10 pointsYes Mr. Trump. You know that the american stats are unreliable because of their lack of testing right? In fact any percentage of the population you try and use right now is going to be a highly incomplete number simply because of the testing limitations. Lot of people will get this virus and have no idea that that's what it is because for most people it's going to be just another illness they get in the flu and cold season. It is also highly dubious to compare it to the flu. For one, we have a vaccine for the flu which can prevent further spread and many people have some built up immunity to it. This is a brand spanking new virus, no one has immunity and everyone is susceptible to it. Stop the misinformation in the name of arguing seblantics.10 points -

4 pointsI can only hope we are looking back in this saying 'man we went overboard' because that will mean we did an effective job of flattening the curve and preventing what we are seeing in Italy (bodies overflowing in crematoriums). I'd rather over react than under react. (That doesn't include hoarding)4 points -

2 pointsWhile all of that is horrible. NON OF IT IS VIRAL. I will not catch starvation because my Mother in law visited a country with Starvation. It's extremely simple to understand. This is NOT JUST ANOTHER FLU. IT IS MUCH WORSE (what I mean by that is what it does to the body, and not just the current death toll)....or at least, COULD be much worse. We can over react now, and this will pass in a few months/a year. Or we can do nothing and reduce our population by literally millions of people. I posted a report ( i think in the general discussion COVID thread) that showed how things would play out if the States did 3 things. 1 was nothing. 2nd was doing what their doing now. and the 3rd was extreme lock down measures. None of it is good. But 2 and 3 were still much much better then 1.2 points- 2019-20 CFL Offseason

1 pointIt doesn't go both ways when there's a consensus among experts in their respective fields saying this needs to be taken seriously. It's no different than any other consensus based on scientific data. Yeah, the media has a tendency to sensationalize what it reports but that's neither here nor there when rates of infection along with death tolls continue to rise. To what influences is the WHO subject where it would be dramatizing this type of global event, anyway? And no offense, but calling this overblown and labeling it a hype job when the data flies in the face of both terms is about as cavalier as it gets. You can't show a lack of concern and then say "of course it's serious."1 point- 2019-20 CFL Offseason

1 pointThose are all obviously tragic things and nobody denies that. The world is a very cruel and unforgiving place. But this COVID-19 thing is different for a number of obvious reasons, hence how the world is responding to it. Emergency measures, border closures, shutdowns, etc. are happening because of the serious nature of this pandemic. Arguing otherwise is just tone deaf to the reality of the situation on this planet right now. To say the world's reaction this is overblown or disagree that it isn't a pandemic isn't reasonable. And resorting to whataboutism isn't reasonable, either.1 point- Covid-19

1 pointWATCH: Dr. Fauci facepalms right behind Trump after he rants about ‘Deep State Department’ Written by Brad Reed / Raw Story March 20, 2020 Dr. Anthony Fauci was caught on camera putting his hand over his face during one of President Donald Trump’s rants about the “deep state” on Friday. While at a press conference about the coronavirus pandemic, Trump said that he would like to see Secretary of State Mike Pompeo “go back to the State Department — or as they call it, the Deep State Department — and do his job.” At this point, Fauci facepalmed even as Trump kept talking.1 point- 2019-20 CFL Offseason

1 pointA big victory for Dems in november goes a long way to changing things. And Im not even saying rah rah liberals forever, but a big victory shifts the US in a better direction and likely pushes the right towards a more productive republican party too. Also, a Democrat-led justice department is going to have a huge amount of work to do to sift through the carnage of the Trump admin.1 point- Covid-19

What is with Tucker Carlson? For over a decade, churning out bigoted, malicious and non-factual junk - now the guy follows a couple of sensible pieces about the virus, and the need to take positive actions....with this above stuff. Did he make a secret visit to Damascus? With the backtracking from some of the other usual propaganda suspects, this week - is Fox turning a pivot, here? Fascinating.1 point- Covid-19
