There are plenty of stories from users here, in this thread, acknowledging people whom have either suffered, or died or contracted Coronavirus themselves. Coronavirus will be a standing issue for well into 2021, and possibly a portion of 2022, due to the lack of containment and precautionary measures from multiple governments worldwide. I have no idea what the death toll could reach, but I wouldn't be surprised if it hit 500,000 or 750,000 by the time a vaccine showed up, and those numbers are specifically for United States. We're already nearing 1,000,000 dead worldwide. Last edited by gold stinger; 09-24-2020 at 07:09 PM.. |

Re: Coronavirus
A bit of a rant here, but hear me out.
"Keeping the death toll below a certain number?" You can't be serious... That is a statement I've heard from a few US politicians on television, and I just couldn't find myself agreeing with it at all. The way I've interpreted that sentence is that the politicians are fine with people dying as long as the total number of deaths is lower than something. That means they're OK with anyone, including people they love, get killed by this life threatening disease. Who in their right minds would be alright with that?? My personal take on this is that we're all humans that deserve to live, even if we disagree with each other or hate each other. I feel that a better way of saying that would be "we have been trying our best to prevent deaths from the Coronavirus." Whether that statement is accurate or not is another story, but this is more respectful to everyone than the previous statement IMO. What do you guys think? |

Re: Coronavirus
tfw u need to make it known that coronavirus is mega dangerous because it kills people but u turn a blind eye and run mcdonalds ads and keep food insecurity a very real problem in the united states and obesity & heart disease runs rampant and it doesn't matter if tobacco companies market tobacco and other harmful products because that's not what brings ratings and those issues are harder to politicize but coronavirus is easy to politicize because of its origins and the suddenness of its new presence
i mean huh

Re: Coronavirus
it is impossible to set an acceptable amount of deaths and have nobody call you out on whatever number you set
it is extremely possible not to be so fucking weak minded that you view every single positive test result as a personal attack on you and therefore force a heretofore politically unaffiliated national organization to stop telling people to get tests because it makes you feel bad |

Re: Coronavirus
We have no cases where I live. However, it is still mandated that we wear a mask in all public places and honestly, I hope it stays like that for a long while. Wash your hands, wear a mask, keep your distance. Biggest thing honestly is people become complacent.

Re: Coronavirus
Now tell me how long one could remain immune from the Coronavirus upon recovery, and what's the worst outcome one could get when getting infected by it. Do you think herd immunity against the Coronavirus through infection is feasible?

Re: Coronavirus
Theres no such thing as herd immunity...a vaccine wont change a thing LOL
we have had a vaccine for the flu for how long now? 80 years. People get one every year and yet its still around and tens of thousands die a year. There is no way to stop it, the best we can do is prolong it which wont really do anything to save people. Besides, a vaccine takes 6-10 YEARS to develop. You guys really trust one thats only taken 6 month to come up with, and test...and expect it to actually work? No Everyone is going to get it eventually, but 99% of people will easily survive it. They will eventually get it again, and fight it off again. ETC We are literally in a New World Order and nobody can see this for some reason. There is no going back to the old ways. This is the new way of life, sadly.

Re: Coronavirus
That post had absolutely nothing to do with my last post...lmao
How does me wearing a mask have anything to do with vaccine talk? It was on the news that 30% of people who were asked about a vaccine said they wouldnt get one, even if it was free. How will they help if EVERYONE doesnt get one? Do you even have any idea how terrible they are for your body and whats in them!??! Ive never gotten one, not even for the flu and i literally dont get sick. I know thats not true for everyone but a vaccine wont change anything.

- Not having taken a flu vaccine - Not taking a flu vaccine again after the effects of the flu vaccine one's taken previously wears out - Not practicing good personal hygiene Not all vaccines are 100% effective, and they don't keep us protected forever, so we couldn't put the blame entirely on vaccines. We could do something to protect ourselves as well. Quote:
For now, this is quite true unfortunately. But if everyone works together and eradicate this lethal virus, perhaps we could go back to our old ways someday... Last edited by Andrew WCY; 09-25-2020 at 09:31 AM.. |
