Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

So now that falling deaths is no longer a talking point



we're back to talking about how we're flattening the curve, just as I predicted.

Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

    When did you predict this and the mortality rate is going down. Imagine testing millions of people to see if they’re sick with a specific virus, yet the tests have been shown to be faulty.

    Flattening the curve was the only reason for the lockdown

    Its flat. Hospitals are not overwhelmed. Dead bodies are not stacked up

    What the fuck is your point

    2 outright falsehoods. It was flat, not anymore.

    Where are the dead bodies stacked up? That’s an obvious lie by you.

    Also, the mortality rate is flattened due to testing litterally millions.

    What’s your point? You just lied about bodies stacked up, so share your wisdom.

    The point of the lockdowns was to do 2 things.

    1. Flatten the curve so hospitals aren't overwhelmed
    2. Buy time, suppress the virus, and develop infrastructure to allow for a re-opening that was smart and safe. Because if #1 happens without #2 then the curve will only be flat as long as shit is closed which is not sustainable. At that point shutting down is a waste of time as you are just delaying the inevitable.

    Europe did both #1 and #2, that's why they're adding a fraction of the cases per day we're adding (but according to dumbfuck PGOS we're doing better because more people died there 4 months ago). Asia in many cases didn't even need to lock down but where they did they did #1 and #2.

    Guess what route we chose?

    At what point are we allowed to say bodies have stacked up? When it hits 150k? 200k?

    The mortality rate is now in line with a seasonal flu. Gunshot victims and “probable” deaths without testing are being added.

    You’re a fucking moron. You write fairly well, but your ignorance to “Science!” makes me embarrassed for you, @incremetal_progress.

    Tell me where bodies are being stacked up, too.

    Have you been getting paid during this shutdown. Either you’re a public worker getting paid, or you’re on the Mom and Dad White Privilege Plan. You seem to have zero empathy for millions out of work. Are you a sociopath/Asperger’s case like @HHusky?

    Yes/No

    fuck off. Millions of workers being out of work is fucking awful. A situation where people are ostensibly "in work" but not getting any business because people remain scared about the virus is no better. My mother actually had her hair done the other day for the first time since March and she said she was the last customer that stylist had for the day and it was like 1PM in a generally busy establishment.

    Not to mention a situation like Texas where bars had to restaff to re-open and now have to fire everyone again cause they have to close again. How the fuck is that good for business?

    Not giving a fuck about the virus has and will continue to prolong this suffering. Sweden never shut down and still suffered significant job loss, so spare me the "you don't care about workers" bullshit that the GOP has been pushing when their leadership has failed them.

    Spare me your faux empathy for millions losing jobs as you hype up WuFlu stats. You don’t give a shit about it as long as it may bring down Drumpf.

    Are you going to answer my question? Public worker, or still on the Mom and Dad plan?

    Which one, son? No way you have an adult life.

    so what's your proposal to help them? we're not locked down so I'm not sure what is the cause of this anger from you about pointing out the reality. What's holding back the economy is literally the virus, you don't have your democrat governor boogie men to blame anymore.

    Show me video of people dying of Covid waiting for a room while being turned away.

    Houston has a Democrat mayor and allowed mass protests and even then you can’t show me proof that hospitals are in overrun. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

    there's nothing, just a sudden spike in people dying before they even reach the hospital

    Of “cardiac arrest” according to your chart. How many heart disease patients didn’t get the exercise and appointments they need during the Democrat Shutdown in Houston?

    Thanks for proving the shutdown killed more people with heart disease.

    Same time as he disclosed the location of the bodies stacked like cordwood.

    okay I guess I'll spell it out. A virus can impact different parts of the body. But I guess if you want to believe a 50% spike in such deaths is just pure randomness sure I guess.

    I didn’t say it was random. I said heart disease people need exercise and doctor visits, not to mention the stress associated with not being able to work.

    The postulator bears the burden of proof on that one.

    Since Houston is so interesting to everyone



    20% of Houston hospital beds are covid positive. A higher number than I’d like to see, but not exactly supporting the paramedics “might as well not even play the game” graph.

    statewide it’s ~17% covid in hospital beds.

    Again, I would like to see this crest and subside. Everyone wears masks now, I was in Waco when the announcement came and it seemed to switch within an hour or so. George Floyd and Memorial Day were perfectly overlapped so we can have abundance of blame.

    Saddle up bitches, this is the last chapter of the covid drama.

    that's really good news that masks are now being worn universally. Pretty much everyone is wearing them now in King County so hopefully the ship can be turned around.
