Here is one view and there are lots of others.......

Patrick went on Fox News on Monday evening to defend comments he made last month where he said he would rather die from the widely spreading coronavirus than see the economy destroyed for his children and grandchildren.

Never should have been shut down.
I guess we are supposed to believe it left because everyone stayed home. It's still out there and we are not going to wait it out. Let everyone go back to normal and let the ones scared stay home.

There is a you tube video by a Dr Erickson in California who is an immunologist..... just put out; that does the whole compare the "SCIENCE" thing and shows why we need to get back to normal and get ourselves back out and around to keep up our natural immune systems. VERY SENSIBLE VIDEO by these 2 drs. Can't figure out how to post a link.

Thank you 76Bar..... yes that is the video. Watch it, it is very good and they continually cite the SCIENCE behind the Covid and also how it will compare to past flu numbers and all. SO GLAD to see some doctors that specialize in immune medicine that are saying exactly what all the figures really mean.....

Well, now we know that a good stiff shot of Lysol or Bleach and we are all "good to go". :hide:

It's time to let people decide if they are ready to go out or not.

Or injecting disinfectant apparently......not for me thks very much.

I bet we see way fewer deaths this year attributed to heart disease, cancer, diabetes, pneumonia, and a plethora of other causes.... other than abortion..... I suppose if you died of complications during an abortion you could still be counted as a covid case but I think that would be a stretch....but then a bean counter is a bean counter.

Wonder what the stats on ALL deaths in the US of A on a yearly basis is and how that will compare to year end numbers for this year?

I see you didn't see the entire video either. Be careful eating those Tide Pods.

Vett your right, you will never know the true numbers, its really sad that a country like ours work numbers in a way to to get their agenda across, just shows that stupidity in our country is on the rise, lost my mother in law during this, no test or autopsy, but it was covid, explain that .

Since the last Presidential election and Hillary was up 13 points on voting day and lost, I take the media with a grain of salt. I think everyday they pull a number out of their azz of total virus deaths and go with it. I pay very little attention to media and their BS, but I am sure the virus was the final straw for a lot of people, as reported, most had other complications.

c'mon fence over 600,000 will die this year from cancer alone, not much said about that, still not sure why were destroying people's lives on the on the economic side of it.

Fear driven the media is eating this stuff up. IMO most outlets have become an enemy of the state versus guardian.

I know things need to get back rolling but its sure been nice with out all the traffic. It reminds me of when I was a kid. I especially dont miss all the traffic, both legal and illegal, going back and forth to Mexico. It's been nice and quiet lately.

10yrs from now when something worse comes out are we going to hide in a hole again?

 

[SmokinM]

Being as they are going back now and confirming cases that were here in this area in November/December of 2019 it would seem that yeah maybe we should get back to it. The US worked for 3-4 months without knowing so don’t see any reason you can’t keep going now. Honestly still one of those that believe we should never have shut it down.
