Yeah, I’m sure she said that. /s

Millions of people die of the flu every week, what’s the big deal?

“This is totally not a hoax also I wish I lived long enough to vote for Joe Biden”

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

I can understand a cavalier attitude towards this virus but to intentionally try to catch it is a special kind of stupid.

Have already had one death in my family so I know it is not a “hoax.”

[Secret Agent Man]

saying its way overblown for normal healthy people isn’t saying its a hoax

this has been something exploited by many at all levels to push agendas and test the citizens compliance to unlwaful orders

[HighSierra5]

Bummer dude.

[William Tell]

From the linked article: "Attendees put money in a pot that was awarded to the person who became infected first."

So, just how much money are we talking about here?

Wouldn't it be a hoot if the party consisted of 50 people who all got sick at the same time? They would each get their money back, including the estates of those who died.

Lmfao....sounds like BS....

My stepdad knows someone that was 32 and a few weeks ago died from it. It does happen.

Covid isn’t a hoax, but what about this story?

I think so, it is just too neat!

[FreedomNotSafety]

From the article:

“ ‘Just before the person died they looked at the nurse and they said, ‘I think I made a mistake. I thought it was a hoax but it’s not,” she said, according to the station.’ “

So he said while hooked up to a ventilator barely able to breathe perhaps even unconscious. As told by the nurse who told the “top doctor” who told the tv station.

They also had this to say:

“This is just one example of an avoidable death in a young member of our community,” she said. “I can’t imagine the loss of the family.”

So now dying from Corona is avoidable? I guess so, just quarantine yourself for the rest of your life. Yes people will die of Corona. But 2,800,000 are also going to die from something else this year.

How may young people ha e died at that hospital this year from other various infectious diseases? Car wrecks? Accidents, drownings?

"This far, I've seen two patients <40 die, 5 get intubated and 15 sick enough to get monitored in the unit. Of those 15, six had no readily apparent risk factors (including one who died) and 9 did (usually obesity and/or diabetes). To answer your question on a macro level though, your risk as a truly healthy young adult is very small. The caution I use there is about half of that group that perceives themselves as young and healthy actually have a health risk factor, either undiagnosed or ignored in their calculation. For instance, there's a TON of undiagnosed hypertension in the 35-40 age group.

[Texas Eagle]

Didn't read the article. Did they describe the treatment he received?

Did they give him The Trump Regimen or did they just watch him die?

[lucky american]

I’ll take “something that never happened for $200 Alex.”

[mistfree]

“ ‘Just before the person died they looked at the nurse and they said, ‘I think I made a mistake. I thought it was a hoax but it’s not,”

And none of the patients family were there to hear that, and is this what you would say with your last breath? (which of course was through that ventilator that prevents you from talking at all)

KEEP FEAR ALIVE!

[Persevero]

Those of us who oppose the heavy handed lockdown and the contradictory information don’t think covid is a hoax.

I know viruses are real and can kill. I just don’t want to shit the country down and curtail civil liberties over it.

[jonascord]

I've never heard of a teen-aged high school football player dying from an undiagnosed heart problem, or an aneurysm. All stupid teenagers are subjected to thorough and frequent physical exams, on a monthly basis. Any problems are quickly spotted.

Oh, wait...

[moehoward]

“ Earlier this month, reports out of Tuscaloosa in Alabama quoted government officials as saying college students there were holding COVID parties with cash prizes being offered. Attendees put money in a pot that was awarded to the person who became infected first.”

WELL......we’re waiting.....
