One thread doesn't make it less important than 5.. The rest of your malarkey is distinction with out difference.

In the United States
1,773 people die from heart disease
1,643 people die each day from cancer
465 die each say from just accidents

123 people commit suicide each day... Your incessant drama and panic, use of 'bodies stacking up', and politicization do absolutely nothing but further this number.

You have been consumed by it from the start and it isn't mentally healthy.

I just read where an NFL "insider" shared that "at least one" and probably several more Marlins players ignored the protocols and "went out" while in Atlanta to play the Braves. This is the best thing that could have happened for the NFL. It pounds home the point that the players cannot ignore the protocols and will get caught and punished. It is even a positive for MLB since it is so early in the season that it should help their protocol adherence, as well, from this point on.

AsylumGuido · 07-30-2020, 07:20 AM

Now I'm hearing that the Miami infection may have come from a stewardess. MLB teams are constantly flying from one location to another. Multiple sites a week. The NFL will only have flight to and from games eight times in the regular season. They (NFL Radio) said that the NFL teams will have dedicated charter planes and crew and the crew will be regularly tested like all other personnel. A stewardess will have to pass the same protocol as would a player. The same with all personnel maintaining the planes and luggage. They seem to be trying to cover all bases. This is easier to do in the NFL than in other sports due to that bottomless pocketbook I have previously mentioned.

Oak, we have been friends with similar outlooks for years but I just can't get onboard with this type of thinking. Human life is important to me and I want to protect everyone. The deaths that you mentioned are bad and can't be stopped. Corona deaths are preventable with the proper measures.

Unfortunately for the Republicans it's not just the poor people getting sick and dying. They are losing members of their party as well in the senate. I'm not a Democrat though. I was raised to be a Democrat and voted the straight Democratic ticket but I left their recent agendas and became an independent.

Why let the death numbers rise if we can stop them? This is going to affect the survivors fairly soon from the lung and heart problems associated with the Corona virus. We will have hospitals struggling to meet their demand. Oh, the cost is likely going to have an effect on the economy again. Live and let live

Edit: I might be wrong but I believe that they are trying to prevent heart disease, and cancer as well. Sometimes there's not much that we can do about accidents except research and preventative education.

Don’t really know what heart disease and cancer deaths have to do with covid death counts. Two separate things imo.

Covid is the big one. Most folks are too scared to believe it and so live in some kind of made up fiction in their head.

If Covid were to get out to everyone in this country the death count would be devastating. The CFR hovers between 1 to 8%.

https://www.cebm.net/covid-19/global...atality-rates/

Imagine 350 million cases in the USA. I dunno, seems like simple math to me. Many many dead.

Thing is if most people got on board the prevention train we could end this crap. Most folks are doing their part while others don’t care and will continue to propagate the virus by disregarding protocols and spreading propaganda against protection. Unfortunately for them they will suffer the consequence and become vectors of the disease to continue spreading to more vulnerable folks. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not only is it an irrelevant argument, it is an irrational one as well as it's assuming that the death rate will always be below the rates of the diseases/illnesses he listed above. When NY was at its peak death rate, you were seeing between 2300-2700 deaths a day., We are having between 60-70k infections now, far more than we did during that period. I still think the infections could rise up to 100-150k a day. The deaths per day could end up dwarfing those that he listed above. Another thing that people don't think about also is whether or not the disease causes long term damage to the person. There is increasing evidence that the virus could cause lasting damage to the person. Inflammation is being found all over the body(especially in the heart) well after the infection has supposedly been cleared and the person is testing negative and has IGG antibodies. This virus may leave a person with issues for the rest of their life. If you've asked anyone that's had it how they feel after the infection cleared,.. I know a pretty healthy person that had it that used to run between 5-10 miles 4-5 days a week. Now he's struggling to get anywhere close to that, as he's laboring far more than he did at any point in the past. He supposedly cleared the virus almost a month and a half ago.

It's becoming fairly annoying watching people turn the virus into a political thing. Both parties are guilty of this. A lot of Republicans want to dismiss the virus as liberal hysteria. Democrats try to use to the virus as a political tool to blame Republicans for pretty much anything they can think of incessantly. The virus pretty much highlights all of the political BS that exists in this country.

There is a virus. The virus is incredibly harmful to society. All of the problems that exist right now are not Republicans fault. I mean we may have dismissed one of the best treatments we currently have in hydroxychloroquine in the name of politics. Most of the studies that are being used by liberals to debase it are horrible. These studies don't even take into account the theory of how hydroxychloroquine is supposed to stop the virus(as Zinc is necessary to the process). So now you have the FDA telling people not the use hydroxychloroquine and liberals making fun of anyone that does, and we don't even know if it works or not because politics disrupted our ability to properly gauge its worth. There are a lot of studies that seem to indicate that the drug works when used in combination with other things, but these are largely overlooked and dismissed. I'm not saying that the drug certainly works, but the way we've approached it is childish. You have social media sites blocking posts in which link studies citing that the posts violate their policy on disinformation.

I just feel like we are truly on the brink of civil war. I think Biden being elected and doing things that really disturb conservatives while in office could be the spark. You have liberals already being violent. Conservatives are angry but haven't gotten violent yet. Once conservatives get angry enough to turn to violence, you are right there at mutual violence, which tends to grow exponentially.

Imagine all the people, hoohooo, 7 billion dying in 100 years. Gonna happen, the end of everyon3s road. Its easy if you try, hoodoo

Now Doug Peterson has it, all players are getting it. Get people used to no football, starve the animals, fingers crossed
