COVID CRAP - this has to stop soon , life has gone on after every epidemic , every disease , but never EVER has such a thing been politicized to the extent that common folks could not get adequate medical attention before , this has gone far enough , when everyday patients [ yes i know a whole bunch personally] cannot get their medical attention for real medical concerns the system is broken - politicized - out of touch with reality ,

reality is -a lot of us are going to get sick , its life , it happens every year , its going to happen in the future , facts  IS some folks are going to get this and die , but the whole world cannot stop , cancer patients cannot go without treatment , sick folks cannot be told on video/phone med consults they dont matter , they do ,

and the rest of us need to pick our lazy a$$es off that same couch and say enough - get out and continue living - im not going down this way ,

You may not go down this way if you stay safe, but last I heard over 150,000 of your fellow citizen have parished over this.
And since the states of emergancy has been relaxed, some states have seen a 25% increase in cases.
Same thing will happen here in Canada!, because in gereral people are stupid.
Lead from the front; eliminate all obstacles...

Sad reality is that the toll Stateside is believed to be larger than that, because of the number of people that don't have access to healthcare..so they go unreported.
The so - called 2nd wave is purported to be as bad or worse. Hopefully, we will have learned to grapple with it more efficiently by that time.

Trouble is, it seems a fact that while this virus thing is on, nearly all deaths are put down to it, whether they are actually from this or not.  So Much media hype and they should be held accountable.
 
I know a lady bitten by a black widow spider in Oklahoma.
Was tested 3 times for this virus and came up blank. 
By the time someone figured it Might be something else, she had pretty severe lung damage and now can't travel far for a year at any rate!
The world can't stop for a virus, as you say A-Square.
I truly think the world has gone mad, with all this paranoia.

Probably impossible to determine how many have died as a result of the shut down. And how many more will.   Many deaths from COVID19 were in assisted living centers for seniors, many with existing medical conditions.   That’s who the government should have isolated and protected, these people were most at risk.  Instead, they mandated the acceptance of individuals who had the virus to these centers instead.  

Turns out that asymptomatic people don’t transmit this virus easily.  The ones with symptoms do.  Duh! Keep the sick isolated from the rest of us.  

GA was one of the first states to open, there is no noticeable change in daily case rates, and deaths continue to decline.  Country wide, the daily deaths continue to drop, as of today, 116K.

In the western world, over the last few decades when left leaning governments governments were at the height of power (then trend in Europe is changing to slightly more conservative), they only catered to the lazy, weak, and loudest whiners. This created what I call "Nanny States", where people expect the government to hold their hand and want everything without providing any worthwhile contribution to said country. Governments were only too happy to do it, as it meant more control over the citizens. Problem was, and is, it costs a lot of money. Countries found they needed to borrow from other countries that don't have Nanny States, in fact, the exact opposite. China. There is a comic from Australia that imitates a rogue that used to live there, Chopper Read. One of Choppers favourite lines was, "Australia, harden the f@&k up!". Wise words...

yes - i get this it has always been so - it will be so in the future too , im not making light of its affects or ignoring them , im simply saying we had the same when obama was president multiple times and no one made this big deal of it , wear your mask if it works for you , seclude yourself if you feel it needed , leave the rest of us alone , 

"...Trouble is, it seems a fact that while this virus thing is on, nearly all deaths are put down to it, whether they are actually from this or not.  So Much media hype and they should be held accountable..."

this is what is happening , and the rampant testing is showing the extent we already knew would happen , the testing does not prevent or cure - only feeds the numbers for the media and politicians , stuff it , this is no different than any other , wonder why there has been no deaths from cancer lately ? its been called covid ...this is BS , go ahead and find a vaxine  - go ahead and find a cure if that can be done , but for cripes sake dont ignore every other deadly disease in the meantime , 

ill post a bunch if i get it and have to stay home for a month to get well ,
