Nope. It depends on "what it is".

i.e. I don't believe the death numbers. You see, I actually now know of TWO people in my circle that have died of the virus. One was 69 and admitted - before this was a thing - to the hospital for pneumonia and bronchitis. The other died in a motorcycle crash. But their corpses both tested positive.

So those numbers mean nothing to me.

And no to put too fine a point on it, but in my country, Kentucky, those inflated numbers are still well below a thousand. And when you add in just how many were in nursing homes and retirement homes - where people go to die - it's even less of a concern.

I don't see it as a "serious" threat, which is why I don't wear a mask nor do I social distance. When I HAVE TO wear a mask, I wear one with large slits in it so I can easily breath, as God designed me. This isn't a movie. This isn't the plague. It's a virus that is, truth be told, not all that deadly. How's India and Sweden doing?

I don't believe the death or infection numbers either. I know of two people, in my smaller community, that went to a free testing site they got tired of waiting after signing up and left. Couple weeks later they got letters saying they tested positive but were not even tested. Also the video I posted were the official was saying doesn't matter how they died if they test positive it's considered a covid death.

And this

Dr. Fauci says his daughters need security as family continues to get death threats

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/08/05/dr-f...h-threats.html

Unbelievable, but from the Insane crap we see posted here every day, Trumpkins are simply filthy, nasty, disgusting sub-humans, capable of doing or saying anything. Sad.

...and you would be wrong about Democrats. Your statement doesn't even pass the smell test. 'I know you are but what am I' ceased being a valid argument after 2nd grade.

Are you OK? You seem tired.

Due to the ridiculousness of that statement it must be an attempt at humor.
Don't quit your day job.
