It does ruin the forum for those trying to have an adult conversations.

billsfan1959 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 11 hours ago, transplantbillsfan said: I may have misinterpreted the multiple reports I read. If the Nursing home deaths are counted in the total but not tracked individually, that makes a little more sense. Except that last I checked--again maybe this changed in the last couple days, so correct me if I'm wrong--only somewhere around half the states in the country are even providing data regarding Covid-19 related deaths in nursing homes. That combined with our minuscule testing numbers PER CAPITA in relation to other countries and it'd be wishful thinking to not believe the total Covid-19 related deaths in our country are significantly higher than the already frightening 39,000+ number it stands at today, less than 3 months since the first confirmed US case. I'm sure there are millions of bodies out there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just pointing out he was wrong to be “hysterical” about it. He was so wrong in fact NY is now giving away their surplus. I sure hope this doesn’t spike again and NY needs them. ...have to respectfully disagree 'Chef........based on the population density of NYC and the ongoing influx of worldwide travelers, irrespective of Covid-19 for starters, NYS was woefully underprepared for such a calamity......if, IF the report is true about auctioning off ventilators, that IMO speaks volumes about pro-active preparedness, seemingly ignoring any "what if" synopsis, again based on population density.......now looking at Covid-19 cases and deaths, is this a valid observation or am I way off base?....should us in WNY be included in his "grand plan" ?......should there be or should there NOT be regional variations, but NOT sacrificing due diligence?...... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 15 hours ago, BillStime said: Why Democrats hate Republicans . . . Of the $170B giveaway to real estate developers in the coronavirus stimulus package (which is larger than the $100B earmarked for hospitals or the $150B set aside for states fighting coronavirus): a) "...the Joint Committee on Taxation found that 82 percent of the benefit of this and another tax giveaway in the coronavirus relief bill will go to the 43,000 taxpayers who earn more than $1 million — and just 3 percent to those who earn less than $100,000", and b) "...Worse, the bonanza for these millionaires and billionaires has little to do with the coronavirus: It lets them offset losses not just from 2020 but from 2018 and 2019, before the pandemic."

3rdnlng Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 DeBlasio is now claiming that the massive infections and deaths in NYC due to the virus was because the federal government was not in a position to do mass testing. While testing is important I think the spreading of the virus could have been drastically reduced by NOT TELLING PEOPLE TO GO OUT TO EAT AND/OR PARTY WHEN THE CITY WAS ALREADY INFECTED. 7 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COVID-19, the disease that has caused the coronavirus pandemic, is a respiratory illness that has symptoms that can include fatigue, a persistent cough and fevers. However, researchers in Spain believe they have discovered another symptom —lesions on feet. According to a statement from the Spanish General Council of Official Podiatrist Colleges, the lesions are described as similar to those seen with chickenpox and can largely be seen on the feet of children and adolescents. They have also been spotted on some adults. "It is a curious finding that began yesterday to spread in the healthcare field, among dermatologists and podiatrists, fundamentally: the same symptoms are increasingly being detected in patients with COVID -19, especially children and adolescents, although some cases have also been detected in adults," the statement reads. "These are purple-colored lesions (very similar to those of chickenpox, measles or chilblains) that usually appear around the toes and that usually heal without leaving marks on the skin." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Tim Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 6 hours ago, shoshin said: First there’s no evidence the photo is from April 6...the story from April 6 says people were “recently seen,” and I’m not sure People is the best source for exacting language. It’s just at least that old. And masks were barely on people’s minds two weeks ago. Hard to keep in mind how fast the changes have happened. heck there is some guy here who is adamant he will not wear masks and another who says they are useless. And there are other photos in that article of people with masks. I wonder why when he chose a two week old photo to misrepresent things, he didn’t pick those. But if you want to defend a guy who represented that a photo from —-People—- from two weeks ago was taken yesterday to foment the “outrage” machine, have at it. I just wanted to point out it was crap. The other thing with the picture is angle can change what you see, especially if it is intentionally blurry. If the pic was taken 20 feet in air those people might be much further apart then they look in picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
