skersfan Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I always call it as I see it. It is getting bad in SoCal. Seeing it at our hospital. I don't see a season happening. Wear your mask, but understand everyone is going to get this. Face it head on. 2 Quote Link to comment
HANC Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 Paul Finebaum says 25% chance of season and that is with any good news in next 2 weeks. I understand he does not know anything, but he is in heart of sec country Quote Link to comment

We'll reach herd immunity at 60 to 70%, or a vaccine will be developed before then, or it'll burnout before either occur but to say everyone is going to get this is a take I keep hearing from time to time but I can't find any source backing it up.

I am so sick of people posting this herd immunity bullsh#t. If you have any verifiable proof that people develope immunity after being exposed to Covid please share it. That would be some new, welcome information. If you can't provide some facts regarding herd immunity actually being a thing with Covid, then please quit acting like you know Jack squat about it. 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment

I was laying out all the possible ways, that I have read, that this ends, none of which include "everyone will get this." FWIW It's too soon to know if herd immunity will happen or not. And yes, natural herd immunity would be a friggin' unmitigated disaster if the threshold is in the 60 to 70% range. I agree it doesn't "work". But it could happen with the course our current leadership has us on....in about two or three years and untold deaths. 1 Quote Link to comment

Herd immunity at 60 to 70% would be a disaster so don't go off thinking I'm saying it's a solution we should be considering. Go vent on somebody else. Are you then in the camp that everyone will get this? If you can't provide some facts that everyone will get this then please quit acting like you know Jack squat about this. Here's some interesting data. It's just information so don't go all ballistic, ok? You never get anywhere with science if you draw conclusions before all the facts are in. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

I don't think everyone will get Covid and I have not seen anyone proposing such a thing. But I have seen plenty of people mentioning herd immunity and acting like that is what we should be striving for. I have seen nothing that indicates herd immunity will work with Covid. I have heard of people already having Covid more than once. IMO, those hoping for, relying on and proposing herd immunity are the same science denying delusional people who think if we underreport, quit testing and ignore the problem then it will magically get better. I have several names for these folks, the nicest ones being idiots and Trump supporters. And yes, those are mutually exclusive. And don't PM me again with things that can be discussed in the topic at hand. 1 Quote Link to comment

Not trying to jump on you I just thought it was a good opportunity to point this out. The latest studies based on no natural immunity and the contagious level of the virus suggest that herd immunity may not be reached until 70-90% of the pop get it. If herd immunity is a thing.

What do you want moderated? I realize this is somewhat off topic but I also realize a topic about the possibility of football being played may actually delve into the real issues that affect that outcome. 1 Quote Link to comment
