Which is still pretty low

Considering they thought this was a world ender

okay @Dstar_Destroyer if I gave you a bowl of 100 M&M's and told you that 3 of them are poison would you take 1 of the M&M's if 3 of them will 100% kill you

not 1 single person that was sane said it was a world ender

they suggested that up to 10% of the world population COULD die, but that won't actually happen

Jokes on you, I dont like m&ms but i get your analogy

I see it as the virus won't be going away, it may be the next flu, just the ever present virus every year, I refuse to be scared of it every single day of my life

I cant live that way

the key thing of the deaths is that around 50% of all deaths had 3 of 4 pre-existing conditions: Heart Issues, Breathing issues (Asthma or Allergies), diabetes, or Cancer. While an addition 25% or so had 2/3 and 10% or so had 1/3. I think only 10% had 4/4 and 5% had zero pre-existing conditions

so if you are 80, and have no pre-existing conditions you are just as safe as someone who is 40 and zero pre existing conditions. The issue is most 80 year olds have at least 1 or all of the pre-existing conditions 🙂

That goes along with how poorly handled this pandemic has been handled, once that was known, they shouldve lifted all the lockdowns, if the majority of people would be fine, while the ones who are immunno compromised would be the ones highly reccomended to take care of themselves. Maybe its my selfish side but I dont want a minority of people deciding how I live my life

I will debate that the left is just spewing bad info, and the right is doing the same. I hate both parties, and when Trump said "we have a 99.8% survival rate" I was actually pissed off by that and called his ass out on it.

And I get that too

Its become political, which is the worst thing to have happened to it

Now I will say the left spews just as much bullshit as the right on both accounts. The left is making the USA's handling of it look piss poor, when we are on the very extreme end of how seriously we are handling it in the RED states with no protests. The right on the other hand wants all restrictions lifted, but I would say mask up if you need to and have everyone else that doesn't wish to just stay 10 feet away from those that have masks.

Hell in Montana here I have had Karens bitch for having to wear a mask on the mountain, and I have said "this is BS" but I never caused a scene.

In fine with the social distancing,thing even if that degrades social,interactions. The mask stuff however seems ineffective when worn by the general populace

Since you have to wash the mask every 2 hours and not touch it

Dstar you have to remember an individual CAN be intelligent, but a group of people are 100% always dumber than a dull rock.

Yes, a person, is smart, while people are dumb

no a person CAN be smart

not all persons are smart

trust me I deal with a lot of retards daily

I guess that's a better way to put it

As do I

Do you work at a retail store?

The masks are effective and ineffective. Depends on a lot of things 😂

hell I just got off the phone with some dipshit when I got home that wanted parts in 3 weeks for 1/2 of what I was going to charge because "china quoted me for this" I just laughed and told him "okay call me in 6 months when you get the parts and they fail"

I expect him to be calling in 6 months wanting the same parts for the same price I quoted him before and I will triple the price then for him being a dipshit

This whole pandemic has shown the stupidity of many

I hate when people use China as an excuse to lower prices -_-

This whole pandemic is going to expose the media right and left for being too politically involved. Hell I don't even watch Fox anymore because they are retarded.

> I hate when people use China as an excuse to lower prices -_-
@Osha19 LMAO it happens so much in the custom parts industry you would laugh every time someone tries to pull that shit on you.

I haven't been watching any of the Mainstream news and only watching independent people to still try to see whats happening

I wonder what would happen if half of fox and half of CNN teams joined together. would we get a centrist news network or a chaotic news network

I watch CNN and Fox for bigger stories, and then after I see both I will form an opinion after cutting out the political Bullshit from both.

Chaotic

lol

Sadly thats what you have to do

indeed

If the MODERATE half of both joined it would be good, but if you did the far fringes it would be a shit show
