    Far more than 18,000 lives will be destroyed as a result of the Chinese virus. The economic repercussions will make the death count look like a picnic, but while we are on the topic,
    The virus breaks out in Wuhan China. Millions leave that city in panic and yet there are no major outbreaks in other Chinese cities. Only Europe and North America catch the brunt. Rather Odd don't you think?

    Indeed. I think that the domestic violence, suicide, and murder suicide rates are going to be off the scale and that there will be bankruptcies in unprecedented numbers for this day and age; and all because the leftist loyal MSM perceived a political advantage for their DNC masters in panicking the nation.

    Most of those 18,000 would die of something in the near future.

    Given that doctors and nurses are stretched to the breaking point, it's incredibly selfish and irresponsible for people to take flattening the curve lightly ... unless you want to volunteer to clean hospital rooms and care for the infected.

    Well? Let us know after your first day on the job.

    I expect every single DEMOCRAT on here to condemn that statement immediately, including those that thank it, including BIDEN. I can never vote for any Democrat ever unless Biden, Obama, Clinton, and every single Democrat candidate that ran, and the DNC chair immediately get their treasonous asses in here to condemn that statement.

    I don't have to volunteer.
    I've been doing it.

    Why do you not want to stay home and social distance should you get sick?

    What's understood?
    Are you staying home when you get sick or are you gonna go spread your virus to "essential" workers in hopes that they may save your life?

    Moronic to think you will stay home.
    You're running straight to the first healthcare worker you think can save your life.

    Only someone incredibly stupid would catch this horror and go spread it.

    You'd do that though ?

    So what do you actually do? And how is it you have time to spew your bile here if you're a healthcare worker?

    At some point in the progression of an illness, we all do. It's sort of the entire point of a hospital and doctors.
    Right now, that bar is pretty high - don't go until your breathing is severely impacted - not if you only have some symptoms.
    Common sense. I've cared for someone in respiratory failure - there comes a point where the need for oxygen outweighs all else. You can sit at your computer and pretend it won't be you, but you would be lying to yourself.

    A new comedian. I posted an opinion on others post to the thread. My only response to the OP was the article is from a crap source, guess you don't know the difference.

    Then what do I tell the other 282,725 dead and their families which passed in the same time frame? Oh sorry, since the death wasn’t from Coronavirus your mourning isn’t justified?

    Take a stand.
    Stay home like a good flat curver

    You staying at home when you feel like you're gonna die?
    I bet you'll have zero issue with running to the first hospital you can find
