Good chart. Any other years higher than 2017/18 flu season? Noticed it was above epidemic threshold, don't think anything got closed during that time

One thing to note. The US is at 226 deaths per Million. Thus this chart reflects that under the PIC. Many European nations are above 300. New York and New Jersey are at 1320 and 965. If New York was a country they would be the worst county in the world. Most definitely they should be under major stay at home quarantine rules. But for states that are below half the the deaths per Million, say under 100, which would be around standard P&I, they should have less stringent rules. California is at 63, Texas at 36. Get those states up and running, helping the economy and helping other states in need like New York and New Jersey. Keep a weekly watch and modify if necessary.

We had a vaccine and effective treatment in 2017-18 flu season; so far we don't have either for covid 19. One reason it almost got away was the low rate of vaccination before the season took off, which would mean getting the shots in September or so. I know I didn't get one - how about you?

As for states opening early, Georgia, Florida, and Texas have volunteered to test that tactic for us. I'm watching to see how that turns out.

I went out to three grocery stores yesterday, my first such trip since March 30, because I had to pick up a prescription at one of them. I didn't notice anyone whining about having to wear a mask. Irrelevant point - Smart&Final in Escondido still had almost nothing in the paper products aisle, just like in March. Another thing - because stores don't want people bringing in reusable bags (you don't know where those things have been) they are freely using the plastic shopping bags that were banned recently.

Some very healthy people have, and like with most things it's crowd control on the governments part and respect for others on ours to simply wear a mask. Do you think a mask makes you look weak?

The number of healthy people who have supposedly died from cv-19 is statistically barely above zero.
I didn’t wear a mask when the government said that it was a waste of energy, and I don’t wear one now when the government says it’s imperative.
If I were an unhealthy pot bellied garden gnome, I’d stay home.
Since I’m not, I will use my freedom and good health to continue to be productive, protect the health of the nation and Generally contribute to society in an American way.

Question asked, question answered...no whining.
What are you fuckin' talkin' about Magoo?
You & Joe Biden seemingly suffer from the same affliction...start off slow and weak and then just fizzle out all together...
Pour bastards.
 
The First :

Three pronged attack.....!

1. They attacked the USA with a Bio-weapon
2. They attacked the USA by collapsing the meat/poultry market.
3. They just released a Chinese Hornet in an attempt to decimate the Honey Bee population....

The Second :

Three pronged attack....!

1. A Financial collapse brought on in conjunction with our own Politicians.
2. A second wave of a Virus ( Not COVID-19 ).
3. A further collapse of the goods supply to America.

The Third :

Military action against the United States.....

The Presidents Tarriffs really hurt China and the New World Order.....
and they want to make him pay....

Remember....they have 1.4 Billion citizens....!
We have 340 Million or so Citizens...!

If you don't think this can happen....You are foolish !

The mask is to protect others. I visited Japan a couple of years ago and was struck by the number of citizens wearing masks, particularly when traveling mass transit. I remember asking someone about that, asking why so many in Japan were worried about getting sick (assuming those wearing masks were afraid for themselves). I was told the masks wearers weren’t wearing the masks to protect themselves, they were wearing the masks to protect others. It is considered polite to wear a mask if you have a cold, or whatever, to prevent spreading your cold to others. Makes sense actually.

I keep a mask in my car so that I can wear when in the store, etc. I think it’s a pain but it’s not that big of a deal for me if it makes others feel comfortable. There are more important things to lay down on my sword for, wearing a mask isn’t one of them.
