Posts: 392Again, mostly false
The World Health Organization NEVER said human to human transmission wasn't possible. People have to stop listening to Donald Trump when it comes to their health and matters relating to pandemics. If you want information on how to build a Hotel and take contractors and investors to the cleaners while doing it, Donald Trump is now and always has been an expert on that. Trumps claims about W. H. O. were immediately proven false by several outlets including members of his coronavirus response team. Right now Trump's only concern is getting re-elected and the current crisis is bad for his business. Business being getting re-elected and not to mention his golf courses / resorts. If you want proof that what Trump said about W. H. O. Is a lie, read this:

If you're looking for a scapegoat as to why we are in this pickle you can actually point directly at Trump. One of the first things he did when taking office was dismantling the Pandemic Response Division instituted after the H1 N1 outbreak of 2009. This organization had identified over 125 new strains of viruses that could eventually effect humans and were monitoring them to make sure they didn't jump to humans as well as early development of vaccines and treatments. I live in an area whose main industry is health care and specifically I'm friends with many people who work in research. My sister-in-law has a PhD in immunology and infectious disease and works in research at Vanderbelt University. I remember as soon at Trump canned that response team her exact words were "if there's any kind of worldwide threat as bad or worse than H1 N1, the country will be screwed", that's from her facebook post in 2017.
TOTALLY FAKE NEWS, sorry. Except the part about China, that's absolutely true but seriously, do we really ever trust China to give us the real story? Trump and the State Department should've known there was more to the story. The sad thing is with Trump pulling back funding for W. H. O. He not only put the lives of many people in foreign countries at risk, he increased the risk for USA Citizens since many of the Health Crisis' we encounter start in other countries. Now we have a weaker front line defense. Yeah.

New York already got their first round of stimulus and it wasn't based on anything related to covid-19 deaths. Payments were prorated based on population. Last year there were approx. 35,000,000 cases of "flu" reported in the USA And approximately 35,000 deaths. Yes, this season is slowing down dramatically because of social distancing. And yes, New York is getting hammered with covid-19 and there are RUMORS going around that they are fudging numbers and over reporting. But I assure you that the refrigerated trailers lined up outside hospitals are very real. On a typical day in New York City, 250 people die on average. They are stacking up 650-700+ covid deaths PER DAY since this got into full swing there and that's on top of the normal deaths which are down as you noted. That's real shit. Anybody who believes that stuff is being made up I welcome to go ahead and move to New York City. Please report back here with your experience. Don't write me a letter, don't know for certain if that shit will stay in an envelope for 3 days.

Posts: 394World Health Organization to Blame
Both Chinese government and WHO to blame. China shut their country down but allowed citizens from Wu Han to fly out to other countries knowing how bad this virus really was to heavily populated areas. WHO informed USA Officials like Trump, Governor Cuomo, Dr Fauzzi, New York mayor and health department of New York that human to human transmission was not POSSIBLE and was nothing more than a cold virus. Go back to January and listen to all these New York officials down playing it as harmless. Also CIA and military intelligence are thinking it now came from one of the two virus research labs in Wu Han but was not a biological weapon. Simply doing dangerous research on corona viruses with bats and not being careful. Patient 0 was a lab personal who had no symptoms spread it to general population. Looking like the worse is behind us numbers are falling.

Posts: 394Average Deaths in New York City
I was curious what the average normal death rate for a city like New York was and turns out the 12 month daily average is 145 deaths per day year around. So you could count on a higher average in late fall, winter, and early spring. I don't know if they are counting normal deaths among those claimed to have Corona virus or not. Since they are out to make it appear worse than perhaps it really is. The hospital ship trump sent is empty and they are tearing down the emergency hospitals the army corp of engineers erected due to no patients. Yes they suffered lots of deaths but look at the huge population many sick elderly living in a city with lots of air pollution and lung issues. Again the population density there would contribute greatly to the spread.

Hi Gents,
So as COVID-19 slows down and the contact tracing will begin. Meaning that if any provider go to the hospital or walk in clinic they will be tested for COVID-19. If Positive they will be hounded to get all there contacts.
Be safe.
GS.

Posts: 1191Unemployment
It all depends on if they claim their income and pay the taxes on it. Dancers / strippers are legal and escorts could report it using any number or self employed businesses but most don't because they don't want to give up the money for the taxes. I did do a little research and it looks like WI unemployment tops out at $370/ week (they'd probably pay that much in taxes each week) so it isn't much but with the 2. 2 Trillion stimulus they add $600/ week. They are trying to help people get through this but at the same time there are a LOT of people that will get more than their regular wages. Then you wonder how many don't realize that unemployment isn't taxed until you file in April which may take any refund or even make you pay more that they didn't save for.

Posts: 394Stripper Escort Unemployment?
Can or do strippers qualify for collecting unemployment? Guessing escorts cannot? Escort business may actually be increasing with bars all closed and no place to meet / pickup women. Just think of all the horny women that will be in bars after this virus is gone! Life seems more and more deserted and empty the longer this goes on. No traffic, bars and restaurants closed, our little town is a ghost town day and night. Thankfully farm and fleet and gun shops are open nearby. So far zero covid 19 my local area. But 8 in the county from kids doing spring break in Florida. Really surprised by that high of a number.
