Flubros! Day 19 (a place for Flubros and Bras)

It’s just the flu, bro.

What can/should Trump do?

My preference is immediately end the lockdown and fire Fauci and CDC says vulnerable should be careful and they might want to consider staying home. Reality is that he probably won’t do that because maybe people will panic.

Worst case is Trump says we need to listen to the medical experts and stay strong as a united nation to completely defeat this invisible enemy. He follows that speech up with a 3 month extension on the lockdown - an extension that he further extends out another 3 months.

Politics involves sausage making. What I think Trump is politically able to do, if it is handled correctly, is the following: 1. End the lockdown at the end of April 2. Extend a voluntary lockdown for the vulnerable another month 3. Ask congress to pass a grossly expensive law allowing those with complicating factors (diabetes, over 70, heart disease, etc.) to be entitled to unemployment insurance/free money payments for the next 6 months.

What is the best case for us and Trump’s policy?

Bad news for the Fearbros first thing.

UK leader Boris Johnson ‘continues to improve’ after a third night in intensive care
Published Thu, Apr 9 20205:03 AM EDT

U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson “continues to improve,” his spokesman said Thursday, after spending a third night in intensive care with coronavirus.

Speaking to journalists, the spokesman also said Johnson had a good night and is “in good spirits.” The prime minister, who is currently at at St. Thomas’ Hospital in London, has been receiving “standard oxygen treatment,” indicating that he is not on a ventilator.

Culture Minister Oliver Dowden earlier Thursday commented on Johnson’s condition, telling the BBC that Johnson is “stable, improving, sat up and engaged with medical staff,” adding: “I think things are getting better for him.”

Good question - us isn’t really a specific person. It is 50/50 the United States constitution and the American citizenry, IMO.

Sorry, I’m late. I heard my neighbor three houses down cough and I saw an animation where the contagion can travel that far and enter my house through a key hole. I have been cowering in my safe space in a cloud of Lysol.

is there any part of this you think President Trump
is doing correctly?

AND

is there any part of SARS_CoV-2 that bothers you
differently from the flu?

Curious isn’t it?

We have to have REAL SCIENCE and double-blind studies for hydroxychloroquine and can’t listen to anecdotal studies - but social distancing is working (not after the first week, not after the 2nd week, not after the 3rd week... but maybe this week) because we’ve lowered our estimates about how many people are dying!

So keep listening to us and stay under house arrest because what we say WORKS!

Birx said the projections by Dr. Anthony Fauci that U.S. deaths could range from 1.6 million to 2.2 million is a worst case scenario.

The White House coronavirus response coordinator said Monday that she is "very worried about every city in the United States" and projects 100,000 to 200,000 American deaths as a best case scenario.

Anthony Fauci said Wednesday morning that he thinks the number of ... of Washington model is now projecting about 60,000 deaths in the U.S

Lets's see... 2.2 million - 60,000 = 2.14 million.

Trump saves 2.14 million lives! But it it be reported?

Second question - Covid infection is much less dangerous for the young than the flu. Covid is much less dangerous for infants than the common cold.

And, I wonder, if the Fearbros’ bunkers are proof against virus infiltration? Don’t the air intakes require NBC (nuclear, biological, chemical) filtration? I hope the filers haven’t expired.

I have a good anti virus program on my computer so I’m not worried about it coming in that way.

Dr Doom basically called this a conspiracy theory at yesterday’s press conference.
