CORONAVIRUS MEGATHREAD, COMMENT HERE AND ONLY HERE ON .WIN ABOUT ANY CORONA NEWS
I have seen a lot of conservatives and Trump supporters be dismissive of this virus. I completely understand why, because the leftist, activist media is absolutely trying to stoke fear and hysteria and are trying to use this to hurt Trump as much as possible.
I urge you to please realize that just because our shithole media is ghoulishly using this does not mean that it’s not a serious problem.
It doesn’t mean we should panic, or be hysterical. I truly believe that if we all, as a nation, follow Trump’s guidelines that we will slow this thing down enough so that it will be manageable and will not overwhelm our system.
But if we don’t follow these guidelines as a nation, we will be facing a truly horrific situation.
It helps to think of this virus as a DDOS attack on our nations hospitals.
~20% of infected people require hospitalization. Without social distancing, the virus grows on an exponential curve where it approximately doubles every 2-4 days. We only have a million hospital beds in America and each hospital has a very limited number of ICU beds and ventilators. We quite literally do not have the beds or the equipment that we need to handle the numbers that we will be facing unless we follow these guidelines as a nation.
Once the 20% who require hospitalization cannot get it, the death rate shoots up.
People say “the flu kills more people” or make other such comparisons. The flu does not threaten to DDOS our nations hosptials. All of the other things that kill more people and that people like to make comparisons to do not threaten to DDOS our nations hospitals.
This does.
