Thanks for enlightening me there Dr Magnum. Oddly enough though, I personally know of 2 under 70 that have died. Neither had other health issues. Another friends father is in the hospital now on a ventilator and not doing well at all. Have had 2 co-workers hospitalized, one in his mid 40's, other mid 50's. Thats 5 people that I personally know that have died or been seriously ill in just the past few months. I don't know anyone ever being hospitalized or dying from the common cold or the flu.


OK...5 out of approximately 330,000,000 people in our country. You certainly have a great sample. I am not the one that came to that conclusion. It was the CDC.

Come on Dr Mag, you're smart enough to get your internet medical degree, you should be smart enough to figure out what I was saying. Maybe the tin foil is wrapped to tight on your head. While I have a fair amount of friends, the number is a little less than 330 million. That is 5 out of the people I personally know. Compared to zero deaths/hospitalizations for the cold/flu with people I personally know.
