B-Man Posted July 12, 2020 Posted July 12, 2020 Much ado is being made over President Trump wearing a mask while visiting wounded soldiers and veterans at Walter Reed hospital earlier today. It seems a little silly to build a media narrative around taking precautions in the #1 place you would take prudent precautions, but whatever. Meanwhile........................back at the thread. A CORONAVIRUS CHART THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA DOESN’T WANT YOU TO SEE. “Does Axios consider the United States to have lost the war on H1N1? I’m asking for a friend.” Read the whole thing.

shoshin Posted July 12, 2020 Posted July 12, 2020 FL 15,000 cases reported today. New record by a lot. Could easily be cracking 100K well before when Fauci predicted if TX and CA follow FL into numbers like that. I've got to think CA is destined to spike way higher since right now only SoCal is putting up big numbers. https://www.boston25news.com/news/national/florida-reports/YMEQ3LCIYKONVLQVHIV6ST42GE/
Chef Jim Posted July 12, 2020 Posted July 12, 2020 I wonder how many of those screaming for those to wear masks had unprotected sex during the height of the AIDS epidemic. ? 1

WTF does when it happened have anything to do with it? And nothing like this? Maybe but tell that to the gay community. I worked in restaurants in West Hollywood 35 years ago. They were crossing friends off their address books every day. It was a horrible way to go. Just pointing our the hypocrisy. And how many have died of AIDS in the US?

In 5 months, we're at 130K. Anyone can get Covid. People engaging in certain behaviors can get AIDS. AIDS for a long time was 100% fatal. Covid is not even close to that. I don't know what population of non-condom folks in the AIDS epidemic overlaps with mask-wearers. You can do a study I guess but I'm not sure what valuable point you think it would make.

Yeah, because treating the flu is just like treating covid in the hospital. Do people think before they write these stories? I guess the headline got its clickbait.

I worked with seniors the last 20 years of my career, and I can't tell you how many died of "the flu" It still fills a hospital bed................takes nursing treatment. The point of the article (beyond just reading the headline) is that hospitals CAN be strained by other things, and the "FLU" has certainly done that..........often.

People having sex in 1981 are pretty old today. And if we develop a vaccine for Covid the number of deaths here in the US may in fact pale in comparison to AIDS. I was just wondering aloud how many screaming for masks today couldn’t be bothered to put on a condom in the 80’s. I have no idea what you’re getting at with your last sentence other than you’re young.

I have a friend who works in ER. She dreads every flu season. If we’re not required to wear masks and social distance ever flu season this whole COVID thing has been a media fueled kabuki dance. 1 1

If we are still in masks and distancing when flu season 2020 comes around, I wonder whether it will be a lighter load. I’d say yes, probably.
