Did the media take the bait? Has the news of Trumps demise been greatly exaggerated?

Who gets the last word on COVID in the highly charged political context?

What if Trump walks out of WR w double thumbs up. Has an immediate rally w bulging attendance pumping his fist in the air saying he beat COVID just like 99.99% of U.S. population?

Have you ever seen holy water sprinkled on a demon? :D
 
But, he should be removed from office. /sarc

LOL. Flu patients don’t take Dexamethasone, and remdesvir, and an un-approved monoclonal antibody treatment, but okay. I’m guessing since you think this is no big deal that you are volunteering in hospitals to help treat patients, and at said hospital, you don’t need to wear masks, right? 210,00 people have died, and many died alone in a hospital on a ventilator, never getting to see their family, never getting to hold a service afterwards. trump repeatedly fails to mention these people or offer condolences. For all you know, someone on this site has had it happen to them, but you guys get on here and call it the flu. Immoral. Look in the mirror.

Its all part of his genius master plan. Pretend to have the Dem's China Virus, then bait the media into believing he had it, then come out with his super cape on and be the war hero he has always wanted to be. Its brilliant.

Majority of each electoral college's voters in the upcoming election?

Of course he will. We will wait and see what he says about the experience. He obviously has to say that he was not concerned and it was just like the flu. But does that make him look like a wimp, having to be airlifted to hospital and getting super treatment, for just a flu? If it was nothing, why would that be necessary? Why is everyone now wearing masks and hazmat gear around him? Its just a flu. Whether the American people buy the spin - Well, we'll just have to see what happens....

If Trump loses this election, Pence will get right on that.
 
We have been sold a line of BS about this disease. Remember when WHO said 3.4% of people were dying, that means millions and millions. This version of respiratory a disease has not been as bad as the worst ones. Yet we have done unprecedented things to our world and our economy.

It is a respiratory disease, it is going to spread, and we are very lucky it’s no worse than it is.

Cry me a river. Could have been millions that died had the country not locked China and EU from entering while Pelosi went to Chinatown and Biden labeled Trump xenophobic.
More people die every year of heart disease and cancer and let’s not mention the killing of unborn and newly born babies.

Cry ahead.
 
We did not lockdown China, we continued to allow over 44k people in, no contact tracing. Had we had competent leadership, or like, any leadership, we might be like Norway (51 deaths per million), Finland (63), or Germany (115) instead we are at 640 deaths per million residents. The local mask mandates and social distancing across the country are the only thing keeping the virus in check, but, hey, you guys know more about science than anyone else! Abortion: If you don’t want an abortion, don’t have one. If my daughter gets raped, or her life is in danger, or the fetus is not viable, you can bet your ass in consultation with her doctor and her approval, she will get an abortion. It’s definitely none of your business, and most certainly none of the government’s business. Should be between a doctor and the patient.

Could be millions? So the virus is so deadly it would kill millions of people, or is it the flu? Pick one stable genius...

LOL. Here is the google link, from trump’s own CDC, flu deaths between, for AN ENTIRE YEAR, 21k and 61k, but you do you! You so mart!
We are at 210k, for 6 months! Just the flu, but I need a medivac flight to WR, 12 doctors, and DexaMeth, And Regeneron, and monoclonal antibodies, and oxygen.. And Chris Christie checks into the hospital as a precaution, WTF? Anybody else shows up at the ER and you are sent home unless you need a vent.

lets not forget the annual flu case and death numbers were always related to the fact we do not took any action to contain it - no masks , social distancing , lockdowns etc during the flu season.

now guess the numbers of annual covid deaths approaching it the same way...
 
Objective #s are the only way to put Covid-19 into perspective. There is much talk on all sides, and what accounts for facts today are later supplanted by other facts.

According to the CDC, Asian Flu 1957 killed ~116,000 in the USA at a time the population was 178 million. Today's population is nearly 2x of 1957, at 331 million. Covid-19 has killed ~220,000 by current reports.

If we take that the population is 85% higher today (a low #?), then increasing 220,000 by 85% is 407,000.

So it seems Covid-19 has yet to equal a flu that happened in the late 50's. And, one that the economy was not destroyed to combat. What is wrong with people these days?

I think the right way is this, X/331,000,000 : 116,000/178,000,000

So the annual flu vaccine has no part in your calculation? :rolleyes:
