Coronavirus

[ShyMan]

This actually is a very shrewd move by Trump:

https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/09/politics/what-matters-april-9/index.html

Trump has no authority to reopen the United States-it's up to the individual Governors, who will probably keep things shut down . . . Trump will be seen as the guy who wanted to give everyone their freedoms back, but was thwarted from doing so.

I was thinking the same; it seems Trump 2020 Reelection Team has begun running the White House.

I'm torn. Intellectually, I appreciate what the scientists and medical professionals are saying, but emotionally, I'm pissed off and want my local small businesses, including restaurants and gyms, to reopen sooner rather than later, but I'm scared shitless about getting Covid-19, which can cause some victims' immune systems to overreact to the point of shutting down all vital organs leading to death.

The 1918 pandemic had three waves, folks, with each subsequent wave substantially deadlier.

Here's another disheartening news from today:

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...patients-testing-positive-again-idUSKCN21S15X

"SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korean officials on Friday reported 91 patients thought cleared of the new coronavirus had tested positive again.

Jeong Eun-kyeong, director of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC), told a briefing that the virus may have been “reactivated” rather than the patients being re-infected.

South Korean health officials said it remains unclear what is behind the trend, with epidemiological investigations still under way."

Let's say you coughed up the money to buy a Lamborghini and had it delivered to your house. You would sit there and look at it? Not go within touching distance? Have the attendant start it and let you hear those 12 cylinders rumble and sing to life and NOT go sit in it or even drive it? Then watch as they load it back up and haul it away?

If you answered YES to any of that ... go get a mental health screen.

Want to invite a gal over, pay her anything and not bang the gong, ride the pony, flog the weasel ... sit and look at he naked? There's alway Red t Ube dude ... let me introduce you to roses palm ... much cheaper !!

First, I understand your comparison very well, but my favorites don't compare to a Lamborghini.

And all the guys who are going to answer yes, all have mental problems.
For example, so all the guys who subscribe to OnlyFans and who pay to watch these videos while masturbating in front of their screens, are idiots.

I think that masturbating in front of your favorite, live is much more pleasant.

I am a man who respects the confinement instructions, and you?

It would certainly be nice for me, but for them too, and it would not only be a question of money, but it would help.

Trudeau has said Canada to remain closed all 2020

No he didn't, but expecting you of all people to have comprehension skills is expecting too much.

Patron ... nothing there indicates an intent to keep Utah closed down now does it ... liberal twist to defray the topic at hand. Typical.

ShyMan .... guess the chosen screen name says it all ... live in fear, die in fear. The sky CAN fall too, a car CAN hit you crossing the street, an undetected aneurysm CAN kill you over night .... or a bad china flu CAN keep you from getting laid.

sene5hos ... agree 1,000% ... those paying to watch some babe on her OnlyFans is truly desperate ... specially when you can tap Red_T ub_e and get the same end result for FREE Not sure what you mean by your favorites are not comparable to a Lambo ... Ferrari perhaps, please don;t say VW Jetta!

And SuitGuy .... you just wait ... white Obama will do to you what our last morin did to us for 8 long years ... grab ankles, and it won't be a SP giving you an 'extra' service either!

There were 3 national polls , between April 2nd and April 7th , ( Quinnipiac , Morning Consult and Monmouth University ) and on average ,

Approval rating on handling the crisis :

Fauci ( 78% )

Governors ( 69% )

Trump ( 44% )

Ferrari perhaps, please don;t say VW Jetta

No, I prefer Tesla :smile:

 

[OnJustALark]

Hey Jeff ... know what "poll" i listen to and find most accurate ... the one AFTER an election ... remember the polls in 2016?? LMFAO!!!

Patron ... If I were Gov of a state I too would BAN anyone coming from NY ... they were the port of entry for America to be saturated with china virus ... do you know who had been buying up homes these past 3 weeks in FL ... speaking with several realtors there - ALL from NY - site unseen ... so they can USE the address to GET OUT of NY!!!

sene ... True ... fired has a Tesla with that insane mode - fast than a Lambo or a Ferrari ... so you like chicks that run on batteries ... sweet!

"Covid-19 is caused by a zoonotic virus, or one that can hop between animals and humans. The precise path it took to people is unclear, and scientists say it may have included a stopover in an intermediary species such as the pangolin, an endangered and highly trafficked mammal. But the virus, SARS-CoV-2, has shown an ability to be passed from humans to animals, including dogs, cats and, most recently, a Malayan tiger at the Bronx Zoo."

"And most [bat] species are insectivorous, with some bats able to mow down their body weight in insects every night. That makes them highly valuable pest-controllers."


"Hundreds of coronaviruses have been identified in bats, and coronaviruses also circulate in camels, pigs, cats and birds. But bats’ amped-up immune systems allow them to carry many pathogens without being affected by them."

Maybe pharma should be researching a vaccine made from a bat`s immune system.

First question: is it a good idea or not to receive our favorite at home, keeping two meters between us?
We could ask her to undress gradually, like streaptease, and after we talk naked.
...

