Most of the people that have died from this were already in LTC (long-term care). 62 % in fact. Isolate them and the healthcare workers that come into contact them; not everyone else. Only 7 deaths have occurred in people aged 19 to 39 and not one single death of anyone below the age of 19. Otherwise healthy people are not dying from this. That is a fact. The whole lockdown was to "flatten the curve" and prevent the healthcare system from being over-whelmed. It's not overwhelmed here. Not even close. There are about 1,000 people in hospital due to COVID and less than 200 of them are in intensive care on ventilators. This in a province of 15 million people. 200 Critically ill people in a population of 15M. That is 0.00001 % Yep; better extend the lockdown for another few months.... |

It's now about "get Trump out of office." Actually, it's ALWAYS been about "get Trump out of office."

There is a reason why we don't have a vaccine for "the common cold", which by the way, is a Coronavirus. It is a mutating virus, and even if we do develop an effective vaccine, by the time it is manufactured and distributed in quantities that would have significant impact on the populace, the virus will most likely have mutated so that the existent vaccine would no longer be effective. |

When shithole countries aren't locked down and doing fine, you know this is all political as shit. And every nurse/doc/whatever in scrubs on TikTok should apologize to the American people for being total twats. |

Hell, they’ve already said they won’t start regular school in September here.

Maybe you haven't been keeping up with current events, but that won't help you much. At the moment, they are less aggressive at grabbing your guns, but I don't expect that to last much longer.
Kentucky used to be a great place that I used to visit from time to time. Unfortunately, visiting numerous times has allowed me to see the decline and decay that has happened there over the last third of a century. Sad. Very sad. |

I wonder how much this will effect the price of real estate in LA County? I would imagine that people who can, especially renters, will flee the county, maybe even flee the state. There will probably be a whole shitload of evictions and foreclosures, too.
