  1. People die in hospitals every day, all day long. Not surprised to see a nyc hospital over run according to ny times; that yellow journalism rag changes headlines to influence opinion - I soooo miss journalistic integrity. They said they were short on supplies well before the outbreak btw. The German death rate now is 0.4% since they do mass RANDOM testing, not the crackpot CDC/Italian `just test the sickest' philosophy (I could show you 99mpg on my burb if I took a small enough sample). They need to fire everyone at the CDC for this quackery, and strip their medical credentials. Open up the small businesses - its not fair when so many `essential` things are open allowing spread. Small businesses can limit exposure just as well...
  2. I have come to the same conclusion. Good in the mud, but crappy at 80mph, loud and slippery when wet. Hate to say I like the buttery ride from stock michelin energy savers vs look of RGs. Im returning while I can get full refund from amz. Really liked the look though... Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk
  3. Its impossible for China not to have had hundreds of millions infected - millions were bolting wuhan weeks before the shut down jan 23. This has not just begun. Testing just began, but the virus has been around us for months now infecting almost everyone. You will be told this later. Stop watching the news (just stick with local for weather). They are not correctly testing all people - only the sick - and they are assuming a virus somehow waited until now to start spreading (maybe it hung out at the viral lounge). Gotta see bright side. I got in on a nice energy fund a few days ago, and its doing really well. Gotta love driving to work in this post Thanos snap traffic with gas at a bone fiddy. Pollution is way down helping to keep copd patients off the edge and out of the hospital. Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  4. There is the panic way which new york is doing, and there is the pragmatic way like we are doing in Texas. Ill take TX every day. Todays newest panic piece from ny times talks about running out of vents, then you read the story, and they "almost did" but were replenished by other hospitals. Vents are rented all the time in flu season which is mainly over. Why do you think a positive covid = sure ventilation and death? WAY more people are infected than the numbers show, and most need to do nothing. This is swine flu 2, and honestly, it just has to run its course... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  5. Really, you know? You know nothing but what you are fed. Tell me what you know about mechanical ventilation. ALL HOSPITALS are waiting for this phantom menace that barely shows (unless you are in a scared state). NOBODY HAS RUN OUT OF VENTILATORS. Its a cold, and you are a FOOL media "cleaner." You cant handle the truth or 30k vents, because you dont know what they do... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  6. Great video - he explains it all very well although you cant round down to 1 for the flu from 1.3 - small increases make a massive difference, especially almost 1/3rd more... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  7. Not turning blue, but getting purple. Too many emigrants from blue states cant seem to stop voting to screw themselves - its a way worse disease than the mild flu-like coldvid19... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  8. The idiot NY mayor is doing nothing but spreading fear. They need 30k ventilators!? I guess they will tube anyone who sneezes. Stupidest thing I have ever heard. HE BETTER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR SPREADING THAT BULLSHIT! COLDvid isnt going to need even 100 EXTRA vents compared to what already happens every single january (remember, somehow we have enough vents for the 50k deaths every year from flu and that season is ending). A ventilator costs $30-40k and is more sophisticated than any other hospital device save CT or MRI scanners - no company can just start cranking them out in a week. There is a pattern of fear mongering in certain states and municipalities - can you spot the pattern? Think about it when you vote, as I am convinced someone with an ax to grind has their finger on the panic button in the CDC... Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk
  9. The average age of covid death in Italy is 81. Life expectancy there is 82. Seems they are counting every death as a covid death no matter how they actually die... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  10. It is interesting how people talk about this curve. It is valuable if you know when and where the original outbreak began and are able to measure everyone infected from that single point (its a lab mice model). But if the source came from multiple points at multiple times, AND isnt measured until AFTER most of the people have been infected (with or without symptoms), its just a useless textbook picture... Imagine just starting to test right now for this years seasonal flu; you would see a rapid incline from zero, but you are actually at the end of this years cycle. 4-6k deaths would appear quite alarming, but considering 45k have already died, it is a false trajectory. The cdc says 60 million a year get the flu in the US with only a fraction testing positive, yet covid is only counted by positive tests? I have full confidence, covid19 will have infected over a billion people worldwide making the death toll much more in line with the flu if not less since children are not affected near as much. Wuhan is a very polluted city in a communist country, while Italy is showing an average age of death from covid19 at 81 years (seriously?). See the 2011-14 articles reviewing the 2009 H1N1 outbreak for information on this (not the newer stuff as it is biased as hell like everything these days)... