Not saying you are wrong, because you are not a "fluff" poster in general that passes along nonsense, but please post a link when you toss out stuff like this.  People can then judge for themselves.  That's what this thread is all about, debunking unsupported assertions about the outbreak.

Example:  Trees can explode!  It causes forest fires and that's why you have to rake and sweep your national forests (2 million acres in California) on a regular basis...my source is arguably the highest authority in the world, the President of the United States.

Now people can follow that link and decide for themselves wink.png.

Thanks much for the link.

Speaking of debunking...

Let's just head off any unsupported "Wuhan Lab released the virus" claims at the pass..

And yet the stock market is still about 4X too high per historical norms for an economy in the toilet. PE ratios go in half in bad times, not double. Real GDP growth per capita using a non-contrived inflation rate was not positive for the past 15 years.

And all that belongs in some other thread...

sooo true.

in 1980 our Nat'l Debt/GDP was 35%. in 2000 it was 56%. right now ? 2020 ? its 136%. when GDP gets to abt $16T (19.6T now) by the end of this yr (Fiscal 2020) that pct will be near to 200% !! cuz we're gonna need more stimulus and thats just gonna add to our growing Nat'l Debt (27T as of right now).

we WILL be dealing with our debt one day and it WILL be very-very painful. and it is monday. so im not apologizing.

and s/t else. the UofW estimates over 3000+ USA C19 deaths/day by the end of the yr. and Id say thats abt right as were still in the 'first wave'. if this monster paths like the spanish flu [ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_flu ] look out...and it has so far.

I don't see why you are angry.  I just warned someone else, and you followed it right up.  I mean...really...

That was the second warning.  Neither warning was offensive, nor personally targeted, so the reaction is unwarranted.

Anyway, wish granted.

212,000 Americans now dead, due to Trumps incompetence.

Confused-psyduck

Copy-pasting what I answered to a friend who gave me the news:

Well, he is not necessarily a great guy, but he for sure is a hale and vivacious old man, he'll be fine. I hope so too, I do not agree with most of what he says or does, but right now he is the most powerful man in the world and he better stay alive.

 

One can not appreciate what he did during his presidency and how he has been dealing with the COVID19 pandemic, and the adage "you reap what you sow" is most adequate here. However, one life lost is always a tragedy, and being the current President of the USA and arguably the most powerful man in the world (one might argue that Xi Jinping is), I do hope he'll get out of it fine.
