1 million of them went to Texas.


They will vote to turn Texas into Detroit.





I'm starting to think it's genetic... Voting democrat is f*cking insane. They bring it everywhere they go and we don't want it.

What's to say the situation wouldnt be worse without the measures put in place tho?

I do agree that half ass lockdowns are dumb tho. Imo only FULL lockdowns actually work. Half ass lockdowns just prolongs the pandemic.

I'd rather do a full lockdown for 1 month and be covid free for a full year.. but of course I'd be called a communist.

We have roughly 150 million infections in the US this far, per CDC model, but I'm guessing it's closer to 100 million. None of the pseudoscience has done jack shit.

That’s not possible with that many people. Sure it worked with Australia but they were not in the middle of its peak or have nearly close the population density. They should just open up. It is proven to be nearly impossible to catch covid while being outside in the sun (which California has a lot of)

The sun and heat will kill a virus faster while it's on a surface, but if you're standing really close to someone that has it, heat wont make a difference.

It actually worked in a lot of places other than Australia. Cases do eventually come back tho, but when it does another hard lock down will stop it.

I always refer back to places like Hong Kong because I have relatives there. They are on a full lockdown right now with a couple hundred cases. I believe this is the 3rd lock down they has this year?

Basically once they hit around 50 daily cases they shut everything down for a couple weeks until 0 daily cases. Then everything's reopened fully. Couple months later covid comes back and they closed for 2 weeks. Back to 0 cases and they reopened for a couple months.

This sounds better to me than what we currently doing, and I'm sure businesses would prefer a couple weeks of lockdowns per year vs. 3 to 4 months of straight half ass lock downs that dont do shit.

Its ridiculous that we start lockdowns at a couple thousand daily cases a day. Just doesn't seem logical to me. But hey, me wanting to follow what Asian countries do makes me a communist right?

I also find it hilarious that it's been a full year of covid and Canada is still "discussing" if we should test people that arrive into this country from airplanes.

Makes you really wonder wtf goes on in these meetings that politicians have. "I think we should test people that come into our country" " yeah, good idea, let's think about it and discuss again next month" it's been a fking year.

Magic Scarecrows have been shown to be more successful lockdowns.

Zero deaths with Covid-19 in Cambodia so far.



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tqu9sdkBbes

South America uses military-enforced lockdowns and mandates masks. Result? #1 deaths/capita in the world.

North America and Europe use lockdowns and mask mandates too. Result? #2 and #3 deaths/capita in the world.

Cambodia is trying a much different approach: magic scarecrows (https://www.reuters.com/article/us-health-coronavirus-cambodia-scarecrow/cambodian-villagers-trust-magic-scarecrows-to-ward-off-coronavirus-idUSKBN2860LL).

Cambodia pop: 16.25 million; 0 covid deaths/mil

I'm saying that virus outcomes are largely not controlled by gov't NPIs like 'lockdowns', masks, school closures, bans on gatherings, travel bans, etc. Basically what decades of research on pandemics said in Feb 2020. We tossed aside the encyclopedia of pandemics in March, in April we burned it, and we've been re-writing it with pseudoscience ever since.

But do you really believe those places with no lockdowns have no covid deaths? Sounds to me like those places arent reporting them. When it comes down to it, do you trust our govt or theirs in reporting covid #s?

China #s are definitely shady, but then again, they find 10 cases in Beijing and locked millions of people in their homes. They also mandated testing of entire cities before reopening.

Their whole country is opened up and partying.

While there are some counting differences, it doesn't explain the major discrepancies (one big example is all the countries in South America). Nearly all 53 countries in Africa have reported very few deaths. Same with countries in Asia. South America, OTOH, has counted more deaths/capita than North America and EU.

I think in the US and some places in Europe we count them liberally, but a) I don't believe in conspiracy that the data is faked and b) yes, some undercounting, including in South America where they still have counted more deaths/capita than US/EU. And still, we are talking very small numbers, like 0.002% of the world population, median age 80 years old, has died with this disease this year.


China #s are definitely shady, but then again, they find 10 cases in Beijing and locked millions of people in their homes. They also mandated testing of entire cities before reopening.

Their whole country is opened up and partying.

The virus emerged last year in October. It spread around the world. China did crazy pseudoscience and fake shit starting January 23rd (https://twitter.com/MichaelPSenger/status/1307849676834603009). Perhaps if that "lockdown" of Wuhan happened in November 2019 and the virus hadn't spread to every country in the world, maybe we could attribute it to the pseudoscience. But 50+ countries in Africa have almost no deaths, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Cambodia, Laos, all with cases found and tiny death #s (in some cases zero deaths). Virus outcomes aren't controlled by NPIs.

It's mandatory, but the police thankfully won't enforce it. The guy jogging down the street without a mask isn't out there killing my grandparents. The only thing I've noticed from this new lockdown is it has inspired the people who were already going to gather and party to do it bigger and more defiantly renting out airbnb's. The bars in the tents at least provided a limited capacity space for people to go who were already going to go out.

I believe in wearing a mask indoors but I dont think its necessary outdoors. Again, I think these half ass lockdowns are a waste of time and they're ruining lives. We should have just done a FULL lockdown for a month in the beginning and kept all borders closed. That would have brought the cases down to 0.

Virus comes back? Catch it early on and do another full lockdown for 2 weeks. That's what a lot of countries have done and it worked.

Also, wtf is a point of a curfew?? Limiting hours of when people can go outside will just pack more people in the same place at 1 time. Curfews are the dumbest shit you can do in a pandemic.

