Death by Corona numbers explode to 61

This will be a test. If this industry is not judiciously suppressed post-virus then we will know that humanity is fucked as an evolutionary experiment.

It really is that simple.

Flights are grounded – is this the moment we give up our addiction to flying?

I think I did answer it but if not here than on a similar thread. I worked in aviation safety for a few decades. It's impossible to know how many lives and planes were saved by the work of those like myself. All we could know is how many were lost.

That said, do you think Trump is a leaded in reducing the "death count" or do you think he's reluctant about the measures and pushing to relax them as soon as possible? If so, why do you think he wants to relax them ASAP?

Speaking of "death count":
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-52209954

The US recorded the most coronavirus deaths in a single day with more than 1,800 fatalities reported on Tuesday.

It brings the total number of deaths in the country to nearly 13,000, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.

The US has more than 402,000 confirmed cases, the highest number in the world. Global cases have exceeded 1.4 million.

However during a news conference President Donald Trump said the US might be getting to the top of the "curve".

How many lives would have been saved if Trump had recognized COVID-19 isn't just the "flu" back in January? Darth, do you, or have you ever, disagreed with Teflon Don's and/or Truth Detector's opinions on the matter?

The US is the largest country with the highest number of tests so the case numbers are a wash. Obviously, we’re going to have more cases than Italy or Spain. Since China can’t be trusted they get thrown out.

Fauci is Trump’s go-to guy and Fauci was down playing it in January. As were Democrats—it they were even thinking about anything besides impeachment in January. And do you really think the governors would have gone along with a lock down when the death count wasn’t even 61.

Would you have advocated for a lock down, on here, before the death count was 61, In January?

The difference between me and TD and some others is I’m skeptical but I’m more cautious and I don’t make predictions.

All the word salad and tap dancing in the world is not going to change this simple fact:

This thread was part of your concerted attempt to downplay and deny the risk posed by the COVID-19 Trump virus.

I am confident if you just admitted you downplayed the risk, this thread would cease being bumped

US is worlds 3rd population in total

the largest countries in the world in terms of population are China and India, with both countries now having populations of well over a billion. The United States comes in third with just under 325 million residents.

Go ahead, bump it even if the irony escapes you lol.

My number 61 is very likely going to be closer to the mark than the numbers projected by the ‘experts’ and their failing models. And I never once claimed we would top out at 61 deaths, btw.

Maybe I’ll be bumping it at some point.

^^^ More tap dancing.

I take it you intend to continue to deny that your intent with this thread was to downplay and deny the risk posed by COVID

The brilliant team of health professionals assembled by a President Trump with their mitigation policy is limiting projections of 2 million deaths down to thousands.

A Nobel prize for President Trump...Obama received one for doing..nothing.

Why do you persist in tap dancing around the failing models that you bought hook line and sinker lol?

Hello ThatOwlWoman,

Obviously I can't speak for any deities but that is my conception of a benevolent divine being as well.

It's amazing the # of ppl who claim to follow Christ, yet behave exactly like the Pharisees and others that He spoke against.

I don't think there is a God but I do believe what goes around comes around.

What I mean is, if you put out bad energy, then bad energy is coming back to you.

I don't think so. This is the kind of thing you never live down.

Darth is gonna wear this 'explode to 61' crown like a scarlet letter for all time going forward.

Definitely takes the lifetime award for "Most Regretable Thread Title."

LOL.....and rightfully so. The best thing he could do is to give a mea culpa and apologize for his own shortsightedness. Instead, he'll be like Trump and this will continue ad infinitum.

Some people would call that super natural force "God". Universal justice. Karma. Whatever.

Are you declaring this is over? What is the highest death count for COVID-19 you are projecting between now and 1JAN21?

BTW, those millions of deaths projected were if nothing was done. Trump reluctantly imposed some rules and still refuses to impose others. Time will tell how many Americans die from this plague.

[Doc Dutch]

Esp. if they get infected while packing those Easter Sunday churches -- definitely God's will. lol

LOL. Not God's will, but certainly man's free agency to make their own decisions without interference by God.
