Look at how many deaths we have saved from people not on the highways. There is probably a pretty good offset there.
Watch for the offset in suicides, death and hospitalization from 25+ million people being thrown out of work with no way to pay for insurance or even if they could, hospitals with plenty of capacity shutting down preventative care and elective procedures. NOTHING good is coming from this shutdown and I'll lay odds the if the tolls were taken honestly (ie, not every death being artificially attributed to Covid) the shutdown will have greater and more lasting damage than the virus. Besides a couple hot spots in the US, this has been pretty close to what flu season looks like and we don't do anything approaching this level for the flu, ever.Look at how many deaths we have saved from people not on the highways.

They are counting EVERY death that is covid related a covid death. Flu vaccine is about 40-60% effective. Wonder what the Covid-19 vaccine will be...as its 3 strain and counting.Watch for the offset in suicides, death and hospitalization from 25+ million people being thrown out of work with no way to pay for insurance or even if they could, hospitals with plenty of capacity shutting down preventative care and elective procedures.

In some places they are counting other deaths as well, it would seem they are trying to pad the numbers.
Great post. I'm glad you're listening to what the professionals are saying.You just are not going to convince the idiots out there that don’t believe this is real to take is seriously. My wife works with a guy that is now learning to walk again because of the virus. 28 years old and an avid runner. He came down with it and due to the lack of oxygen and blood clots he stroked out. Yeah it’s a farce and monkeys fly out of your *** too
I'd be careful what you ask for because you may get it. This is real and not something to be laughed or snickered at. You don't want this believe me. My neighbour caught it and she looked like death warmed up and nowhere near out of the woods yet after a monthfear-mongering, is all it is was and will be.
Stay inside out of the sun, and your skin fails to make vitamin D; the principle flu-fighter, together with vitamin C and I heard zinc.
Watch TV and and get the fear of death preached at you from morning til night.
Stay at home and your body does not make anti-bodies for it. And the next mutated form kills more, and the next strain kills yet more.
So stay at home, and prepare your body for failure.
If you don't make antibodies for this one, getaload of what the next one will do.
So I I have changed my life not one bit, tempting covid to attack me, so I can crush it, and come back here and tell you all about it.
So far no luck. It's either hiding from me, or my guardian angel is doing his job, or I am blessed with an extremely powerful immune system, or it's just not here. I will not be afraid. Not of covid, and not of the next evil bug that follows it.
Two more weeks have gone by and another 9000 pounds of household crap have I chucked,as the town garbage-collector. And the meet and greet continues in the streets, just as it always has.
Most of us did and do take it serious. obviously not as serious as you.You just are not going to convince the idiots out there that don’t believe this is real to take is seriously.

before covid you couldn't get within 6 feet of me, now it's 12.
I told my kids that tonight even before I read this and they laughed at me. That's OK, they are young. Stay at home for another 45 days....tell that to the contractor hair stylist who hasn't earned a dime in the last 5 weeks and is dead broke. multiply that by about 50 million. We all hold the Doctors and Nurses is very high regards, how about the millions that are staying home voluntarily, putting themselves in financial harm to keep others safe? There are heroes all around us... The only people that want to keep this country closed, and kill our economy are the Libs. They have tried every thing possible to take this President out of office. They want our economy to fail, because that's their only chance in the next election. ..
It's not that we are idiots, and I think that most of us do take it seriously, but we are not going to panic and stay at home while the government goes deeper into debt to send us all money. A month of quarantine was enough. It is time to open the economy back up. Those of you who want to stay in your homes are absolutely welcome to. I will take reasonable precautions, but I am done with the lockdown.You just are not going to convince the idiots out there that don’t believe this is real to take is seriously.

Amen to that, dude. They will do anything, up to and including destroying the country's economy to get back in power. I hope it backfires on them. They are working on another impeachment as we speak. That will be their October surprise.The only people that want to keep this country closed, and kill our economy are the Libs.

Its time for America to face our fears, and get back to business, get back to work.
