Good advice, but.... NY is running out of hospital bed already. And the testing nationally is hopeless. We have no idea at all nationally how many have it. Someone in my family required testing with symptoms. That person has to wait 3 or 4 weeks for results.

US average mortality rate in 2019: .87% -- 8.7 per 1,000 people US coronavirus mortality rate: 1.32% as of today Italy average mortality rate in 2019: 1.06% While the media uses Italy to stoke virus hysteria, they're not mentioning that Italy was already in the top ten for global death rate before all this. |

For perspective on the health impact of Coronavirus. Consider the annual impact of the common flu. The economic impact will affect people and businesses more than the virus. These stimulus checks are meant to easy that impact.

The News Media has played a big part in creating this panic and hysteria that’s going on now in the world and our country. Sure I’m very concerned about the situation now and the virus that is consuming the world but we have to remain calm and vigilant in our efforts to get it under control and possibly erradicated to benefit the whole world populations.

Its like the bail outs, what people don't understand or want to is that a bail out in essence is the federal government playing private equity but with a regulatory agenda. They want their money back with interest and like a P.E firm, it comes with rules.

Every politician lies! I don’t care who it is they all tell lies at one time or another! The news media tells lies too!

And some of them may have been accurate at the time he said them. In January when he said, "it's under control", he might very well have believed that. Very easy to pull quotes based on old information. First known case in the US was January 20. If you simply assume he exaggerates everything (sometimes wildly) you'll be much better for it. But if you assume everything is a lie, then you'll do nothing but try to find just enough inaccuracies to make them lies. That being said, the cases will continue to rise and unfortunately so will the deaths. It's just not clear how both sides want to make this political or about the President. It's simply not. It's a virus. And for perspective, the 2009/2010 Pandemic, 12,000 Americans died and 60 MILLION were infected. And here is an interesting article (still....from the internet) that compares the two and counters a few of your points. https://www.livescience.com/covid-19...swine-flu.html To your point, here is an Op/Ed piece by Mitch Album, generally fairly insightful, that makes your case. https://www.freep.com/story/sports/c...an/2892048001/ Now about those Camaro parts...................
