Call me stupid but I still don't understand why the COVID-19 is so dangerous
Where is the information? WHY IS THIS SO DIFFERENT FROM THE SEASONAL FLU? Someone please put the truth out there for Americans to know WTF WE ARE DEALING WITH.

1. COVID-19 is easier to catch, and it kills more who catch it.

3. Hysteria for sure

But it’s the first time one of these newer virus’s have made it here. China is already recovering manufacturing capacity.

6. It does permanent lung damage if it doesn't kill you-high infection rates

And a penchant for the elder.

Add to the fact we have a narcissist in charge who only cares about himself & not "We the People" or the constitution.
It is time to panic or at least defend yourself as best possible. It is barely begun we are at a 2 it will be a 10 in a month.

4. If one hundred of your friends get the seasonal flu

there’s a very good chance none of them will die.

If one hundred of your friends get COVID-19 there’s a very good chance AT LEAST three of them will die.

Does that help?

 :whatever:  That's not exactly how that works...

9. And if any of your friends are 70 or older, and have a preexisting medical condition

Medical condition like heart disease, diabetes or kidney problems, they will probably die if they catch it


And there is no vaccine.

7. It has a slightly higher mortality rate than the flu and is very contagious.

The scariest thing I've heard is that the number of infected people doubles every 24 hours.

After 10 days 1 person becomes 512 people.

After 20 days 512 people becomes half a million people.

With that many infected people, a lot more people will die.

If you ever wondered why liberals want a nanny state, look no further than their reaction to this and their inability to know how to care for themselves.

Worse yet, it shows the limitations of such a nanny state; the government cannot, for instance, make people practice good hygiene at all times.

The free market and "Big Pharma" are very well equipped to deal with this.  If the government didn't act like a grabby drunk at closing time attaching themselves to everything.

The media is punching it up to be Trump's Katrina.  Simple.  On the magazine stand at the store today, there were articles saying "I survived and beat the Coronavirus!"  I leafed through the article.  Guy had a bad cold with fever, which broke in a day, and now everything's great.  For God's sake. These stupid DUmmies acting like this is an automatic death sentence.  That was the sheep's talking point orders.

The narrative is not going to go the way they think. This is simply more hoax material and will backfire.

Blue states' inclination would be to exaggerate for political reasons, while China's bureaucrats inclination would be to under-report for CYA purposes. The intents counter-balance, but not the numbers, since there are far fewer cases in the US (and probably will remain far fewer, due largely to the Trump Administration's quick travel warnings and imposition of travel restrictions).
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

I have been looking for the rank (very rank) and file of the great unwashed to realize that their strong holds will probably be hardest hit.  Population density is great for spreading viruses as far a layman like myself can tell.  Big city hospitals will probably be more stressed than farmer John's doctor's co-operative clinic in fly over country.  Well heck ya, they might not have all them modern luxuries but the will probably have lighter viral loads too. 

Imagine being quarantined in a fetid swamp like Baltimore or San Francisco or New York City if you think a cruise ship is bad. 

I also wonder how all them truckers are going to work from home.   :werd:
