Well you need to factor in the fact that there are shit ton more white people than there are black people. Something like 60% of the US population is white and 15% is black. It's a number game, a larger percentage of black people are shot and killed than white people. |

Why? Contact tracing is one of the strongest defenses we have. If you're ok with them taking you credit card you should be ok with them taking down you name and number. What if someone was infect while you were there? Wouldn't you like to know so you can get tested or at least avoid high risk people? Of all the things to be upset about, that shouldn't be one of them. What, do you think they are going to give your number to telemarketers? Do you think they are going to call you in the middle of the night and ask what the stars are made out of? Also the mayor you are talking about died. |

Use google and find some articles to educate yourself on what it is. Robin Williams was a decent looking, loved, well respected by his peers, and a very talented human being. He killed himself. Do you think he did that just because he was sad? Depression isn't being sad or disappointed.

| Sewage 06/02/20 11:44:03 PM #5 | iPhone_7 posted... De Blasio & Cuomo have done a terrible job, not just with this but the pandemic. Except this is bullshit if you look at facts. You can't just look at total number of infected and say they failed because the fact is with a city as densely populated as NYC and mass transit being almost mandatory, there was no preventing a significant loss of life. Yeah they should have locked down sooner, but outside of that they have made mostly the right decisions. Reality is with that city even handling it perfectly things would have been shitty. New York is one of only a few states to see consistent declines in deaths, hospitalizations, and new infections. They also lead the way in testing, doing any where from 50,000 to 70,000 tests a day. They also have more tracers than any other state in the country. Was Cuomo perfect? No, but they are further down the slope than any other state. Even California, the state that shut down first, is seeing a rise in everything while New York sees lows that weren't seen since before the pandemic. This is factually provable, not just some baseless accusation. https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ Pick a state and look at their graphs and see them rise while New York falls. |

But part of that is because of how New York City is. It's densely populated and buses and subway use is almost mandatory. I agree they shouldhave shut down sooner, but once they did start taking it seriously they did a good job. All the stats show the city heading in the right direction at a rate better than most other cities in the country. lilJoe457 posted...
You're someone who still calls this the flu and downplays it with bogus information. Why should anyone give a shit about your opinion?

It was said from the start summer will curb some of the cases not because of the heat, but because people will be outdoors more. Enough are also wearing masks and in some of the cities they aren't doing too badly when it comes to the virus. Plus its a small number when you really think of it. |

You can be outraged over what happened with George Floyd and be upset with innocent people being beaten. This shit isn't mutually exclusive. Saying this is disgusting isn't people looking for a reason to justify police, it means innocent people shouldn't be fucking beaten to a pulp for no reason. |

I know some people are saying "not all protesters" and fine, there are a lot of good protesters out there, but I've seen now a dozen posters try and act like beating a man half to death isn't that big of a deal since the cause is just. Stop condoning violence out of fear that people will think that you don't care. You can be outraged as to what happened to George Floyd, be for mass protests, and still be against senseless beatings that leaves men like that shop keeper in Dallas a mangled mess. There is nothing that makes instances like that justifiable. |

| Sewage 05/28/20 9:44:59 PM #15 | https://www.covidexitstrategy.org/ Why do people act like New York is doing poorly wit this virus? They have been as good as any state. Cuomo is a jackass and he made an at best questionable decision with nursing homes, but that's sadly what we were fighting. We needed hospital beds opened up, it's that simple. He got the ball rolling late and made a stupid decision in a situation where there were no good decisions, but outside of that New York has been the model of how states should be handling this. Yeah they have a lot of death, but they also have NYC. I mean you take that off and it makes NY state look even better. Whatever metric you want to use, New York has done as well as any state out there. And now they have tons of testing sites over the entire state, tons of tests, they have a tracer team that surpasses anything in this country. They just did over 60,000 tests the other day yesterday. Think about that. Of those 60k, only about 1000 tested positive. Cuomo is a pig and I would never vote for him in a presidential race outside of against Trump, but New York has this shit under control no matter which way you slice it. The fact that they are doing it while having NYC means lol anyone actually talking trash about how they have handled it overall. |

Because not many states have a city like New York city where people are piled up on top of each other and public transit being the primary way around town.

| Topic | 30 year old dies of coronavirus |
| Sewage 05/27/20 12:06:37 AM #8 | The new thing is to pretend that having an underlying condition is the same as not expected to live a normal life span. People with underlying conditions live to ripe old ages all the time, having one doesn't make the death any less sad or any less avoidable. You could unknowingly have one right now. But either way, not even the biggest deniers deny that young people can die from this, it's just less common. Tom me Jack Allard should scare younger people more, and he lived. He was a division one athlete who is probably healthier and fitter than anyone on this board, and he needed a ventilator and was put into a coma while almost dying from it. Being less likely doesn't mean it's not possible, and even if you likely survive it there is a possibility for life long problems. Even asymptomatic people are being found with lung damage from this. |

| Topic | When will the second wave of COVID hit? |
| Sewage 05/24/20 2:30:01 PM #12 | The expected second wave is likely this fall or winter, though I've seen some suggest next spring. How bad will it get? Who knows. No one really knows at the moment, though there are three outcomes most agree are the possibilities. One is what just happened, requiring another nationwide lock down. Another is just random small bursts across the country that don't require any lock downs but will need to monitored. The last is hot spots in large populous areas that require those places to shut down but not the entire country. The first option is especially scary when you factor in the normal flu season, that will make it that much worse. No one knows which outcome will happen, despite what anyone says each one is just as likely as the other at the moment. Experts say to prepare for the worst, but that doesn't mean the worst is the most likely outcome, it's just to so we aren't blindsided if it were to happen. |

