I wonder how many deaths will eventually be linked to the first big run on grocery stores, when people started hoarding toilet paper? Every grocery store was jam packed with non-thinkers who, based on bottle water shortages, apparently also thought water faucets were going to run dry. There was certainly a big spike in cases everywhere right after the lockdowns started.
Interesting study for sure. I was not aware that many flu cases can be asymptomatic. Anecdotally, I've never known anyone with flu who wasn't truly sick while list of people I know with Covid with little to no symptoms is growing weekly. But I'm fully aware anecdotal evidence isn't scientific and we don't test for flu in same way we're testing for Covid so two different animals. Thanks for sharing!
Perspective:
WW2 resulted in 416,800 U.S military deaths.
In approximately 5 months, we have 154,000 U.S. COVID deaths.
At this rate, a year from now COVID deaths will surpass those of U.S. soldiers in all of WW2.
Biological weapons are much more dangerous than guns and bombs ever could be...
SARS-COV-2 isn't a bio weapon if that is what you are hinting at.
I told my wife that same thing, we were at the store the day my Company sent us to work from home. We stop in the water aisle and she starts loading bottled water. I looked at her and said "It's not a hurricane" The guy next to her doing the same busts out laughing.
LOL I keep 8 cases on hand down here. Crazy how things run out like hand sanitizer, soap and still can't find a spray can of Lysol.
I was only able to get lysol wipes at costco because I was in the store as the new shipment arrived. It was gone within five minutes.
76% of those tested so far are positive!
Lets keep it to your own guidelines please...😉
No, people... What the crap...
What I was saying is that a biological weapon would obviously be more effective than traditional guns and bombs. As the numbers show...
I appreciate my Ivy League poster chiming in and clearing it up.
SC cases still level (thank goodness). Seemed to peak a week to 10 days ago.
Deaths still too high.
Our enrollment continues to grow. We are blessed to be in a huge facility that allows growth, and hired several more teachers this week. Still not sure what athletics and extracurricular activities will completely look like.
What will schools opening do to the trends? We will see...
At this rate...ain’t gonna happen.
And if does then it wasn’t preventable.
This is not my favorite comparison.
For perspective, more Americans die of both heart disease and cancer every single year than died in all of WW2. We’ve yet to close the World for either and they both happen again and again every year.
How many Americans over age 65, with two plus conditions of either heart disease, cancer, copd, obesity, diabetes, or low vitamin D died during WW2?
How many WW2 veterans would have supported what we’ve done so far?
I’m confused. Are you complaining about DV’s?
Unfortunately the learning gap could continue to grow.....
Private school kids in Texas going back to classrooms while many public school kids will still be "learning" from home.
There will be kids that could end up missing a half year of school and likely more.
