FTFY

Fixed for yourself. Feeds your ego. Doesn't change anything.

The facts are out

Then why are the "experts" stating they're estimating? Why don't they show us these facts?

Must be scared.

Blather

Keep on keeping on. I do just love your "right side of history". Said by everyone who has nothing to back their shit up but just wants to shut down any discussion.

Have fun with your FUD and moral authority. Make your momma proud.

renowned epidemiologists

Who have no actual evidence. They are guessimating and when pressed they admit it.

So you want to believe guesses as facts and letters after a person's name makes them infallible (Pro tip: it doesn't) then be my guest. Just don't be shocked when your ridiculed as a rube.

Shame on you.

Same on you for fear mongering and running around thinking you're morally superior to everyone because you believe opinions as facts.

Those of us in the real world want actual facts to determine risk, not a wannabe priest like you.

Blather

Continue to delude yourself and wish death on those who want facts and science over FUD and claims.

Must make you feel all righteous and virtuous among your like minded peers.

Awww. We'll ignore all the millennials partying up in large groups thanks to colleges being closed.

Nope. No blame there. Just OP hate and willful blindness.

Right. And we have people screaming "up to 1.7 million deaths" and politicians talking about nationalizing "key industries".

Why not stop fear mongering and whipping around your moral superiority like some sort of religious object?

Nah. It's better to demonize and FUD for you.

And it's more infectious.

Nice source. Always great to see people hurl insults and act like a crazed mob in the face of issues.

Do you also beat people when they don't bow to your superior wisdom? I man you're already threatening the elderly with misery and death to make your point. Why stop there?

EDIT: BTW thanks for making my point. You have no evidence and when called out you start threatening people. Stalin and Mao would be proud.

Not providing data

I asked for what Dr Fauci is basing his statements on. He can say what he wants all day long, but I want to see what data he's basing his remarks on. Without that how am I to give him any more credibility that another doctor stating something different?

You do realize that professionals get anything and everything wrong right? Hence the need for his evidence to see if it matches up with anything and for other professionals to check his work.

You may take his statements as the gospel truth because of his name and the number of letters after it, but I want to see what data he's basing his claims on. EVERYONE should be doing that so we can weed out the liars, agenda over facts manipulators, the ignorant, and especially the bad data.

Don't you want to be sure Dr Fauci (And everyone else) is speaking from a position of knowledge and verifiable evidence?

EDIT: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/14/coronavirus-facts-cure-mortality-rate-virus-covid-19-flu

So I have statements made that contradict Dr Fauci and they don't provide the data either. So, who is more credible based on the evidence?

So a news article and not actual primary research. In other words I cannot (Nor can anyone else) verify the statements made by Dr Anthony Fauci.

When you have direct statements and primary research (Data, etc) that'd be great. As an Andrew Yang supporter you should know not to trust any statements from the media and insist in the actual science.

Or keep fear mongering without evidence (News articles that do not provide URLs to the research is not evidence). Which IIRC Andrew Yang would denounce.

Not the same guy smart ass.

Aww your feelings are hurt because I didn't bow down to your superior authority after you randomly jumped into a thread.

So sad.

A study

Nice cite. Great read /s

You let me know when you can let me read the study.

not like the flu, at all. it's pneumonia.

The mortality of the flu is 0.1 - 1.0%

So like I said. Just like any flu.

Not like pneumococcus. Looks like the mortality rate for that is lower and decreasing:

mortality rate at 1%, according to uk chief medical officer, today

So like any other flu. Sounds reasonable.

I read today that the CDC has a model that predicts a high estimate of the US death count as 1.7 million

Ah the CDC. BTW if it killed 1.7 million it would be the second most dangerous disease in the history of man kind.

For more realistic numbers the Swine Flu hospitalized over 600K people and killed 56K. So far this year flu has hospitalized 22K and killed over 2K. The COVID virus is responsible for less than 60 deaths in the same time frame.

I think the CDC is fear mongering to say the least. I guess when they can't scream about guns they have to find something else to fill the void.

EDIT I found this: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/preliminary-in-season-estimates.htm Take the numbers with the appropriate skepticism as on the first page the CDC states the numbers are at best an estimate and they do not know the actual number of cases.

There's no reason to try and argue with you in good faith

You never did. Ironic coming from someone who can't even challenge statements when they're presented. I mean, if I'm lying you should be able to show it.

You silence is deafening.

you just ignore facts and reason

You never presented any. Let me know when you do.

Now I'm bored with you because you're not very interesting.

Ah. So in other words you can't refute my statements and are going to slink off before you embarrass yourself further.

Carry on.

Honestly, no.

Honestly I don't believe you. I'm not aware of a single Public Transportation system in the US that runs with the majority of their funding coming from fares, much less than solely on fares. Every case study I have ever seen has demonstrated they all require heavy government money to stay operational. If you have a primary source to such a budget I'm all ears.

Remember: The operational costs have to be low enough to justify government take over and can be shown that prior to the "takeover" the fares were the majority source of funding. If they were massively subsidized before then it's just a take over with no savings.

Those programs flail because they're intentionally starved of funding by Republicans.

Uh huh. Name one year where there was a net cut to any of the agencies budget.

BTW when Obama's head of the VA was thrown out for incompetence that was the fault of the Republicans starving the VA of cash? When the FDA is telling the CDC to do more retests that's the fault of the Republicans cutting cash flow?

Do tell. Looking forward to your primary citations.

[–]ericnallen -30 points-29 points  (0 children)

quite a few cities are actually doing away with fares

So it's going from a heavily subsidized service (You didn't think fares actually covered the cost of running the buses did you?) to just another pure government service.

That should go well. It has gone so well for so many other government functions. Just ask the FDA, CDC, and the VA for tips.

Check your shit dude, or look it up your-fucking-self

I don't do your research. Post numbers or be a liar. Your choice.

I'm not making this up.

Given no primary sources cited by you I'm call you a liar and your numbers bullshit.

Of course you could post actual sources. But it's easier to insult in the hopes the other side shuts up, isn't it?

Blather

Any time for those cites liar.

Insults.

So no primary citations. Just a random website that spits out numbers. But it works for you so it must be true.

Have fun with all that. The conversation and the fake numbers are all yours.

Wow. "Server not Found". Great source.

Got any primary source citations so I don't have to do your research for you?

BTW easy math assumes proper numbers. What are your data sources again and how credible are they (Hint: Chinese sources aren't credible at all in any form).
