Cool, thanks. That reporting didn't give me enough information to understand what they mean by "low priority." Again, what do you mean by "lower prior...
Can you point me to reliable reporting on how the elderly are being given low priority in Italy? As for the global economy, if it collapses, the pande...
Beliefs can be used as truthbearers. If we exclude all others, it would appear that truth is only about living things. That would be a kind of anti-re...
One really sad thing about this is that if you have a loved one in the hospital, you wont be able to see them. If they're close to death a small numbe...
:up: The number of infections will start going up again when the lockdown ends. If we do it in steps, there's going to be frustration. The people maki...
Governors are responsible for public health issues. They're at their maximum authority now. The president's role is supportive, to address problems th...
A vaccine creates immunity by subjecting a person to parts of the virus. This stimulates an immune response, so when the person is exposed to the real...
I think up to 50% approval. Governors are getting 70%. But ok. Maybe he has a glow I'm not seeing. The facts remain: he can't attack Biden right now a...
1. This is the time that Trump would like to be plastering Biden with negative ads (before he consolidates the party behind him). He cant do that righ...
Benkei was saying that Trump is responsible for the present caseload in the US. That's wrong. I'm not sure what fdrake was saying. I agree with you th...
My point was that closing businesses should not be done in excess of what's absolutely necessary to slow the spread. We want it to spread. We need peo...
I think the US has closed its borders now. What timeframe are you talking about? Schools just closed because it just got here. We've been planning sin...
I'd argue that a community should wait until the virus is present to start shutting down businesses. The goal is not the stop the spread, it's to slow...
You're saying that prior to closing its borders, the US should have been checking temperatures. Can you think of anything else that would have changed...
Since Trump does all his own press conferences, what we get is a crystal clear window on the mind of a doddering fool. Did he make things worse? I don...
Ok, how about gun violence? The reaction to gun violence vs coronavirus is down to mythology. I'll stand by that. Trump is not responsible for the cas...
:smile: I was having to use my poker face yesterday because I don't usually work in the emergency dept. I'm an ICU person. But I made it through. I th...
yes, I get that it's a poor comparison. My point is that when people were hoarding toilet paper it wasn't because of anything real. They were respondi...
I'm not a physicist either. I think the point Holmes was making (this was a couple of years ago for me, btw) could be illustrated by looking at the tr...
Teams of experts could easily be assembled to tell the headless chickens what to do about climate change. What gives one crisis traction and the other...
There are several aspects to this: 1. Political. Politicians are rewarded for appearing to take the crisis seriously. Some news source listed the name...
I dont have any authority. I'm a respiratory therapist who used to sell medical equipment and now is back in the clinical setting. Thanks! It's strang...
It's not clear to me what your point is. If it's that somebody should have done things differently, I dont see a lot of value in that kind of 20-20 hi...
We also know that for every positive test, there are about 10 asymptomatic infections. That's 1. Why the wave of sick people ramps up so high so quick...
A drug that's helpful in one situation can be deadly in another, so you don't know if this drug is helpful or harmful in the case of coronavirus. None...
Corticosteroids are very helpful drugs. Coronavirus symptoms are a match for what we usually give them for. But doctors who give corticosteroids for c...
