    To put it in perspective: anyone who gets Ebola should probably get their life in order.

    COVID-19, not so much. It’s exceedingly likely you’ll be fine.

    So it is a race of equals in your mind?

    Does that feel like an emergency, ... Bidenbot?

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Frankly, I don't even agree with your supposition that the perception of low risk of mortality from Covid 19 is good for Trump.
    Trump will be judged by what he did and didn't do, and what he does or doesn't do going forward.

    Your jibber jabber that Covid 19 is yummy like orange sherbert is irrelevant.

    Agreed with the caveate that a person isn't elderly or whose health is compromised. What you and I are talking about is the difference between preventing needless deaths or just practice viral eugenics; letting nature run it's course. There are valid arguments for both positions even though it may involve up to 3M American deaths.

    This plays out repeatedly. They get it from Fox. It's a tried and true disinformation technique which boiled down is just a straw man.

    Fox news takes an ear of corn, paints an ugly face on it, stuffs some straw for arms, lights it on fire and shove it in the evil DEMS mouthson TV.
    Then their moron viewers talk about it over and over in their echo chamber to the point they assume we know WTF they are talking about. That's why we talk
    past each other. They live in a fake reality. Not watching fox, you've never heard of Legion's chew toy. Whereas he thinks you are holed up in group
    therapy with COVIDAct whatever support group.... meanwhile you are just going about your business, living a normal life, and he is pulling his hair out
    imagining about it.

    Worse than FOX. I see regular references to Redstate, Infowars, etc. Propaganda sites for the truly brain dead.

    Are you justifying doubling that number? The LWers scream about "30,000 gun deaths" and fail to mention 2/3s are suicides but they don't say a word about 30,000 auto fatalities. Still, that doesn't justify ignoring a disease that would double both numbers.

    Hello Darth,

    Quote Originally Posted by Darth Omar View Post

    It’s a solid clue the victim had at least one comorbid condition which actually doesn’t tell us anything we don’t already know. Coronavirus is a kind of flu that [yes, it is. Don’t let the News Fakers tell you it’s not. The term ‘flu’ applies to a set of *viral* respiratory/upper respiratory symptoms, fever, malaise etc] causes 10,000’s of thousands of deaths every year—very nearly exclusively, in susceptible populations.

    Why do they report the seasonal death tally as a range? Because the number depends on how deaths are recorded. For ex: Elderly patient A who is on the verge of renal failure gets the flu and dies. How is the death recorded?

    I’ll give you a hint: it won’t be recorded as death by flu. The point is it would be very easy to inflate the seasonal flu numbers to their very highest end simply by categorizing any person who dies with it as a seasonal flu statistic. 50,000 or higher is probably not out of reach.

    I’d wager COVID deaths are being over reported with respect to seasonal flu deaths.
    denial, anger, depression, bargaining, and acceptance.

    Sounds like the bargaining stage...

    Oh, you might want to edit the OP while you still can.

    This makes no sense:
