Maybe 1100 just had the sniffles. Idk. ..6 dead in Washington State..... https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/department-health-confirms-first-coronavirus-death-washington-state/XIDPHMLVOJAAREQ5YCL75367PU/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you choose to look at the worldwide data like a reasonable person, it's a fact that 80% show minor or no symptoms. And if they actually have the sniffles, then they're probably good...since that isn't even a symptom of the virus. That said, if you want to cherry pick one country to try and prop up your silly claim that "for everyone young and with full lung function, it will just be severe sickness, " that's cool too I suppose lol. Idk, I don't call the flu mild. You ever had it? Most everyone has at some point. How would you classify your flu symptoms? Mine were pretty severe. Hurt to even move about the 2nd or 3rd day. I understand they're only classifying around 13 percent as "critical" and 80 percent as mild. Depends on your definition of mild I suppose.

So, there's that I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that the age distribution of deaths resembles a normal flu virus. For all the extreme panic that IS being whipped by the TV and internet press (Drudge is despicable), this is NOTHING like the 1918 flu. A voice of reason in a cauldron of psychosis Thank you. Still need to caution on the safe side is my thought. I'll take my chances and not panic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we might as well live our lives. Once that realization sinks in, normalcy will return. Common sense tells those that know anything about diseases that this will be common as a cold in less than 2 years. Can it mutate, sure. If and when it does it will be met with new research and new treatments. Life ending events... I would worry more about a asteroid strike. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's one of the most unattractive things about conservatism. They're nihilists about everything that doesn't either benefit conservatism or their bottom line.

You just don't like the indirect blowback that may come and so you criticize the media for reporting news. That seems like a you problem. Sounds like he is trying to stop chicken little.

Why do you feel the need to go on Offense against me? You always seem to have some smart ass or insulting response to others? Why is that? Why do you feel like you need to insult others? Serious question, does it make you feel better? Have you ever thought about maybe seeing a Clinical Psychologist? Also, Insults are childish and annoying. Often used when intellect fails.
