US rated most prepared in October 2019...Its Obama's fault for not restocking before he left, I'm told. Thanks Obama!
Isn't that what has always been important to him? Crowd size and tv ratings?I see he’s tweeting about how great his press conference ratings are. Way to focus on the important stuff.
lol....nice sarcasmIts Obama's fault for not restocking before he left, I'm told. Thanks Obama!
Surivior and Amazing Race.I think it’s a chick who was on The Amazing Race
Not only that, we haven't seen the repercussions of the spring breakers.We're still weeks away from those things. If we're not at, or right near 100k deaths in a month, it'd be a miracle.
Exponential growth doesn't stop overnight. As exponential growth continues across the country, and people get sick, and healthcare systems get overloaded, the deaths will increase. I'm not a doomsday person...it's just the consequence of how this thing spreads and where we are in terms of being able to slow its spread through testing, treatment, isolation, contact tracing. We're nowhere near where we need to be on almost all levels...so why would the curve not continue to spike? Several more weeks of growth will put us at levels of loss of human life that will be utterly mind-boggling.
Kinda like 100k infections was mindboggling a few weeks ago when we just had a handful of infections known in the country. But exponential growth showed that we'd be here. The same natural forces will push us in this direction, unfortunately. Folks I know, who are doing OK today, will likely be dead within a couple of months. Not a lot, but 1-3% for sure...and if I knew a disproprotionate number of elderly folks, that % will be higher.
Which part? There’s so manyWhy is this ok? Why do people think this is acceptable?
and whats that?Why is this ok? Why do people think this is acceptable?
Valid point, was just smh at the ratings thing.Which part? There’s so many
How is tweeting about ratings at all relevant, acceptable, and not reprehensible?and whats that?
Jon, people are not working on a cure. They are working on a vaccine and treatments. There is no cure.People are vigourously working on the cure.
Seriously. How could a President dispensing bad information do any damage so long as he's telling people what they want to hear?Hey man, if Trump wants to go out there and say there’s an imminent cure and name-drop specific medications despite any training or education on the subject, I say stop being such a wet blanket and let him give people hope. Literally nothing bad can happen as a result.
It is reprehensible. Trump does vile and reprehensible things all the time.How is tweeting about ratings at all relevant, acceptable, and not reprehensible?
Yeah just venting.It is reprehensible. Trump does vile and reprehensible things all the time.
that’s absurd. of course you can. any functioning non-narcissistic sociopath could do it. oh right....Look, Trump is just trying to be optimistic and you can’t be optimistic while properly preparing in advance because that would send a mixed message. I can’t believe people are mad that he’s trying to be a shining light in the darkness like he always has been.
I like when he talks about how hot his daughter is and how he would date her in the right scenario.It is reprehensible. Trump does vile and reprehensible things all the time.
Maybe people are watching because they are interested in the subject and not about who the host is.Trump is incorrect. A lot of people dont watch The Bachelor live. If you include the dvr numbers his pandemic presser did not win the time slot. Nonetheless it is very impressive.
As my pastor has repeatedly saidare you calling 60% of Americans unreasonable?
True. I watch for the women.Maybe people are watching because they are interested in the subject and not about who the host is.
I know everyone here loves to nitpick, but a cure is a treatment which relieves or eliminates the symptoms. If a treatment works it is in fact a cure.Jon, people are not working on a cure. They are working on a vaccine and treatments. There is no cure.
The latest modelers are using 0.9 percent as a worst case. As more information comes in wrt testing across the entire populations, I can 100 percent guarantee you it will be below 1 percent.It’s on the low side. A best-case scenario
link?The latest modelers are using 0.9 percent as a worst case. As more information comes in wrt testing across the entire populations, I can 100 percent guarantee you it will be below 1 percent.
They tested comprehensibly compared to others, but it’s still at less than 1% of their total population. You think only 1% of South Korea had the virus?link?
South Korea tested as comprehensively as you can possibly test. We know their testing worked, too. Why? Because they stopped the spread.
Their death rate is1.4% and slowly climbing as everybody progresses through the virus.
Your guarantee of "well below 1 percent" is worthless, you realize that, right? It also goes against the data we have, the data the WHO provides, and mysteriously lines up with Trump's 1 percent figure (imagine that)
When this is all said and done, if data comes out that shows that the death rate was in fact .5%, ok? It still won't change the number of people that will ultimately die.
link?
The mortality rate is 1% as a floor. This isn’t really debatable anymore.
The whole routine of yours that numbers cited by you are right and numbers cited by others are wrong has been your tact from the start. Time will tell. And it's going to require a study of the people who are asymptomatic and those who cycled through without ever being tested because they had mild symptoms. According to some experts who are taking that into account, the final death rate could very well be under 1%.Your guarantee of "well below 1 percent" is worthless, you realize that, right? It also goes against the data we have, the data the WHO provides, and mysteriously lines up with Trump's 1 percent figure (imagine that)
Don't have a link, but recall an interview with a WH staffer (don't recall who, might have been the surgeon general) who used 0.7% as what they were projecting the mortality rate fall to based on the data they were seeing. Sorry don't have anything more concrete, but 0.7% is a number that would be a miracle to see after initial projections were in the 3% range.Watch the link below between the 4:00 and 6:30 mark. If you really want to understand the topic listen to the whole thing.

