Do we remember when 60 million people and 13000 people died and we shut the country down. Am I having a senior moment. 70 percent of those infected were below 65 years old. Just wondering. The mshsaa guidelines basically make fb season very difficult to have. But, we should have the cfl to watch

How many people died? Was it 60 million AND 13000? So 60,013,000?
 
It is probably not a senior moment though it may be a moment induced by something else. You might want to edit for clarity.
 
60 million infected, per cdc. Vast majority below 65 yoa. I hope all fall sports can complete seasons, but fb will be difficult with the mshsaa guidelines. 1 player positive you forfeit at least 2 games. They could be from the opposing team. If u have a player who is tested do you have to quarantine the entire team until test is returned? Going to be a frustrating process.
 
When you try to score political points, you lose half of your audience before you start.

its a pandemic during an election year,if youre not ignorant and blind its easy to see the connection.

Trying to get people is wear a mask and protect fellow citizens has nothing to do with politics. The virus doesn’t care who you vote for.

Yeah, yeah.... The virus doesn't care who you vote for but it does care if you're protesting as opposed to if you're sitting at church. The virus takes heed if you're walking down the aisle at Walmart a certain direction and will avoid you. The virus doesn't like the smell of wood so you're fine if you go to Home Depot or Lowes, as long as you stand in line to get in.. I'm an insensitive A-hole if I don't wear a mask because "You should do it to protect others!" Well, if that is the case and masks protect, you wear the mask and you should be protected from my insensitivity. Oh, wait do they only work if both people wear them? Watch this BS continue to ratchet up in severity until the election and tell me it isn't politically motivated.
 
It's political cause the President is in charge of more than just making sure the stock market is high. Trump has shit the bed, Governments across the country at the state and local level have as well. Japan started to reopen concerts and indoor sporting events last week, and by the looks of it Europe will soon follow. In America we still can't agree on if this actually exists or not. Like many people I'm tired of talking about the virus on here but I'm an idiot so I can't help myself...
 
Is it political to say only a fool would attempt to compare these two things:

N1H1
13,000 deaths, 60,000,000 cases = 1 death per 4,600 people

COVID19
135,000 deaths, 3,500,00 cases = 1 death per 26 people

It took a year for the N1H1 cases to accumulate to 60 million.

Odds are it comes back all over the world in waves multiple times. No one knows who will be the worst off in 3 months.

The death rate keeps falling as more testing is done

As long as their is a financial incentive to label deaths as covid, there will be inflated figures. Only a fool would ignore that aspect of this situation.

If you want socialized medicine be prepared for rationing of care re Ezekiel Emanuel. There are no easy solutions. My original post was intended to point out that a virus that affected younger people more often did not lead to a stoppage of activities. Maybe I did not delineate that properly.

I lived through the Hong Kong flue back in the late 60's. Well over 100,000 deaths in the United States and they didn't shut anything down and the world didn't come to an end.

Scientists and Medical people have yet to explain how people are supposed to buy food and pay rent for months at a time when they are hiding in a closet and cant go to work.
 
one method would entail visiting the Cayman Islands to find all the money U.S. Billionaires are hiding there after paying zero taxes while you were paying your fair share. I think that would help us get by for a once in a lifetime pandemic.

Cayman Islands...

Saw Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos on television the other day, got to wondering how she landed her role. Wowed to find out her family is worth $5.4 billion, while they have a 163 foot yacht (one of 10) in the Caymans. Her salary of $199,700 is donated to charities. She has a BA in Business Economics.

Some would say a classic example of foolishness might be posting about fools while simultaneously showcasing an inability to master the proper usage of the word "there."
