Popular Post yzerman19 Posted May 21, 2020 Popular Post Posted May 21, 2020 We know so much more about this than we did 2 months ago. it is very contagious person to person, but not really from contaminated surfaces. it is highly lethal if you are older than 70. it is lethal if you are north of 50 with health conditions. Lethality is close to zero for kids (much better than flu) lethality looks like normal flu between 25-50, underlying conditions increase severity. traditional immune systems builders tend to help as per any ailment: take your daily multi-vitamin, eat healthy foods, get outside and exercise. hospital treatments not a panacea- no silver bullet, but people are getting lucky. HCQ now the most debated 20 cent generic on the planet. anti-virals and IVIG therapies all being tested and administered with random efficacy. Ace2 meds Still being investigated. 99.97% of people in US neither dead nor critical. jeffrey Epstein didn’t kill himself 6

Nothing to see here. Just stop, please for everyone's sake, especially your own. 3

What we are doing now needs to stop soon. The way everyone is bitching it apparently isn't working anyway. 1

The way these payments/checks have been distributed hasn't been without issues (ask MM) but you really need to play a different card once in awhile. Do you ever look in the mirror and say "wow I am really an a****le"? Or does your wife just tell you that daily??? I think it's important that we call out who's responsible for this mess and not just complain about it. Trump and his movement's legacy (whether he wins or loses in November) will be a few hundred thousand dead Americans and a destroyed economy because he couldn't be bothered to do his job. He and his supporters have weakened this country immeasurably and I'm not sorry that pointing it out hurts your feelings. 2

Popular Post yzerman19 Posted May 21, 2020 Popular Post Posted May 21, 2020 I’ve been happy and successful under W, Barry, and Orangeman. I really don’t care about who is in the whitehouse other than matters of international affairs. To me, domestic policy is local and individual. the removal of the SALT deduction cost me about $25k in CA. I favor repatriation of manufacturing and production, strong trade policy, and a top notch military (but not American Adventure wars). government stay out of my way, let me live, raise my family how I see fit. I’ll pay my taxes to keep the lights on and the powder dry and to have infrastructure. I would like to see us hammer the rest of the world on their polluting. id like to invest in all sorts of things as a country, trouble is we’re broke...not because we don’t make a ton of cash, but because DC spends like a drunken sailor on shore leave...and that’s on Congress...of both parties. 8

I guess I just took the news of seven really old, vulnerable people not even getting sick from it, along with 13 others also not showing any symptoms, was a good thing. My bad. maybe it’s because there’s no Spaniards in Mayville?

Hasn't even come close. Trump must be doing something right. And ALL the blame lies solely with China. 1

Until we get a rapid result test that's both accurate and widely available, there's probably not much more that can be done. Has anybody read anything about the timeline for that being available?

This virus came to us from China, they hid information about the virus. But, in your world, you hatred for President Trump had made you very petty. 4

Trump Derangement Syndrome is a real thing. Blaming all the problems of the country on him and taking zero responsibility for your own actions is an irresponsible and dangerous way to live you life. 3

No $hit it’s not working, so what do you suggest is done about it? There is no great answer to this question, and certainly not an answer which will appease folks with your mindset. The human condition always wins. Some of us are vulnerable, some are not. Killing countless others as a byproduct of this mess. and killing the economy in a feeble attempt to save some folks that unfortunately can't be saved makes zero sense. We are taking all reasonable steps to protect the vulnerable. We were dealt a bad hand, we still need to play it. Tack on another covid death. An acquaintance took his own life last week as an absolutely result of this mess. Small business owner who employed several family members. All went to crap, but nobody cares about that...

Given that comment, what do you think the motivation for someone like Walz to make the decisions he is, knowing that it will continue to hurt the economy of his state? It obviously isn't to push his poll numbers up. Clearly there is something driving these decisions as a politician's job rely on their consitutents approving of their job.

I wasn't the one that was insinuating that people that wanted the economy open didn't care about the vulnerable. Now you are telling me there is no way to protect them. Ironic.
