The Rat Trap

[Admin2]

You can spin all of this any way you choose. But you can't get away from the fact that we have had the worst experience with this virus (in terms of cases and deaths) of any industrialized country in the world. I miss the days of 'the buck stops here' now its "I take no responsibility".

Know this won't be met well, but facts are stubborn things.

But you're blinded by CNN, think for yourself.

Here are some facts.

China with 1,300,000,000 that's one BILLION three hundred million people who have been exposed to the virus longer than any population in the world is currently claiming that 4,000 people have died from the virus and that they have had 80,000 cases.

India with an estimated population of 1,100,000,000 2/3 rds of which live in such abject poverty the government never knows of them from birth to death is saying that they have had 62,000 deaths from 3,000,000 cases and they have been exposed to the virus for two months longer than the US.

China is just straight up fucking lying and India is doing the best they can but simply doesn't know. (Don't even bother saying shit about it unless you have been there. Millions of people die every year in India that never even get counted.

The US is third in population and third in cases and third in deaths. What a fucking shocker.

In fact if you look at countries by population then look at corona statistics its fucking amazing how all of the totalitarian countries with state run media are doing an out fucking standing job "containing" the virus and fucking Fauchi, the fucking epidemiological fucking genius has never said a word about China's data.

Fucking open your eyes, corona is a serious thing, but it's not the world stopper the media is saying it is. Every single credible medical source that advocates anything except the draconian measures DEMANDED by CNN and their ilk immediately get deplatformed.

Remember three months ago when I said Sweden was doing it right and all of Team Lockdown quoted all kinds of data why they didn't?

Here, now go get your fucking shine boxes.

It's a virus without a vaccine, with an R0 greater than 2. 5 everybody is going to get it and overwhelmingly nearly everybody will make a full and complete recovery and please for gods sake don't quote me the mysterious "proven" long term effects for a virus that isn't even a year old. There will be some and they will be a minuscule number of cases. That won't stop CNN from posting about it non stop. The European countries that were doing "better" than Sweden are now going through their second round because these lockdowns do nothing but prolong the agony.

I would echo this statement. C3 is right.

Woulda self isolated wore a mask (maybe at times) and washed my own goddamn hands without being told to do so so the entire USA wouldn't have been shut down. I mean, its just flu season albeit a nasty one, its still just business as usual. Smh.

We are the 3rd largest country in the world plus one of the most competent in gathering data. Factor that into your doom and gloom statement.

I would echo this statement. C3 is right.

The 40 million of us who have been financially destroyed by shutting down the universe aren't moved by the mismanagement and double talk. Medical pros told us masks were unnecessary and now they are required. Why the change? They say because they didn't want us to panic. Bullshit. The idea of deliberately lying because they think we can't handle the truth is the epitome of elitism. Translated, "I know what is best for you and you don't, so listen to me because you are too stupid to take care of yourself. " The problem is, if you lie to me once, how do I know if you ever tell me the truth? "The Boy Who Cried 'Wolf'" comes to mind. We also know the numbers are skewed, enough documented cases of accident victims dying and their death blamed on the Rona.

Should facts and science determine our decision? OK. But what do you do when the scientist lies and the "facts" are misrepresented in the press with an agenda?

Because, here is my take on it all. It was not necessary to shut down the economy. It wasn't necessary for the five pandemics of the 20th century or the previous one of this century. No. The economy was shut down for political reasons. We need term limits and a balanced budget amendment to the constitution.

Now I feel much better.

Stupid people don't like facts and science, they base their decision on emotions and what they read on Facebook feed.

I thought this was a mongering site. Not CNN. Especially spending hundreds on pussy while complaning about the state of the economy. Sounding like a bunch of priveliged NBA players.

It's a disease that impacts older adults much more seriously and the underlying illnesses have a great deal to do with it. Unfortunately this is not a healthy country. The FACT is that the US has an obesity rate over 36% which is much higher than any other industrial country. That compares to 23% for Spain, 22% for Germany and 21% for France. It's not even close.

