Uhh? What....

If it isn’t in your system you can’t spread it..... also, they are saying antibodies last 3 months or more.... so....

WTH are you talking about? How can you spread something you don’t have.....

I think the line from the media he was looking for was “we don’t know if you can get this again”. I even tried to help him out, but he still went down that crazy path

from the Association of American Medical Colleges :

" If the nation does not change its course - and soon- deaths in the United States could well be into the multiple of hundreds of thousands."

And FYI....Members of the AAMC include all 155 medical schools in the US, all 17 medical schools in Canada and more than 400 teaching hospitals.

Yeah...right...I remember back in March they said we’d have 1,000,000 Covid deaths..

Would like to see the vitals of the people that died from COVID. I bet they are overweight. If you haven’t contemplated the possible connection between the USA having the most positive cases/deaths and also the most overweight/unhealthy people you haven’t really explored anything and should probably sit this one out until you have.

For the mask Nazis- you may ultimately be right about masks. But if your first instinct is to infringe on our way of life and destitute our economy BEFORE FIRST ASKING IF THERE IS ANOTHER WAY...you’re doing it wrong.

We are back to back World War champs for a reason- we question authority. All the time.

Being amazing isn’t an accident.

To wit- I’ve been in Ecuador since early June and I’ve seen less than 5 people in 2 months without a mask...in a city of 3 million people. It’s beyond incredible. In a sad way.

They aren’t questioning anything.

Only one of these is a joke- USA space program. Ecuadorean space program. This also is not an accident.

Well that was already answered by individuals doing antibody studies. While you can get covid-19 again it is highly less likely that you do since your body would have already built up natural immunity no matter the strain.

Also, per antibody research they believe antibodies lasts anywhere from 3 - 6 months. If there is a Covid vaccine they are talking about needing roughly 2 shots a year.

If hospitals were reimbursed for flu ICU patients by the government we’d see them loaded up.

Ayyy let's see how many conspiracy theories we can fit in one thread. If the flu ICU patients are so large in number that the hospitals have to suspend all other elective procedures and bleed revenue for 3 months, they'd get paid a little extra for those patients too

Uh, yes, accusing hospitals of dramatically overinflating numbers with zero evidence is a conspiracy theory

Once again, it’s called moral hazard. Moral hazard is real. Economics is not a conspiracy theory. If you told hospitals you’d pay 100% cost on any disease x you’d see an uptick in diagnoses for x.

So your 150,000 deaths (so far... during warm months and at times ) become 130,000. Is that supposed to change the conversation?

Guy didn't say "an uptick," he said ICUs would be full of flu patients and implied that it would be to the same degree as with COVID, which is absolute trash (and again, very obviously, a conspiracy theory)

I agree. They’ll test enough students to make it spike. A friend of mine works for private prison company. He says the health dept is constantly there testing.

I’m not trying to be a smart ass but can’t judge your tone. Are you saying that the test will cause a spike, not the actual positive test?
Seriously, I can’t interpret this. Sorry.

Truth is I doubt they’d been more than 100k deaths if certain governors hadn’t used this for political purposes. How else you explain REQUIRING nursing homes to accept Covid positive patients?

Idk who said it, but so far, 99% of these “expert” opinions have been way off..

That 99% that I referenced my be off too...I don’t have a reference for that either, but it’s been the majority of them.

I heard of that happening. I know New York did it very early before much was known. That ended up to be pretty stupid for sure. But I’ve not heard that was rampant practice around the country.

Do you think a full 50k deaths happened in nursing homes, or that the rest are just victims of other ambiguous government forces?

It’s funny how Cuomo handled this perfectly, with by far the most number of deaths....also, the predictions were 1,000,000 deaths this year, were at 150,000, and Trump has handled this horribly..

Can’t make this stuff up....#liberallogic

Remember when the joke was, “if trump found a cure for cancer, the left would still criticize him”...that’s basically what we’re seeing with Hydroxicloroquine.

Trump didn't find hydroxy and it's not a cure. NYC was giving it to every patient when they had 800 deaths per day in April
