Everything is all good guys...

I make decisions every day to not put myself in a position to die. I can't make those same decisions with this virus. It's 99.9% luck. I have 2 people in the house that go to work.....what control do I have over them not bringing it home? They wipe down and take precautions but at the end of the day they're at the mercy of the people they're near while out. It's like the guy said on the Joe Rogan podcast....how do you stop the wind?

Interesting. I don't recall him being quite as flippant about 9/11, which "only" killed 3,000.

US just passed Italy

 

[Super44]

Let me guess. You don’t live on the west coast do you?

Did not think I had to be so specific as I was REPLYING to the post that specifically stated Austin and New Orleans!

And AGAIN, I will leave it right there.

As far as not living on the west coast goes. I do not, not do I really care to. Sorry.

US just passed Italy

It was inevitable, would you not think? It was just a matter of time.

US just passed Italy

Yeah... we'll be #1 within hours.

US just passed Italy

What's your point? Our entire country is 5 1/2 times the population of Italy. Of course we are going to pass the number of cases in Italy.

While maybe so (matter of opinion as far as being flippant), but it is just putting things into persoective, as far as pure numbers go. That said, this has the real POTENTIAL to kill thousands more. I think that is what he is missing the boat on, like many other folks.

While maybe so (matter of opinion as far as being flippant), but it is just putting things into persoective, as far as pure numbers go. That said, this has the real POTENTIAL to kill HUNDREDS OF thousands more. I think that is what he is missing the boat on, like many other folks.

Spain, Europe's worst-hit country after Italy, says coronavirus tests it bought from China are failing to detect positive cases

Spanish researchers found that the tests could identify cases only 30% of the time. Testing delays could hamper Spain's efforts to slow the virus.
