Which is loving hilarious when you consider most of those people would throw a hissy fit if you suggested removing the 2nd amendment and that a federal mail service is directly mentioned in Article 1 of the actual Constitution.

I 100% guarantee that if any poo poo actually does go down, 2nd Amendment nuts will go from "I need these guns to defend my family" to "I need these guns to take your poo poo and also get even with everyone who's ever snubbed me" in ten seconds flat.

We should have immediately started testing everyone. I'm a big fan of the SK method: test everyone, contact trace and isolate suspected infected. I just feel like it's incredibly important to know if you have the virus or not, especially since there is a lot of spread from asymptomatic people.

SKULL.GIF posted:the virus is not mutating I'm saying the 20% has been consistent, but if you look at US numbers it's rising every day due to under testing, so obviously it's not going to be like 100% hospitalization bc ny is only testing in hospitals

Platystemon posted:Nah it’s one of the extraordinarily rare cases of the New York Times improving a headline and not just by walking back some really horrible poo poo they said the first time around. No, the original headline said that there is an ongoing gun violence epidemic in this country, a societal problem caused by many factors and which will require a public health approach to improving the lives of people involved. The second one is "Hey (non-white) people - quit shooting each other for no reason, yer takin' our corona beds!!!"

Grapplejack posted:Yeah that mild chest illness you had in February might have been corona! You'll never loving know because no one is testing!! Yeah this is the thing that I'd like to know about personally. I caught something in early/mid February, right around the time the first confirmed case hit the Chicago area. And while I usually catch something around the change of the seasons, I felt like the thing that hit me was a bit early. I was dry coughing and sneezing and stuffed up pretty bad for about 3 days and then it cleared up fairly quickly. I don't remember ever feeling short of breath during that time though other than just regular issues with congestion and cough. I probably didn't have it, but it sure would have been nice to be able to find out at that time or if I could find out if I had antibodies present in my system now.
