    We've now added a color code for all accounts. Orange accounts are new members, Blue are full members, and Green are Supporters. If you get a message about a sale from an orange account, make sure you pay attention before sending any money!

Quarantined until June 10

"Recovered" has a definition, and it =/= "confirmed but not dead." To be recovered, the afflicted must have previously tested positive, but currently exhibiting no symptoms, and test negative (I think twice). So, the delta between "dead" and "recovered" is the "still experiencing symptoms and/or testing positive" category.

COVID-19 is not the flu. But...the last time we had an actual "flu" pandemic, in the early 20th century, 675,000 people died in the USA alone. 500 million people were infected and 50 million died (probably many, many more).

Of course you are "entitled" to your opinion, but it might be nice to have a few facts bouncing around in that imaginative head of yours.

Lol, we're in a flu pandemic every year. Hell, there are multiple pandemics every year.

This virus is basically a SARS type virus. We get a type of it in the US every year just like the flu, and many of the COVID cases annually are mistakenly diagnosed as the flu since not everyone is tested but diagnosed based on the symptoms. Speaking of which, it is fairly common to become infected with COVID 19 and show no worse an infection than the common cold.

While influenza and SARS-CoV-2 are not the same they do cause similar symptoms though COVID is worse to acquire. Most people even on this board are not disputing there are differences between the two or downplaying that its a bad infection to have. Most however are just not buying the doomsday hype that millions upon millions in the US will die. There's always a chance that those scenarios could happen but I, like most here, have our doubts. You seem to believe it and that's fine. To each their own. However since our elected officials have a less than stellar track record proving that they are working for the betterment of the average Joe on the street I'll remain skeptical.

Ahh so that explains everything. Now I know why things are tense g. His great great grand daddy’s Yankee asses burned my great great grand daddy’s houses and farms to the ground after the war.
Shit-fire, his great-great-granddaddy's Yankee-ass cousin prolly stayed in my great-great-granddaddy's South Carolina plantation house! (54th Mass actually did, as a matter of fact) And then they gave my home city to their durned Damnyankeebastard president as a Christmas present. As far as I know, we still belong to the Lincolns 'cause I don't think Sherman kept the receipt.

Well, I'm just going to way out on a limb here and say I doubt you have any educational, medical, scientific or some other professional credentials to reach conclusions about the data that are being scrutinized by John Hopkins. I hear old John is a pretty smart dude. But, come to think of it, Theiss, how is that website of your's coming along? At least John Hopkins has a working website. Maybe he can give you some pointers?? :) LOL
Oh that's gonna leave a mark!!!!!!
OUCH
You remind me of a guy named Sam, he was supposedly an expert at everything.
It took Theis all of about 2 mins to have the guys name and all of his families names along with his location.
Sam lasted a day,

COVID-19 is not a flu virus. Why do you keep repeating that bit of stupidity? What part of "facts" are apparently things you have an allergy against?


Never said it was flu.

What Im saying is lets see that same map for our seasonal flu, yet without the hysteria, and people might say.....

"Wait one minute......"
 
Hi,

Lets see how the Publishing House likes how he acts behind their backs.....

So who is the dude in his avatar?
 
Not that it’s not entertaining, because it is, but how many times has this played out? Someone comes in here being a dick (in their own personal way), and insults and know-it-alls their way across the board, and then mistakenly pings a real secret squirrel with real squirrel powers. Most of us are not working snipers, working T1s, or spooky spooks, but there is a high concentration of such here, and people seem to forget that they are here and lurking if not posting...
That's not The Dude.

It's John Goodman. From The Big Lebowski. Actually a good movie.

You know .......this whole suggestion of social distancing, lockdowns , shelter in place , road blocks , ect .
Just seems to remind me of the old frog in a pot. just turn the heat up a little at a time so it doesn't notice .
First it's for 2 weeks , now it's 30 days , next it will be 2 months........ just a little more heat , not too much at one time. ?????