If she's infected, it's pretty much guaranteed she'll spread the virus at your place, there's no way to stop it. You and her are confined in a closed space. You can't make sure her every movement is safe or control all the places she touches in your room. You don't know all the places she'll touch in your bathroom. With so many restrictions, is it even gonna be fun? Imagine if she coughs by accident, your place is done.
I don't wanna sound too harsh, but pleasuring oneself by looking at a girl 2 meters apart with her mask on, eh... kinda lame for me, not to mention dangerous too.

-18 000 American deaths from COVID-19.
-Iceland has tested 10% of its population & discovered that half of the people who tested positive had no symptoms from the infection.
-Over 100 000 died from COVID-19 globally.
-Trump just claimed that the coronavirus is extremely intelligent.
-Florida Governor Ron DeSantis claims no one under 25 has died from coronavirus. Dr. Faucci just said he's totally wrong (of course!).
-Canadians will be able to spend time with Montreal's finest sp before Americans & other foreigners do since the border will remain closed for at least another year. I'm curious how this will reflect on their rates: will they remain the same? will the be higher? will they be lower? will side-deals be the new norm?

Fauci is da Man!!!!!!!! I actually think the Connecticut Governor Lamont is doing a good job- I loved his order deputizing Court Reporters to be remote notaries so we can do remote depositions. However there is something lacking in his delivery. He is not as good a communicator as Cuomo in NY. He is stilted in his shtick and kind of reminds me of a poor man's Mitt Romney (although Lamont is a Democrat). Not dynamic or charismatic at all. Just another dude who had a lot of money, was bored and figured politics would fill his days. But making some solid decisions.

 

[The Nature Boy]

Think he’s waaaaaay better than Andrew! Short sweet and to the fuckin point! No plugs to family members, Lamont is an unsung hero!

DeSantis is a lackie

Fair points but I think Cuomo is skilled at noodling voters and creating the illusion of firm leadership. Plus he is a gifted speaker and when you are a gifted speaker and are given the platform to talk and talk and talk some more, you begin to resonate with voters on a personal level.

 

[The Nature Boy]

Lamont is what u see is what u get, reminds me of a scruffy John Kasich

Ben Stiller as Fauci?

 

[Halloween Mike]

They said too that no event will take place before August 31 so officially goodbye Amaranthe Show but i knew it was just a matter of time.

That being said, im really hopping services like bus and obviously escorts start back before that date. Im thinking going to Montreal in June, or July at the latest unless its totally undoable.

In the meantime, noticed a few hundred $ in my bank account, looks like they combined all 4 of our TPS prestation and gave us that equivalent into a "bonus". Altough its kinda ironic in a way im getting "bonus money" but i can't spend it (at least not on what i would want) but oh well, again... more debt paying. Hell with this shit maybe ill end the year with 2000/2500$ less in debts rather than my predicted 1000$

-Trump just claimed that the coronavirus is extremely intelligent.

Much more intelligent than Trump and less devious too.

I'm curious how this will reflect on their rates: will they remain the same? will the be higher? will they be lower? will side-deals be the new norm?

Again, where are people reading that the border will be closed for at least another year? This would be HUGE news yet I can't find any mention of it in the news.

IMHO, the responsible thing to do for federal, state, provincial, and local government leaders in the US, Canada, and elsewhere, is to start planning exit strategies to reopen society and businesses. While I believed predictions of unimaginable deaths (millions) and spread of the Sars-CoV-2 to tens of millions people worldwide, the time has come to start planning staggered reopening. The sky has not fallen. (I'm scared to death about contracting the potentially deadly Covid-19 but . . .) Yes, testings for the virus and the antibodies must be scaled up enormously. Germany's example and strategies could be very informative. But calculated risks must be made and accepted because life is all about making calculated risks. The global economic toll on billions of people has been tremendous. It's not humanly feasible to keep everyone at home for months. Let's hope China's experiment with reopening will not result in the "second wave".

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/10/...tion=click&module=Top Stories&pgtype=Homepage

"[NY] Officials had estimated that 140,000 hospital beds might be needed to treat coronavirus patients. Only about 18,500 were in use by week’s end."

"The daily death toll has still been staggering, approaching 800 for a third straight day on Friday [10/4/20], and some hospitals continue to teeter on the brink of chaos.

But the number of intensive care beds being used declined for the first time in the crisis, to 4,908, according to daily figures released on Friday. And the total number hospitalized with the virus, 18,569, was far lower than the darkest expectations."

"And from the start of the coronavirus emergency, Mr. [Andrew] Cuomo has repeatedly taken the position that he would rather be prepared for a dire scenario that never came to pass than to blithely put his faith in optimistic forecasts. Ironically, his doomsday attitude may complicate his efforts to keep the state on course as New Yorkers start to realize that the worst has not happened and eventually get itchy to go out."

"“How do you come up with an actual curve that is so much different than what those experts predicted?” he asked.

Part of the answer, he [Gov Cuomo] reasoned, was that it remained unclear whether the statewide shutdown he ordered last month would continue to be followed and effective."

On 11/4/20, many people in Hong Kong flocked to the beaches, defying the government's decree to stay at home and maintain social distancing.

My point is that the economic pains and the mental anguish from staying at home (going stir crazy; cabin fever; mental depressions; domestic abuses) may cause massive numbers of people "to run out to the streets." And people may realize that the sky will not fall on them when they do that. (Let's hope so.)[FONT=&amp]
