Red eye, is there something wrong with you. My parents are in there 80's. They get the flu shot every year. They have never gotten the flu. They are both not in the greatest of health. I know this virus is most likely going to kill them. We should be worried about our parents and grandparents. Everything has to be shut down. We have to take care of the ones we love. Fuck work, who can constraint at work with this going on. I am a manger at a warehouse, my mind is not with work. I love mu job, but I love my love ones more. I live in New jersey, the cases are tripling every day.

My parents are in their 70's - and I'm quite confident that this virus is not "most likely going to kill them" - I think u need to take a step back from the entire situation - it's got ur thinking a little paranoid

Totally agree. All in or all out but stop the middle nonsense.


Lmfaooooooooooooooooooooooooo.


You seriously can’t make this shit up. This fucking cock muncher needs to be banned seriously.

WHAT THE FUCK.

NOW he says shut everything down!?!?!?? WOW. Bahahahhahahahahhahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahaah what a fucking piece of shit LOSER. Oh my fucking God. Too fucking funny. This loser has five threads alone and about 600 posts in a week about how this Virus is all about trying to get trump out of office and isn’t a real concern. He kept telling us how people will be fine in two days and that this is an overreaction! Holy fuck.

There is no way Dipshitzit and these klan members should ever run their mouth at me when this is who they are defending. Unreal

bro, calm the fuck down.

Just tell them to stay in the house and not answer the door. Do they have their supplies?

The worst thing you can as their son is to panic. Come on man. Get yourself together.

MoBTroll logging in for another full day of non-stop trolling.

By far the worst poster in this forum. Not the dumbest (just the 2nd dumbest), as the current dumbest is DuhFelcher.

Not what I said at all.

Just want a commitment either way. Either we don’t shut the country down or we do. I’ll do whatever but there is no middle ground.

You used the term doubled and exponential growth on the same page, (page 20) Using a doubling exponential growth the entire US population will be infected in 32 days!!
I never said anything about double exponential anything. They were completely different posts. The spread of this thing is exponential. That is a fact.

The herd immunity concept is an interesting one and may very well work in certain parts of the world, but you’re spot on that the US isn’t one of those places. Trying to accelerate the spread to the younger/healthier portion of the population, while isolating the at risk community, can create herd immunity and stop the spread as there aren’t enough uninfected bodies for the virus to continue spreading at an exponential rate.

The issue for the US is most experts state you need a 60% infection rate to achieve herd immunity and our population has a +60% at risk pool, possibly higher when you factor in those who care for a parent or grandparent, thus indirectly moving them and their entire family in the at risk profile. We simply couldn’t get to the 60% without exposing a significant portion of those at risk.

Totally agree on half-measures, there’s absolutely no evidence that these partial precautions will have a material impact on the spread, it’s got to be all or nothing.

You bring up some great points . Great post .

I just want to ask one question.

Where do you get this 60% figure for US citizens being in the high risk pool category ?

I find that number to be awfully high .

You used the term exponential growth which involves exponents ie doubling, tripling, etc etc... Learn the difference! You're speaking more of a linear growth.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_growth
Again, this virus is 100% on an exponential growth pattern. That is a FACT. I can point you to graphs that clearly show it, but you should be smart enough to find them for yourself.

Here is a quote right from your link above, lol.


  • A virus (for example SARS, or smallpox) typically will spread exponentially at first, if no artificial immunization is available. Each infected person can infect multiple new people.

I do a lot of work with health systems and their corresponding medical schools across the country and these figures came up during a few recent meetings I attended related to COVID-19. I did not check their accuracy, but they aligned with what I’ve seen previously, except for the neoplasms, whose figure is new to me.

Population > 65: 16-18%
Heart disease < 65: 13-15%
Respiratory disease: < 65: 9-11%
Diabetics < 65: 6-8%
Existing or recent neoplasms < 65: 5-7%

Note: Some individuals will check off multiple of these boxes inflating the number.

I would also caveat that plenty of at risk individuals will not become infected at all or will become infected and fall into the 80% of patients with mild to moderate symptoms. It’s far from a guarantee that an at risk individual will fall into the 20% who have severe or critical symptoms. What is becoming clearer is the 20% with severe to critical symptoms are made up almost entirely of at risk individuals.

They don't have enough ICUs and supplies to keep up with the critically ill, so now they are just letting people die.

Very sad.

EXPONENTIAL GROWTH is different than linear growth!

Whenever you have exponential growth, whatever it is that's growing will double its presence/population in a given amount of time. Let's say you start with a population that has just one infected person on January 1st, and the number of infected people doubles every three days.

Look at exponential growth in green!! It far surpasses linear growth as time marches on!! 250 unit 8, 500 unit 9, 1000 unit 10. Doubling!! Sheesh gotta spell it out to you! Like I said before you kept saying exponential growth and mentioned double the cases in a day on the same page, therefore the entire US should be infected in 30 days!!

Sounds like mortality rate is trending down to 1% rather the 3% the squad is screaming at us..

I think Italy numbers are finally going to start going way down in the next 72 hrs .

30% of all test came up positive today.

Yes that’s bad news and more deaths but there will be a lot of immune people in Italy very soon
