and positive is going to make those line graphs SHOOT up.


Over the course of the next couple of weeks you may need to put him on suicide watch. Testing is about to go into overdrive.

Up to 497, 21 deaths and still only 8 recovered just a couple of hours later.

They are expecting to have over a million tests sent out by the end of the week. This means we'll see even more confirmed cases coming out this week (I'm going to guess at least 1.5k-2k by Friday evening) and even more by the end of the following week.

This spike in confirmed cases is going to cause panic because the media is going to hype it, be prepared. Expect more stories about schools and universities temporarily closing, businesses temporarily laying people off and companies telling more of their employees to work from home.

It's going to get more panic-y before it gets better.




More test kits that go out the more recoveries you can expect. I find it hard to believe it’s still just 8.

But everything is skewed right now because of the lake of testing.

I don’t think it’s bullshite I think it’s skewed because there are likely far more cases than the 401 confirmed and much more recoveries that aren’t documented right now
basically everybody who has caught it but only got a little bit sick stayed home from work a couple of days and drove on aren't being counted

All of these retards citing mortality rates right now are basically idiots

There is no way of knowing how many people actually got it. When they say that 80% of people can pretty much need no medical assistance (non-elderly basically). Thats why I like the one I saw where they have it at .1 to 1%. This virus isnt super deadly to most people just a few it posses a real problem for them.

Running around talking about mortality rates of a disease where most people don't even go to the doctor is just stupid

Basically we have people running around talkin about the mortality rate not of those who catch the disease but of those who get sick enough to seek attention. Which is an entirely different statistic

Bigfoot may exist. That's the difference between speculation and observed data.

He’s not that dumb. He’s just got something invested in the discussion. Not sure what.

The fear over this virus is/will do more damage in the USA than the virus itself

I was volunteering for the Buchanan Brigade when many of you were still peeing your diapers.

Maybe I just like old people and I don't want them to die unnecessarily. Ever consider that?

Maybe you’re just one of those gullible old folks. I’ll accept that.
