I guess so Warren, but does anyone find it shocking that the Director of the Center for DISEASE CONTROL would make statements that lean towards disease control! I don’t. On the contrary, I’ve been more upset at Fauchi’s late February comments that ‘all is well’. Again....why is this news worthy?

It's newsworthy because there is so little talk about it. It's been clear that this first 70-100,000 deaths and hospital overrun is just an initial small wave (small because it started at zero cases, small because we shut down, and small probably because the south already had some warm weather coming to the rescue), so it's worth understanding what is coming in the fall lineup. Barring treatment leaps and big changes to the way we act, it ain't gonna be pretty. Edited April 22, 2020 by shoshin

Of course this is what is going to happen barring treatment breakthroughs. It's not even that controversial. We will start in the fall with thousands of cases still floating around spread across lots of geographies, instead of just a few located in few places.

I, on the other hand, liken his comments to the fire department telling people to clear brush from around their property in preparation for the upcoming fire season. Or for those in the east coast, to winterize your house. I think the man is just doing his job. Again, where’s the big story? Where’s the controversy? Just sounds like good advise to me. 1

Magox Posted April 22, 2020 Posted April 22, 2020 Sweden appears to be heading towards herd immunity. Quote A new coronavirus test of blood taken from blood donors in Stockholm shows that at least 11 out of 100 had developed antibodies, with the real figure believed to be higher. The research, which is still at an early stage, is being carried out by the Karolinska Institute and Karolinska University Hospital, the local media reported. The test is only 70-80% sensitive; according to the researchers there will be no false positives, but there may be false negatives, that is people who test negative despite having had the coronavirus. "You cannot draw conclusions about the exact percentages, but we know that those 11% have had (the coronavirus). It is not enough for a research report, but too important to keep under wraps," clinical microbiologist Jan Albert told broadcaster SVT. The test is set to be rolled out to more people on Tuesday. They aren't there yet and there would still need to be lots more infections for that to happen but as of right now their medical systems have not been overrun so that each patient can't get the care they need, at least from the reports I have read. The new cases are beginning to flatten but the deaths are beginning to go up, as the deaths are a lagging indicator. So I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to tighten up even more if the pressure mounts. 1

No the point is, when you compare someone violating social distancing to what the Nazis did to the Jews, you are insulting the memories of the victims that were singled out, tortured, terrorized, and murdered under that brutal regime. Do us a favor, why don't you contact a holocaust survivor and ask him / her if they feel the same way when they see someone violating social distancing as they did when they saw a Nazi..... If you find one that agrees with you I will apologize. Until then, why don't you just STFU about a topic of which you clearly are ignorant Edited April 22, 2020 by billsfan1959 1

So you don't even see the irony that you would be reporting the actions of one arm of the government to another part of the government that sanctioned those actions in the first place? You know what else the Nazis did? They set up the equivalent of a hotline to report the Jews to the Gestapo. Not the other way around. In your example, who is acting more like the Nazi government? 3
