Ah, you're seeing that wrong. Let me help...The virus has no impact on the overwelming number of people that get it. Those who are at a high risk should protect themselves. The rest have no concerns and should go about their daily lives as normal. Government interference is not needed.
I agree with you. My reply was based on sarcasm and how media/government will spin it.

He should cease all Chinese assets(Government and private) here in the US and tell China our debt to them is considered paid in full.

F* China !
They have been nothing but thieves and liars since they were allowed to participate in the Global stage. And if they wasn’t enough ... pepper in some good ole fashioned genocide.

F* em!

Preach.

Haven't they been saying that? That's what an IFR is for. Otherwise, the case fatality rate is 1.74%.

I think state leaders really want to be able to completely open up their economies. It doesn't benefit them to keep things closed.
I think you meant to say it doesn't AFFECT them to keep things closed. These politicians ain't hurting one damn bit. They are just trying to use fear and identity politics to hold onto their power.

Don’t vote for democrat- he will allow abortion, introduce socialism, and take away your guns

Don’t vote for theRepublican- he will ban abortions, only help the rich, and keep allowing school shootings

In reality, whatever it takes to get re-elected, that’s the side most politicians are on.

If this country was in trouble and not great, we’d vote all of congress out.

Lololololol. This has been predicted several times and the first time I fell for it. The virus is extremely contagious and mutating all the time. The vaccines won’t cover all strains and the lockdowns have been effectively useless. The vast majority of infections are from work or home ie indoors. Deblasio admitted last summer that most cases in NYC were from people who were sheltered at home. it won’t surprise me if we have Covid seasons every year just like influenza seasons every year.
Hell if humanity is doomed, we may as well just get back to normal and live it up. YOLO!!!!!

No truer words have been spoken. Without term limits, we are perpetually screwed. I have never been a Democrat supporter per se although I have voted that way on occasion, but I have become ashamed to identify as a Republican as well.
At this point I feel any Republican or Democrat who has been in Congress more than 12 years (2 terms for the Senate) needs to go.

Agree 100%!!!!! We can’t even pass an infrastructure bill. Multiple times a year, we face the threat of a government shut down. Our power grid, roads, internet, and bridges new major updating. There’s a need to raise taxes and reduce spending. Those are more important than the political posturing we’ve seen.

15% of the population gets vaccinated, and 77% decrease in that time. I'm not a math major, but I'm calling BS

US population 330 million
28 million x 6.5 = 182 million or 55%
15% has already gotten one dose
Total population immunity is about 70%

Not to mention Tcell impact.

The recovery we see is cycling partially and driven by herd immunity - yes - it is over by April and gone during the summer.

The corruption of the Federal government is the biggest issue in the country today.

To end the politics of corruption:
1) Constitutional amendment to change the length of time a person can serve in the House or Senate. to 12 years. If there is a "good" politician they can still serve 24 years. American people will support this and it will be bi-partisan.
2) Flat tax to eliminate the corruption in the tax code. Similar to Jack Kemps/Steve Forbes ideas with a personal exemption such that a family of 4 pays no tax under about $36,000 and approximately 22% tax rate or so for all sources of income above that exemption level. This will force the rich to pay at 22% and this should be the same for businesses. Sorry tax accountants, Turbo Tax, and H&R Block.
3) There need to be laws about lobbying on the basis of foreign governments once leaving office.
4) Reform in the main stream media and social media. There need to be reforms/laws and easier ways to legally challenge censorship and media corruption. I do not care if you are a radical Islamist, white supremacist, Marxist BLM, or Antifa, you have the right to free speech and the attempts for government to censor points of view is not American. This is one of the biggest issues in society today - there is no objective media and it is biased today. A social media platform has no right to decide what should be censored. Perhaps there also needs to be a constitutional amendment as well to address this type of censorship.
5) Reform in the college admission process and balanced teaching from both left and right points of view. The education systems in colleges and K-12 needs balance and not one sided liberalism.

There are several more but these are critical.

That really makes no sense to me. They already have power. There’s not much advantage for them at all of keeping things closed.

DHEC sure did. Don’t know about the WHO outside of their fantastic musical career.
Yeah, I did read something about how DHEC was measuring things differently than how the CDC has been recommending to do it for a while. Most people are talking about WHO when they bring it up, be cause how SC was counting tests doesn’t make much of a dent in national and international numbers.

