couesdeerhntr Report post Posted December 13, 2020 Deep in the covid three days a week at the hospital. My two cents is the virus is real and is killing people. I went from thinking I was going to die and need a new career to I am pretty much ok with the virus and not worried. That being said if you are obese or have heart issues or diabetes or elderly with health decline or hypertension “high blood pressure “ you are flipping a coin on how it will effect you. Not saying it will kill you but it does make some people pretty sick. What I got from this is you need to stay healthy. Do I think there are other things at play with the media hype yes. Are hospitals making money? From what I understand yes. Now we see more admits with less intubation. You can put the two together! With all that said. It’s real and if you are unhealthy take precautions. Everyone else in my honest opinion live your life. As for the vaccine ya it will help but it is just a blanket like the flu shot not a cure all. Every year we will have to take one again. But if your old or unhealthy it will only help. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I feel more at risk of a car wreck than dying from covid. Next time I'll try not to state my feelings and opinions as facts. Careful basing your facts and opinions on feelings...someone will call you a liberal. 😳 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or the deaths where people are dying in motorcycle accidents and have covid so they list it as such?? Maybe we are all missing something... Like the whole truth... Yup 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShutYourLib Report post Posted December 14, 2020 I don’t think that the CDC gets any money for reported COVID deaths, their reporting seems to show a pretty close correlation in increased 2020 total US deaths vs 2019 total deaths . In fact, the number of increased reported deaths in 2020 comes pretty close to hospital reported COVID deaths. https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/provisional-tables.htm While most of us are not worried about COVID personally, when it is all said and done I doubt many of us won’t know someone that has has died from this virus. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hospitals are making hand over first right now. Someone is stacking some serious cash. Non profits especially 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NOTAGS Report post Posted December 14, 2020 Half my family is now down with it, as I I type. My Mom who is 88 tested Neg. fortunately. Christmas is pretty well a solo house affair for us in a family that thrives on gatherings and being together at holidays. Those of you who think it’s B S really are part of the problem. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
