If you dared post this blasphemy on Facebook or Twitter your account would be suspended. I expect that if Kamala Harris wins you would be arrested for posting facts like you have so carelessly done.
Politics and Pandemics don't mix and people should stop trying to mix them.Because that would be bad for the left
It's an election year.These numbers on the survival rate of folks who get Covid-19 came out this week from the CDC:

I'm sorry, but with numbers like this the government (aka states) should end all mandatory shut-downs and restrictions. It's time to restore individual freedom and allow people to choose how they want to live their lives and how they want to address Covid-19.

I have had many here say that if an old person would live just 3 months longer with a lock down and disastrous unemployment we should do it.
It's an election year.
Because the only solution to a pandemic is panic, overreaction and toilet paper.
The data I'm getting out of Tucson is that this thing is MUCH worse for those of advanced age than those who are younger. They have not released any information regarding data on comorbidities in those who succumbed to the virus out here but I'm starting to suspect that even reasonably healthy older folks have little to worry about. What I'm seeing indicates that if you're 75 and in decent health your risk of having problems related to the virus are greater than that of someone who is 25 and in decent health. Your risk might even be twice that of the 25 year old. However, if your neighbor is your age, severely overweight, hypertensive and has CHF his chances of having problems related to the virus are a LOT higher. Then again, his chances of having an issue while sitting on the john are also a whole lot higher than yours.

Like the ugly feminists did way back when with their bras, we will have a mask burning day.Well, that's a dumb comment. Congrats!!
If Trump wins he'll have Consigliere Barr arrest anyone with a mask and put them into reeducation camps!!
Like good leftists we all should show solidarity that the herd is being culled of the weak and old and decimate the economy do we share their pain,Great. Quote one of those 'many' who say that.
And how do we identify these old people with just three months to live? There's no need to just let them get COVID and die, we should probably, I think, just not treat them for anything at all. Think of the money we'd all save!!! **** the old! MAGA!!
Because people of any age are as important as the next guy. Your post indicates that you think old people are expendable. Everyone's life matters.

Publishing all the numbers, not just the ones you want the people to know about has nothing to do with giving a damn or not about old people. It has more to do with letting the people know the whole story than just half the story you want them to know.yes, and 2+2=4. Also true - we're actually treating the pandemic LESS seriously than many countries not in election years.
Does that it's an election year mean we should or shouldn't give a damn about old people dying from COVID. I'm a little confused.
No, you haven't got it right.So based on the OP, since it's only presumably old, worthless people who are at higher risk of dying, the optimal reaction is to say - to heck with them! let those old people die!
Have I got that right?
That's an excellent point. You know, western medicine really does a disservice to the human race. If you have a comorbidity, modern medicine means you can live often DECADES with that problem. Which is a ****ing waste of resources really. Survival of the fittest isn't just a slogan, you know. If the people with high blood pressure are killed off, what's the problem, really, when you think about it? We clear out the genetic deadwood!
old people die ! nature's way ...Great. Quote one of those 'many' who say that.

What those numbers don't indicate is the damage to someones body that covid 19 will do , even if you survive it https://www.sciencemag.org/news/202...ovid-19-s-lingering-problems-alarm-scientistsThese numbers on the survival rate of folks who get Covid-19 came out this week from the CDC:

The Medical Thought Police – They’re Coming for You
A group calling itself “The Global Health Security Network (GHSN) Limited” was formed last June, in Australia. …. They have just issued their first Policy Report. that recommends policies that are the complete opposite of their stated mission.
Recent revelations have shown it to be categorically true that “Covid-19 deaths” have been exaggerated, at least in the United States, by mandate from the CDC and other health officials.
old people die ! nature's way ...
And that's why Democrats want to kill them before they're born, right?So do young people! In fact in nature, it's newborns most at risk of dying. NATURE'S WAY indeed!! It's too bad so many newborns that nature would dictate must die because they are WEAK instead survive and pollute the gene pool with their inferior DNA!! MAGA!! by not saving those weak infants!!
No, you haven't got it right.
The idea is that if we know which people are most vulnerable then we can work to protect them without creating a whole world of stupid for everyone else. We keep ending up in these situations because one of the core tenets of progressivism is that the people, on the whole, are dumb as stumps and need goverrnment to protect them from themselves.
And that's why Democrats want to kill them before they're born, right?
Yeah, like Der Fuhrer said, no one dies from this.These numbers on the survival rate of folks who get Covid-19 came out this week from the CDC:

Has to do with co-morbidities and reporting incentives. There are certainly grounds to debate these issues. The point of the article is that it's not helpful to suppress contrary opinions.I thought I could avoid WUWT drivel by staying off the Climate Forum. Guess I was wrong about that....
FWIW, I quit reading at this point:
That is of course complete bullshit, a lie, and of course the WUWT hack offered no link to support this "categorically true" statement.
Nobody is accepting the killing of the elderly and nobody expects the, or wants them, to sacrifice their lives to the virus. What we are saying, and you are ignoring, is that it’s MUCH easier to help protect the lives of the vulnerable than it is to impose and enforce absurd mandates in everyone, crash the economy and invoke panic with every news release.If you want to address the obvious point, that's fine. If not I'm not chasing your goal posts around.
I'm a little surprised the party that brought us "death panels" is so casually accepting of killing off the elderly if necessary to boost the economy and Trump's reelection chances.