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  11. Currently, only the sickest patients are being tested, which of course skews the %; do that with the common cold and you will shake in fear. The post mortem on this whole outbreak in the coming months will expose it as the biggest overestimation of all time with permanent damage to the credibility of the medical community. Mark my words... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  12. The flu needs nothing else to kill you. This and flu - in rare cases - fill alveoli with fluid causing hypoxia needing mechanical ventilation or ECMO. You can catch the flu when you have coronavirus. You can catch hiv when you have bacterial pneumonia. You certainly can catch bacterial pneumonia with coronavirus. There is no sickness that fends off another sickness. In fact, having any infection opens you to other infections, and deaths most often occur with multiple infections - its the straw that breaks the camels back... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  13. Honestly, a 2٪ death rate to mostly the already weak and sick is a really shitty bioweapon. You could show the same general stats for flu every year for a news headline (why dont they?). Dallas mayor just closed everything and stated that they were now the most aggresive city in TX vs covid19. LOL! This is 100٪ political... Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk
  14. Every year up to a third of all colds are coronaviruses. Adenovirus and rhinovirus are the other main cold bugs. This is just a new unusual (novel) one. Nasty cold you could say, not the "Mutaba" virus from Outbreak... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  15. Just wash your hands - better than any sanitizer... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  16. Also dont greet like Italians... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  17. The silver lining here is maybe from now forward more people will stay home when they get sick, wash their hands more often, and get vaccines. I hate going out somewhere and hearing some dipshit hacking and sneezing all over the place without any concern for others. Cv19 and flu infects around 2 per 1 infected; measles infects 19 per 1 infected yet the idiot anti-vaccine crowd has been pushing for their "right" not to vaccinate and put us all at risk... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  18. 17-18 was really bad. People think the annual 50k flu deaths is made up. Its hit every single year, and people dont even get vaccinated... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  19. No, this is what everyone at your work had a few weeks back - some got hammered, while others noticed little. It spreads quicker than H3N2 flu. Both originate in east asia with its large population sink for mutation. This wasnt being sealed off in wuhan by magic when we first heard of it - it had already been spreading through China and the world for weeks. The process of recognizing the pattern and developing a test is time consuming. We will never know true total infected, just the number of people showing up really sick since they do get tested. Keep in mind, the test will only show if you are currently shedding - if you have fully recovered from mild case, you wont test positive (nor would you likely ever have been tested). I dont like flu as it can kick your ass, but all the deaths are typically the same type of patient (except kids are spared here). Italians are much older with socialized medicine, which is why I pointed to South Korea for an example similar to the US... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  20. I work in healthcare with the type of patient that would require mechanical ventilation. For all intents and purposes, this is a flu. We had several flu like cases that tested negative for flu this season, but presented exactly the same. I believe covid 19 has ALREADY made the rounds weeks ago through the USA. A SARS2 presentation from covid19 is about as common as influenza complications, but if it is bad enough to put you in the ICU, you can die with either. Not as likely here as in China - you must look at South Korea to see how a democratic republic with modern heathcare copes with a new acute respiratory virus. I have seen many die from the flu. CV spreads quicker than flu, so it hit airports in december, hospitals and schools in jan, now is the leftovers. Same treatment as flu - drink lots of fluids, chicken soup, rest at home. Every year we test for flu, but it never stops it from spreading. I have no idea why this is being Ebola-ized except for being an election year. 100% media created hysteria that is screwing my 401k and my 529... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  21. You know they are. Same filters, fluids, and part numbers for many things... Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk
  22. I used them for my 18 burb - work great. They stay on with brights. Factory fogs are crap (couldnt even tell they were on) - try to find aftermarket housings that take h8/9/11 bulbs. Picked some up off amz cheap, and now I have 4 H11 leds facing forward with excellent visibility... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
  23. The 14 burb and 08 burb have same front... Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk
  24. There is a reason the g80 has lasted so long - it does the job. Better than an LSD and better than an e lock that just brakes opposite wheel. A good set of tires and a g80 will get you almost as far as 4 wheel drive - hell, I have never needed 4 wheel low with g80 except for when I was pulling a stump...

  25. +1 on my 18 . Only leave it on level 3 for a minute or two... Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk
