Then the overwhelming majority of Americans are scared little sheep who have been driven into panic by the media intentionally over a disease that has yet to kill as many people this year as the flu.
Anyone who is so afraid of the Boogyman for no good reason should just buy a drum of Lysol, tape/plastic their doors and windows and plan to stay home for the duration.
Wait till the free money runs out and check those polls again. 
Most polls only value would be as toilet paper or bird cage liner.
No, it would NOT help ANYTHING. The so-called “Non-essential” jobs & services ARE essential. If they don’t come back we will all starve. I consider that essential!
Thanks for proving my assertions.
It’s already killed >60,000 in less than two months…right end of the top band of flu deaths per year…60,000 flu deaths would constitute a bad year…and those deaths are spread out over 6 months, not 2.
And this is WITH lockdowns and social distancing…and given the number of excess deaths in 2020 compared to the five year average is above this 60,000 figure…we are likely undercounting the number of COVID deaths.
And this is WITH two week long hospital stays being the norm for serious patients, compare to 5-7 for the flu.
And this is with all sorts of cardiovascular problems and other organ problems, and blisters feet and dangerous swelling in some kids and strokes happening in younger healthier people…all happening to a greater degree than happen for flu patients in a typical year.
But other than all that. Yeah…it’s just like the flu.
Not a one of your assertions was proved true.
You are simply holding fast to your belief without evidence…not even attempting to engage with those who disagree with you.
So much contempt for real Americans.
Give me a hard date when the rate of infections will decline for fourteen consecutive days.
Unfortunately, real life requires dealing with ambiguity.
Actually I didn’t prove anything of what you asserted. For one thing, I was talking about using the scientific method to make judgments and the scientific method advances through disproof, not proof. If you are going to judge what is or is not science, your credibility might depend on demonstrating an understanding of that fundamental.
You just made up the last bits.
What?
The way to test a hypothesis is to try and prove it FALSE?
Say it isn’t so!
Imagine if people did that instead of just uncritically accepted things from pundits or newspapers or other media because what was being said tickled their ears!
The flu is a disease we’re prepared to fight supposedly but when the numbers are tallied we’ll have lost upwards of 140,000-160,000 to it in two years.
The numbers or CCPV? We’ll finish probably around the same 80k or less.
The Flu kills far more young and healthy people than CCPV.
How many children died from flu during the 2017-2018 season?
As of April 19, 2019, a total of 186 pediatric deaths had been reported to CDC during the 2017-2018 season. This number exceeds the previously highest number of flu-associated deaths in children reported during a regular flu season (171 during the 2012-2013 season). Approximately 80% of these deaths occurred in children who had not received a flu vaccination this season. For the most recent data and more information visit FluView: Influenza-Associated Pediatric Mortality.
Since flu-associated deaths in children became a nationally notifiable condition in 2004, the total number of flu-associated deaths among children during one season has ranged from 37 (during the 2011-2012 season) to 186 (during the 2017-18 season, as of April 19, 2019); this excludes the 2009 pandemic, when 358 pediatric deaths from April 15, 2009 through October 2, 2010 were reported to CDC.
How many people were hospitalized from flu during the 2017-2018 season?
From October 1, 2017 through April 28, 2018, 30,453 laboratory-confirmed influenza-related hospitalizations were reported through the Influenza Hospitalization Surveillance Network (FluSurv-NET), which covers approximately 9% of the U.S. population. People 65 years and older accounted for approximately 58% of reported influenza-associated hospitalizations. Overall hospitalization rates (all ages) during 2017-2018 were the highest ever recorded in this surveillance system, breaking the previously recorded high recorded during 2014-2015; a high severity H3N2-predominant season when CDC estimates that hospitalizations captured through FluSurv-NET translated into a total of 710,000 flu hospitalizations that seasons. (For more information on these estimates, see CDC’s Disease Burden of Influenza page.) Estimates on the total number of flu-related hospitalizations during 2017-2018 will be available in fall 2018.
Yet we have never blown the damned economy up over “The Flu” even though in 1918 it killed 665,000 of 105,000,000 Americans.
Even better, imagine if people understood how science works and so could evaluate scientific knowledge with some degree of understanding!
You mean it doesn’t work like this?
“I was really sick. I took hydrochloroquine. I felt completely fine the next day. Therefore yay! Hydrochloroquine works!”
Post hoc ergo proper hoc isn’t a fallacy?
One person with a a miraculous claim is not a credible proof. Sorry.
Well, if you can’t believe the Birchers and this guy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiva_Ayyadurai, who can you believe, right?
if you get it, don’t take it. I hope you don’t die. If I get it, don’t try to stop me from taking it. Are we good?
“Titer Testing” “Viral Load Testing”.
So much for that self declared “Insider Industry Knowledge and Expertise”.
Stick to what you know, this ain’t it.
What is it you supposedly do “in the Industry” again? A straight answer would be appreciated.
One person?
When you have to resort to such patently false statements to make your argument it’s obvious you have no argument to make.
98.7% survival rate, contemporaneous immediate viral load cascading reductions immediately upon treatment.
We’re good as long as you keep omitting all the “Liberals are blocking the miracle cure from reaching everyone” rhetoric.