I'm sure if Obama tweeted during H1N1 that his press conference ratings were better than the Bachelor all of the Trump supporters and enablers here would have been fine with it. They'd probably also be fine with Obama if he bragged about barging in on naked teenage girls, cheated on his wife with a porn star and paid her off so she'd shut up about it, and got banned from operating nonprofits due to being too corrupt. I mean it's both sides.Our idiot in Chief is tweeting, bragging about TV ratings for his press conferences. Lovely.
So NyQuil is a cure for the common cold?I know everyone here loves to nitpick, but a cure is a treatment which relieves or eliminates the symptoms. If a treatment works it is in fact a cure.
Look, man. We're just trying to give people hope instead of churning out doomsday scenarios like the mainstream media. So if we say something is a cure just be happy instead of worrying about definitions.So NyQuil is a cure for the common cold?
Benadryl is a cure for allergies?
If you have a fever and it Nyquil eliminates it, by most definitions it is a cure. A better definition should include a permanent fix, but most definitions don't include that. Every definition of cure would include treatments which returns one to health from COVID-19.So NyQuil is a cure for the common cold?
Benadryl is a cure for allergies?
I generally disagree with just about everything you post, but I also generally enjoy debating you. That ends today. Your take on a “cure” is laughable. But keep fighting the good fight.If you have a fever and it Nyquil eliminates it, by most definitions it is a cure.

The range the Stanford Proessor provides and he is thoroughly analyzing all the available data and is a leading expert in this field said the range could be anywhere from .05% to 1.0 percent.Don't have a link, but recall an interview with a WH staffer (don't recall who, might have been the surgeon general) who used 0.7% as what they were projecting the mortality rate fall to based on the data they were seeing.

Provide a definition. I looked at several definitions online including medical definitions, and all of them included treatments. I am curious what definition you are using. I honestly could not find a single definition where a successful treatment is not considered a cure.I generally disagree with just about everything you post, but I also generally enjoy debating you.

How did this prevent spreading and saving lives, when right now it's spreading and people are dying?
Our exposure footprint was reduced. Take a look back in the thread on the Cell-phone heat map I posted from just one beach during spring break and how those people moved. Then apply that to people coming in daily and spreading out."One of the things we did right was very early cut off travel from China to the United States," he said, while noting that "outside of China, where it originated, the countries in the world who have it are through travel."
Fauci also said that those who became infected with the virus early on got it "from China or indirectly from someone who went some place then came to that particular country. "
The term "cure" means that, after medical treatment, the patient no longer has that particular condition anymore.Provide a definition. I looked at several definitions online including medical definitions, and all of them included treatments. I am curious what definition you are using. I honestly could not find a single definition where a successful treatment is not considered a cure.
Viruses are very tiny germs. They are made of genetic material inside of a protein coating. Viruses cause familiar infectious diseases such as the common cold, flu and warts. They also cause severe illnesses such as HIV/AIDS, smallpox, and Ebola.
Viruses are like hijackers. They invade living, normal cells and use those cells to multiply and produce other viruses like themselves. This can kill, damage, or change the cells and make you sick. Different viruses attack certain cells in your body such as your liver, respiratory system, or blood.
When you get a virus, you may not always get sick from it. Your immune system may be able to fight it off.
For most viral infections, treatments can only help with symptoms while you wait for your immune system to fight off the virus. Antibiotics do not work for viral infections. There are antiviral medicines to treat some viral infections.
Vaccines can help prevent you from getting many viral diseases.
A cure implies there is a certainty that a medical condition will not be present after a medical intervention.So NyQuil is a cure for the common cold?
Benadryl is a cure for allergies?
CURE noun
a means of healing or restoring to health; remedy.
a method or course of remedial treatment, as for disease.
Do you believe that there is a cure for the flu?Provide a definition. I looked at several definitions online including medical definitions, and all of them included treatments. I am curious what definition you are using. I honestly could not find a single definition where a successful treatment is not considered a cure.
The published numbers are up to 3:00am to account for delayed viewing. Are you talking about live+3 that's the only one I recall they have like 5 or more.Trump is incorrect. A lot of people dont watch The Bachelor live. If you include the dvr numbers his pandemic presser did not win the time slot. Nonetheless it is very impressive.
