I've been saying it since the beginning. I've had it. It's not fun-in-the-sun but it's not the plague either.

It's over.

Oh yeah, it's done. Sore throat and dry cough aren't PLEASANT but it's just a trumped up cold IMHO. And I have Lyme disease and a number of coinfections, so I am quite well immune-compromised.

I have no idea what I just read.

Oh? A sample of 1 means it's a hoax? The thousands of dead in Italy are what, a conspiracy?! They died from something else?!

[–]TranquilityApe 5 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

Maybe. 99% of those who died in Italy had pre-existing medical conditions. And the average age of those who died was 79.5 years old. Sadly, people do get old and die. I read where a guy fell and hit his head and died because of the fall. But he'd tested positive for the virus, so they counted it as a coronavirus death. They are looking for ways to make the numbers higher to scare people and validate the hype.

More than 25,000 Americans have already died of regular flu.

We just accept that we cannot "contain" it.

Falsification is hardly a difficulty.

THIS IS HATE SPEECH

[–]beermeem 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

This didn't age well.

Northern Italy has the worst air pollution in Europe and if my source is right, it is worse that China. Air pollution and heavy smoking make people more prone to the flu, and that is all coV19 is.

They need more fear and panic if they're going to successfully leave a psychological impression on Americans that the Wuflu tanked the economy and it wasn't actually because of their decades of intentionally bad monetary policy.

My brother who works in an ER thought it was a joke, but people are now coming in with full symptoms. He was exposed the other day when a guy drove his car to the ER, then collapsed in the driver's seat once at the door. My brother, and a couple other went out to check on the guy passed out. He leaned in the car, and gave the guy a sternum rub, which my brother is all proud of how painful he can do it, and 'everyone responds'... This guy didn't, then died a few hours later.

So it sounds strongly like the classic ARDS. The hospital had some sort of risk management clinician rate my brother's exposure, as 'high', and now he's wearing full PPE to work; otherwise he'd have to take personal time.

I don't know the real lethality of this bug, but I know my brother's attitude has changed on it.

How old was the "guy"? Old folks die from pneumonia and CoV all the time, every year. Also, the testing for corona includes all corona, not just CoV19.

[–]HeyImSancho 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I don't know, and I don't know. Was simply sharing something as the way I know it. As far as all corona, not just CoV19, he said it was 19. Again, simply sharing.

yup, it's not severe. go out and lick as many surfaces as you can. /s

[–]beermeem 1 insightful - 4 fun1 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 4 fun -  (2 children)

mmmm, which of your surfaces would you enjoy having licked, big boi?

[–]deathstar 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

none

[–]beermeem 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

boring...

[–]HeavySprinkles 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

lol you should tell the people of Italy it's all good, you've got it figured out.

[–]Zahn 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Aww c'mon, put some effort into it.

[–]cynical_americano 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (8 children)

retards with no medical knowledge telling people a highly contagious virus is a "hoax" are as bad a fucking high school dropouts trying to tell an engineer why their design of a turbine engine isn't correct, or that the Earth is Flat. until you put in the time and research to have the Md/Dr next to you name, shut your cocksucker

[–]Velocity 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Ip2 is leaking, please stay in your containment board. World events unlike turbine engines have a great deal of variables involved which can affect the perception and outcome of these events. You should wait until you're educated enough in the matter before you spew such pompous nonsense.

[–]hennojisan 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (6 children)

Yes, the renowned scientists on this site are retards. Not.

[–]cynical_americano 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

wow 12 vs the 1000's confirming it. just like climate change. how moving... not

[–]hennojisan 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

Right, twelve leading epidemiologists vs. millions of retarded sheep. It's a hard choice but I will go with the twelve. How is the weather in Tel Aviv? Are you a second-year student in community college? If you push down the SHIFT KEY it makes a capital letter there Cynical Palestnian Killer. Climate? You've never taken a course in statistics and neither has little Greta. Come back after you finish highschool.

yikes, full blown sperg out.

[–]cynical_americano 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

btw no, i graduated with dual Bachelor's degrees in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering from one of the top 10 public universities in the USA. Keep on those straw-man arguments though. They're a sure sign of having an actual argument for the topic at hand.

[–]Velocity 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

We all have degrees at illustrious universities. Sadly your imaginary internet credentials don't validate your expertise to have a credible viewpoint on this particular subject matter. You have now confirmed that Ip2 is missing their village idiot, please recuse yourself, the adults are trying to have a conversation.

[–]cynical_americano 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

clearly you lack reading comprehension as i was saying i trust the 1000's of qualified people confirming the gravity of the situation over the 12 that don't. the mention of turbine engines was merely an analogy to engineering. you're the one who brought up my degree, fucko. creep through my post history more, weirdo.

congrats on somehow being more pathetic than the majority of the users on ip2 lol

Seems to me like they'd have a test for those that have had it and those that have immunity to it. It isn't like the flu where it mutates ever year.
