If I had my way we’d have 200,000 dead and 339,800,000 more not at risk of dying from poverty, suicide, cancer, heart attacks, and homicidal violence.HHusky said:
We'd easily hit 200,000 dead if you had your way. As it is, if deaths don't decline pretty damn soon, we'll hit that optimistic 60,000 figure by May 1.RaceBannon said:

So weº sit here in isolation, at a 45 points below what's required for herd immunity, with no vaccine in sight, going broke until the food runs out.HHusky said:
While there are 800,000 confirmed coronavirus cases in the United States — that’s 0.24 percent of the U.S. population — former FDA commissioner Scott Gottlieb has noted that anywhere between 1 percent and 5 percent of Americans may have actually already been infected with the virus. But that’s far short of the 50 percent to 70 percent required to achieve herd immunity. The seasonal flu, by contrast, infected 12 percent of the American population last year because we have a flu vaccine and some more immunity from previous infections.

2 million dead!
200,000 dead!

Maybe it exposed the fallacy that big incompetent government was going to save us. Maybe it exposed us to the fact that sucking chicom dick was a problem. When you leftards hate America and Trump more than the chicoms, that is definitely a problem.incremetal_progress said:not to mention a healthcare system where insurance is tied to employment. 20 million lose their job, 20 million lose their health insurance. Yet nobody is proposing anything to fix that either.
It's almost like the virus is exposing all of the problems that already existed.
I disagree with the protesters, but if they are angry they have a right to be. -
We make that choice daily and have as long as humans have existed.YellowSnow said:

Imagine a healthcare system suddenly freed of 200,000 who demand the most of the system. All those pre-existing conditions. All those FTE to care for the elderly and invalid.MikeDamone said:

In this new age of telehealth, pharmacy/testing by amazon and outsourced surgery centers, think of productivity gains in health care on the way. -
I hadn't quite put it in that context - but have at various times ranted about the ridiculous costs of end-of-life measures. Not necessarily rooting for 200,000 geezers to croak but it does prompt a lot of WTF do we do things the way we do coming out of this.doogie said:

You are so gayHHusky said:
I pretty much agree with you. To have undergone this economic damage only to be forced to shut it all down again would REALLY be a disaster. The calculated course you describe is what we need, including calculated risks.DoogieMcDoogerson said:
Good job, H. The reality is it won't matter how many die if the result of all of these measures is we plunge into a big depression. That will be far worse than 100,000 dead as it will literally affect everyone. This is why we have to take somewhat, or maybe not, risky steps to get the economy going. There are no absolutes. Everything is a tradeoff. Beware of anyone speaking in absolutes.HHusky said:
I think my 100,000 number by the end of the year is looking pretty likely, though perhaps overly optimistic. Maybe you meant we’d have 5,000 dead if it hadn’t snowed?PurpleThrobber said:

State and Local authorities need to manage the reopening with precision and specificity driven by their local conditions. State level and US level mandates are what got us where we are. When this step happens, we will see the light at the end of the tunnel miles away. -
