Thurston from Pender

BRB: That's an interesting phrase: coronavirus truthers. Obviously a reference to the nuts who think that the US did the attacks on 9-11. That's reminiscent of referring to CAGW skeptics as "deniers" after the loons that think the murder of 6m Jews during WW2 was just made up. Use of both phrases are pure libel and the worst sort of rhetoric, but common for you progs. I'm not going to persuade you and RedDenver and I'm not going to waste more time on you. But let's revisit this in 30 days. As a Master of the Universe, I'm confident that I'm right. I usuall

Red Denver: The United States is NOT Italy but Welsh's bar in Pender has GREAT pizza.

Fear v. data. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0924857920300972?fbclid=IwAR3wIrzjlQZ3ngKutHYSWPMZT0JAr0buYv0GEpWxz_onN6bNCvFIHc8STxM At the Pender Community Hospital, we are ready to take your cases from Lincoln and Omaha. Plenty of beds. And the hospital is nearly new!

The Pender police and Thurston County sheriff are patrolling the village and I'm trapped in my house! Same deal as in Wuhan! The Wal-Mart in Fremont is getting emptied out. There's no traffic on the highway. No commerce. Have you seen the photos of NYC and LA? Yeah, it's a total panic. The stock market is down 35% in less than a month. Three years of gains evaporated. Yeah, it's a panic. And how did you conclude my posts were political? That's entirely your conclusion. I never once referred to the Democrat party or liberals or the media. Where

And businesses are being ruined due to extreme measures taken in some states and cities. This thing has been over-hyped. More people die of the regular flu each year.

Read the story and the headline from the LA Times. The Governors of New York and California are making wild predictions of months of doom; millions infected. They are wrong. Terribly wrong.

Commando: Me jumping into The Dredge was all a joke. A send up. A parody. Sorry you didn't get the joke.

Red Denver: Power Line blog is very influential. It is conservative. It does not deny "science" but is skeptical of CAGW. It disagrees with your liberal opinions. Why don't you open up your mind to opposing points of view?

Bergstrom deconstructed. http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2020/03/dueling-arguments-about-wuhan-coronavirus-data.php I also note that many of the critics of the Medium post want it censored. Whatever happened to free speech?

Red Five: I read Carl's tweets. In one of the first ones he frankly admitted he didn't understand the stock market. What?! How can one be an intelligent American adult over the age of 25 and not understand the stock market? A remarkable admission of astounding ignorance. In his Twitter profile he writes that he is a, "he/him." This academic has ZERO credibility with me.

I don’t think the U.S. will experience a mortality rate anywhere near as high as Italy’s, for a number of reasons including our younger population, far fewer smokers, lower population density, a better health care system and early deployment of anti-viral drugs, some of which are likely to prove helpful. But let’s assume the U.S. ultimately sees a mortality rate of 100 per million. That would be 143 times the current U.S. rate, not outside the realm of possibility. Do the math: if we have around 330 million people, and 100 die per million, that equals 33,000, which would be equivalent to the d

Only 1% of all cases will be severe.
