    OMG! You were serious? Get a fucking grip, fella. Yes, this is a watershed moment in history like Watergate or the Clinton impeachment, even 9/11, but it's not the Apocalypse or the end of the United States of America.

    Really? How many do you have? I have about two dozen although, but to be honest, I haven't counted them all. Over 5000 rounds of ammo. That doesn't include a bow and two crossbows.

    I am inclined to believe you but am not quite so pessimistic. I just despair at how easily we've allowed our freedoms to be taken away.

    Gone forever. Hope your kids know how to sew burlap bags, because they aren't going to have economic opportunity either. My guess is we'll be reset about 100 years.

    Next week will most probably be a horrendous week for many. Wont have all that much to do with Corona though. Lots of things at play here that most have no idea even exist. The good news? This too will pass. When it does we will get on with the work of rebuilding and putting this behind us. The big question is........ will you be a builder? Or a destroyer?

    Earl, you need to use the most recent polls.

    Surgeon general: 'This is going to be the hardest and the saddest week of most Americans' lives'

    BY ZACK BUDRYK - 04/05/20 09:31 AM EDT 193

    U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams warned Sunday amid the coronavirus pandemic that the week ahead
    would be the “hardest and the saddest” of “most Americans’ lives.”

    “This is going to be the hardest and the saddest week of most Americans’ lives,” Adams said on “Fox News Sunday."


    “This is going to be our Pearl Harbor moment and our 9/11 moment only it’s not going to be localized, it’s going to be happening all over the country,” Adams said.
    He added, however, that there "is a light at the end of the tunnel if everyone does their part for the next 30 days.”

    “There is hope but we’ve also got to all do our part.”

    Host Chris Wallace also pressed Adams on President Trump’s repeated promotion of the antimalarial drug hydrochloroquine as a coronavirus treatment. The drug has not been approved for that use and experts have warned a run on supplies could lead to a shortage for those who need it for its FDA-approved uses.

    “Here’s what we’ve advised the president: When people are in a tragic situation, we want them to be able to have a conversation with their healthcare provider about everything they can do to save their lives,” Adams responded. “We feel a little bit better regarding its safety than we do about a completely novel drug.”...

    The peak in the death rate will be that last peak to occur.

    First we need to see the peak in the number of active cases.

    Then comes the peak in hospitalizations.

    And finally the peak in the death rate.

    I think what they are talking about is flattening the curve, meaning we'll hit the peak death rate in the next two weeks, but not the final death tally for COVID-19.

    Dr. Fauci did say that the disease can be transmitted by simply talking to another person.

    https://www.kwxx.com/2020/04/04/dr-f...read-covid-19/
    Fauci said an accumulation of data now shows that people with no symptoms at all can transmit the virus, and can do so merely by speaking. Fauci said evidence now shows that just speaking can send out small particles of the virus—not very far, just a few feet—but nevertheless, a mask can help prevent people who have no idea they have COVID-19 from spreading the disease.

    Democratic presidential contender Joe Biden led the way, quickly attacking what he called Trump's "record of hysteria, xenophobia and fear-mongering" after the travel restrictions were announced, and arguing that Trump "is the worst possible person to lead our country through a global health emergency." Biden, on Wednesday, didn't criticize the travel ban in any way, and instead accused Trump of "downplaying" the virus early on in remarks to Fox News.

    "I had Biden calling me xenophobic," Trump told Fox News' "Hannity" on March 26. "He called me a racist, because of the fact that he felt it was a racist thing to stop people from China coming in."

    In March, another Democratic presidential candidate, Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., conspicuously insisted at a Fox News town hall that he wouldn't consider closing the U.S. border to prevent the spread of coronavirus, before condemning what he called the president's xenophobia. The Vermont senator has since taken to promoting "Medicare-for-All" and workers' rights amid the outbreak, while deferring to health experts on border closings.”
