You mean that 60 page booklet that looked like a graduate school group project?
Thanks for doing this SON, I look forward to this report each day since the actual MN CDC site avoids this type of clarity.
Our ability to pack it, transport it and give it to places where poverty is bad is weakened by the lockdowns. I am a board member of such and organization. It's a sad, sad reality. The lockdowns here in the US have killed millions and saved almost no one. Even the WHO admits it now. Too late.
I am a hand up guy, not a hand out guy. The people we supply food to have none of the advantages of Americans- they live in socialist/communist countries....your goal for our nation.
The lockdowns have killed millions? There's a legit discussion to be had about lockdowns and whether they are worth it, but when you say crap like this, it means not rational discussion can be had. You've gone very far off the deep end. Sad.
Putin gave it to his kid, so maybe Sputnik V? Lol.
GOP platform: Freedom of religion for everyone who believes the same as we do.
Some reports claim that about 1/4 of China's food crop has failed due to their massive floods, with crops underwater. I don't think the US grows much rice, but we may need to export more soy beans to China this year than normal.
The food situation in other parts of the world is DIRE. People are dying of starvation at many times the normal rate. But we here in America, we are fine, our woke leftists are locked up tight with their lap tops and video games, working from home and patting themselves on the back for their own heroism.
I hate sharia but I love the right to religion of all types. In America you have it. In most countries of the world....not so much.
Actually, there are legitimate scientific studies that, while they admit that a US lockdown was necessary through (maybe) June (at least in states with big cities), using readily available statistics and analyzing not economic loss but only focusing on number of years of expected life lost, they determined that from July forward, the US alone was losing more life by continued lockdowns than it was losing to Coronavirus.
FWIW - in my county in SW MN, local non-profits are sponsoring a monthly food distribution pgm through 2nd Harvest Heartland. It is getting a lot of responses. They go through all their allotted food every month.
Ouch!
Masks don't work. They give people a false sense of security and they touch their face because masks are uncomfortable. The one positive about masks is that they are allowing people to get out and get infected so that we can get through this thing with herd immunity. The idea that we could wait this thing out with a one size fits all lock down strategy was a terrible one that only delayed the inevitable. Wisconsin is going to get hit until they reach some level of herd immunity and then it will subside. Minnesota will be the same. In a year we will look back at the various strategies and the lockdown states will be worse or the same as the states who did not lock down and in far worse economic shape.
SPG is my man. Go easy on him. GII is who you need to call out on masks.
Your mean the GII that didn't quarantine?SPG is my man. Go easy on him. GII is who you need to call out on masks.
I think Ethical Skeptic is correct here. There will be excess deaths this year....Covid (around 100k or so truly have died of it) + a rough flu season beyond normal + people not getting normal health care due to fear and lockdowns + suicides + drug overdoses + homicides. Next year there will be a correction assuming we don't continue the foolishness of lockdowns. The inventory of old people who are vulnerable will be far less next year and heart attacks, etc will be less.
The Covid game is a long game. The winners are going to be known a year from now when nobody cares. The winners will likely be those who suffered the least economic damage while this disease went through their population. In the end most places will end up with similar deaths per million, except those who did horribly in managing it and added to their problem- likely the blue states that locked down. The virus is going to do what it is going to do.I've picked out the date of GWG's post for reference:
No need. "Local doctor guns down 5 members of Trump Forced Vaccine squad in yard" will get our attention.
