    Obviously, I didn't understand what the dates and death toll you were using - which is why I asked. I wasn't trying a "gotcha" - I was sincerely asking. I was mainly perplexed at why you used a 3 day time frame, but at this point it doesn't matter. Thanks for the reply.

    Sorry your buddies hours were cut back; sounds like he/she has a chance to pick up some extra work at the other hospitals around town as it would seem they have their hands full with patients. Sorry he works for a shitty health system.

    I know a lot of people are skeptical of Moderna and are questioning whether their early data was real. This is going to be a very closely watched vaccine. Hopefully everything is on the up and up and the vaccine works out.

    By the way, just a reminder that there's still considerable doubt about how long Covid antibodies will provide immunity. Some studies have shown they drop rapidly from their initial levels. Just more reasons why I'm doubtful they're going to know anytime soon as to how effective any vaccines are.

    I'm beginning to think T cells are the more important route to immunity, as opposed to just antibodies

    My county was #1 in our state per capita for a stretch. It's not easy, but if you give a little less fricks than others, it's possible. Throw your mask in the garbage, and shoot double birds on your way to Walmart shaking everyone's hand (haha)

    I'm thinking the more we learn, the vaccine seems like a long shot, unless we just completely ignore how we normally do approvals. You're talking about a virus where 40% of the people infected don't have any symptoms, something like 90% have flu like symptoms and don't require hospitalization, and something like .3% of infected die from. That would have to be an incredibly safe vaccine with more or less non-existent side effects. Maybe you could just give it to the vulnerable, but a lot of the vulnerable tend to not respond as well to vaccines.

    If we find out that we get the infection a second time and it tends to be worse, then that would help. But I assume that would mean developing an effective vaccine will be even harder.

    Then throw in potential booster shots every few months

    The strategy was there all along. We were just too dumb to see it.

    Flatten the curve.
    Flatten the economy
    Flatten Freedom, Liberty, and the Human Spirit.

    The antibody response is sounding a lot like the flu. It doesn't last forever. That's one of the reasons you have to get a new flu shot every year. The other is mutations and we don't know about those with this one yet.

    Coronavirus hospital data will now be sent to Trump administration instead of CDC.

    How can you possibly think that is a good thing.

    Remove the name Trump.

    We are letting the executive leadership of the country with no medical background filter what we do and don't release about our medical information. This is literally what China did when we ALL accused them of suppressing the data. This is NOT a good thing. If you think so then you are anti-freedom of information.

    I'm not anti freedom of information but ... I want accurate and not manipulated information.

    FWIW ... there's a reason I haven't been on this board much last few weeks. I've been diving deep into this. 20 years ago I dove deep and knew about some BIG (and I mean BIG) things before they happened. I was quite shocked myself when they did come true. I know a few good sources and have since found others. Also dove deep into Kennedy assassination a little later. Kennedy was trying to stop what is going on now. Wasn't a fan of JFK before I studied it (family hated him) and came away a HUGE fan. The most patriotic (to the Constitution) President of the 20th century.

    When I brought up what I knew ... people scoffed at it. Around 13 or 14 years ago threw up my hands and said eventually our freedom would gradually be eroded and we would passively end up totally socialist, but hoped it didn't happen in my lifetime. However, not everyone is as asleep as I thought they were (although I had been kinda dozing myself some). The riots and the way they progressed reawakened me.
    Those folks that weren't asleep elected Trump. When Trump was elected, that was not part of the plan. And there are reasons there is a wave of stuff happening now.

    Depending on the outcome of some future events, you may get EXACTLY what you would like Comrade ... and then some.

    It's extremely troubling that it's happening, but I'm still amazed at the people that just fall in line with Trump's totalitarian tendencies.

    Trump's not a totalitarian. That's why he hasn't locked us down. If Hillary was President, you'd really be seeing totalitarian right about now.
