Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
Than a fool in the eyes of God

Originally posted by Sparko View PostNo, because when you crowd a hospital with people who don't actually have the virus you tie up valuable resources and expose them to people who actually DO have the virus. Better if people stay home until they are actually sick enough to need a hospital. Then if they just have a regular cold or flu, they can stay home get better and not get the coronavirus on top of it.

Agenda 21? Isn't that the program for replacing light bulbs on intercity trains with LED equivalents?

MM on covid-19: We're talking about an illness with a better than 99.9% rate of survival.

Originally posted by Mountain Man View PostWith my first child, my wife would dutifully bring him in for his regularly scheduled "well baby" checkups at the pediatrician. After the third time, she noticed he would reliably get sick about 10-days later, so she said, "Screw that!" and would only bring our kids in if there was something wrong.
They said the reason the Spanish flu spread so fast was because everyone was crowded together in hospital camps/wards because they were so overwhelmed. Which just made it spread faster.
Get one nurse sick and she can spread it to a lot of patients before any symptoms show. Even with the modern protocols of them washing their hands when entering your room. They lean over and breath on you. boom.

So your good with the Soros inspired program to be forcefully transexualized (is that the right word?) Life is easier for the atheists, we Christians have to worry about whether it is sinful or not if we retain an attraction to the fairer sex.

Originally posted by JimL View PostThe only one suggesting such a happening, was you. The system will only get clogged if and when the virus spreads, and that only happens if people with symptoms are not tested.
There are not enough tests kits to test everyone with the sniffles.

Originally posted by simplicio View PostWhat will the response be if it does become pandemic and people realize that our health care system does not have the slack capacity (factory model) to handle cases?
We do expect godlike results from doctors at CDC, WHO, public health services, big Pharm, and at universities (I think I covered the major players), and are outraged when the recommendations resemble a form of triage. Triage plays a role only when the local health care is overwhelmed as in war and epidemics.Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return.
