The question is stupid.
Garbage in, garbage out.
The question is stupid.
Why do men have nipples, when there's never any milk in our jugs? Are they nature's sympathy tits for women? And why do dogs like sitting on and peeing on cats? Why, why, why?
It also means we might be reacting to a disease in the wrong way.
I'll believe a curative vaccine when I see it and it has proven to be effective and not harmful. My fear is that a vaccine will be rushed into use without proving either.
Okay, this got weird.
Garbage in, garbage out.
You started it with your absurd comparisons.
Almost ten million people die from cancer every year. It is the cause of every sixth death. It is one of the largest health problems in the world. If we put the resources towards a cure for cancer that we have for covid, there might be no more cancer. Perspective.
I didn't know you were compromised in this manner. My bad.
I'm afraid, Benjamin Franklin's often overused quote may be meaningful in this case: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
I feel the country should've practiced "some" protective measures against spreading this disease, not this hodge-podge mess. But have we really purchased a significant amount of security to offset the misery and cost of the long term damage done by the shutdown, social distancing, and other measures?
"You know, putting a national lockdown, stay at home orders, is like house arrest. Other than slavery, which was a different kind of restraint, this is the greatest intrusion on civil liberties in American history," Bill Barr said.
Though this is uncomparable to slavery, in any fashion, it is becoming an incredible intrusion on our liberties. The big question is, was this disease deadly enough to warrant the reactions? Many think not and many do.
This is a nihilist line of thought; that if you can't cure / mitigate all other causes of death before COVID, then COVID isn't a serious concern.
If you're going to be this nonchalant about vast swaths of preventable deaths, please list your age, race/ethnicity profession and income so we can determine where you're coming from. It's easy to dismiss piles and piles of dead when you're relatively safe. I suspect that if COVID targeted all posters named 'grip', you'd be more invested in a solution.
He is the Attorney General. Shouldn’t he?Bill Barr commenting on civil liberties is freaking hilarious.
Nope. Just putting it into perspective. And I already had a case of covid.
Again, please list your information so we know your relative risk involving the virus.
Also, GIGO refers to you putting in garbage and getting garbage in return.
He is the Attorney General. Shouldn’t he?
Are those the same peaceful protesters that destroyed property, attacked police and looted businesses?You mean after he approved gassing peaceful protestors so anus tangerinus could pretend he's a christian? Yeah, it's flipping hilarious.

I have it on good authority (Auntie) that we can ignore opinion pieces.
The following opinion piece
It means that we might be overreacting to a disease that's not as serious as the media hype concludes. Besides, we're close to a curative vaccine which should end the spread.
America did far too little far too late and that's why it's suffering so much worse than every other developed country. Too many brain dead Trump cultists pushing conspiracy theories about masks being fake and the virus a democratic hoax. We did this to ourselves.
Experts fear suicide, deaths of despair will rise in wake of COVID-19: Mental health crisis | The Nation's HealthSo it is "overreacting" to save as many lives as possible? Why do we even have hospitals and doctors then? Not as serious? We have the most deaths in the world from the virus. Is that a record that we should be proud of? You are also wrong about the vaccine, it will take at least another year to reach any normalcy even with a best case vaccine.

You didn't invalidate anything I said. The US has done far worse than the EU in every metric. Europe has been fully back to work for MONTHS.
probably not. only a million people have died in a little over six months.
