Your using cnbc as a news source?? Really?? That's a perfect example of why so many people in this country are uninformed..the news sources they use.
This is a fact that I believe we have access to. Someone posted a state by state testing aggregation site that I can’t find. Maybe someone else will remember the link.
The current data does support the theory, though. What we're seeing in India right now seems to be very much a precautionary move, not a response to a surge in cases. And South American is similar. I know Ecuador has seen an increase, but as we look at all the data globally, South America represents a disproportionately small percentage of cases. And yes, of course, testing plays some role in this, but everyone's testing is limited. Everyone is under-reporting. To what extent, we'll probably never know. Unless you've seen something different for these areas, I think they're actually good examples to support the theory that warmer, more humid weather can/will slow this thing down.Even looking at the US, the northern states are more heavily impacted than southern states. Seattle has been hit much harder than LA. New York has been hit much harder than Atlanta. All 4 cities have a ton of international flights and would probably be the most likely cities for carriers of the virus to be arriving. That seems to line up with the weather-related research.

OMG, you posted an article from thehill.com.Dont you know about the hill?
What’s wrong with them. They are a pretty open Platform that allows everyone to contribute regardless of political persuasion. I’m honestly interested because I’ve found it to just be a mouthpiece to what’s been said or attributed to who said it.
Didnt think teal was needed, kin.
PornHub is the only reliable news source.
I think the scariest number in the US is this:Recovered: 394Dead: 1027That means only 28% of resolved cases resulted in survival. Worldwide 16% of all resolved cases resulted in death.
Says the guy who only posts fox news links. You make my head hurt. And now CNBC is political. Unreal.So guru, you down with Fox's talking point that it is perfectly valid for older people to sacrifice themselves for the economy?
Holy crap, get a handle on knowledge of data... What bizarre claim.Prayers for you.
To hear some of them talk, it's like they expected NO ONE to die from this...like ZERO.
This isn't directed solely at you Tony because it's many many many people nationwide that have been hsouting "people are dying" from the rooftops. To hear some of them talk, it's like they expected NO ONE to die from this...like ZERO. That was absolutely impossible, and completely unrealistic. Is it sad?? Of course it is, but it's also a reality. People die, all of us. Reasons we die are various, but it WILL happen to everyone eventually. What really bothers me the most is people are lamenting the number of deaths like they are 100% preventable...sadly, they aren't. How come people aren't outraged and blaming leadership when the many many thousands of people a year die from the flu, or any other number of reasons?? Under those circumstances, it seems people just "accept" it that it happens. Tragic and sad, but that it does happen.Now as far as older people sacrificing for the economy..I'm not necessarily saying they should...but again, the reality is, older people are going to die, right?? Let's say Grandma is 90, her health has been failing for awhile...now sadly she gets Covid-19 and passes away from it. Realistically, how much longer was she going to live, and what was her quality of life going to be?? Death is inevitable. But for some reason people are acting like it shouldn't be during this pandemic. I really don't get it. Meanwhile, thousands of people are dying everyday from reasons completely unrelated to this, and of course it's still sad either way, but if they die from Covid-19 now all of a sudden it's leaderships fault and someone "murdered" them. But if it's from the flu...it's just a tragic, sad thing but acceptance that it happens to everyone. I don't get it. Well I do, but I don't actually want to believe people are like that. But they are.I mean...last i saw there has been less than 1,000 deaths in the US. Percentage wise, that is incredibly low..like minuscule. yet people are acting like the entire population is dying off from this. It's all about agenda's, that's all it really is. Ask yourself this...have you ever known any parents or grandparents that at some point haven't said that they have wanted a better future for their kids or grand kids?? I can tell you this(and maybe it's just me) but if I'm in my late 70's or early 80's+ and I had to die from Covid-19 or any other reason to ensure that my kids and grand kids have a better future in every way(and yes, financial is a HUGE factor in lifestyle, good life etc), you're damn right I'm going to do it. At that point, I've lived most of my life, i'm closer to death than I am to just being born..it's not far away and I know I can't stop it...when it's my time, it's my time. of course I'd make that sacrifice.

Ah.So you're one of those who won't think this is a big deal until millions are dead.But at the same time the steps being taken are to prevent exactly those types of numbers. So that when millions don't die, you'll think it was all an overreaction
