Wrong as usual:
Most coronavirus cases in New York City can be traced back to Europe, not Asia, research shows

Did the virus originate in Europe?

Former Coronavirus Skeptic Warns Others To Take Pandemic Seriously After Infection

"Brian Lee Hitchens said he used to believe COVID-19 was a “fake crisis.” Now he’s imploring people to listen to the experts."

Just looking at the guy from pictures I would say his weight is playing a huge factor in his ability to recover quickly. Not saying the virus is a hoax but this guy is fighting an uphill battle already without any illness

"We must ask ourselves: What would make leaders gamble with human life this way? The answer is twofold: fear and acquiescence—both of which, when left unchecked, lead down a path to moral damnation. "

Given that 40% of American's are considered obese, this guy isn't an outlier.

The only place I can find any firsthand acknowledgement that this was classroom material is a tweet from a lady in England who said it was used in a powerpoint for her daughter's class. Is it actually being used here in the US?

I looked also. Could find nothing on it.
I think we need to worry more about the propaganda we consume outside of school and less about what is being taught by professional educators.

 

[luthervol]

Fake.
Did not happen.
Right-wing propaganda.

 

[clarksvol00]

Sure that looks legit. I'm sure a ton of kids saw that in school yesterday. I mean schools are packed right now.

It's not even from the US. It's supposedly from a school in England, but the guy that sent it out conveniently left that out of his original tweet.

Davidson County - 40 deaths / 694,144 people = 5.76 deaths/ 100 k pop (pop density = 1,326 /sq mi)
Shelby County - 81 deaths / 937,166 people = 8.64 deaths/ 100 k pop (pop density = 1,194 / sq mi)
Knox County - 5 deaths / 470,313 people = 1.06 deaths/ 100 k pop (pop density = 822 / sq mi)
Stockholm County - 1,463 deaths / 2,344,000 people = 62.4 deaths/ 100 k pop (pop density = 945 / sq mi)

So, the per capita death rate is about 8-60x higher in Stockholm County vs. some of Tennessee's most populous counties, which are somewhat similar in population density. I think roughly 10x is a pretty good way to think of it rather than the 60x because Knox County has just struck me as remarkable on how low the death count is there during this.

That is interesting. I compared Sweden vs the US and the death rate was higher there as well. Basically, if we had Sweden's death rate we would have about 115K deaths right now. That's not taking into account population density but I was just curious how Sweden compared to the US. Rounding to the nearest whole, we would have 26 deaths per 100K while Sweden has 35 deaths per 100K.

Those who can manage and lead v those who need a bailout?

I'd believe it. MA and MI are seeing 60-70% of their deaths in these facilties. Last I saw NY was in the 20s. Doesnt seem correct.

Yeah, I was posting about this over the weekend. From the data, NY did better than these states - but it wouldn't be obvious why. However, we should also learn how these other states are counting there nursing home deaths.

I'm not sure what to make of this. Pretty much any city of any size in TX has closed all of those.

No, he is wrong and your logic is missing an essential element. The people who have the Coronavirus but are asymptomatic can pass on the virus to other people, who are members of a more at risk population of becoming seriously ill. A key component in the fight against this virus is isolating the asymptomatic people from people who are more at risk of becoming seriously ill with the Coronavirus. An asymptomatic person wouldn't know to do that, without this testing.

Disregard my earlier post where I assumed you knew what he meant. Nevermind.

This graphic is inaccurate. The Morality Rate listed in CA is too high.

Ironic quote is extremely ironic.

I for one am personally glad states are reopening. Considering that most of the states that have reopened are red states, we certainly can’t have free loaders living on the government dole during a crisis. They need to get their asses back to work to fatten the wallets of our corporate overlords. We don’t actually give a crap about you, we just want you to make us money.

This was always going to be the left's strategy "see if we didn't suspend your constitutional rights you all would have died"

15 days to flatten the curve right? How long ago was that?

Please, you all love this. You all enjoy the power by dictator wanna be's like Newsome. Even better than that the economic collapse is a liberals dream scenario

First it was we need to flatten the curve.

Then it was we need to get testing numbers up.

Now it’s we need a vaccine.

Next? Probably we need to wait and see if the vaccine is effective next year.

This has to stop. Burócratas love to control the people.

Exactly right. You know they get off using their new power

Governments gamble with human life every damn day. Just distribute the information and let people decide.
