Corona, your vids are nice.
[QUOTE=MongeringMicky;4716752]To determine who died from what would require there to be adequate testing. We are so short on tests only those who meet strict criteria are tested meaning we have no idea of how many infected we have. These aren't my words, they come from the Director of the CDC. We haven't even hit the u to pswing of this thing which will happen over the next 2 months
I've seen this movie play out in real time and I can assure you, it's going to get bad this week and exponentially worse over the coming weeks and months. Protect yourselves and each other.[/QUOTE]Not denying the spread of the virus, just saying it is not worth destroying our economy. The flu is lethal every year yet we have grown accustomed to those deaths, this is the same. And nice vids, keep it up.
I do guess that the military is all hyped as well
The USA Army is reaching out to gauge the interest of our retired officers, non commissioned officers and Soldiers who would be willing to assist with the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic response effort should their skills and expertise be required.
These extraordinary challenges require equally extraordinary solutions and that's why we're turning to you -- trusted professionals capable of operating under constantly changing conditions. When the Nation called -- you answered, and now, that call may come again.
If interested and you remain qualified to serve in any of the following health care specialties: 60 F: Critical Care Officer; 60 N: Anesthesiologist; 66 F: Nurse Anesthetist; 66's: Critical Care Nurse; 66 P: Nurse Practitioner; 66 T: ER Nurse; 68 V: Respiratory Specialist; 68 W: Medic. We need to hear from you STAT!
If you are working in a civilian hospital or medical facility, please let us know. We do not want to detract from the current care and treatment you are providing to the Nation.
While this is targeted at medical specialties, if you are interested in re-joining the team and were in a different specialty, let us know your interest.
I did remove contact information and personal from my email. So our military is believing the hyped.
You can lead a horse to water.
Compare flu and Corona deaths
[QUOTE=BillyWil;4715888]I'm a newbie to this board, have had only four (yes I admit I'm lame) different ladies, but the panic is insane. Google flu deaths vs corona deaths. If you are old and feeble stay home and jerk off, otherwise, party on.[/QUOTE]If you compare death from Flu to death from Corona, you have to give Corona a full year to run. Right now the comparison is a full year of Flu vs less than two months of Corona. Should we go about our business taking the same precautions as we do for the Flu and see what happens? The Flu is also a corona virus and it often attacks the nasal passage, sinus, throat and sometimes lungs. Covid 19 goes hard at the inner lining of the lungs. The body produces mucous and other fluids in response. Fluid in the lungs is Pneumonia and that fluid often triggers a secondary bacterial infection. Without the right medical care, the patient suffocates on their own snot. Me, myself, personally, I've seen all of this close up and I'm not fucking around. I'm staying home.
Military doesn't take advice from news media, period
