Why aren't we hearing about these numbers?

So not everything is "Peaches and cream" in Europe?
It was-until the powers-that-be decided to prematurely reopen schools and colleges. Now all the good work done by our NHS professionals has been thrown back in their faces and we're back to square one, facing both a resurgence of Covid as well as all the seasonal conditions with the onset of colder weather.. Thanks Boris!

Back to your very citizenry that are majority idiots?

But schools and universities are necessities(Still have social distancing)

Pub's are not

Schools AND Pubs!!!
 
Like the ugly feminists did way back when with their bras, we will have a mask burning day.

Hopefully the ugly Republicans do so while wearing theirs so you are less offended this time around.

Yes. Anywhere that people congregate in close proximity should be closed down for the duration. If the economy suffers so be it. Economies recover; we're still here after all the pandemics we have had to deal with in the past, including the Black Death and the devastating 1918 outbreak, have come and gone.
For now this is the 'new normal' and people need to get used to the fact and quit whining about 'rights'.

 
These numbers on the survival rate of folks who get Covid-19 came out this week from the CDC:

View attachment 67296403

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.

.

The numbers have always been around .2 to get, .2 to survive. Don't see much change.

The real question is why with the draconion measures we have taken, why haven't we seen an improvement?

Even six feet a part and wearing masks?

My school is open Snake and there's little problems

Great point

Just a few more trillion in the hole will do it this time?

So far. Schools have been open only a matter of weeks in the UK and already several universities have ordered student isolation because hundreds of new infections have been detected. It's early days; just wait and see.

There are very few good looking feminists, which is the reason they are feminists. The men don't want women with hairy underarms, legs and mustaches. Or women who think they are freed when they don't have to wear makeup. All the really good looking women are Republicans like Katy McElhaney, Christy Noem and the Dems are just jealous.

Because, simply put, those so-called draconian measures have either been ignored by arrogant libertarians too stupid to understand why they were enacted, or states decided to reopen prematurely, thus guaranteeing a resurgence in infections.
 
What those numbers tell us is that every age group has a high survival rate. Most have a VERY high survival rate.

The OP is telling us that he doesn't think these survival rates justify shutting down our economy and our society.

Do you disagree? Do you think we should continue with our shutdown based on these numbers?

If you say yes, do you think we should shut down our economy and society for EVERY disease that has these rates or worse rates?
No,
Great point

The answer, of course, is we're probably doing the wrong thing the wrong way.

Not to worry. Young people get COVID and on;y a VERY tiny number die from it. Less than from lightning strikes. You know this.

Your evidence of this?

"Good looking"? How can you tell under inches of makeup, nose jobs, collagen implants, fake tits and false eyelashes-especially McNinny's-if she flapped them too hard she'd take off.

I couldn’t care less who you prefer to disappoint sexually.
 
No,

I know we did the wrong thing

Especially giving people 1,200$ to people who don't even need it

That's Gov for ya

I don't see that. Citizen compliance from my observance is around 95%. Virtually 100% of the schools and government has shut down. Yet no improvement. Those arrogant libertarians probably comprise less than 5% of the population. In line with my observed compliance rate.
