Orange man Reality TV bad

No body knew what was this virus.. . What would u do keep it open let the bodies pile up in a hole . Or lock up and re group

Wasn't that hard to take that decision

*Person. Woman. Man. Camera. Tv.*

I still think the lock down was necessary..

That's not what I'm asking. I'm saying what's the excuse ***now***

For locking down

Now.. its hospital capacity.

Which hospitals have reached capacity and have they used any overflow. There's a national guard and a federal military.

If the hospital weren't at a high capacity but people were dying at a normal covid deaths rate. There will be no lockdown

people will die either as a socialeconomic consequence of trying to prevent covid or due to covid itself, depends which you think is the larger number. i suspect the former number is massively greater than the latter.

@Phil, you just advanced to level 18!

300,000 is nothing compared to the consequences for everyone for years to come

@SoonMrWick going back to work talk soon on break

Its also a very suspect number.

Or rather questioned.

even if it is 1m still < 0.3% of the population

excess deaths for the year are close to 400k

Excess deaths ***from***

all causes

Exactly

making the entire country 20% poorer due to lockdowns and lost businesses -> tens of millions will die

Correlation ≠ causation

at 300k of which are directly attributed to Covid ... question is about the rest, more than likely Covid is under-estimated

If you jumped off a bridge and tested positive of covid. You died of covid. *at least in Illinois*

i bet that includes people who die waiting for cancer treatment or cant get an operation on their heart because of covid priorities

Hope you don't feel like we're ganging up on you. You have a lot of replies but I appreciate your input

small percentage maybe ... lots of folks died in the early part of this pandemic probably of Covid but were not counted that way because there was no test ... also this virus kills in more ways than just pneumonia and breathing issues

no it's perfectly fine

if covid came from Spain, Spain would be outcast from the international community. because its china, where every business wants to get into that market, they dont do anything.

they have put the world into recession for 5 years

That's probably true.

and somehow trump gets the blame....

If its natural. China can't control it.

he should get the credit for lots of things like Operation Warp Speed

I still question it being natural

you had covid in USA since last November at least

the let it in the country for months without telling you, even corrupted the WHO not to say it had passed to humans

August of last year in China, October of last year in Italy ... but something happened to this virus in Dec in Wuhan, some mutation or something
