FWIW, if the projections were that zero shutdowns would only lead to 30-60k deaths, I'd probably be OK with not shutting down anything. It would be a crazy ass flu season though

The original Imperial College study projected that severe social distancing actions, that were in place for 18 months, would result in halving the number of people that died as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. I believe this included non-coronavirus people who died due to overwhelmed health systems as well.

literally all of this is wrong

Yeah, at second look, the severe social distancing for 18 months reduction is much greater than 50% in their projections.

the 50% reduction was using what sounds like less severe social distancing than what a lot of the country is seeing for 3 months (4 month severe social distancing for high risk groups). And it explicitly said its death calculations didn't account for deaths due to an overwhelmed health system.

Yes, I didn't argue with your all of this is wrong statement.

Seems like this thing is disproportionately killing POC, in this country. Anyone got numbers on this?

First of all I had no idea that General Honore has twitter, that's amazing now I'm following.

I love that man, he is the personification of leadership. I was dead wrong about the federal government's capability of distributing these supplies. This was well put and it's unfortunate we have the crew of eff ups managing this while General Honore is sitting at home.

it's weird because you'd think that turning everything over to the army, letting them figure it out and then taking the credit would be right up trump's alley.

He loves the generals, but he spends most of his time talking to Jared Kushner and CEO’s so it was never likely.

I feel like she probably wasn't doing this because she was particularly alarmed after the meeting. Rather, it was just an ordinary day of insider trading that unexpectedly blew up.

Remember when K-Dub tried to say this wasn't a big deal because a large portion of the deaths were concentrated in the single nursing home in Washington? Yeah

60 million Americans caught H1N1 and it killed 12,000. Somehow we weathered that storm without destroying our economy.

US death toll for COVID still under 100 (more than half of which from a cluster of nursing homes in Washington state), reported cases under 5,000 (let’s speculate 100k unreported). Meanwhile we’re plunging our country into a depression. Great work, chicken littles.

He also told us that Trump's "hoax" comment was taken out of context.

McDonald's sells billions of burgers every year. Surely they would have no trouble filling an order for 1,000 cheeseburgers if you were to just drive up and place it.

We have a winning analogy. Especially if you pare it with hundred of other MacDonald's have to fill that same order at the same time.

This talking point was discussed and slapped away a month ago, same stupid crap dax and ksuw tried before this was proven moronic and they disappeared, you're a month behind that, congrats.

My God maybe the Governor of Georgia wasn't lying about not knowing how COVID is spread until Wednesday. These MAGA idiots just may be this dumb, I guess that's what happens when you only read and listen to MAGA sources.
