Corona virus delivered to your door?

[JMayo]

This struggle to rid the world of death is fruitless.
The fear that ppl are living with is the saddest part.
My confusion with this fear of death started when I was taught that going to heaven was to be my goal.
If that's the goal then why be afraid instead of welcoming ?

You guys worry too much. That’s my assessment.

 

[Nick Caprinolo]

Well
At the moment Seattle had about 366 confirmed with 29 dead.
What’s the math on that?

This is inconsistent with national and world wide statistics. These figures show a 12.5% death rate while everywhere else the rate is .03%. I did some further checking and found that the latest numbers are much better. There are now 477 cases and 31 deaths, 27 from one nursing home. which accounts for the unusual high death rate. Death rate is now .064%. Subtracting the nursing home cases the death rate is still above the average, but not astronomical.

Those people are still just as Dead

Only real issue is overwhelming health care facilities, this greatly reduces the ability to treat accidental injuries, chronic health issues(heart attacks,kidney dialysis,cancer treatments, etc). Remember high temps in individuals and shortness of breath are the main symptoms. That's why over 75 are so vulnerable. Wash your hands,cover your cough. Protect your family.

That was probably shown in schools my generation and earlier I doubt anything even resembling that is taught in schools today

This may throw a monkey wrench into this tread, but my question is, why is everyone going into a panic of this virus, which has killed approx. 2000 people worldwide and the same panic has never took place with the common cold or flu, which they say kills on the average 26,000 to 30,000 people each year ?
And I also wonder what the politicians/governments are sneaking in and through on the people, by causing or diverting attention to the coronavirus ?

True, but everyday more people are killed in vehicle accidents and no panic or worldwide concern on that.

 

[hogpatrol]

In 2014, WHO declared ebola a worldwide health emergency and pandered the same insanity. Six years later, not one person in the U.S. has died from ebola. It's all anti-trump MSM fueled bovine fecal matter.

5,090 dead (so far)

It's only just getting started. Infections in many countries are growing more than 33% a day.

It's also sobering to realize that Italy, for example, has recorded 15,113 confirmed cases with 1,016 dead - 6.7%.

Man up, stop worrying.
It's just the latest dumocrap hoax, to try to destroy the best economy in history. What else can they run on, short of shooting up more schools again? View attachment 1164001I wouldn't mind catching it !

Corona-19 World Wide isn't even close to the 2018-19 U.S. flu season alone!
2018-2019 Flu Season
48.8 Million Infected
959,000 Hospitalized
79,400 Deaths
Do the math!

CDC: "Flu remains the most significant health threat" in the U.S.
Children don't die from Corona-19...most don't even get it.
19 of the dead in Seattle were from one nursing home!
CDC: 80% of all Corona-19 cases world wide exhibit "mild flu-like" symptoms.

As Dr. Drew commented on the "Corona hysteria" yesterday. "I'm getting pissed"...Amen!

0.000004% chance of getting infected in the USA currently.

 

[SGK]

Most likely you'll get it. Most likely you'll be fine. Many won't be. Currently it is early days in the US - a mere 1,663 recorded cases and only 40 dead. 2.4%. Now imagine if the same number of people who get the flu get Covid 19 which is not at all unlikely given its transmission and symptom pattern. Do the math.

Better to just get it over with. Like the measles and mumps in the old days. Once you know one person with it, gather everyone else around and place them all in the same room. A few weeks later you'd have some good statistical info.

Good story on the Spanish Flu and why a mass shutdown is the only way to go.

current % of pop infected bears no resemblance to "chance of getting infected". Fake news!

You do understand where and who the majority of those deaths occurred, correct? My wife is a a Nurse. Daily forms everyday before they clock in with who, what's, and where's. If any one answer is yes they do not get to work for a period of time.
