The virus is and has been running amok. They have found it in white tail deer and other wildlife. Since it seems political consensus dictates the only way to stop COVID is to vaccinate and stay inside. What do politicians suggest should we do about the animals, start killing them off, vaccinate them or see if we get them to wear a mask too.

Except we probably *do* know what letting it just run amok might haven't looked like - Hong Kong Flu hit in 68 - a virulent H3N2 flu. It waned in late 69 going into 1970. It's now a seasonal strain. It initially had an IFR of 0.2% with top-end estimates of 4 million dead. Best estimates for COVID are IFR 0.15% with around 4 million dead. Not a bad comparison to study between this and HK Flu. The "problem" is the methodology in 68 wasn't as accurate to do the estimating. The other "problem" is all of the COVID data is a mess - combinations of cases counted multiple times for the same person, cases counted using extremely high Ct values, cases counted that are asymptomatic. It also is tainted by "died with" cases listed as "died from" where the frail and elderly might have been immunocompromised enough that they also picked up flu, c. diff., secondary bacterial pneumonia, etc. and it was never treated for. Here's a recent article on covid IFR estimates: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33768536/ Last edited by 3catcircus; 08-07-21 at 05:23 PM. |

Wait until your purchasing power tanks and inflation really sets in. COVID will seem so trivial.

People talk of the greatest generation and how people today couldn't live up to it and you know what, I agree. People back then were quite willing to do the small things that helped like live with rationing, give up pots and pans, restrict travel, etc. Today it's too much just to get a damned vaccination and wear a mask in public.

Maybe so, but I gotta ask why obsess over anti vaxxers? In reality they are extremely few and so far I haven’t seen one anti-vaxxer comment here.
I have read about those who have gotten the full regimen, I have seen others post they stop after an adverse reaction and others who have say said they will wait until it’s fully approved. You should be asking yourself. “If a COVID vaccine does turn out to be dangerous, who’s on the hook?” Usually, drug manufacturers are liable for the safety of their products, and they spend many years developing and testing their drugs to ensure they are safe to use. That's not how things work in a pandemic. https://fortune.com/2021/04/07/covid...ion-liability/ Good luck hope your vaccine works like it should because if it doesn’t yer fooked. As for those who wish to wait and see good luck hope you remain COVID free and beat it if ya catch it.

My understanding is they represent about 25% of the population.

That matches previous reads over the past twenty years, that always pointed at a value of around 1 in 4.

There is around 4.5 million Danes above the age 18 among these 800.000 has not answered the mail they got from the Danish serum institut, they have not booked an appointment.
So around 17 % has not yet booked an appointment. Markus

What about the wildlife that carry COVID, do we mandate they wear masks too? Give it rest nobody cares about your demands. Especially when your liberal leadership has time after time been caught disregarding the rules they impose on us. Minute I see that I start waving the b.s. flag. Start looking at the data, COVID deaths are falling, with the exception of hot spots herd immunity has been achieved time to move on. Masks and vaccines do not cause inflation. But injecting multi trillions of dollars into our economy will. But people are so wrapped up in arguing over masks while you purchase power wanes day by day. Next stop government price controls and then CRASH. It’s gonna take you more than a box of masks to get you through what’s coming.

Seems someone has finally admitted that their participation in this thread has absolutely nothing to do with the Covid virus or the well-being of humanity. Whodathunk?