Oh, and how will you enforce stopping 330 million people from interacting with each other?

Oh really, Japan did a full lockdown every time their cases rose? Cambodia? Kenya? Nope. Not even locked down as much as California, lol.

And as for your lockdown idea, read my post above.

There were at least a million infections in the US by end of March 2020. This wasn't going to be stopped and every scientist knew it. That's why the consensus was NOT to do lockdowns and we needed to ramp up hospital capacity because we would have roughly 10 million to 48 million hospitalizations. Luckily we haven't even hit 1 million with a rate less than seasonal flu, so none of it was needed in the first place.

Same. Been wearing a mask 40-50 hours/wk since late March / early April. It's about 95% compliance in public places in CA, just as the polls would suggest. I was at a national park in CA recently and I think ~90%+ had masks on... outside, hiking/biking.. no joke

If a country does a full lockdown in a whole year for the sake of eradicating the virus completely, then there's a big chance that lots of people will die from starvation instead unless their government can supply them food and many of their basic needs, although that is very far from being feasible.

Whereas we have no end in sight unless we vaccinate everyone.

Isnt it ironic that our "freedom" fighting mentality will eventually force mandated vaccines on us?

It's a matter of fighting for the will to live.

If it can be balanced out (up to 50% in lockdowns only), then why not. After all, people work almost daily to satisfy their needs everyday. They can't just stay home to stand by and do nothing 24/7 all of a sudden.

And i believe they will prioritize in giving the vaccines to those who are most vulnerable by it, to the ones living in areas where the virus became dense until there is no transmission anymore, as in completely none.

This is what the world is trying to achieve rn so not everyone will get it for most instances.

The needs of the many only outweigh the needs of the few, if the many are bettering the world, not destroying it by turning it into a communist prison system demanding everyone follow in line.

Maybe this whole civil war thing is needed. Let's face it, the world is overpopulated and in the U.S.'s case, the midwest doesn't want to be China. All of these democrat rat box cities want to tell southern midwest country mountain desert people how to live. We good, bruh. We ain't want it.

Corona would be under control. Let’s face it. America is in the situation it’s in because it was unwilling to do the necessities early on. Just went to a concert Saturday. Even tho we have no local spread everybody still wore masks. It’s about disease prevention - not doing these things when the virus is already everywhere and out of control.

Trillions of wealth is being transferred via DC to special interests, freedom is deemed non essential, tens of millions of healthy people have been effectively placed on house arrest indefinitely, QOL has declined for tens of millions, millions of children have lost a year of school, millions of people have had medical appointments/surgeries canceled, we've destroyed our society, and small businesses are being slaughtered. Half of black owned small businesses will be closed forever due to the gov't. Honestly, outside of being completely clueless, I don't know why everyone's not complaining.

Stop believing China's lockdowns (Wuhan) did jack shit other than make other western countries copy them (starting w/ Italy). Magic scarecrows in Cambodia were far more successful than China. Cambodia has had zero deaths and they used magic scarecrows. Even Uganda did better than China and they don't social distance or "full Wuhan-style" BS either.

The only way a lockdown would have worked in the US is if they did a 100% lockdown starting September 2019 and from there let literally 0 people into the country. Impossible.

Just fyi China didn't do a national lockdown of 1.4 billion people for one month. They did a wild lockdown performance in Wuhan 3 months after the virus emerged and started spreading around the world.

I never said what we are doing here in the US is better than what China did. China did pseudoscience in a few spots for 1 month, then opened up. We've been doing pseudoscience for 10 months, and probably for many more months after.

I'd rather do what Belarus did, or whichever country had the least amount of restrictions in the name of Covid-19.


So for exactly 1 month we will shut down pharmacies, nursing homes, elderly care facilities, veterinarians, airplanes, airports, buses, dentists, hospitals, contact tracers, administrators, urgent care centers, doctor offices, cancer screenings, roads, everyone in the energy sector, fire dept, ambulances, plumbing, waste disposal, public transportation, dept of defense, police, CIA, FBI, NSA, DEA, ATF, ICE, grocery stores, agriculture, suppliers, transporters, distributors, warehouses, IT, mfg of medical supplies, medical supply stores, banks, nuclear facilities, Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, ... you serious Clark?

Oh, and how will you enforce stopping 330 million people from interacting with each other? Will there be drones outside of everyone's house making sure they don't visit their neighbor or heaven forbid help their grandma around the house? Remember, the contact tracers think roughly 75% of transmission occurs within homes.

I know you're from Canada, but I was asking what you think the US should have done since April.

So just to be clear here... with millions of infections already and the virus spreading like wildfire in the US, your "all of us at home for a month" lockdown includes 330 million people as described in my post above?

Oh, and how will you enforce stopping 330 million people from interacting with each other?

Looking at the hospital data this year, I'm shocked by the overwhelming support from the Left for Trump's National State of Emergency to 'prevent hospitals from being overwhelmed.'



I don't think Trump's Coronavirus Task Force helped at all.

Per CDC estimates, we have approximately 138,000,000 infections so far in the US. This is more infections than we predicted without the pseudoscientific lockdowns and masks. :eek:

It's quite surprising to see so many people continue to support Trump's National State of Emergency, his Coronavirus Task Force, and all their disastrous policies.

You assume members of the military/cops will fight for the Democrats against the Trump supporters. But if there was actually a civil war, you know how many would turn on the democrats to take out the left and put Trump back in?

I obviously don't believe it's feasible but I believe in a forced scenario of picking sides if there were a real honest civil war.... The military wouldn't fight the people to protect the democrats, they'd just eliminate the democrat politicians.
