Amazing the difference in numbers after only 8 days.
Where is the guy from the US who was belittling the issue?
It’s crazy, especially in New York. I really hope that somebody figures out a treatment soon. One good friends step father just passed away tonight from the virus. It’s starting to hit a little close to home. And me being a “essential” worker placed me and my family at risk.
Everybody be vigilant and stay safe my friends!
He’s gone to a party at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

On another USA forum I was banned because (their words) “procuring false alarm” to the public LOL. This was around 10 of March, not even a month ago.
It was so evident the mistakes they were doing in all USA, well now they know

Don’t worry. I’m still here.
We still aren’t under any apocalypse. My area has less than 100 cases out of a population of 651,000 people. My county has 4 cases out of a population of 43,000 people.
And yet, even now with all the hysteria, over 99% of the US population still doesn’t have the virus (311,000 / 331,000,000). if you do the math for the county where I live then that number is even higher.
And while any death is a tragedy to those close to them and a concern for society in general, even with the number of deaths right now it hasn’t ever added a half percent increase in the death rate for the US (10,000 deaths compared to 2.8 million deaths from other causes).
If I lived in New York City or New Jersey I would definitely feel differently. Or even in any other big city where people are crowded in like farm animals. But the vast majority of the US isn’t a big city like New York. Not everyone lives in an area that is seeing the same results.
I never said it wasn’t a concern. And things could (will…) get worse and everyone has to take responsibility to protect themselves.
Just trying to keep the numbers in perspective and the potential panic in check. If people are freaking out right now with these relatively low numbers then how are things going to be later when (if…) the S really does HTF?
Mankind has survived way worse things than this.
And yet you were the one who said I should have been put in prison for basically saying “everybody just needs to take a deep breath and calm down”.
The irony is thick.
I agree with this…

well then do nothing and get 2.000.000 death and up, only in the USA.
Good luck, and yes to me your recommendations are punishable as manslaughter case, so you may expect a visit by police enforcement and a trial initiated by a Genral Attorney also in the USA. 20 days ago you all laughed at my point as being absurd, I don’t think you laugh so much now.
In any case, if you are so convinced of your theories, at least go and shake hands to coronavirus patients as Boris Johnson did, to prove your points.
p.s. BTW are you a no-vax activist? I hope all those people be coherent with their ideas and when a vaccine is coming out they will refuse to get it … lets’ put another theory at test: DARWINISM

no you should be put to prison because on a public forum you were/are saying that the coronovirus is no big deal, and you claimed that the data provided by politicians (which was data provided by 99,999% of virologist worlwide) were false

Again you are spreading FALSE FALSE information. Those are positive TESTED patients out of not a big amount of tested persons
I would not be surprised if the infected people amount in the US are in the 5 to 10 million range ALREADY, and a lot ALSO in rural america.
Please note that many of those people will be asymptomatic or feeling as a mild flue, but they WILL infect 2 to 4 people around them without social distancng (which in turn will infect 2 to 4 peoaple and so on), so the virus can EASILY reach 20-40 million with mild social distancing, and basically ALL population (300 million) without any social distancing in few weeks, and then you have an ecatomb of the more fragile part of the population.
This is NOT a mild/common flue (it is for some part of the population, but for millions will be death for sure)
This is NOT an hysteria case
This IS VERY SERIOUS ISSUE EVERYWHERE even in rural areas
Without extreme social distancing measures (as implemented finally now almost everywhere) there will be MILLIONS and MILLIONS of deaths
I don’t understand what additional proof skeptic people wants? In the UK they were skeptical and now the future King, the Prime Minister, the Health Minister got the virus … and the PM is risking his life now, who knows if he will survive … LOL (laugh to not cry)

Wow!
I’m fairly speechless. And that’s saying something if you’ve seen many of my posts.
if 10 million have it and none of them have any symptoms then i think that destroys your “this virus will kill millions of people” hysteria. if 10 million people have it but it’s only killed 10,000 then the numbers don’t seem quite so bad as what’s put out as expected numbers. if 10 million have it then that means that over 96% of people never show any symptoms. and that means the death rate is closer to .1% just like the flu.
If all those millions had it like you say then the deaths in the US would be WAY higher right now if the DR was as it’s portrayed to be. (which I believe is in the 2-3% ballpark). So that would be around 200,000 - 300,000 dead versus the real deaths at only 12,000.
Remember you can’t have it both ways. It’s either stupidly outrageously lethal because everyone who gets it will die but not that many people have it yet (but they will!) or it’s fairly mild like the flu because so many people have it that we don’t even know about because they don’t have symptoms and never will.
I never said that what the politicians said were false. I asked what they were basing the hysteria on to say the things that they were saying. I don’t think that was an unreasonable question at the time.
I really hate to put a damper on your apparent glee at my getting thrown in prison to rot (or worse) but I don’t think i’ll be waiting around in fear of that knock on my door in the night to take me off to any re-education camp.
4 billion people worldwide are in a lockdown, and you continue talking BULLSHIT.
You are either playing or are plain stupid.
