How are people actually catching the virus? Would be nice to see some data around the known vectors of transmission, and what percentage of infections came from unknown sources. Shouldn't be that loving hard but the dumbest people in the world seem to be in charge everywhere.

Lol, no. You're still sitting in an enclosed space with strangers for long periods of time which is an idiotic thing to do if you don't have to. if you absolutely have to be waited on or you'll die or something at least go to a place with a patio and go during off hours.

but i need people to see that im being served just as much as i need to be served. my life depends on it and we have to go on living.

Lmao this is a troll right? Because that's the exact mindset that this thread spends hundreds of pages mocking. Because it is a very stupid mindset that deserves to be mocked.

relax bro, it's just the flu, plus everybody has been quarantined for months and washing their hands all the time. masks don't work, the surgeon general said so, and they wouldn't open gyms and restaurants if it wasnt safe.

70% of the population is 209 million

Assuming we're already at 180,000 deaths now at 7% of the population affected...

180,000 x 10 = 1.8 million dead total before herd immunity

So if we're underestimating/hiding bodies by a third, when the official numbers say 1.2 million we'll be there

At a rate of 1000 deaths/day, we'll be there in....1,080 days...2.95 years...

Yowza!

Don't forget that at some point we will probably see exponential growth again so it'll probably take less time than that. Once a certain percentage of the population is infected it will be impossible not to get exposed.

remember when the trump admin refused the WHO roni tests and instead decided to go with the broken test from the CDC provided by a company trump owns stock in? that was right around the time they let all the people from the plague ship wander around san fran or whatever and then go back to their home cities.

30,000 per taxpayer would change a lot of lives for the better. Of course we didn't do that, because you can't let "those people" have free money.

It's funny that this is all it would probably take to solve literally all the problems in the country for a couple of years.

Might cause others too but most of our existing problems could be solved that simply.

it’s hard to say because they count returning residents as community spread, so everything is community spread. they say they’ve traced all the outbreaks to previously known cases though.

it's funny how back in march the idea was that testing could be used for contact tracing and subsequent isolation of contacts, but the mainland US decided not to do any of that and the testing has to ramp up 100-fold to even make a marginal difference