Now add to that the FACT that the United States has higher PROPORTION of adults over 65 years old than any of those countries and it blows away your argument. Then you can tack on the number of citizens that travel to and from China and the US to any other industrial country. Do you think the Chinese travelers are overwhelming Tijuana, Brazil, Turkey or Quatar?

You're talking apples and oranges.

There were 3200 flights from China to the US including many directly from Wuhan until Trump banned them. The scientists told him he didn't have to, Biden, Pelosi, Shumer and the Media said it was racist and xenophobic but it was the right thing to do and probably saved hundreds of thousands of lives. Remember Pelosi and DeBlasio walking around without masks during that time telling people that their Cities are open and safe and people should come visit? These are his main critics now that blame Trump for everything.

760,000 Chinese Nationals and Americans flew from China during that time until Trump put a stop to it. The same thing goes for banning flights from Spain and France that were hotspots and 800,000 people came to the US from there during that time. He was ridiculed about those flights being banned but it saved American lives.

The US wouldn't supply funds? Are you fucking crazy? They've spent over 6 trillion so far and operation Warp Speed has them throwing all kinds of money to get a vaccine as soon as possible. What more could have been done.

You're crying about limited toilet paper and the lack of a lock down at the same time. Are you serious?

The States are better able to determine their best solutions. Should New York City have the same restrictions as Wyoming, Montana and the Dakotas? Sure, some Governors fucked up are you reading this Cuomo?

It's Monday morning Quarter backing at its worst.

The bottom line is our country is the worst in the world in infections and deaths. The shutdown didn't work because it was not followed up with any sort of plan. This knucklehead in the White House hasnt done shit, left everything up to the states. Shutdowns worked in other countries because they also employed testing and tracing and isolating. As for the masks, we were told they werent necessary because there werent enough for even health care workers, let alone the general population. The GOP let the cupboards run dry and wouldn't approve funds to restock our supply. Hell, we ran out of toilet paper for months, still can't buy disinfectant wipes. The president has no idea what to do. Oh yeah, a miracle is coming and this is going away any minute now, just ask Herman Cain.

I'm glad you feel much better and thanks for your opinion.

The reason the White House and fauci in partiuclar lied about us not needing masks is because he later admitted there were not enough for us silly mortals and the medical community, so they came first. A federal balanced budget amendment sounds great but we would need to dig out of the 27 trillion we are in the red on now, and can only afford the interest payments not a dime of principal is paid. , and if interest rates rise we can't afford the interest. We are in bad bad shape, but we are the best of the worse, and the worse is all other countries.

We can hopefully, all agree that the virus is real, it is highly contagious and can lead to death for a small percentage. I too, believe the numbers are skewed big time. Our local News 6 reporter had to ask DeSantis three times during a press conference to get him to admit that the numbers shown as cases, were really positive test results. Some persons that get the COVID have been tested as many as ten times before they can get the required two negatives, two days in a row. So, right there, shows you the numbers are not correct.

Now, we keep hearing about a vaccine. But yet there were 62 doctors on the steps of the Capital a few weeks ago. They were screaming to the rooftops that the Hydroxychloroquine / Zinc / antibiotic cocktail works and is nearly 100% effective if started early on. They also claim that taking only one tablet every two weeks will prevent you catching the virus. There are over 300 doctors in America alone that are swearing by this treatment process. These doctors are risking their practices and reputation by doing this. But yet, they are scoffed at. In Australia, they are now claiming a 100% success rate using Ivermectin and the other two medicines used in the cocktail. Yes, the very same de-worming medicine used in horses and pets. It's even cheaper than the Hydroxychloroquine.

So I guess Big Pharma / Big Brother / Big NWO / Big who knows, wants people to die and to control the rest of us. We can't have 20 dollar drugs cure this virus when we need one thousand dollar vaccines with mediocre results, instead.

IDK what to think anymore other than it all SUCKS big time!

Covid will no longer be a major problem on November 4th.
