And I only drink Diet soda (diabetic).

After passing a kidney stone, my urologist said to give up my beloved Diet Coke if I wanted to lower the risk of another one.

I’ve learn long time ago no posting until after my second cup.

Sounds like Sneaky was right.

Everyone gets it.

Like the flu vaccine? The one we still have 19 million exposures a year for? 600,000 hospitalizations? 50,000 deaths?

This is not the flu. 10-20x mortality rate and a much higher transmissible rate.

That’s the theory.

@JayJay

And if we can string it along in a dance phase until a vaccine comes along, why not do it?

Can we?

So. it’s time to get another 5 to 10 percent infected. We may already have about 5/6 maybe 7 percent with anti-bodies now. We need about 70 percent for herd immunity.

FoxNews is basically promoting when and where these protests are gonna happen. It’s as if they are trying to kill off their own audience.

For the life of me and without my trademark snark, I cannot understand why baby boomers are out there risking death to own the libs.

What. You mean they are reporting news. Shocking!

Owning Libs is the number one goal in Conworld…

Sounds more like making news…

I don’t want anyone to die to make a stupid political point.

The interesting thing is the stereotypes that were busted by this. Turns out coastal elite liberals are surprisingly okay without their avocado toast and organic fair trade cafe con leches. Turns out conservatives, after ten years of bragging how they can fight a civil war and/or survive the apocalypse, can’t deal with less than a month of mild inconvenience and a fat unemployment check to sit on their ass at home.

Anti-vaxxers, MLM “make money from home!” types and essential oil mommy group ladies have also shut the ■■■■ up real quick.

@JimmyC

Wait until we are sure the number of new cases is actually decreasing?

Cases or exposed?

Don’t worry. It’s happening. Cases are spiking in the states with no or little restrictions.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Trump is absolutely correct ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

He said the Governor was threatening the 2nd A. What did Northam do?

Did it? Strange. Did individuals shut down the economy? Did individuals decide for themselves they couldn’t plant gardens?

I don’t understand your post.

I’m commenting on the fact that conservatives can’t stand the fact that they are being asked to sacrifice for the greater good. They are marching with their trump signs because they no longer want to be inconvenienced.

Broad brush obviously.

The reason Italy had such a high mortality rate is because their system was overwhelmed. We want to avoid that.

Is it? You might want to do a little research on that.

So we’re going to protect the healthcare system for years?

How does 19 million a year not overwhelm the hospital system?

19 million a year what?
