Different situations call for different measures. Measures to deal with cars, would affect all cars.Yeah measures would be taken but they wouldn't be shutting down entire highways for months on end you moron lol
Not going to respond and not because you made any valid points. Let me know when you calm down and want to have an actual discussion.Yeah measures would be taken but they wouldn't be shutting down entire highways for months on end you moron lol
Nice strawman pal. You also quote mined. I'm not a Trump supporter, but I"m pretty sure he's smarter then you.
Then again that really isn't saying much after what you just typed which just reeks of intellectual dishonesty.
"Shut it down" Shut it down" I keep hearing that, until when? The next disaster hits? and the one after that?
These aren't sustainable solutions, I don't understand why that's so hard for idiots like you to understand. They are just emotional knee jerks. The same dumbass mentality that leads to all this stupid panic buying, and hoarding.
Sounds like you need a diaper change to.
Limit the amount a provider sees or a mp attendant sees?If sps want to continue operating that's their choice. They know the risks, and take the necessary precautions. Maybe limit the amount of clients they see, only see regulars, etc. Refuse to see ANYONE who has traveled outside the country, or showing ANY symptoms. You want everyone to stay locked up for the next 6-12 months? We do that, and NO ONE will have a job to go back to once this is all over.
Thanks for this, will share this with a friend who isn't taking it too seriously either.Jesus fucking christ there are a lot of dumb fucks in this thread, I can't comprehend how you even have enough money to hobby with how fucking stupid you are.
For the moron who says that other countries contained the outbreak without shutting everything down. First off, that's false, at least some aspects of society were shut down even for those few East Asian countries like Taiwan, Singapore and Korea that seem to have a handle on things so far and haven't required as heavy social distancing measures. To be clear, they are still social distancing. They were able to do this because they were FAR more proactive in every single aspect of mitigating the problem when it was a smaller problem (testing, stock piling resources, tracking, the list goes on). We are far far far past the point of mitigation. The growth of new cases is increasing exponentially, the only way to get that down is through heavy suppression, that is, locking things down. What morons are failing to understand is that the longer we ignore heavy suppression, the longer this will go on. If you want to read more on the strategy we NEED to take to get this situation under control take a look at this: https://medium.com/@tomaspueyo/coronavirus-the-hammer-and-the-dance-be9337092b56
Note that we don't have to be doing this for a year, once we get the numbers down to something manageable we can implement strategies to keep them down while resuming, mostly, normal life.
Let's put some things into perspective, the mortality rate for this virus is thought to be roughly 3%, newer studies basing figures off of Korea suggest its closer to 1%. You may think, eh, what's 1%, 1% is HUGE! That makes this virus 10x more deadly than the flu. Not only is it more deadly, it's also much more contagious.
Canada has roughly 38 million people, 1% is 380,000 people, meaning 380,000 people will die. That's not spread over a year either, with how contagious this virus is that would be over a matter of months. Let's say its 3 months, roughly 90 days. That mean 4222 people will die per day! Numbers that high will completely overwhelm and lead the health care system to collapse. This leads to even more deaths because people who need medical attention won't be able to get it because we won't have a health care system at that point. Think about the number of bodies that is, where the fuck would you even put all those people? You just going to line the streets with bodies? You going to fill the Skydome with bodies? People who are crying about the economy should realize that letting things just take their course would devastate the economy far more.
Do the right thing, take this shit seriously and stay the fuck home. We can totally get a handle on this but for that to happen everyone needs do their share.
That yoke is so old!!Good time to be in the funeral business. They'll make a killing!
1% is on the conservative side of estimates, but even still, whatever the true mortality rate is just seeing what's happening in Italy is enough to cause concern. Italy as of today has roughly 7000 deaths, the deaths didn't start coming until roughly a month ago: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/italy/The width of your brush is too broad about 380,000 deaths. A much more detailed study is required to determine the true percentage. Age, sex, pre-existing medical conditions etc. need to be taken into account to calc the mortality rate.
To that end, we do need to give a complete shut down a try, too bad a large percentage of people are not going to play along so it defeats the purpose. The virus will spread. Best we can do is flatten the curve so the pandemic lasts longer, with less people dead.
No problem. I would definitely encourage them to read the article I linked, people think we need to be locked away until we find a vaccine, this isn't true IF the necessary steps are taken once we a better handle on the situation.Thanks for this, will share this with a friend who isn't taking it too seriously either.
