Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

[hog88]

There seems to be a disconnect somewhere with the predicted cases imo. I'm not arguing for or against here, but it seems odd when individual counties or states with significantly smaller populations are saying they expect to have or already have more infected than entire countries just doesn't match up. Like the state of Ohio claiming to already have 100,000 infected. Or the guy earlier saying his county was expecting between 15000-20000.

Election year.

Hospital here has screening stations set up, only one person allowed on campus with the patient, and no one can go back for pre-op, or post- op. I passed the screening, but they wanted to quarantine me anyway. Said they'd never seen anyone this awesome, and wanted to study me more.


Gotta laugh a little

What's going on? Why are you at hospital?

So calling out, do we have any phd virologist who specialize in epidemiology who are published and peer reviewed answering questions on this site?

Doubtful, but there are 10s of thousands of such people in the world and their thoughts on this pandemic are accessible to all.

There are plenty here who place their own opinion above the decades of training and study of those who have been sounding the alarms for months on Covid-19.

My small point was that I give a little more credence to biomedical scientists than amateur partisan political scientists when it comes to pandemics. Surely you agree with this point?

I initially saw it from a station reporters twitter and they listed Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins office as the source of that info.

An example of what I am talking about.....I look through several news articles a day trying to piece together what little bit of truth I can find from them..... one headline read,”Healthy 21 yr old youth soccer player dies from Coronavirus”...... I read the article and they failed to mention that the healthy 21 yr old was already dying of leukemia.

Saw in another thread that Joe’s wife is having surgery this morning.

Homeless or retire in 25 years? What's more important right now?

Apparently freaking the eff out and shutting down the economy was the most imprtant thing. Funny that you are suddenly worried about the economics.

This is why a bunch of us were against the quarantine and any types of shut downs.

They also provide smaller hash brown portions and increased the prices.

I think the closest I've come to spending money on the NBA was buying basketball cards in the 80's. Don't ask me why.

Two people in my office now have the Rona. Our CEO said they’re determining everyone these people might have been in contact with and will be reaching out.

I must've missed that. Prayers for everything to go perfectly. Inpatient or outpatient procedure?

Perfect timing, my Obama phone's battery won't hold a charge.
