45,000 Americans dead in 7 weeks. Avg of nearly 6500 weekly, but just a flu, right ?

[Goat Milk]

People seem to have no idea that this is about to get way worse. Yeah, no shit it's small now, everyone staying the f at home. Use your brain morons. When the gates to this country reopen, it's gonna be a shit show.

Think man stronger than nature?

Lmfao. Imbeciles.

[Goat Milk]

The virus attacks folks that treat there bodies like a trash can (sugar sugar sugar) ....And sadly puts them in a box six feet under...
If your healthy with a healthy life style and get the virus its like a cold and goes away....again viruses live off sugar...
not one GOD DAMN DOCTOR... well tell you to stay off sugar.....clueless..... !!!!!!!!

Fruit could contain properties to fight viruses, yet are loaded with sugar. Tough to replicate the the unique polyphenols and shit that come from diff fruits.

Stockholm closing in on herd immunity. Segmenting the high risk and practicing social distancing.

It's exactly what most, if not all, countries will end up practicing.

[homie1975]

Not sure that wiping out a countries crippled geriatrics is a particularly good weapon if that's what you're trying to insinuate.

Economic destruction, some industries will never recover

[terpkeg]

2016/17 flu killed 80,000 Americans in 6.5 mos (oct 2 2016 - april 20 2017)

12,300 per month vs COVID-19 which currently average 25,700 in a month. DOUBLE.

but it's "just a flu" right ???

Can't trust either number. Plenty of clear evidence that most dead have other extreme comorbidity or were not even tested. With that said, obvious in NY and NJ unusually high number of admins with severe respiratory distress. Some very healthy people. Highly unusual and concerning. IMO economic, social, mental, physical concerns associated with quarantine more serious.

[vitterd]

Have to laugh at the people who kept comparing the numbers of past events using yearly results to this which is only a couple months in.

The stupidity of auto donks of the world is scary.

At this point the death numbers are being under reported. There was likely Covid deaths months ago

[mezmurized2]

and when it was all said and done, the conclusion was 575K deaths world wide.....
corona won't come close to that.....

But with 2009 H1N1 only 12,469 deaths confirmed in US (over a full year)

COVID-19 has already killed 46,784 Americans and still climbing at the rate of over 1500 per day
...in about 2 months...bottom line

[mezmurized2]

What the best site for updated VIRUS statistics on the death front, USA and WORLDWIDE

Thanks in advance

Lakerboy lists a good site, worldometers

But I prefer Johns Hopkins:

...and for seeing a cumulative day-by-day listing I use wikipedia:

America isn't closed.

[Rain Chains]

America isn't closed.

Ignoring the basis of a question like a true liberal.

Dems want those votes and are willing to pay people to stay at home to get them. All while their media sells doom and gloom.

Normal view: 50 to 85 more times people are infected. The death rate could be much much lower than 1% which is good news despite the tragedy of the situation.

Liberal view: More widespread than we thought. All doom and gloom.

[DrunkHorseplayer]

80% of the deaths are in nine different states; the other 41 states have about 10,000 deaths combined, an average of roughly 250 each and that doesn't take into account that most of the deceased had other health issues. Absolutely foolish to shut down the entire country; shut down the hotspots, let everyone else open.

I'm not a liberal. I judge every situation.

Also I repeat america is far from closed. I think the country should reopen some things. Lots of people are still working

Can't speak for "Democrats," because I'm a proud centrist (an independent)
You know....that part of America the Republicans MUST appeal to and get
in order to have a shot at holding power in the White House and down ballot.

IMO, it appears that a broad spectrum of Democrats (not all mind you) do
lean toward more Liberal-government interventions in a wide host of things
including the contentious issue of "Entitlements" and
in many cases the bureaucracy creates more problems and waste than necessary.
Dem governments overdo it in many cases, yes.
And it's costly.
That said,
now at age 65, I remember when the Republicans were supposed to be all about
"fiscal responsibility." They prided themselves in that! Heck, that is their main
argument against "Entitlements" !!!
WHERE, oh WHERE has "fiscal responsibility" gone the last TWO
Republican administrations ?!?!?!
I see it both ways. I try to be fair. Non-partisan.
I can and DO agree and disagree with both the left and the right.
Just because someone disagrees with your views does not make them
a member of the opposing party.


BUT,

when anyone pitches one into the dirt, I call: "Ball!"
- regardless what that pitcher's dugout screams at me.

thats the complete opposite of what sweden is doing right now
so maybe sweden and bernie arent the same

Hmmm...so how is that working out for Sweden, right now?
Remember, in the winter months, nordic countries don't get
a whole lot of incoming tourists from all around the globe,
therefore incoming virus carriers is vastly reduced compared
to say, New York city...
Anyway, for those who believe in the manner in which the
Democratic-Socialist government of SWEDEN is handling things,
here are some current figures on DEATHS /per million population.
One is free to review these stats at https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/map.html

2.6...Japan
4.7...S.Korea
13....Poland
32...Finland (neighbor to Sweden)
37...Norway (neighbor to Sweden)
69...Denmark (neighbor to Sweden)
59...Austria
63...Canada
68...Germany
154...USA

213...SWEDEN open for business

288...UK (Boris Johnson gov't admits they were too slow!)

55000 dead with no one stepping out of the house or social gatherings. As soon as they open malls, churches, concerts and sport arenas and ballparks it will spread everywhere.

Can’t stay locked away for years...they are no closer to a vaccine than they were 5 months ago. It just has to happen. Strong will survive/adapt and weak will have problems...theory been around around for 200 hundred years.

Actually the opposite is happening. Look at the major killing zones. Like in my state, killing zones are retirement homes and assisted living places. All of actual "targets" for this virus under one roof but they are told they are safe because they aren't outside. This "stay in place" isn't helping anyone that is in danger of this virus. One person that goes to work and has it then they all get it. In the end the whole "stay in place" bullshit only did one thing for these folks. It took away their ability to die with their families by their side. But thank God for "social distancing" so the small percentage of people that are in danger can't see their families as they slowly die in some hospital or assisted living place after getting it from a stranger working there. We should probably keep doing that, it makes complete sense while the rest of us, who have almost zero chance of any major complications, watch everything we worked for all our lives disappear. The plan couldn't be working any better.

So you the folks in retirement homes and assisted living facilities would be safer if they didn't put restrictions in place and they let visitors in as before?

[RudyRuetigger]

turns out it isnt even as bad as the flu

China's been open for a month now. Virus is dead there. Same thing will happen in the US. Opening up everything won't cause anything different to happen. The virus will gradually wind down.

You know how long China closed their version of Las Vegas? 2 weeks.

Macau was closed for 2 weeks.
That's it.

Assinine we are closed for longer than China is. This virus kills old people with existing conditions. It's not worth staying in your homes for. It just isnt. If you are old and have a bad condition, stay home. Don't let anyone come into contact with you from the outside world.

I will go on with my life. As will 99.999% of the rest of America that has no threat of dying from this even if we get it.

Death numbers are under reported. Those not going to hospitals and dying in their homes are not being counted as virus deaths.
