Yup, the whole world has fabricated this event, just to hurt Trump.

Look up H1-N1. I rest my case.

I’m wondering. Remember H1-N1? Mass hysteria? Stock Market going crazy? Who’s going to make money? Who’s pushing the most hysteria?

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 in

Yup, H1-N1 was also fabricated to hurt Trump.

Last post to you. 300K hospitalizations, about 16K deaths, millions affected just in the US. Obama was president the media praise him for calling an emergency after 1000 deaths. Not much news coverage. No panic, not much change. No gearing up for the next pandemic, Right now there’s 200 cases of new cases every year. It probably gets lumped in to the other 19-30K flu deaths a year. So yea probably has nothing to do with the mostly liberal news media or Trump being president. Silly me.

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...

Ops, couple of decimal off. OMG I made a mistake. :) 10 in 100. Yep that's worse. You do know that antibiotics are ineffective against viruses I'm sure. 

 

My Grandfather (maternal) was in the service in 1919. They stacked bodies like cord wood where he was stationed. He was one of those bodies on the stack. Month of November. About 30 minutes later he walks back in the barracks fevered out of his mind butt naked asking where his clothes were. Nurses dropped. He stuck around till 1957. 

 

 

 

I do know that It is not the virus that kills you, it is the complications that can develop from the viral infection.... especially in the older crowd ....and antibiotics are excellent for treating bacterial infections like pneumonia. If you development a lingering viral infection and unchecked congestion ..... antibiotics will be prescribed, otherwise unchecked you'll drown in your own juices and/or from congestive heart failure.

Thank God,we have come along way,ain't nobody putting leeches on me,so,I just got back from the store,no shortage of t.p. here,so I'm good to go,pun intended

Come a long way?.....not so when it comes to leeches! Leeches are considered a medical device and as such regulated by the FDA.  Actually specially bred for use in some post op surgeries and injuries to remove infected blood and promote wound drainage.  Also good if you have a really bad black eye.

 

Crazy medicine? Well so is Crazy Glue which is frequently used to seal off brain aneurysms by neurosurgeons.

And yet, just today Trump is saying this problem can last until July or August, and that gatherings should be limited to under 10 people.

 

I guess he's in on the plot to destroy himself too...

He has no choice. Imagine the media if he did exactly as Obama did. Same media, same democratic leaders in congress. Exactly the same.

It’s easy to look up. The H1-N1 global deaths were close to 600K.

Yup, cuz if there is anything we've learned over the last 3 years, is that Trump follows along with mainstream media and does what they want.

 

Or he just realized a large part of his base is old people.

This obviously different. When he closed the border to China they screamed. Same old same old. But you can’t be convinced otherwise anyhow. As you can see most people can see it. Wait a week. People are going to say BS on this. I rather take a risk and be free. This is not freedom. I know how to wash my hands.

This is from the CDC website on H1N1 https://www.cdc.gov/flu/pandemic-resources/2009-h1n1-pandemic.html.  There are no concrete numbers only estimates.  The National Security Counsel had a Pandemic division but it was eliminated by this administration.  I won't make excuses for either political party since they're both equally annoying.  But what made H1N1 different from COVID-19 is that it was a form of flu.  The flu is dangerous because when severe it can cause bacterial pneumonia.  This however, is treatable with antibiotics.  COVID-19 is dangerous because it attacks the lower respiratory tract and is viral, meaning that antibiotics will not work against it.  So anyone with damaged lungs are in severe danger if they contract COVID-19.  This is why it's being treated differently.  

 

I hope for everyone's sake that they get this under control and that we were overcautious as opposed to what could happen.  I wish my family could treat this as passively as some, but my wife's doctors have told us how bad it would be if she caught COVID-19 with her Cystic Fibrosis.  And I'm not trying to be a single dad anytime soon.

Trump has been right from the get go, Lessons learned, we as a nation need to separate ourselves, becoming independent from China, we are the most powerful and richest country on the planet and don’t need our resources globalized by China.

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...

Just wash your hands - better than any sanitizer...

 

Washing your hands is preferred.  Hand sanitizer is a good second best when you don't have access to soap and water.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By tararebecca · Posted

      I agree, simplicity and reliability matter more as vehicles get more complicated. A V8 work truck option with fewer electronic features and a stronger warranty would definitely appeal to a lot of buyers who use their trucks for real work. Customizing it with trusted outfitters is often the best way to get exactly what you need.webcrimsNY

      2026 Sierra 1500 Denali - Sound upgrade?

      By artistemorbidity · Posted

      I’ve heard similar complaints from newer vehicles where the factory “premium” systems don’t always live up to expectations. A good installer should be able to improve the sound without turning it into a bass-heavy setup. I’d look into upgrading the front speakers, adding a quality DSP amplifier, and possibly improving sound deadening first—those changes usually make a much bigger difference than just adding a subwoofer. Hopefully someone local can recommend a reputable installer in the Las Vegas/St. George area.

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Do you remember that Harley Davidson was more successful (solvent) when it produced about 60% of the market demand (by design) and forced wait times of up to three years? Even when your turn came around it was, "Take what we are giving you or move to the back of the line and start over". HUGE markup's were 'normalized' and dealer killed. 40% markup and no floor plan? What's not to love? Greed will kill them yet. They have surplus production and customer base is tanking. And still they think nosebleed pricing will work.

      The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.

      Injector update

      By CamGTP · Posted

      Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
