Just for the record... China Virus

[RobDownSouth]

Yes, AJ, the yearly flu vaccine does not ALWAYS prevent the prevalent flu strain.
It's like hitting a moving target, if the flu virus morphs, the vaccine might be ineffective.

Your alternative, which appears to be "do nothing", is less than helpful though.

Remember last year when you redefined the concept of "rape"? How if a woman didn't fight to attack her rapist to the bitter end, it wasn't technically "rape"?

Why must a woman fight to defend herself from physical attack when you're counseling "do nothing" in the face of a viral attack?

Seems more than a bit of a double standard.

Oh, this is good. A massive off topic deflection to one of those "reimagined conversations" of yesterday that has absolutely NO RELATIONSHIP to the topic under discussion.

Why is that rubbery? Are you afraid no one is paying you any attention this morning?

There's a way to solve that, go test positive for CV. I guarantee you'll get lots of attention then. For at least 2 weeks, maybe more if you can fake it like you mean it.

He is so freaking inventive, from admitting that I am right to
advocating doing nothing and something about rape that
was probably someone else's thoughts.
He just loves to lie and since I
pointed out his covert racism
and over racialism this morning,
I have clearly lit a fire underneath him...

The flu shot is no panacea.

It is a best guess on which strain will prevail,
which has not always proven to be true.

:shrug:

Truth. But, they are getting better at guessing and even if they're wrong the shot
provides partial protection in that it ramped up your immune system.

I've never had one.

:shrug:

I get 1 every year. I have a shitty immune system and I can't miss deadlines. Being sick is no excuse, Justice is blind and uncaring.

 

[SpeareChucker]

I'm retired and a prepper.
I just don't go out as much.

He didn't just move the goal post on that one, He moved the whole damn football field!

It's funny.... In one thread you have people posting facts, helpful information, and some humor. Then there's this thread.

We were doing fine until you came along.

Why is that?

 

[SpeareChucker]

Is a Depression worth it?

"Just one competing projection, from the Hoover Institution, suggests “the total number of cases world-wide will peak out at well under 1 million, with the total number of deaths at under 50,000″ (emphasis added). This is near the annual death rate due to flu in the United States alone. We don’t know if that estimate is accurate either, but that’s the point."

Judging by how wildly dishonest Rob characterizes other peoples arguments/statements.....I'm betting you said something along the lines "can't rape the willing and enthusiastic" or "regret is not rape." because DUH.


And CommunistDownSouth was probably supporting regret rape, 20 years after being filmed begging for more dick her regret about that incident after finding its way onto the internet = rape. 90% chance of this insane position being supported by nothing more than "because Orange Man Bad!!"

It's rubberybelowthebelt and you're not thinking big enough. He moved the entire State of TEXAS on that one.

This is the Trump isn't the cause of the Coronavirus thread.
The thread you like devolved into mindless Trump bashing.
Which, is probably why you prefer it and probably should stay in it...

you know...

to "win" it.

Dr. Fauci facepalms after Trump calls the State Department the "Deep State Department."

No one said Trump caused the disease you histrionic freak, quit lying.

Fauci is a Progressive fraud...



There's a reason his appearances have become limited to CNN.

Here’s another hysteria skeptic with impeccable medical and statistical knowledge, John P.A. Ioannidis, a professor of medicine, epidemiology, and statistics at Stanford University and co-director of Stanford’s Meta-Research Innovation Center.

If we assume that case fatality rate among individuals infected by SARS-CoV-2 is 0.3% in the general population — a mid-range guess from my Diamond Princess analysis — and that 1% of the U.S. population gets infected (about 3.3 million people), this would translate to about 10,000 deaths. This sounds like a huge number, but it is buried within the noise of the estimate of deaths from ‘influenza-like illness.’ If we had not known about a new virus out there, and had not checked individuals with PCR tests, the number of total deaths due to ‘influenza-like illness’ would not seem unusual this year. At most, we might have casually noted that flu this season seems to be a bit worse than average. The media coverage would have been less than for an NBA game between the two most indifferent teams.​

Some worry that the 68 deaths from Covid-19 in the U.S. as of March 16 will increase exponentially to 680, 6,800, 68,000, 680,000 … along with similar catastrophic patterns around the globe. Is that a realistic scenario, or bad science fiction?
We’re acting as if coronavirus is for sure going to amount to the worst-case scenario without knowing that is true. If we all do shelter in place for the next year and a half while politicians pass the equivalent of the Obama-Bush stimulus that suffocated the economy 12 years ago, the “experts” will insist the nation’s long-term ability to provide for itself was required to save millions of lives. There will be no way to prove them wrong, even if they are.

It seems a fool’s errand to pre-emptively and indefinitely risk everyone’s livelihoods without hard information about what is happening and a risk assessment that includes the serious dangers of killing the U.S. economy, not what computers project will happen with lots of missing, unreliable, and rapidly changing information.

So Trump is stupid enough to have a "fraud" stand next to him at his podium?

Fraud? Why is he a fraud?

Is this the kind of "information" that you are still sharing in the other thread?

I think you have words of iron.