That’s some fucking stalker/creepo shit right there. All because someone has a difference of opinion... What’s wrong with being men about it? Disagree, call each other assholes if you wish, and move on. No need to go psychopath on the guy.
 
You're already in it, from your relative that thought they'd track the family tree on Ancestry.com

THAT right there is what people don't understand.
If any somewhat closely related member of your extended family went on one of those "Ancestry" or "Medical" DNA testing covert operations then you are on the national DNA database.

And it's not just conspiracy either, there are a bunch of documented cases of that information being used to track down closely related 3rd parties.

Check out cases like the “grim sleeper.” He was caught because of “familial DNA.”

A relative was in prison and thusly had their dna taken. When using dna from crime scenes there was a partial match. So they looked into his family members that could be linked to those crimes.

Hi,

I thought is was pretty hilarious a Pastor driving a "Soul", lololol.....
Looks like the other parts of my reply stepped out of bounds and were quarantined by the staff members.

Edited To Add:

Onto DNA Database......Unless you entered decades ago; if you have a DD214 you are already in the database anyways.

The old barracks blanket party takes on new methodology on the internet.

Ray and Stevie could see that coming from the grave.

"Beware all ye who enter these gates" seems appropriate.
 
Hi,

They are dead???
I seriously need to update my news parameters, lol...

We have lost some good ones. Showing our age now.

So, after the first blanket party, there seemed to always be a dumb f that didnt get it.

After the second blanket party, were all the shower suicides..... suicides ?

And there seemed to be some even dumber f that didnt get it.
Never looked into their occupation or cars they drove.

Always knew there was one guy in the bunch that looked out for us. Was always glad to have him.

Safe days Brother !

And keep in mind the much smaller total population in the world at that time. It was an incredibly devastating pandemic. Those numbers were apocalyptic at the time.

edit: just realized ol' infuriator got himself a timeout. Folks are getting testy lately and dropping like flies.

The biggest screw up was in a lack of testing, not because we could quarantine people (but it's always a good idea to stay home when your sick with something contagious) but because it would have instantly squashed the fear/panic. I'd be willing to bet millions have had this, recovered from it just fine over the last 2 months.

However, because there's no mass testing, people can assume the worst case that the media loves to breed and freak out. Trump is going to get destroyed over this by the media and the longer there isn't widespread testing to show people that millions of people have had this and got better, panic will not subside. It will subside in a couple months as this works its way through the population and people are not falling over dead everywhere. It also artificially increases the mortality rate when you have no idea how many people have had it but recovered because you never tested them. PA has 13 million people, and we've tested less than 35,000 and over 4000 were positive. That's basically the same # of positive cases when NY had done the same number of tests, except they've now tested over 200,000 people.

I live out in PA, my GF (she has a compromised immune system) had to be admitted to the ER before they'd test her when her breathing got so bad she could not finish a sentence with her doctor on the phone, after having increasing symptoms for 9 days they could not explain or treat and she didn't respond to antibiotics. A common story here is people are told they've randomly got pneumonia and Rx antibiotic and a breathing steroid. We're still waiting to hear back on her test after 5 days but she's much better now, even the ER doctor was like "you know you have this right?". I'm pretty sure I've had it looking back at her symptom progression, but I had only the mildest symptoms. If I'd have had this without knowing she was very sick, and being told to quarantine. I'd have never even thought twice about going to work, etc. Seasonal allergies are 10x worse than what I had. There are people at her work following in her symptom progression but milder that can't get tested either.

My view, yes it seems to attack some even young healthy people very badly, but for most, it's just another flu/cold. If you are old, or have a compromised immune system, it's dangerous, but so is the flu.

Funny part is, when we took her to the ER it was basically empty. Turns out when people are too scared to go to the ER with BS stuff, there's not that many people there. It probably also helps most of the idiot PA drivers are off the roads.
