Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
Pin this shit. Numbers and shit give you fucking perspective.
The famous UW model predict 842 deaths by August 4th and then the shit is pretty much done.
Population of Washington State in 2018 was 7.536 million
1/100th of a percent

fill in the blank. Flu? Homelessness?
4 cops cars out front. A fire truck and 2 ambulances parked about a block away waiting for the police to secure the scene - that's the new protocol for first responders. Police go in first, then the fire/paramedics and medical transport go in.
Old people freak out. Hurt each other. That's just one of many. Domestic Violence cases are up right now across all age groups - they just are back page news. Just like property crimes are starting to rise. But that doesn't make for good press conferences.
People will continue to get hurt and possibly die because of this debacle -and it will have nothing to do with the COVID - other than lives disrupted. If you're that naive to think the financial stress isn't going to fuck with people, you are a heartless cunt.
Not saying you're a heartless cunt because maybe you're not naive. Don't twist. But your response indicates naivety, so clearly a heartless cunt in waiting. Don't go down the same path as H, ID and the troll.
The real question I have is this: Reading about R0 mitigation, it seems like closing schools, social distancing and masks, and banning large events would have gotten us to a very similar spot we're at now.
None of those things would have crashed the economy.
The state governments pressed literally every damn button they could to reduce R0. Even fishing.
I really doubt that a lot of these things beyond the common sense measures I listed above, made a difference.
When it comes to fire those guys have never lost a foundation! When a building across the street from the fire station burns to the ground you know they like to watch! It's all about looks for Americas Heroes!
Whenever shit is happening you will always hear "ask the police if it's safe to come in" over their radio.