Come the fall we will have more treatment options, more tests, more tracers, and more safety measures. People who think an entire country wide lockdown is inevitable are overreacting, we can possibly avoid that and not have it be because the government doesn't care. The more we know about this virus, the easier it gets to fight. We've learned so much in two months, that's not going to stop. Come the second wave in the fall or winter, we will know how to optimally fight it. |

This was always going to eventually go down, you can't say because things don't go up after preventive measures are taken off doesn't mean they didn't work. Also the idea of the lockdown was to not overwhelm the health care system. Even with the lockdown we had overcrowding in hospitals and massive supply shortages, imagine that without measures. Common sense says it would have been worse if we did nothing. More people getting exposed means more infections means more that may need to stay in the hospital, it's that simple. |

People are starting to be around their family and friends, people have been going to grocery stores all along and to other essential services. What is the big deal about opening a barbershop? We need to be sensible about this. People will continue to catch this and we simply can't keep our country closed for a year. No one is suggesting that, but maybe we need to shut down for a few weeks again. I agree a year long shut down is impossible, that would cause mass devastation. Hopefully when the second wave hits we have more treatments, and at the very least we won't be caught completely off guard like we were this time. States will also already have testing and tracers in place. There is actually more reason to be optimistic about how we will handle the second wave than pessimistic. One big issue though is that the next one will be during flu season, and that compounds the problem and maybe makes it even more neccassary for things to shut down in certain areas like NYC. |

Even if we shut down again people still have to go and get supplies to live on a weekly basis. Even medical staff are getting infected with all the precautions they take. This virus isnt going to disappear no matter how long we lock down. Except none of this is true what so ever. There won't be anywhere near 100% of the population getting infected. It will take years for even 50% of the population to get infected. Also you are using medical professionals of evidence that safety protocols don't work? You mean the people who have a job that requires to risk exposure of every second at work? That's your defense? It's a known fact that length of exposure increases odds of getting infected. I am shocked I even need to say this, and even then these people aren't all getting infected. That right there is evidence against what you say, because the people with the longest length of exposure aren't all getting sick because of safety precautions. Fact is Trump has no say in it anyways. He cried the entire time states shut down on their own. Also it's not a certainty that it will have a higher death rate. No expert has said that as an absolute fact. It's one of many outcomes. They also say it's possible we only have small bursts and won't have to shut down. That's another possibility. There is a wide range of possibility, some extremely scary and some very tame with a bunch of shit in the middle, when experts speak of these scary scenarios, they admit that it's worst case scenario but that we need to prepare like it's the most likely outcome so we aren't caught with our pants down around our ankles. No expert has said definitively what the second wave will be like, because no one really knows until it happens. It could be a slap on the wrist, it could be a shotgun blast to the chest. |

And death is only one of many outcomes. Did you know it's being discovered asymptomatic patients have had damage to their lungs from this? People without any symptoms have lung damage, now imagine catching it and having a hard time with it but still surviving. That's can produce long term health problems. You also could give it to someone high risk and they could die. Being high risk doesn't mean they are on their death bed. Being over 50 doesn't mean their life starts having less value. There are also tons of people who have underlying conditions that they are unaware of. My cousin has an atrial fibrillation and apparently he's had it for at least 10 years before being diagnosed, that is considered an underlying condition. It's not a big deal all things considered, but it is something that puts him at a greater risk. It's not as black and white as you make it sound. |

| Sewage 05/20/20 11:36:25 PM #34 | Shocked that still no Trumper is defending this. I mean two tried, but it was pretty easy to tear apart their nonsense. Fact is we should be listening to experts. We should be talking to as many experts as we can, and if some happen to agree with Trump on reopening, then that is perfectly fine. We need to hear from experts from both sides of the argument to make the best possible decisions. The problem here is that listening to all the experts isn't the same as actively going out of your way to look for the ones saying what you want to hear, that's flat out wrong. That's how we have people who are against vaccinations. The thousands of experts saying we need vaccines don't matter, its the dozen experts that say vaccines aren't worth the risk that matters. If a pitcher tears his elbow apart and the first doctor says he needs surgery, the team will always get a second opinion from another qualified doctor, what they don't do is go through dozens of doctors until they find the one that tells them to just rub some dirt on it and get him back out there. That is essentially what is being done, but instead of an elbow it's human lives. |
