The fact that the news reports cases, and not deaths, and that the
hospitals are no-where near regular capacity shows this is now a
nothing-burger and we need to get back to work.
Exactly! A state in the upper mid-west United States reports they have 3200 hospital beds available. Active COVID-19 cases requiring hospital beds? 116! Yet the lying New York toilet paper Times says that state is running out of beds. The next state south? They are now counting and including as COVID-19 cases even suspected cases. They are also going back to deaths from several weeks ago and now counting them as COVID-19 whether that was the real cause of death or not, and they openly admit it! Got to ramp up the numbers to keep the fear and panic going.
If I had the authority, I would stop the foolishness, get everyone that is healthy out and about, build the herd immunity, and only quarantine the sick and definitely at risk persons.
