I'm obviously not speaking in certain terms here. The data changes daily. But there has long been speculation that this thing may have been around far longer than we currently know. Now we have actual epidemiologists that are saying the same thing. And that millions more have been infected than we thought. They most certainly can be wrong. But it proves my point from months ago that it's not like all scientists and doctors and experts and all in 100% agreement and then you just have nut jobs like me asking questions.
There's a ton of factors in play. I maintain this thing could be WAY worse than I am currently giving it credit for. It might harm or even kill way more than I think. I just wish more people on the other side of the fence would at least acknowledge the mere idea that it just might not be as terrible and deadly as you might believe watching tv every night.

A fascinating conversation about "next steps" are to be with CV19 that focus on "opening" up with a balanced view on how to mitigate the disease. Dr. Atlas is Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institute.

Ok so it is about the deaths? I’ve been told otherwise.

Never thought I’d see the day that we shut down the world because a fraction of a percent of old and sick people could die.

Re: MSU: Stadium plans for games
Just for my own sake, when discussing deaths from Covid, will it always be the “last three months”? Because what I’m reading is we’re about to enter our 7th month next week of dealing with this thing. And that’s just cases we know about. Some people far smarter than myself are now speculating that it’s been around going back to last fall. Regardless, in the grand scheme of life, with people being born every day and people dying of a plethora of reasons every day, 484,000 deaths in 6 months that we know about shouldn’t shut down the world. Especially considering there’s almost 8 billion people on this planet. And worldwide 9.5 million have been tested positive. Who knows how many more there may be?onceacat wrote: ↑Wed Jun 24, 2020 11:30 pmI mean, I know it killed 500,000+ people in the last 3 months, but I wish people would just consider the possibility that maybe it isn't that deadly.ilovethecats wrote: ↑Wed Jun 24, 2020 12:25 pmGlad they are ok.RickRund wrote: ↑Wed Jun 24, 2020 10:11 amOur Granddaughter and Great Grandson were VERY sick in late Nov, early Dec.

Re: MSU: Stadium plans for games
There are too many people on the planet. I think it's better to control population by our own controlled means than just letting random diseases draw it down. This disease isn't putting a huge dent in world population so far. For the most part mankind has strived to give and sustain life. We've been practicing medicine in some form for tens of thousands of years. There isn't a disease out there that we aren't doing our level best at curing and remedying.ilovethecats wrote: ↑Thu Jun 25, 2020 2:00 pmJust for my own sake, when discussing deaths from Covid, will it always be the “last three months”?

The world isn't shut down. If it were, this thing would probably be over with by now, but the world would also be in a much worse economic mess. Politicians in most developed countries are trying to balance the economy and health by keeping their countries mostly open while asking people to wear facemasks and physically distance themselves from one another.

It really is nice to have a place to discuss this stuff, even vent a little. At the end of the day, we all want a better country and a better life for ALL Americans, we just disagree on how best to get there.

Re: MSU: Stadium plans for games
Great idea. Take the streak to 11.
I like to be optimistic but with the Covid cases increasing as they are, even if it's due to extra testing and not in Montana, I find it hard to imagine that in two months MSU is going to allow fans into the stadium. I hope they do and I hope they find a way to salvage the season but ....

Re: MSU: Stadium plans for games
It did start last fall in China. People in the US are saying they think they had it last fall. Fall covers a long time period and doesn't end until late December, so you can say fall and not be very specific. This is something that people spreading misinformation do to gain support for their agenda. A virus can be around and not spread exponentially, so even if it was in the US in the fall, that doesn't mean that a lot of people were getting exposed to it.onceacat wrote: ↑Sun Jun 28, 2020 4:31 pmIts the leading cause of death in the US.

I'm obviously not speaking in certain terms here. The data changes daily. But there has long been speculation that this thing may have been around far longer than we currently know. Now we have actual epidemiologists that are saying the same thing. And that millions more have been infected than we thought. They most certainly can be wrong. But it proves my point from months ago that it's not like all scientists and doctors and experts and all in 100% agreement and then you just have nut jobs like me asking questions.
There's a ton of factors in play. I maintain this thing could be WAY worse than I am currently giving it credit for. It might harm or even kill way more than I think. I just wish more people on the other side of the fence would at least acknowledge the mere idea that it just might not be as terrible and deadly as you might believe watching tv every night.
Just my opinion of course!
It amazing how much disinformation people still take seriously & spread via social media this far in after we all know better.
Right now we are on our way to 10 Great Grandchildren. Granddaughter and Granddaughter in Law are expecting around November. Will be a GREAT Thanksgiving this year...

Re: MSU: Stadium plans for games
I agree about the misinformation for sure. Do you still stand by your comments that it has killed 500,000 people in 3 months? I noticed you didn’t respond when I disputed that. I have yet to be able to find a single source that has shown this is the case. 500,000 people in only 3 months just doesn’t seem accurate but I’ll be concede to be wrong if you can show me any proof of that.onceacat wrote: ↑Sun Jun 28, 2020 4:31 pmIts the leading cause of death in the US.

It amazing how much disinformation people still take seriously & spread via social media this far in after we all know better.
In regards to people besides myself thinking this virus has been around longer than we know, do you honestly not think that’s possible? Our first case known case was listed as January 20th. We know it was already spreading overseas over a month before that. Again, that’s that we know of. People were still coming and going from China every day. You really are confident that the first case we know about, without a shadow of doubt was the 20th of January? I’ll just say I’ll be amazed if we don’t learn we had cases before then.
It’s like months ago when I and many others speculated that there was probably WAY more people infected that we knew about. Based on our testing early on alone, it seems obvious there were probably way more positive cases. I was told this was irresponsible to even suggest. Now, people far smarter than I, epidemiologists and scientists, are suggesting that our positive cases may have been 80x higher than thought, and doubled twice as fast as we thought.
However, I admit this will be passed along as nothing more than bad information. I learned months ago that anything painting a picture of this virus being the scariest and deadliest thing we can imagine is basically gospel. Nothing can dispute it. Any other information, that may go against that information, that shows it’s not near as deadly as first thought, is bad, irresponsible misinformation. So I won’t argue those points anymore as I don’t know there is any info that could possibly come out that would make those so fearful of this virus change their minds.
My personal opinion has always been if we learn this thing has been around longer than we think (impossible I know) and has infected way more than we think (impossible I know), than it totally changes everything.

Per worldometers.com there have been 507,200 total deaths. Almost all of those have been since March 29, 2020. Looks like about 470,000 in the past three months.ilovethecats wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 3:38 pmI agree about the misinformation for sure.

Re: MSU: Stadium plans for games
I don't know, we'll see. If the deaths keep dropping as they are now, while the # of people testing for the virus keeps rising... that just reinforces that there are way, way more people in the population that have it, have had it, or will have it... and it will just run it's course like the cold or flu.Mtcatfan wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 8:44 amGreat idea. Take the streak to 11.
I like to be optimistic but with the Covid cases increasing as they are, even if it's due to extra testing and not in Montana, I find it hard to imagine that in two months MSU is going to allow fans into the stadium. I hope they do and I hope they find a way to salvage the season but ....
