    Without using random testing, testing tens of millions will take months. We don't have months.

    The point with testing is to see who has had it. 50 million people get the flu, 50,000 die and life goes on. We need the ANTIBODIES testing so we can eliminate the fear factor and prove that it isn't as deadly as it is being made out to be. If we can prove 25 million people have had it and only 75,000 people died it will go a long way to getting the country back to business as usual. But without that, (and I'm not saying its correct) many are going to be paralyzed with fear and this could drag on to the point of cratering the US as we know it.

    The one thing Trump said that I agree with is the cure cant be worse than the disease. It's true, but until it can be shown that the mortality rate is alot less than it appears as of now it's going to be alot more difficult to convince people. It doesn't matter who 're-opens' the economy, ultimately the American people will decide. My opinion is massive antibodies testing is how that can happen.

    The fear factor could be eliminated if the media and politicians stopped fear mongering.

    Explain to me how this is helping :smile:

    Yes. Hold back the tide, Mike. Stand there on the beach and hold it back.

    Fear mongering is what they do. It's almost all they do. But sure, let's hope they stop now.

    You aren't going to scare someone with immunity whether you're CNN or Fox.

    I think testing results would work. Why dont we freak out about the flu? Because we know the statistics. And accept them. I think it is important to do the same with this. And if we do the media can find something else to sensationalize.

    You were lying before.

    There is nothing intelligent about you. You merely buzz in tone with the rest of the hive.

    But the coronabros needed some new blood I guess, so here we are.

    That and @GreenRiverGatorz is a pussy who is afraid to bet on himself.
    Wow. What a gigantic cunt you are. Why don't you drive up here, Sally. I'll gut you like a fish and filet you on my tailgate. The only mudhole you'll have to worry about is the one I throw your fucking carcass in.

    What was I lying about? I haven't really paid attention to you before, but you really are a prick. I'm not even sure what you are talking about.

    "It's not helping. At all. Again, this isn't political for me. I'm just thinking as an intelligent UW graduate. "

    Your words, not mine.

    What matters is hospitalization and deaths.

    And just like that, Greenriver joins the ranks of the coronabros.

    Everyone knows that the cases are 2 to 3 times what has been reported. The cases don't matter. What matters is hospitalization and deaths. And now your vaunted experts are openly lying about deaths, padding the stats to try to save the hospitals that they thought were saving from overload but are only bankrupting.

    You have joined the ranks of the idiots that think we will get this down to 0 cases. "Cuz derp, Look at China, they don't have any cases, derp, And if we can't, derp, get to zero cases, derp, we need to stay shut down, derp until we have a vaccine, derp"

    Guess what? We have vaccines for SARS 1, H1N1 and all of the other flus. And guess what, they come back and sicken millions of Americans every year and kill anywhere from 25 to 70 thousand per year. Many that took the vaccine.

    The I'm gonna trust the coaches strategy is idiotic as the Coaches have done multiple 180's within the last month on this.

    My only hope is that those that still have some common sense left, will wiin the day. But it's not looking good, because we are losing more and moar of them everyday.
