  1. CDC is estimating between 24,000-62,000 deaths. Now keep in mind a portion of this was under the same circumstances and self isolation we are doing now. Now I'm NOT downplaying the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic I'm just trying to put some perspective to it. I'm not advocating changes to self isolation or anything. At this point I fully support the efforts to stop the spread. In that just short of 6 month period we lost on average 4,000-10,000 people a month to the season flu. I'm really surprised our HC system can keep up with that if most of them required ICU/Ventilators. https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/preliminary-in-season-estimates.htm
  2. Iowa still doing pretty good. 336 confirmed cases out of 3.2 million people is .01% (.0001) with 4 deaths which is an incredibly small percentage of the population (.000001). https://coronavirus.iowa.gov/ Stay away from our state!
  3. You can't without military intervention. People will continue to flee hot spots in massive numbers. If they don't self quarantine it will never end. Even if they do do it the numbers will rise in non hot spot areas.
  4. You mean he doesn't affect every single aspect of the economy or just the bad stuff?
  5. For the most part smartly stayed away from here.
  6. Trump literally could go from hospital to hospital and cure people and you people would still complain. https://www.instagram.com/p/B-TNS4aFmTMG015NAqDlxrg2PGbMlWUqu2Pu7s0/?igshid=1xxl4bgmv2z3k
  7. Trump himself is literally making us sick. I've heard it all now.
  8. Damn Arctic Cat riders.
  9. Well Im not a teenage girl so little fake drama like this doesn't interest me.
  10. Guess I don't pay attention to inter forum drama.
  11. Probably.....easy to not take the chance and take Tylenol.
  12. Got sent a video from a nurse friend of mine. Information is coming out that for some reason it can make the virus much, much worse. A significant portion of the cases on ventilators the patients had taken ibuprofen for symptoms. Probably nothing but worth passing it on.
  13. I can't start watching GoT's. I won't get up until the season's over.
  14. In no particular order. Give 5 suggestions. 1. Lonesome Dove 2. Chernobyl 3. Band of Brothers 4. True Detective (Season 1) 5. John Adams 6. Jeramiah Johnson
  15. Couldn't get into it. Didn't finish season 1.
  16. Care to show me a state that's closed down liquor stores? Not sure closing gun stores in Mississippi is a good idea either.
