When Fauci talks the stock market dives.
When Trump talks optimistically the market responds

Perhaps they should only talk every other day?

Until a vaccine is created for this particular virus, tensions will be high. The next virus could be worse.

For myself, it's a bit of a wake up call regarding personal health and prevention. I should probably start getting flu and pneumonia shots in the future.

I think we will have to compare the death rate over the period, per 100K people, over the average. An uptick might be valid CV19 effect.

Lot's of people already at death's door, who wouldn't make it another year regardless.

Then again, traffic fatalities will be down. Domestic killing and suicides will be up.

Yep. And I’m definitely concerned!

But then again, I don’t live in NYC. Those of us in Flyover Country still feel relatively safe so far.

But this constant throwing out of numbers of how many will die is what’s thrown this Country into a terrible PANIC.

ALL the hoarding and financial ruin of our economy is being driven by this crapola Gloom & Doom that’s repeated by the Fake News Media every 5 minutes. It’s getting REALLY OLD.

It's absolutely feasible.

Its just math.

Why it matters: Fauci has been the coronavirus task force's most outspoken advocate for emergency social distancing measures to stop the spread of the coronavirus, sometimes contradicting President Trump's more optimistic outlook.”


Dr. Fauci is doing all he can to convince people to follow guidelines which are designed to minimize or at least slow down infection rate of this virus. The numbers provided are probably not the best or worst estimates. If people don't limit their exposure and others the numbers may very well look worse.

Those graphs showing a flat line for weeks from February to now that suddenly shoot almost straight up are sobering. We have got to stay diligent about our exposures for the next few weeks.

In the last 9 years the flu has killed 60k Americans once. Usually more like 30-40k. Flu season is long. Flu season is usually an uptick in viral disease care that is pretty well managed and expected and dealt with

40k in car accidents, many die on scene and throughout the year. Lot of deaths is ER before ICU too. Hospital burden is different than viral disease

Cancer and heart disease, same thing. These deaths are spread throughout the year and hospital care is set up being adapted to these numbers. Lot of deaths happen outpatient at home. Hospital burden is different than for acute viral disease

Comparing even influenza to cancer and car accidents is not helpful except when assessing Hospital care and world supply is built around this stuff. Add in a new, fast spreading viral disease that kills 200k in the US and it’s gonna be a big deal for hospitals and the economy and for people you know

Yep. Instead of making it sound like we’re All Gonna DIE !


Fear mongering is headline news.

I wonder if he is tearing up, like he did when Hillary spoke?

I would venture to guess this scenario is his dream come true....him and mr gates are probably giddy.

The great thing about this pandemic is that the situation is so complex, there are so many factors involved and so many studies to be analyzed, reported on and promulgated by those with little or no infectious disease knowledge, data analysis experience or critical thinking skills, that one can conjure up whatever potential scenario one wishes.

Faucci is a political animal who really doesn't know his azz from a hole in the ground & is badly out of touch with everyday reality & anything resembling hands on medicine.

Right now any number is a pure fantasy, high or low.

250,000 people die each year from medical malpractice, according to "statistics".

So, even using the lib's bullshit number, you're better off not goin to the doctor.

The more President Trump makes statements indicating he's going to reopen the country, the more hysteria you're going to see from the lib side.

Yes, however, "settling down" would likely increase the death toll because settling down" includes ceasing a portion of the precautions that will otherwise save lives. Denial of risk is not a defense against disease, rather, it increases your exposure and increases the chance of fatality. The same right wing dingalings who preached abstinence to avoid catching AIDS are telling us to keep our head in the sand, the virus is not going to get us. Do you see the inconsistency?

Anyone predicting how many Americans are going to die from the Chinese Virus is just pissing up a rope.

And those who are predicting doom and gloom all sound like "Chicken Little" to me.
