Science is supposed to be absolute. When it isn't, listen to the 3% not the 97%. Be fully informed.

I wore a fish net stocking over my head when I went to the market this morning. I covered my nose and mouth just like the state directive ordered. Weave was a little loose.

Probably because no one has interjected politics into the subject yet, but give it time I sure there will be someone who can`t resist the temptation to try to tie politics and the pandemic together as some kind of sinister political plot. There are already a bunch of pandemic/political conspiracies on the internet to choose from.

You do have to wonder why the flip side of the numbers get absolutely no discussion...there's a survivability rate, using their numbers of something on the order of 96%. A death rate of ~4%. If you take the cases against the US population, it's a miniscule number.
But you don't get that part of it. In the end does the economy being tanked hurt this President leading up to an election? Sure it does. Is it a sinister plot? I'm sure it's been discussed.

Too, masks are a lot like gun control...it's about control, not the mask (or the gun). There's a serious layer to it that is about compliance with mandates.

I think it's good policy...mask up but enforcement by fines and/or jail time is tyrannical behavior.

And in Kansas during the worst of the shut down and stay at home orders you could get an abortion, get drunk, but not go to church. Just like now in NY...you can protest and burn shit down, but if you have a concert we'll shit the bed over it

Ask yourself why, Vietnam, a virtual third world country - in a “sunbelt” has had ZERO Covid deaths. It’s either a crappy diet of a bunch of unhealthy American people sitting around in central air, passing it around or...the numbers are (and mis coded death cause) is horse shit. But one thing is certain, by November it HAS to be worse. No matter what. Then, if the mummified remains of Biden ‘wins’ it will magically disappear. At the very least, it will cease to be such a big deal. As will BLM.

Had it in June but it wasn't worse than a cold and in no way do we deserve lockdowns or masks over it.

Two days of feeling down, one day of feeling like turd, then two days of getting better. Ripped thru my daughters boyfriends household then ours the same week. Infection rate moves fast for a flu virus.

The lingering effect was to make me buy absolutely nothing chinese ever again.

Are you being sarcastic or are not able to read between the lines. There's plenty of virus deniers here. At this point it doesn't matter that it didn't have to be this bad. We are where we are and blaming someone won't make it go away. My plant announced layoffs will start this week. I hate seeing coworkers losing their jobs insurance and benefits it hurts I've been there many times myself.

Virus deniers? I see people objecting to the overblown response to something that has proven to be no more lethal than the annual flu. Case in point, shutting down your plant.

I know you're a little slow so ill try to explain. The plants not shutting down we have zero covid cases. People are getting laid off because the economy is tanking.

So the question now becomes, why is the economy tanking?

Force reduction due to unnecessary fears which result in economy tanking. It's a plandemic not pandemic.
