You are aware that the US population was WAY WAY LOWER in 1918 right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes....but I’m not the one who made the comparison based solely on the death count. I think that was you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No we have no way to stop a spread while we work on a vaccine. Mother Nature's a B word and human's are arrogant. And developing a vaccine is a medical advancement? BTW very cool site I just found.

Sure I can. If Washington hadn’t had his troops vaccinated for smallpox we’d still be ruled by a queen. So what? Vaccines have saved probably billions of people from disease and death. They will save folks from Covid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm officially in everything is complete bull ***t mode and if you aren't to I feel sorry for you. People are dying. Two vaccines are on "pause." The other 2 are EAU only. And, we still are being treated like we all have the plague. But that 4th of July BBQ with 5 or 6 of your friends.....we super swear it's in reach man. C'mon. Here's the deal. The threat of "needing" the vaccine to live our lives is in and of itself a failure of the human race and the result of the biggest breaches of trust in human history with its government. Variants!!! The variants are coming! You're already going to need a third shot in 6-12 months of the 2 we think work. You clearly didn't read President Cardboard Cut Outs update last week. YEARS. Because you're cowards. Edited April 17, 2021 by Big Blitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
