It's painful to watch him attempt to read. Like watching a child read a Dr. Seuss book, but with less attention span. Large gaps between words, oy!

No. Well, technically, Moscow Mitch, AKA "The Grim Reaper", has the power to pull his strings, but we all know where that ends. Both of them are arsonists.

You made sense for a while. Not lately, though. Some of the shit you've been laying out lately deserves derision.

I disagree. I'll make an anti-Trump thread just for you though and I expect you to like it.

Yes, we have flat earthers too. They have the same kind of false confidence that you have over the lockdown policy being wrong. Go ahead and make an anti-Trump thread if it will relieve your anxiety. It won't change the fact that you are wrong about lockdowns.

"flatten the curve" is a failing strategy and I wish I was wrong. All comers have failed utterly to prove otherwise. I have posted a lot more in that thread and have seen nothing but emotions over it. I challenge you squarely to go revisit it.

New Jersey landlord waives 3 months of rent amid coronavirus crisis
“It provides a little bit of good news to people in a world where there’s no good news, and I think that’s meaningful,” said David Placek, 39, told nj.com.

it's winning strategy in lieu of Federal response + President thieving blue states to stockpile for red states and no vaccine and NO FUCKING TESTING EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE TESTS..it's about the right course of action
it's 'washing over the US'- the deaths are expected.

Nope, it's working. The virus is pretty contagious and we need to keep at it for a while longer.
sorry that you are missing your burger. I'll buy one for you when this is all over.

Nice. But considering that he has used the country as his own personal slush fund since day one, not surprising.
Poor Nixon, only a laughable safe full of cash. If he thought bigger he could have been President for a few more terms.

Not being able to prove something does not make it the wrong choice. The numbers are bullshit and you may never be able to prove it. That does not mean that sound science and good judgement should be abandoned.

I never said anything about abandoning science. In fact many of the experts are saying the shit I'm saying, they just say it better.
How Contact Tracing Works And How It Can Help Reopen The Country
It's a technique widely used in other countries to slow the spread of infection. Here's how contact tracing works — and how it can help the U.S. start to get back to normal.

yeah, pull up to the hillbilly in Arkansas that has the virus and tell him you need to know the last 10 places he's been and the last 20 people hes been in contact with.whoa now partner

"Flatten the curve" is a strategy that requires logarithmic graphing.
There were 7,468 new cases in NY in the last 24 hours. There were 6,337 in the 24 period before that. That is an increase of 16%. On march 12, when NY becgan shutting down parts of the public and businesses, there were 368 cases. The dozens of new cases in the days following then, would have looked very much the same as the thousands of cases in the last two days. That is logarithmic graphing. That is "flatten the curve". +16% is not a flat curve. If miraculously, for the next 3 days, case growth holds like this and we can see an inflection toward flattening in this curve, we will be seeing 7500 new cases per day in one city, slowly diminishing until there's a fucking vaccine.
If it takes a week for the curve to flatten, we'll be seeing 15 thousand new cases per day. If we're extremely lucky, there won't be another NY. If our miraculus luck continues, and all of these are met, we still have to keep our healthcare baseline above the apex of that curve until there's a vaccine.

I have seen nothing on your thread except emotionally motivated rationalizations and limited examples. No evidence has been presented even though you are using mathematical analysis like a sledge hammer. When the only tool we have is a hammer, we tend to perceive our problems as a series of nails. You are seeking to overturn an entire branch of science with a thread on a pot forum, ask yourself it this is logical behavior?
it's too late; he's gotten rid of all of his cabinet and those in place are 'acting' puppets. not a chance of the 25th.

Yep, social distancing is working. The more people stay away from each other, the sooner we will be able to implement containment strategies such as wide spread testing, tracing and isolating new cases before they spread the disease.
Thanks for agreeing.
