Here we go again. What about all the long term effects, heart problems, brain damage, organ problems. You do know Covid affects the whole body and not just the lungs, right?

 

Their is a reason you posted this here b/c you know it's a stupid thing to post and this is the only  sub-forum where people can post stupid topics, fact.


can you show any statistics or data that quantifies the longer term impact of having Covid?  Or are you just parroting taking points from the panic porn Dems and media, as usual?

 

thanks for playing, bozo. 

It would also be interesting to examine covid cases and deaths based on states with red v blue governors.

Nice write-up.  We need to look at the stats, not make emotional decisions.  Many people are not used to fact based decision making and this makes the real problem worse.  One problem with the stats is poor reporting.  Most likely your stats are worse case as many reports show covid being reported if not the driver in the death but was present.

 

I have not seen a write-up and have no idea what the results would be of a study.  People who at at risk for covid (>65) are also at risk for the flu and pneumonia.   I suspect those deaths are down with covid.  What are the totals of a normal year of flu/pneumonia vs flu/pneumonia/covid.

 

Again, thanks for a write-up that was not political but there are those who make it so.  Use science except when science does not support their position.

...sure we need to be concerned and take necessary measures ( I do at age 67), but I have a guy in our office who is WAY over the top.....shame that he lives his life in such paranoia at age 35...says "people my age have strokes because of Covid-19".......drives to work daily as sole vehicle occupant wearing mask.....with 30 folks in our 12,000 sq ft office, it is 400 sq ft per person, well within social distancing guidelines and at least 6 sanitizing stations set up...office cubicles are 120 sq ft.....yet he sits at his desk 8 hours a day wearing a mask.....goes outside on breaks for a smoke and distances himself from colleagues by 12' OUTSIDE.....opens all doors with his knee or elbow.....girlfriend's job allows working remotely...she has not been outside their apartment since MARCH.....cannot imagine living under such paranoia, but "to each his own" I guess.....

 

"Goes outside on breaks for a smoke"

I’m assuming the Left wanted him to lockdown America during Adam Schxt’s impeachment circus so they could claim he was messing with ‘democracy’. 


Whatever he would have done they would have howled.  If he had done then exactly what they are asking of him now they would have screamed “dictator!!”  “fascist!!” or something else.  It’s amusing.

Imagine if the SOB took this virus seriously  and did something in November 2019?
 

 

 

...correct....Pelosi was advertising "come to Chinatown"  in FEBRUARY....DiBalsio said, "nothing to worry about"....Trump banned China travel and Big Fredo let 8,000 Chinese nationals pass through NYC unchecked......you're petulant little fraud which you already know......

You can't prove it...............period !

 

You are basing it on a disproved story.

Thank god for China being so responsive! Great leader. 
We would have been ***** if it didn’t go down to zero cases so quickly and was really no big deal. 
America is in good shape!

So we should shut down the country, and not leave the house till the virus disappears? That's what Biden wants to do. Feel free to do so, but some of us want to just live our lives as normal as possible.


So it’s not about your neighbors or fellow citizens. To hell with what happens to them. The individual and their individual choices are the most important thing in this society. If bilzfancy wants to live his life normally during a pandemic at the risk of harming others by not taking precautions that stop the spread of the virus, well THAT is what REALLY matters, right?

 

#######s. #######s everywhere.

See now you make up lies and attack people for no reason other than you were shown to be stupid with what you said. 

 

It's sad you would do things like that but that is the world we live in now. When you don't like someone making you look bad just lie and try to slander them.

 

You are disgusting at a human being to even say something like that.

Ok go ahead and show me the literature and lets do this. Show me the literature that shows no long term effects of the virus. 

 

I will go ahead and link you to an actually fact and information thread on this virus for anything you might have problems with so you can see actual people who specialize in virus and disease. See how that thread doesn't have to hide in PPP b/c it isn't crazy or misinformation. 

 

 

 

When you act like an idiot, don't be surprised to be called one.

 

The data is clear.  With more information known about the disease, the mortality rate is about 2x-4x that of the flu, and not 50x which was the case in March.  It is highly concentrated among a very vulnerable population, which can and should be protected. 

 

Meanwhile, the lockdowns have now accounted for an additional 50K of excess deaths and those are climbing faster than Wuhan deaths. 

 

So tell me the logic of continuing the strict lockdowns which certainly affect a different segment of the population and are much more widespread and severe.   

 

And speaking of personal choice, please enlighten me of children who choose to be abused by bad parents or spouses who are stuck in an abusive situation?

 

Keep pretending that you're on the moral high ground because you "care" about Covid.

So to you it’s either shut down the economy or we say ***** it and not protect ourselves and others?  There is a very happy medium.

Where did I post I didn't take precautions?? Christ, you people read what you want to read, see what you want to see, and then twist everything to fit your agenda. If you want to stay on " house arrest" until this virus disappears, go for it, but don't tell the rest of us how to live.
