Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Italy's mortality rate so far....

Is that a prayer? Or just wishful thinking?

I have not heard of any one of us volunteering to move to Snohomish Wa to sanitize hospital lobbies.

Italy is a Filthy Country! Check out how their sewage system works.
Sorry Jimbo, nothing like America. It’s pretty damn close to a third world schitt hole.

And while I’ll admit America has some schitty places like the inner cities, it’s nothing like Italy. Apples & Oranges.

I traveled all over Italy for three weeks last May. I don’t recognize the Italy that is described in many of these posts. It is a country in modern Europe.

aged Iranian?

Has nothing to do with volunteering in Washington St.
or NYC, or LA. Just truth.
Italy has an aging population of heavy smokers and drinkers. Those folks are gonna be more vulnerable and get the virus and die from complications. Just the way it is. Nothing more, nothing less. And the fact that old world countries don’t practice the personal hygiene that most Americans do.

And the fact that rural Americans aren’t packed together like sardines like folks in Italy in huge apartment type nursing homes they call “retirement” centers. And poor National Health Care is another huge factor.
Do you think that Italian Doctors are as qualified health care professionals as American Doctors? I’m betting not.

Okay....so the turds go straight into the ocean..........

That is about the most hysterical crap I've ever read. And it's BS.

Italy has almost 6x the population density of the USA, in addition to having a much older population (2nd oldest in the World) and higher percentage of smokers.

We will NEVER be Italy!

PREZACTLY!!!

The Italians killed Jesus.

And Fredo.

I lived in Italy for a while. In the afternoon the Senior towers would empty out for free wine, cigars and bocci ball. It would fill the entire park by the river. I would estimate +10k in the complex. The senior centers lined the river all the way to the city centre, 7 - 8 miles of towers.

Yep. NOTHING LIKE AMERICA.

But you can’t convince some of the knotheads here of that.

Trivia for the day:

There were no legions stationed at Judea province.
Pilate as praefecture of Judea only commanded
Six auxiliary cohorts recruited from non Romans
like the Samaritans.

one had to be a Roman citizen to be part of a legion,
(Auxilia only being attached to legions)
and the legions at the time were in Syria and
under the higher command of someone else.
Pilate came under the oversight of the governor
of Syria, who could decide to bring the legions
in if required.

the auxilia cohorts were based in Jerusalem, the
Antonia fortress, the old Palace and at Caesarea.
[Caesarea being Pilates primary residence]

UK Virus ALERT

The English are feeling the pinch in relation to the recent virus threat and have therefore raised their threat level from “Miffed” to “Peeved.” Soon, though, the level may be raised yet again to “Irritated” or even “A Bit Cross.”

The English have not been “A Bit Cross” since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies nearly ran out.

The virus has been re-categorized from “Tiresome” to “A Bloody Nuisance.” The last time the British issued a “Bloody Nuisance” warning level was in 1588, when threatened by the Spanish Armada.

The Scots have raised their threat level from “Pissed Off” to “Let's Get the Bastard.” They don't have any other levels. This is the reason they have been used on the front line of the British army for the last 300 years.

The French government announced yesterday that it has raised its alert level from “Run” to “Hide.” The only two higher levels in France are “Collaborate” and “Surrender.” The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France's white flag factory, effectively paralyzing the country's military capability.

Italy has increased the alert level from “Shout Loudly and Excitedly” to “Elaborate Military Posturing.” Two more levels remain: “Ineffective Combat Operations” and “Change Sides.”

The Germans have increased their alert state from “Disdainful Arrogance” to “Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs.” They also have two higher levels: “Invade a Neighbor” and “Lose.”

Belgians, on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual; the only threat they are worried about is NATO pulling out of Brussels.

The Spanish are all excited to see their new submarines ready to deploy. These beautifully designed subs have glass bottoms so the new Spanish navy can get a really good look at the old Spanish navy.

Australia, meanwhile, has raised its alert level from “No worries” to “She'll be alright, Mate.” Two more escalation levels remain: “Crikey! I think we'll need to cancel the barbie this weekend!” and “The barbie is cancelled.” So far, no situation has ever warranted use of the final escalation level.

LMAO !!!

Lol Kyhill.



Italy is not the US, but the average US citizen is in worse shape than his/her Euro counterpart. Lots of these obese folks with heart conditions won't make it through the virus, IMO

Sorry that facts get you hysterical.

SARS-CoV-2 is a novel virus. The definition of a novel virus is one that is previously unknown or unseen virus, for which there is very little immunity. Without immunity to a virus, if you're exposed to enough of it, well it's going to start reproducing within your body. Bingo - you've got SARS, or MERS, or H1N1, or the seasonal cold...

Just the facts, Jack.

Yea, I know. The standard fair was 3/4 of a bottle of the best wine imaginable and plate of dry salami for a ~$1.75. The dry meats were to die for, literally.