I hope you don't believe the Fact Checkers that's the same as believing the media.
Read the actual piece and tell me what you think. They quote the people from WHO who wrote the policy. Also, nobody at the CDC has even commented on the WHO’s policy, which makes this whole discussion moot.

A lack of govt interference led to 500k deaths in the US while Australia already has basically no covid and freaks out if there are any reported cases. The US govt response has been an absolute disaster.

1.5% of the population. (EDIT: .15%--Sorry, wrote that wrong. That is 1 in every 600 Americans...)

Pretty much everyone knows someone who has died from COVID now, but people remain so cavalier in their lack of respect for human life. What is it that Dickens said--if they are going to die, they better do it quick and decrease the surplus population. That is how covid is treating by those who favor capitalism and greed over humanity and christlike virtue.

Without Trumps amazing vaccine program, the Biden administration would be screwed.

Meh.

Operation Warp Speed wasn't about just vaccine development--it was supposed to be about distribution as well. So much wasteful govt spending on the distribution side. Trump admin threw money around to prototypes for vaccine injections in the billions--all for nothing. Biden took over and the vaccine stock was nothing--embarrassingly low. Trump admin had promised some 300 million doses by Jan 2021--didn't come close to happening.

Warp speed basically awarded contracts to a bunch of con men who came in and made insane pitches to gullible idiots in the trump admin. Throwing money everywhere but at the actual problem. Trump should get credit for giving money to Moderna. The Sanofi billions and the AstraZeneca billions have been total wastes. Trump deserves some credit for this but there was a lot of mismanagement going on. There were distribution plans being put in place but they were squashed when covid was hitting blue states hard, to own the libs. Just dumb.

Pfizer's was developed in Germany through a company called BioNTech with no OWS funds.

The real shame was all the stupidity about hydroxy and wasteful spending esp when monoclonal antibodies are the real deal and if taken within 10 days of contracting covid cut the risk of even being hospitalized significantly and would've saved hundreds of thousands of lives.

If anyone on here gets covid--ask for the transfusion for monoclonal antibodies immediately. DEMAND IT from providers.

What would you suggest instead of capatilism?
Also, I find it ironic we want to blame our government, yet completely turn a blind eye to China. The country that brought the deadly virus to the world. The country that covered it up and restricted travel within its borders, while allowing it's citizens to travel to other countries to spread the disease. It sucks so many Americans are willing to continue to turn a blind eye to the communist party and the genocide they commit not only on their people but now ours. Where is the outrage?

The problem is this thing has been political and screwed up from the beginning and you really have to be skeptical of any of the dang numbers and even moreso, any predictions of Covids course.

Some people on both sides of the COVID issue really don't want the pandemic to go away, I've decided.
Mind Fvckery at its finest... up is down, down is up. The doctors are gonna be the ones most shocked when the cases go away now the they changed requirements for positive cases on the PcR tests.

I love all the sarcasm in the thread, it’s great, proves we are all just along for a ride.

or we all finally realize Covid was used to get mail in ballets and keep people inside during the election.

400 million Biden is given to Wuhan lab thought to release the virus. Great job Wuhan, thanks for killing a bunch of Americans, here have some of our American taxes while people starve in Texas and lost their jobs. Everything makes complete sense these days.

Talked to a lady yesterday who said after 5 days of suffering she got the transfusion and she improved immediately.

First paragraph is BS, and no better than the kind of politicizing partisanship that has people denying there’s any problem with the virus.

In another post, you say the the US response was a total disaster and cite Australia, as if Australia was in a similar situation in the first place, and as if other similarly situated countries didn’t have worse results from their pandemic responses.

“They” haven’t changed the number of cycles for positive tests, hmmm could have fooled me.

Why did the news outlets take the Covid ticket down right after inauguration? Seemed a bit weird. Why wouldn’t they want us to see cases/deaths dropping as they have?

Serious question from someone not at either extreme, these variant are already here and supposedly much more virulent, given these facts and the current case trends across the northern hemisphere. What factor is this model using to predict another spike?
The virus is a political virus, the spike will occur if they need to change a narrative in the media.
