hate to say it but it has 100% death rate over 60 years old. 50-60 is the 2% rate. We will just have a younger planet.

As for the kraakkan bones.... we just found out they actually increase the death rate. We also found out Faucci had invested in a Kraakkan farm in Kentucky.

And soilent green is people

wait.... if you take it earlier and in bigger doses it seems to work. all other research is scrapped again. Kraakkan on.

there was an interview on the Maddow show with a dude that says it saved his life. Good enough for me.

That's an intentional misinterpretation of data. A 2% mortality rate is not the same as 2% of the population dying.

Look.... I'm all for killing off 2% of Florida. Especially if I can personally select them. But that simply was never stated by anyone of any repute.

The earliest estimation of very high death rate that I can find is of 2.2MM, predicted by a group out of London College and repeated by Trump himself as a boast of having saved 2.2 MM lives.

Well.... we're closing in on 5% of that goal with all these draconian, freedom destroying measures in place. Think about that for a minute.... with almost no one going anywhere, having any contact with anyone outside of their family... we still were able to achieve almost 5% of the most outrageous of the estimates, and we haven't finished yet.

Let's see what we can achieve by really opening this up!

I come to these boards for the laughs, not for my news.

It's just poor form to revert to nonsense in the midst of a discussion. We're not in the same room here, it takes a give and take.

I wish I could say I was surprised.

Well that’s kinda my point. We are opening up. So what do the models say we’re going to achieve? Florida is 6.44% of the population so am I going to get their fair percentage of the 2.2 million now that they’re opening? I’m not even taking into account that Florida has the largest percentage of people over 65 in the country and we know this virus likes to wack old people and Florida is Heaven’s waiting room.

With Florida opening up, what are the new COVID death numbers going to be so we can judge whether they should have stayed closed?

actually there is no rate. just a number. 2.2.M all over 60.

I doubt anyone with credibility is going to give you a hard number. Despite your wanting it.... despite your desire to legitimize facebook news posts.

It depends too much on how much voluntary social distancing continues to happen.

Missouri opened up almost two weeks ago, and my favorite restaurants still are not willing to open up their dining rooms. My neighbors are still mostly working from home.... and the post office everyone is wearing masks.... (but not Home Depot.... so who knows).

Now Wisconsin opened, and you can see images of a bar where everyone is shoulder to shoulder.

It's going to be a really fun ride.

Heck, I’m just trying to legitimize Cbid news posts. I’m looking for a hard number so I can quantify whether the stay at home crowd or the open up crowd got it right. It sounds like the best answer I can get is nobody knows. Well we’re just going to have to find out! At least we know the hard numbers of the economic damage.

May be I should shift money to Missouri or Wisconsin and not wait for Florida. The real trick is getting out in front of all the Wall Street REITs.

I don’t know. But I heard while folks under 60 can get the virus, and they will live, they will suffer from poor form and stuff.

There are no dark winters at altitude.
