I work in a gov't office in a secret underground undisclosed location, as they say.  No, really.  We received a briefing from an epidemiologist in Washington State.  He said that if you put someone infected with COVID-19 in the middle of a room containing 100 people, only 2-3 would get sick, and not all of those would die; certainly not for those who were under 60 and who didn't have health problems like heart conditions or diabetes.  But if you put someone with measles in that same room, 25+ would catch it.  But here were are running around like chickens with our heads cut off over COVID-19, just because the George Soros-funded liberal mainstream media is desperate to hurt our economy, because they think that's the only way they have left to prevent Trump's re-election.

The question you have to ask yourself is why it's named COVID19, because COVID #1 - 18 were just as virulent corona viruses but ill timed politically.

I thought the 19 came from the fact that it began in December 2019. I don't know anything about COVID #1-18.

if you want a real comparision, check out the numbers on those who contracted the flu back in 2017, and those who died from the flu in 2017, then look at the corona virus numbers...  it's all propaganda money making scheme to control the masses. 

 

remember a month back CHina had its hands full getting control on Hong Kong, seems like a great strategy to control those who are out of control from a government standpoint.

Social media is the main cause I’m not saying it’s not a serious virus or anything like that at all. Just need to be smart that’s all. It seems like everyone holds onto what the media or social media is putting out there. Same thing with a snow storm mass hysteria shelves are empty snow blowers are double priced. The whole toilet paper epidemic if your shitting that much get yourself to a hospital lol.

best source for alternative toilet paper is Autozone... if you haven't tried it yet, I suggest you get yourself a roll of those blue paper towels. Man they are the best ass wipe I've ever used , feels like your using a t-shirt , its soft and it never breaks!

It's apparent to me that this is a manufactured, retaliatory crisis by China (perhaps a biological weapon) as punishment for our economic sanctions.  The hype and panic is appalling and isn't warranted yet is being driven by our media - and who exactly owns OUR media, just as who owns the Disney corporation?

This is also an election year.  What would the Chinese government want?  Would they want a US President that is going to be lenient or difficult with China?

China's presidency is a dictatorship - there is no 4 year term.  Whatever his face is in China can sit on that throne forever.

Also don't forget Hong Kong's uprising.  What ever happened to that?  Wasn't Wuhan located nearby?

"Conspiracy theories" sure.  What you've been told, you don't know!

Made a trip to Costco yesterday and it was unreal. I heard from neighbor's that it was even more crazy today- lines wrapped around the store, etc.

My work makes deliveries to Costco, I could barely make it into the parking lot today.

 

A family friend works at one and they sold out of toilet paper in 11 minutes and many other things in not much time after that. People have gone mental here.

I asked a woman at Kroger tonight how will all the bleach in the world keep her from getting sick? She just looked at me and I told her it’s no different then the Flu and she said but the media is making it out to be a zombie affect, I told her that’s what they’re wanting and she asked why? I told her Election Day is coming up and she just gave me a blank stare.

 

All the chemicals in the world won’t help anyone, neither will toilet paper cause if I’m getting the runs that bad I’d use the cooling sensation off the water hose lol

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...

    • Well one of our most reliable vehicles was sold yesterday. The first and only I gave for free to a grandkid. If they got skin in the game they take care of it. My wife bought new. Five years later my daughter got it to use. We got it back and gave it to our grandson after graduation. He did zero maintenance just oil changes. When the AC quit he drove his mother’s car rather than get it fixed. Instead he just bought a beater and sold the Elantra. 
    • I usually do as well or better than the sticker for mileage. Usually better going west than east. North then South. Wind makes a difference. I’m not usually a conspiracy theorist. But it did dawn on me I’m going by the vehicle calculation. Now that would be interesting.

    • What’s missing in all this is patience and investment in the future. Buy a 170K starter home. Ten years later sell it invest in a more expensive home. Eventually you’ll have a 600K home and pay starter home payments. Buy a starter car. Maintain it well. Save the payments after it’s payed for then buy an expensive car if you desire. Buy a tumbler make your own coffee, pack your lunch. Cook your own dinner. Most importantly take care of your car.
    • People mislead themselves. Statistics are highly useful indicators.   Here's the tie-in to this thread. If an oil sample tests shows a wear indicator of 7 using cheaper ACDelco oil, and a wear indicator of 2 (lower = less wear) using a particular brand of Mobil oil, and wear has a linear relationship with engine lifespan, anyone could assume that Mobil is reducing wear by more than 50% (let's just say a 200% reduction for you red state people trying hard to do math) which leads to increasing engine life by 2x. Perhaps, in a vacuum, by itself, when dreamed by AI.   Yeah?! That's what the statistic is saying, isn't it?   No, it isn't. It didn't come out and say engine life is doubled. That's a very bad assumption, and a case of severe myopia by assuming something potentially untrue about the only data point in focus.   Average cost of a new car is 50k. You bet it is.   The median cost of a new car is more like 35k. Expensive cars are skewing the perception that "average" now means a $50k price of entry for a very average automobile. And that's not true. People who don't understand statistics twist the living heck out of them to mean all sorts of things they don't actually mean.   "Average" new car payment is $1000/month. Yep, it is. And in that number are all the $35k new car buyers who bring significant equity, and the $25k new car buyers who finance the car for a month just to get a rebate, and then pay it off. Know what isn't in that number? All the payments made by people who don't finance a car.   Picking one's own data point (don't have a car payment, never paid $50k for a new vehicle, my house cost $170k, I afforded a middle class lifestyle on $4.50/hr) is just a data point. Just like earning $25/hr in an area where the median home price is almost $1 Million is a data point. In fact, it's a lot of data points given that 80% of the US population lives in/around major cities. They're not idiots; the vast majority of them do it to make a living because that's where the big money is.   The highs have become higher, lows have become lower, and how your personal mileage varies is not truth for an entire country. At the same time you can't NOT acknowledge the data. While it doesn't paint YOUR personal picture, it certainly tints the reality that you also live in, as does your single data point.
