How safe is it to go to tournaments right now?

Two things- sure, I'm new. Everyone is at some point, but I assure you that I am not a troll. Also, it now looks like you don't want to answer my question because what I said earlier is true, and you are trying to deflect by calling me a troll.

DarkLord834

Did so. You just kept calling other people stupid, and saying that everyone was panicking over something that was far less deadly the cancer and car crashes.

DarkLord834

Ah yes. Coronavirus only affects children and the elderly. Coronavirus will have a cure within 2 months. Coronavirus is "a stronger cold that isn't lethal to the majority if people."

I believe (because I also read what other people say) that it was made pretty clear that no vaccines are made within 2 months, and that 18 months is a best case scenario.

There have been cases of serious coronavirus in people who are over 20, and because it jumped from people to animals, IT IS EXTREMELY CONTAGIOUS.

With all these, it COULD kill more people than the amount who die in car crashes.

And if you are right, and the virus affects a large amount of the population but has a low mortality rate- have you considered the impact on the economy? Best case scenario: Large amounts of the workforce sick will mean the businesses suffer. If everyone still panics about the coronavirus being in the country, tourism will go down. Already, airlines are losing hundreds of thousands of dollars because so many less people are flying to locations with the possibility of the virus. The cases that exist are crowding hospitals, who are asking for money from the government. The government has to raise taxes or take the money from somewhere else. Imports and exports to and from China, one of the worlds biggest producers, has become extremely diminished, which is affecting trade everywhere. The larger the mortality rate, the larger the effects will be.

So is the virus still just a minor problem?

@RedGirlZ

Still waiting for an answer. Don't you have a snarky response ready to try and put me down and call me names?

Israel has already started developing a cure and have stated it'll probably take 3 months before It can be used on humans, so no ur wrong about there being no vaccines for 18 months.

 

Besides, as you stated yourself, it's mortality rate is extremely low, comparable to the flu. Why aren't you freaking out over heart disease? What about cancer? Road related deaths? just one of these things completely dwarfs coronavirus in terms of lethality, numbers and effect, yet you're losing your mind over a stronger version of the common cold.

This sounds like a cure in 3 months to me. And yes, I realise that it is not 2 months. Obviously that is incorrect. However, you very clearly state that there is not going to be a vaccine in 18 months (and it does not sound like you think it would take longer) so it's pretty obvious where I got 2 (now 3) months from.

DarkLord834

Also, any disease will effect the economy. One that spreads this fast will affect it much more seriously than the common flu.

And in case you (or anyone else) hasn't noticed, you still haven't given any information about what you're real argument is (other than possibly the fact that isn't worse than the common cold, which is obviously wrong and you said wasn't your argument), you've just been saying, "Go back and read" which anyone can do and see that you have no proper points to argue with.

DarkLord834

It's hard to repeat a point you never made. Seriously. I've read back multiple times and there is nothing that suggests some other argument.

My ears must be deaf, because I haven't seen you say your point once, let alone repeat it.

I see no reason the quote shouldn't apply to you, someone trying to argue without an argument.

DarkLord834

I wish you would stop pretending to have an argument. It's so obvious if you just go back and read that I disproved your real argument ages ago, so you've tried to refute my argument by pretending you have some other, actual point which my arguments have no relevance to.

Simple yet completely unhelpful.

DarkLord834

Do you mean this?

"My argument was about lethality and the uselessness of freaking out over the Coronavirus."

Because the lethality has the capacity to exceed your examples of cancer and car crashes- and people who "freak out" about the virus and stay inside also stay the safest.

Your "arguments" are now legendary

I think you don't actually mind if you are "arguing" with a fool. or a genius, you just like the buzz

That sounds about right, actually.

(especially the genius part)

But as well as being asthmatic, I am autistic and have OCD as well as aspergus- so I find some things hard to let go, especially if I think I am right (whether I am or not).

Who even are you?

Why does it matter who they are? They have just as much right as us to voice an opinion.

DarkLord834

Want we to message you in 2 months to prove I am still here?

Anyway, what makes you think I am a troll? Someone said their opinion, and immediately YOU started to ask "Who are you anyway?" while I said "It's fine."

What's wrong with that?

Haha! Good one.

Same here

But she also insults people to divert you from the fact that she is being proven wrong.

DarkLord834

Like just then.
