they should stay home and flatten the curve...You're the one who says he'd use a burner phone to avoid tracing. You'd be putting people at risk just to protect your privacy.

No it won't. UK just rolled out a plan to get millions of 15 minute home tests into people hands in the next few days and they did it for pretty cheap.it will be months before we have enough tests to be effective
cool story....No it won't. UK just rolled out a plan to get millions of 15 minute home tests into people hands in the next few days and they did it for pretty cheap.
FDA grants emergency approval for 15-minute coronavirus test
The test can deliver "results in as little as five minutes and negative results in 13 minutes," its developer, Abbott, said in a statement.
You argue like a child.cool story....
i believe in science...and the DR's all say lockdowns save lives....who's childish?You argue like a child.

I think I may have caught it back in Dec before it was supposed to be here. I was making several visits a week to asian markets to anonymously buy money orders. The stores were packed and they have tanks selling all sorts of live turtles and frogs and such. I came down with many of the Covid-19 symptoms and so did my wife. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. I wear a mask if i must go out but 90% of the time i stay home & stay the hell away from others....OK, so if you test positive, will you be honest with the medical staff about who you've been in contact with so they can trace and notify those people?
i do it because it's the right thing to do...So you only do this because of the government ordered lockdown?
Sounds like the spread isn't much different from the places with strict lockdowns. Funny though it happened at a Smithfield (wholly owned by a member of the Chinese Communist Party) pork processing plant.South Dakota's governor resisted ordering people to stay home. Now it has one of the nation's largest coronavirus hot spots.
As governors across the country fell into line in recent weeks, South Dakota's top elected leader stood firm: There would be no statewide order to stay home.
Such edicts to combat the spread of the novel coronavirus, Gov. Kristi Noem argued disparagingly, reflected a "herd mentality." It was up to individuals - not government - to decide whether "to exercise their right to work, to worship and to play. Or to even stay at home."
But now South Dakota is home to one of the largest single coronavirus clusters anywhere in the United States,

So are you saying lockdowns don't flatten the curve to allow governments to treat patients within the health system's capacity level? Seems pretty reasonable to assume that they are effective at slowing the rate of spread. Also seems to be working up here in BC, and things should be start easing up in a month or two. If anti body therapy is effective that would give healthcare institutions the upper hand and perhaps move the dotted line up a bit. Regardless, social distancing seems to be very effective, as does shuting down non essential services I.e. gyms, salons, public gatherings, events etc.You apparently don't understand science though. I don't mean it as an insult, just going off your reaction to the thing regarding fatality rates.
Except in the countries with the most effective systems. Those doctors and scientists say that testing and contact tracing are so effective that lockdowns aren't necessary to flatten the curve. Also, the regions with the strictest lockdowns in the world, NYC and Rome, have the fastest case growth rates.i believe in science...and the DR's all say lockdowns save lives....who's childish?
There's enough doomsday bullshit going on lately.Or, you know, lockdowns until there's a vaccine and no republic at all while the virus has continued to spread at alarming rates anyway.
A larger percentage of South Korea was infected at the height of their outbreak than is now infected in the US.every government in earth have fucked this up except for South Korea who jumped on it early
And they tested at a higher per capita rate than here so nobody actually knows that.A larger percentage of South Korea was infected at the height of their outbreak than is now infected in the US.
That's also not exactly correct. This study conducted in Germany states that only 6% of cases worldwide are confirmed with the exception of the US and Turkey.And they tested at a higher per capita rate than here so nobody actually knows that.
I am referring to the fact that South Korea tested at a substantially higher per capita rate than the United States and that is exactly correct.That's also not exactly correct.
No, sorry, it isn't. Hasn't been correct since about 3 weeks ago.I am referring to the fact that South Korea tested at a substantially higher per capita rate than the United States and that is exactly correct.
It's honestly kind of a dumb question and an appeal to emotion. I'm telling you lockdowns don't work. I showed you numerically how well it worked in NYC which has one of the strictest lockdowns in the world. I presented 4 examples of outbreaks that have been very effectively controlled without such lockdowns. Rome's numbers are quite similar to those of NYC. I'm not placing anyoen anywhere. I'm telling you lockdowns don't work and that your information regarding numbers is just wrong, with solid citations.And what about the kids and the parents, where are you going to place them for 3 weeks? A place locked down or a place where it's business as usual?
