Heard the same here
mostly from health care workers that had it and saw a few cases in their workplace
my pops is damn healthy for 70 and he grabbed it on a flight in december
I think he gave it to me early january...I had a very rare fever and lung congestion for 2-3 days, got better but it kinda lingered for about 10 days

My pops was doing music gigs and stuff during that time and probably spread it around the west coast

I agree this new strain of corona has been about for 4-7 months in west coast US if you connect the dots among the people I have spoken to.
Do you smoke?

We already know the death rate is lower than the stats show.

But it still doesn't add up. This thing spreads like wildfire. There's no way people were walking around with it in October. Emergency rooms wouldn't have just seen the spikes in pneumonia or flu that's been reported, they would have already been completely overrun.
I see it a bit differently
but that is cool

stay healthy my man

Cannabis yes
a few times a week

but never cigarettes

pretty healthy 40 years old

I get exposed to tons of germs year around so my immune gets tested quite often, I usually beat most bugs with a single night of sleep and a lot of garlic

I wish people would remain objective rather than mad or sad. People see what they want to see. This virus is a tragedy, but at the same time an opportunity for personal or political gain.
The poster I tagged thinks it's stupid for anyone to think that this is the WHO's fault.

I would say that once this thing blows over and the facts come out.

trump would be defeated by a turd squeezed out by Killary.

snake oil salesman done got fucked up.

everyone else is to blame, he was perfect. He’s been impeached once, is it possible to be impeached again in a one term cycle?
Be fun to watch.

That's odd. That is why we have such an organization no? They advice world leaders, and in this case they failed. Remember when they said cats can't get it and then Corona said, hold my beer, and a tiger got it? The WHO got sat down by Corona once again after they claimed the virus doesn't transfer from human to human. Oh, so many stories I could tell... grab some hot chocolate, it's going to take awhile.

Splinty @Splinty explained this the other day. It's standard SOP.
interesting
well that will skew numbers further if true

somebody dies with some condition and it is listed under whatever virus they may be carrying regardless of severity of the virus

I don't doubt the virus, I do doubt some of the numbers we will be seeing

daily death rate from all causes combined are still fairly constant

according to the country meters site

You are clouded by politics. Politicians across the board have failed. Not a left or right issue. I hope your dreams come true, but I believe it wouldn't have mattered. Even with a Sanders at the helm we would've been fucked.
