You are from Las Vegas. You should know better. Your city depends on international travel to stay afloat. The rest of the world is shut down. Open up Vegas and see how that works.

LOL. The Michigan governor is handing the state to Trump on a silver platter.

Is that why the majority of the people in that state support the governor

You just surrendered all your liberty and freedom just like that .

I did say the virus was dangerous to certain subsets
You are more likely to die in a car crash

I am cutting and pasting a post I made on another thread to illustrate just how much worse this is than the flu of 2018

As you know, I said in numerous posts thereafter the correct formula to use.

Total deaths from all causes for THIS year
Minus total deaths for the flu season of 2018
Balance = probable deaths from the COVID-19

This is because there is rampant cheating and fakery going on with the numbers as the idiots in government bailed out the states with high uninsured by including ALL uninsured on Medicare as long as there was some hint of COVD-19, resulting in situations where everyone who died WITH the corona virus must have died FROM the corona virus. That along with no requirement for the doctors to send along test results and being on the honor system made a system begging for fraud.

So, for the board, per the CDC, the excess deaths from COVID 19 through the week of April 18 is 54,080. For some odd reason, they don't include NYC deaths and don't say why.

When you look at the chart of the flu season in 2018 (started in December of 2017) they had excess deaths over and above normal of 16,557 just from the seek of December 23 to the week of January 27.

Therefore, to the week of April 18, 2020, comparing this COVID-19 to the flu season of 2018, we have excess deaths of 37,523. (54,080 minus 16,557)

This is the only way one can compare this virus with a bad flu season. For THIS, we destroyed the nations economy!!!

Your OP is right on target. The world is freaked out over a VIRUS. They shutter everybody and just yesterday, Cuomo reported that 2/3rds of those who are hospitalized for COVID-19 stayed AT HOME UNDER LOCKDOWN!!!

There is a story just TODAY that vitamin D is extremely important in combating this virus. Where do you get it!??? From the sun! People are staying in their houses.

The world has gone stark raving mad. The sheep keep listening to the socalled "experts" who are the sheep herders bringing them to slaughter.

It shows how easily the herd can be stampeded. Fauci stampeded the entire country, including me.

True. It's understandable, though. Highly contagious and death used in conjunction will elicit that stampede. Throw in conflicting guidance from experts, and you have a perfect storm of sorts....Wear facemasks. They don't do squat, but wear 'em anyway. Hydroxychloroquine may work. Hydroxychloroquine could be deadly. A vaccine is years away. We'll have one by Fall.

It's like a Larry King infomercial...."Peptobismol!"
 
We demonsrated that we can come up with thousands of beds that can be deployed to hot spot. Keep the stay at home order within a 50 mile radius of NY city and make America free again.

You're right, the rich are getting richer. Look at Wall Street and investors lining their pockets off gov money.

Indeed, madman. Momentary elation followed by years of anemic recovery and my newborn son having to spend the prime earning years of his life to pay Norwegian-level taxes just to pay back the debt we racked up and saddled him with right along with the children and grandchildren of everyone here on this forum.

I'll bet you were all over it when Bush/Cheney gave a massive tax cut and then followed that up with not one, but two unfunded foreign wars. Yeah, I bet you were screaming bloody murder about the debt and deficit back then, right? Or did you, like the vast majority of your fellow conservatives, wait until that black guy sneaked in to soil yourself over debt?

Hell, Trump is so bad that Biden in a wheelchair with test tubes coming out of his mouth would probably still defeat that fat orange idiot in the Oval Office.

Trump is going to win in November. I am 100% confident in my prediction. No person in their right mind is going to put Biden in charge of recovering the economy after a historic loss like this. No one. We are at great depression level unemployment over a overhyped illness. Do you think the people who lost their jobs are going to back Biden? The people who lost their homes...businesses? No...Biden couldn't beat himself at this point.

Are you referring to the video of the woman getting kicked out of Trader Joe's for wanting to be kicked out of Trader Joe's?
