Coronavirus does pose a threat but not to the degree we are being led to believe. Look how much the numbers and the data have been manipulated and recategorized. It’s even right on the CDC’s own website. Doctors are even coming forward with it. How can you truly have faith in government at this point? They don’t tell the truth and the writing is clearly written on the wall. The problem overall has been sensationalized with the intent to ramp up public fear and is being used as a tool for further overreach and control over people. The media is complicit in this as well. There are several newsworthy topics that are not being discussed right now and given ample air time. Everything is coronavirus. (Although I haven’t watched the news the last 2 days but I doubt things have changed.)
How about the FBI scandal with Michael Flynn?
How about the murder of Ahmaud Arbery?
How about the Fed’s latest rounds of quantitative easing and expansion of the money supply?
These are the things people should be talking about right now not coronavirus bullschit. In the pandemic of 1957, it was managed by doctors. The coronavirus pandemic is being managed by politicians. No crisis go unwasted... and this one is certainly being milked and then some.

I’m not worried about money... but over 31 million people nationwide are. That is how many people have applied for unemployment in the last 6 weeks Abe side they are out of a job. We have 71,000 deaths from covid.
31,000,000 divided by 71,000 = 436.6
The number of people who are out of work because one old person has died.
At the expense of sounding insensitive... maybe this has gone a bit too far. The elderly should properly social distanced and be mindful as they normally would, particularly those with underlying health conditions. This has crippled the economy.
Maybe you’re the fukkkkin idiot. You continue to sound like one and your shallow views/simple statements demonstrate an inability to look at situations through a larger lens or think critically.

Coronavirus does pose a threat but not to the degree we are being led to believe. Any proof, Dr. Streamer? I didn't think so. The best scientists are still grappling with the extent of the threat. But you know it all? The problem overall has been sensationalized with the intent to ramp up public fear and is being used as a tool for further overreach and control over people.
So it's a worldwide conspiracy to control people? Don't hang out with Rich anymore. There are several newsworthy topics that are not being discussed right now and given ample air time.
This much is true. As usual. These are the things people should be talking about right now not coronavirus bullschit.
coronavirus bullschit? Ok, if it's bullshitt, you go first.

Best scientists? You mean Fauci crew? The CDC? WHO? Yeah... the best scientists alright. But you are correct in the sense that we still don’t know a lot about this. Their worst case projection to this point still doesn’t warrant the response we’ve had forced upon us.
I don’t hang out with Rich. Too crazy for me. At the root of the pandemic is control by politicians. You mean to tell me you believe they honestly have YOUR best interests in mind? Of course it’s about controlling the people.
Don’t be stupid... bro...

I was told on here that foreheads were going to be marked, mass burials, Century link and Safeco turned to medical institutions, tens of millions would die, and Evo would still be unemployed......not too bad, this is where I come for political, fishing, and extraterrestrial news

You mean to tell me you believe they honestly have YOUR best interests in mind? Of course it’s about controlling the people. A few of them do want to do what's best for the people. Others, like trump, only care about themselves. Your belief that it's about controlling people is just conspiracy theory foolishness. You sure you want to belong in the conspiracy theory whackadoodle club?

It's hard to know what to think when Streamer, Bent Metal, fish4brains, and Dan S. are all on a similar and correct path, but the world hasn't totally inverted as Illahee still does not have a clue.

There was a psychological study just done on this exact subject.
They tried to analyze why some people downplayed the virus, and others went along with the recommended stay at home policy.
It came down to government power. Those afraid of the government gaining power, thinking it was just a power grab, downplayed and dismissed the risk.
This by far was the smaller segment, maybe 20%, 65+% agreed that staying home long enough to avoid an uncontrolled outbreak was a better idea.
Facts had no affect on changing the conspiracy theorists minds, because in their group mindset it was all a government power grab.
Both sides agreed the virus was bad, but to very different degrees.
This affected many other decisions, anything that was perceived as potentially giving more power to the government was either called a hoax, or an exaggerated risk.
Again, facts didn't change the mindset.

Since most of this is new (well sort of), there's no way to know exactly how this will play out, only that people will continue to die at varying rates.
I'm at an age where the consequences of being lax are serious, so I'll let some other people test the waters for me.

For me it boils down to assessing level of risk. I don’t go to parties or events and I am cautious and mindful to keep space from others, particularly the elderly. I avoid crowds and shop at the end of the day with as few people around as possible. I conduct myself according to the level of risk present.
If you present me with facts from peer reviewed medical journals I would be inclined to listen with an open mind. A lot of the research isn’t there or doesn’t actually support some of the measures that are in place. Thankfully I have a lot of education in public health so I am familiar to some degree what can be a helpful measure and what is clearly a power grab or fear-mongering. If you consider that downplaying the situation then you can believe that. Perhaps I don’t fit into the two major categories of the discussed study... perhaps the group that tries to look at the situation objectively and conducts themselves accordingly.

Have you been here long? Go back in history and read my posts. I've never had any credibility here,except the few times I choose to get real,like 3. Now if we met in real life(this ain't it here),different story. But you seem kinda daft.
