Like I've told everyone I know, I hope I'm wrong but I haven't been so far and there are just way too many unknowns to think we will be able to handle this with little or no permanent damage to the global economy.

this virus is extremely contagious but thankfully many people are completely immune to it, but i hope it doesnt combine with another deadly pathogen because then we really are in trouble. As it is right now the world economy is in going to be on hold until it infects everybody, if the antibodies do provide immunity but the antibodies fade then this thing will be with us forever. If the common cold is still with us with no cure then covid 19 is also. People have to mentally prepare for the possibility of massive issues in the future and to get rid of the illusion of society going back to where we were in 2019.

Spanish Flu died out after what, two years? We're barely six months into COVID-19.

Tbh, I think we are completely fucked. I don't think we will be able to make an effective vaccine for it. Society in poorer countries will start to collapse first. Looting and violence will start. Eventually richer countries will start to collapse as well.

I've been following this virus since mid January and have been saying then that I think this going to get really bad. I really hope I'm just being a doomer but my gut feeling hasn't been wrong about this so far.

Will you please shut the f*** up. I remember back in February people were saying the national guard was going to be called in and Trump would declare martial law. I also saw a bunch of other people here spewing a bunch of s*** about things that never occurred.

Do you sit in your parents basement all day coming up with all this s***? Stop being a fear monger, get out of the basement and go outside and get some fresh air.,Amd don't forget your mask and hazmat suit.

iGarbage posts like his the reason I barely come over here Anymore. I bought into all the garbage when this virus started and got me scared.

A few months later and I'm over this virus. Nobody I know has gotten it and that's just fine with me. I think some of you spend way to much time on here.

I've been working every day (most of the time without a mask) since the pandemic began, been still taking my dog out and going grocery shopping (where no one wears masks), been to a party (no masks) and a wedding (very few masks), haven't gotten sick. One of my coworkers got it and came back two weeks later as healthy as ever. I'm over this thing, too. Tired of isolated basement dwellers telling me I'm going to kill everyone.

Sorry to burst your bubble but 117k people have died thus far; and, that number is going up and will likely skyrocket because of the people who are just "oh so over it!"
His post is drivel.

If they actually did call in National Guard and do a hard lockdown for a month, you would still have a chance of outbreaks (like China now) but risk would be at a minimum.

It would be tens of people dying daily in the country, not hundreds or thousands.

LOL that's rich. I was less than 600 miles from the original epicentre at day 1. I fled two different countries due to the virus and lockdowns. Pretty hard to be doing that from my parents basement.

There arent gonna be anymore lockdowns. Like healthcare system would have to be close to collapsing before they did another lockdown in this country

Not on a national scale, but there will have to be localized ones. Arizona and Texas can't keep this pace going without overloading their hospitals.

Coronavirus: Dexamethasone proves first life-saving drug

https://www.bbc.com/news/health-53061281

A cheap and widely available drug can help save the lives of patients seriously ill with coronavirus.
The low-dose steroid treatment dexamethasone is a major breakthrough in the fight against the deadly virus, UK experts say.

It seems like its happening more in the south patk of the state too. From what I've read, its anywhere from 6 to 13 counties causing that spike, including Los Angeles County.

Coronavirus: Dexamethasone proves first life-saving drug

https://www.bbc.com/news/health-53061281

In the trial, led by a team from Oxford University, about 2,000 hospital patients were given dexamethasone and compared with more than 4,000 who were not.
For patients on ventilators, it cut the risk of death from 40% to 28%.
For patients needing oxygen, it cut the risk of death from 25% to 20%.

Thats terrific news.

Wasn't that the original goal of flattening the curve though? The idea that most all of us were going to get the virus anyway, and we just need to time it so that the medical resources are available.

I'm not supporting the openings though...still scared af of the virus

Then locking down is REALLY pointless now since all those people are getting grouped together in a small space.
