  • Yeah this shit is crazy. When you look at the numbers it doesnt seem THAT deadly. I guess its because its so infectious is whats causing the response? Maybe they arent telling us everything? Idk whole thing seems weird. Im just greatful im still working.

    • It's not that deadly, it's fast-spreading and also deadly for those who are compromised. We don't have the capacity to handle the 1/5 who require hospitalization or the 3-4% who will die from this, all within less than three months. There's a lot to explain because this isn't just one thing, it's a domino effect. From essential workers to those who need doctors for other things not even covid related, everyone will feel some pain from this or will know someone who will. It seems weird because it is weird.

      • This is gonna absolutely WRECK the economy. The economy does good when people are making alot of money and spending alot of money. Everyone is gonna be out of money soon and wont have any money to spend. Im praying it wont be another great depression.

      • But Zombs, because it spread so fast, it's all about flattening the curve. When compromised patients start dying at home because there are no hospital beds, the infection rate accelerates. This happened in Italy. The death rate jumped to 10%, when it would have been 3.4% under flat curve conditions.

        Flattening the curve is the issue.

        • Yep. Not sure how easy that'll be at this point, but it should still be the main focus.
