    America has a fraction of the population of China, and yet today surpassed China in cases of the Coronavirus at 81,321

    If current trends continue we’ll far surpass every nation on earth for the most deaths from this pandemic.

    Why?

    Today March 26, 2020 we celebrate the one month anniversary of Donald Trump’s famous quote ‘We have 15 cases of Coronavirus, and will soon have none” “We’re not China”

    Looks like Florida during Spring Break where one college student was quoted as saying "whatever happens, happens" "If I get corona, I get corona,"
    "At the end of the day, I'm not going to let it stop me from partying"


    Now it appears Florida will eventually become the hardest hit state, and with the most vulnerable population of 62 and over - they’re screwed

    Ugh, you are going to bitch either way aren't you. Low number of cases - oh, because not enough testing, that's Donald's fault, a whole bunch of cases all of a sudden. Oh, it's spreading everybody panic, Donald didn't do enough

    That US mortality rate ( relatively speaking as usual) is looking pretty good. 1.4%

    Go USA!

    That picture tells us 3 things:

    1. How much young Australians are actually buying all this

    2. There wasn't a single cop that passed by one of Melbourne's busiest beaches all day

    3. If one did, there weren't so much as 50 cops to spare to do anything about it

    There were three waves to the Spanish flu

    First wave, no one worked out what they were dealing with in time, so nothing was really done

    Second wave, in Europe anyway, there was no lockdown as it was end of WW1, couldn't do lock downs even if they wanted to

    Third wave, a whole bunch of people died from aspirin poisoning because most "experts" at the time thought 40mg of aspirin was a good idea

    And I'm begining to see that posters from that era about quarantine measures don't really tell you what really went on

    I think I'm going to call it now

    For me to believe Germany is going to end up like Italy, their death toll would have to double every day for the next 5 days. Which ain't going to happen

    And the US, outside NY death rate is a relative trickle. You guys caught the tail end of a seasonal virus. Go help New York

    I didn't realize until this moment your driven by fear, pure fear and living in complete denial (which is a perfectly normal) given the enormity and gravity of the situation.

    This shit is just beginning

    Many were so ready to throw so many young people's futures under the bus, so quickly, so that a bunch of 70 year Olds can live another couple of years

    That's just what happened



    My country might be on the front line in July this year. I will be quite happy to sacrifice 100,000 70 yr olds ,(except glenglen, well he is out in the middle of nowhere anyway) and send high risk under 50 year olds for a holiday in a nice hotel in the country so our kids have the best future
