Those countries didn't mess around, knew what's at stake, and they're practically a flat-line on the charts. You are correct. Look at Singapore and other countries. They wear mask and practice social distancing all the time. And I would guess the fast food and food service protect themselves and the customer with the same precautions. This has never been discussed in the U.S. and needs to be addressed. Good or bad that's what the world will look like when this is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do some research and then think. Also, China isn't reporting real numbers now and have pulled back how much they're testing. I don't think the previous 2 months of data support that graphic. No hospitals collapsed. What collapsed was a hotel that was being used for quarantine purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super8 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Here's a news flash. Why were infected with corona virus people from China flying all over the world before countries locked them out? Italy, Japan and U.S. outbreaks happened because of this. If this were Americans that did this the out cry would be none stop. 3 minutes ago, Mokara said: No hospitals collapsed.

China has 1.386 billion people and they have 198,091 cases and 7,961 deaths. it took the U.S.3 months to get here. China also has 108,403 active cases and 7,020 of those cases are serious or critical. 94% of the cases are mild. Take the time to look at charts to see what numbers have increased, and what numbers from which countries have started to flatten out. Those numbers you are quoting are world wide, not for China.

Your post about who you like or hate doesn't matter anymore. It's not about hate, it's about wanting competent leadership during a global pandemic the likes of which most of us have never seen in our lifetimes. Our president is an idiot. If you can't get beyond your own politics and realize that then you're the one with the problem. It is literally, in the literal sense, impossible to deal with this in any meaningful way without addressing the idiot we have as a president. His incompetence has contributed to this mess here in the US, and he has been among the leading source of disinformation. His other awful qualities really aren't relevant (like the racism) but they certainly do not help.

The hoax part was the fear that the left media was spreading about not doing enough. The fear stirred up by the media was about how poorly and unprepared the GOP gov was. Fast forward less than a week and the GOP gov stepped up and locked everyone down. The seriousness this week is about the lock down and preventing the spread. The other worry is not knowing how long this will last. The word is from that orange guy is we will be this way until August. Not sure why you think either political side loves science more than the other. One side says climate change isn't that they say and the other side destroys unborn fetus or baby. You can take which side of science you like but you might want to think before you spin that science thing around. The CDC was unprepared for this and that tells you something. And that something was not under funding. 12 minutes ago, newfoundmass said: It's not about hate, it's about wanting competent leadership during a global pandemic the likes of which most of us have never seen in our lifetimes.

Yes, I agree that people were stirring up fear about how unprepared the GOP was because the POTUS was saying stuff that was stirring up fear about how unprepared the GOP was. 4 minutes ago, Super8 said: Not sure why you think either political side loves science more than the other.

"Not the time to talk politics" seems to happen often when the GOP is forced to pivot and adapt to reality. Anyway, I stand by my statement, even though I'm not practicing it at the moment, that hopefully the rhetoric will wind-down a bit and be tempered in the "new normal" in the aftermath of all this. newfoundmass 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super8 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I need to read back a few pages but did I miss the part about "which mask" were the ones that protected us the most? or what other countries are actually doing to stop the spread. I'm an American born and raised, I believe Jesus Christ died for our sins and I will vote for whoever I want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You left out this part: "One side says climate change isn't that they say and the other side destroys unborn fetus or baby." Science says a fetus is alive and one side tries to say it's not true.

Not you really can't get politics out of your head. I've been saying this since I posted on this thread. This is a pantomimic and not time for politics about which side you like or who you dislike. I's sad you just can't stop blaming the other side. That side is the side you didn't vote for and the side you hate. That has nothing to do with me.

I'm calling evangelicals evangelicals because evangelicals are the ones running the creation museum down the street with the TRUMP 2020 flag flying in front of it, and you asked me why I thought a certain political side held science in a lesser esteem, so I offered you an example of evangelicals, who overwhelmingly support the figurehead of the GOP, as not accepting scientific evidence because they run a creation museum down the street. And not that it matters much, but you should know my best firnd is an evangelical and we have these go-rounds about stuff all the time. Usually ends about the same as it's going here too. 17 minutes ago, Super8 said: This is a pantomimic and not time for politics about which side you like or who you dislike. Shall we set aside an appropriate time that you're more comfortable with? By all means, I don't want you to get upset trying to defend your opinions. Let's mark the calendar to pick up the debate. I'll bring the berets and white face paint. Although, to be honest, it's going to be hard to debate if all we can do is express ourselves visually. newfoundmass 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
