LOL, me personally, I was going to call Pres Trump and tell him we desperately need an instant knee jerkie 380,000,000 tests done by TOMORROW, but we took the new fancy spaceship car to the dealer to get it undercoated/weather sealed, and ordered our steak dinners for pickup on the way home, and a neighbor wanted to borrow the big tractor rototiller, and we had to start a new jigsaw puzzle, and, with all the quarantine thing - Wife wanted to nascar around on her hotrod lawn mower, so I had to pick up all the fruit tree branches from trimming the trees so I helped the economy by hiring two little neighborhood kids who stopped by to help me....and I got pretty sore later on. I'm baking bread and taking it easy. I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldBrownsFan Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 1 hour ago, Gorka said: What has been odd about this is that I don't know anyone who has contracted the virus. No one in my relatively large family , no friends or acquaintances, neighbors or co-workers,...yet come flu season it seems someone I know got the flue bug. I don't minimize this virus. It put Britain's PM Boris Johnson in the ICU in critical condition . Canton Dawg got hit hard with it and is hospitalized. A friend of mine who is home now on oxygen also was hospitalized and was on a ventilator for 5 days. This is a very nasty Chinese virus. My argument Gorka is to take this virus seriously but not let the cure be worse than the disease. It seems like most people who get the virus will have no or mild symptoms but those who get hit hard with it really get hit hard. Those who are at risk such as the elderly and those with underlying health conditions should take extra precautions. We are between a rock and a hard place. In a perfect world we should take months of a lock down to starve the virus but in the real world if we did that we could end up with a financial collapse the likes we haven't seen since the Great Depression. Also this Chinese virus is more contagious than anything I can remember. We know the spread is going to happen again when we open things up but do we have any other choice? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it's getting near time to get back ...closer...to regular every day life. We can do that, while still being careful, not taking anything for granted or being careless. Some societal norms will go by the wayside - shaking hands/hugging etc...I think the use of public bathrooms might be "only in case of emergency" kind of thing - hand sanitizer everywhere. I do wonder how the camp out in Sept will go...if it does at all. We may not ever be the same again - but eventually, we will find a vaccine etc and get past it for the most part. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did say he was diabetic and asthmatic which would make him a prime candidate to get hit hard with the virus. My friend who was put on a ventilator for 5 days I thought didn't have any other health issues but I found out from his sister he did have diabetes and high blood pressure which put him at greater risk. There are other cases though of younger healthy people with no underlying medical issues getting hit hard with the virus. I wonder is there more than one strain of the virus with one strain being more deadly and another milder? Or is it a case where some get a real good dose of the virus all at once and their system gets overwhelmed quickly while others get less of a dose giving their bodies more time to fight it off?

OldBrownsFan Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 FAUCI SAYS REOPENING TOO QUICKLY WILL BACKFIRE OK and the good doctor is probably right about this although he was surely wrong when he repeatedly said the risk of the virus spreading in the United States was minimal. Now we need some economists being interviewed about just how long we can go with lockdowns before the economic costs are catastrophic. It is a balancing act. Fauci doesn't set a time period of when we should re-open. That would be good to know. He is setting himself for an easy "I told you so" when the virus inevitably starts to spread again after we re-open. Once we re-open every new case of Covid19 and every death will be laid on those of us who wanted to re-open the economy. You can count on it from the MSM but the other side of the story are the economic consequences of an extended lock down. https://www.5newsonline.com/amp/article/news/health/coronavirus/fauci-reopening-quickly-backfire/69-50763639-846c-45b2-a4f1-9e4228c26f81 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoorta Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 2 hours ago, Gorka said: Geezus, and I even put he definition of cavalier right in front of this half brain. Hoorta never said it was acceptable. You chose the word "acceptable" then took it out of context to imply that Hoorta has an arrogant disregard or a dismissive attitude toward death and suffering. Fuckin knuckle dragging monkey. 39000 die from auto accidents each year and 100's of thousands are injured or disabled. Is that acceptable or is it not? For you homework explain why or why not. You're allowed to pair up , so go ahead and partner up with DHead Years of having to get (or having the ER doc get) blood samples out of trauma patients so I could get their transfusions set up has left me very cold blooded realistic. Seeing what's left of people who wrecked their Harleys at 50+ mph, or gotten run over by a train will do that to you. Doesn't mean I'm unsympathetic to human suffering though. It's part of our human condition. My initial point with Tex was over 2 million people die of various causes in the United States every year. Whether you die from Corona, cancer, a heart attack, or car wreck- you're just as dead. Sort of disingenuous that I should somehow be more sympathetic to someone who died of covid than to the parents whose kid accidentally drowned in the backyard pool. That's not being cavalier, just realistic. Yes, there's been 42k (and counting) Corona deaths so far. There's going to be more regardless of what we do or don't do. If you want to bunker down like Ag, or instead flip the governors off and protest, it's your choice. I'm far from the only one out there of the opinion you can't minimize the loss of life at all costs- at any cost. So based on what we know, my POV is I like my Vegas survival odds. 20:1 even if I contract Corona it's not going to kill me, and even if I accept Ag's horror story of a million deaths, my odds are 330:1 I'm not going to be one of those landing in a cemetery. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My post of May 24, 2019 was on what may be the real reason why Mattis resigned or was fired: At least seven months before he resigned, Mattis had put together a plan to challenge Trump in the 2020 Republican primary elections.
