Well without the crazy conspiracy type explanations can anyone explain why they are doing so much better than us?

I don’t disagree that their methods are effective. I just don’t want that precedent in our country where the government pulls people out of their homes for forced quarantine or barging into my house to force a swab down my nose. Seeing those visuals in my country are scarier than anything this virus is throwing out.

Not sure I've ever advocated for that here. They went to extreme measures there and I agree it wouldnt fly here. However we cant deny that it seema.to have worked there. You invoked my name and I'm simply stating that those places have done a far better job controlling the virus than the USA.

It's hard to believe they completely eradicated it, even with those draconian measures to the point that everyone can just party on and not have to worry about it anymore. It's too contagious and can incubate a long time and spread asymptomatically.

1st rule about fight club is that you don’t talk about fight club.

I would tend to agree. It is China so those people could have just as easily been forced out there.

I have been reading articles recently of Americans living in Wuhan that say its relatively no cases there compared to here though.

It was more of a humorous jab calling you out and I’m sorry it didn’t come across better. I told my mother early into the countries such as China would do a better job on this. We are built on individualism and it would be a lot harder on us.

Yeah I agree. I think a key flaw in the strategy was to insititute the stay at home orders so early on. Case counts were low outside of the main entry hubs like NYC, other large cities. We blew our wad on that way too soon and now when deaths and cases are at their highest, when we should be staying at home nobody has the desire to do it all over again. It was a miscalculation in hindsight but one that was made at a time when there were so many unknowns about the virus.
 
If this is true, then this is the kind of stuff that is at work with the pandemic. Lots and lots of stories like this out there.



It may not be true, as I don't know how to verify it. But I've seen a few tweets about it, and I've heard a lot of things like this.

I’ve seen and heard this before. That’s why I don’t believe and will never believe the numbers because they are fluffed.

Yep, old Rain Cold told you it would come out that the virus came out of the lab. Looking like others are catching up.

I don't consider Zero Hedge to be a reliable source. Also I don't believe COVID-19 came out of a lab.

So? How about the Daily Mail, which is what the ZH article is based upon? Anyway, ZH could write a story about how awesome the moon landing was, and some of you guys would fall all over yourselves to say the moon was fake.

1. Daily Mail is also a conspiracy filled right biased source. So, that doesn't help with its credibility: So you have an often fake news source qouting another often fake news source.

Link: Daily Mail - Media Bias Fact Check


  • Overall, we rate Daily Mail Right Biased and Questionable due to numerous failed fact checks and poor sourcing of information.


2. And conservative Republican Trump voters like the GA Sec of State and Gov Kemp could say that there was no widespread election fraud and "some of you guys" would fall over yourselves to say they are traitors.

Zerohedge is garbage and using it for a source makes any assertion dubious. It usually gets passed over the same way as I pass over mother jones.

Its very possible it escaped a lab. It is not a man made virus.

You believe little green men ride around in pie pan airships but you can't remotely consider the possibility that a virus, like nothing we've seen before, was man made? Shaggggggggggy..... c'mon man

Genome research shows its a natural virus. We still believe in science right?

You mean geopolitically and financially motivated, state-approved, spun and incomplete science? Science also told us that masks didn't help. Science also told us that it was racist to suspend travel from China. I ❤ science!

Nope, how about something much more neutral like Reuters, AP, WSJ, and maybe BBC? If they report this, I might become a believer. But just from biased and/or conspiracy ridden sources like Zero Hedge, Daily Mail, and even the NY Post? Nah, I can't trust them as there's way too much fake news circulating nowadays.

There is no neutral news and there is no more journalisim in America. There is heavy handed censorship controll now on all social platforms. Those days are gone. Anyone who pretends otherwise has their head in the sand or lines up/agrees with the prescribed agenda by msm and the technocrats.
 
I heard Pelosi called a Covid infested rep in to vote for her speakership. That true or no?

My Grandma (embarrassingly) sends me stuff from the Daily Mail and NY Post no matter how many times I tell her I won't indulge it.

Fauci pushes back on Trump: Covid death numbers are 'real'

"Go into the hospitals, go into the intensive care units and see what is happening," he said. "Those are real numbers, real people and real deaths."
