How Not to Deal with a Pandemic

[agstar77]

The U.S. with its vaunted medical system, is becoming a poster child for How Not To Handle A Pandemic. The Orange guy is in panic mode. He actually is recommending wearing a mask after months of denial. All the gains from a lockdown are being lost and there will be a new bottom for the economy, because of a premature re-opening. We will pay the price for a failed policy.

Vaunted medical system??? A system where just a covid 19 test can cost anywhere from nothing to US$6400.00! Here's documentation: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/29/upshot/coronavirus-tests-unpredictable-prices.html?campaign_id=2&emc=edit_th_20200630&ins tance_id=19864&nl=todaysheadlines&regi_id=50975083 &segment_id=32200&user_id=7a12d123dfb1d02ee141dbfe a005288b https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/29/upshot/coronavirus-tests-unpredictable-prices.html?campaign_id=2&emc=edit_th_20200630&ins tance_id=19864&nl=todaysheadlines&regi_id=50975083 &segment_id=32200&user_id=7a12d123dfb1d02ee141dbfe a005288b
Maybe western Canadians don't have as much to complain about as we think we do, and maybe those pushing for joining the US should be sharing the negatives, like US health care costs compared to Canada.

Do you have the equivalent costs per Covid case here in Canada? Would be good to compare apples to apples.

Trudeau could bury every person in Canada for 250 billion

Problem solved.

Maybe you two should just make posts you can both like and respond to. Disappear into your own echo chambers.

Tam and Fauci both said masks don't work for 2 months but then they saw the fear factor they create and then they were ok.

Either way they don't work. A virus is about a micron in size and masks have 3 micron mesh. Doctors wear them to prevent bacterial infections not viral ones.

Trump had a 30c a day cure for this virus.

Too bad the TDS is still spreading.

40,000 more Americans with TDS today. You injected way too much bleach.

Virus rides in droplets which almost any covering affects.

If masks did not work surgeons would not use them.

What doesn't work are lockdowns.
