Those saying the total deaths would probably be no worse than the flu have mostly gone the way of those saying "What lies has tRump told". I remember back in March when a local Maryland resident said he'd begin to worry about Covid-19 when it killed more people that they do in Baltimore. That was about 3,100 deaths ago.

But for the rest of the known world - don't even worry about it any more than you worry about aids, the flu, or any other communicable illness that can kill you.[/QUOTE]


Must be nice to live in a self-constructed fantasy world. Unfortunately, most of us on the real world can’t afford to do so.

The virus is now out of control here in the US. Things are going to get very much worse.

I hope we haven't lost the opportunity to reopen thru carelessness post-self quarantine, but it's possible hard choices are coming.

It is my belief a total shut down across the whole country for a month is what should of been done. This patch work of responses is not enough. The virus moves around feeding on hosts. Paying no attention to city or state lines.

So when we could of been on the road back we are now constantly starting over.

It's worse than starting over. We've gotten much more virus around now.
