Many problems20-04-2020 07:09
keepit ★★★★★ (3058)	Many deaths, organ damage, bankruptcy, financial burdens, inflation,etc. Deaths could easily go to 100,000. Organ damage will probably be long term and is still a wild card. Bankruptcy is going to be worse than has been discussed. Financial burdens are horrendous. Inflation will happen but how much inflation will there be (the govt has been trying for a little bit more inflation for a long time so if inflation is relatively small it won't be such a problem). Organ damage isn't being discussed enough and is such an unknown. It could be occurring in many of the subclinical cases of which it is known that there are many. We've got a fairly good handle on most of these problems but for the most part organ damage has been ignored and should be better analyzed. Edited on 20-04-2020 07:10

Xadoman ★★★★☆ (1035)	With every illness there is some organ damage. Even a simple running nose leaves a microscopic mark on the mucus membrane. When we are very young our organism has very strong regeneration ability. When we have grown up the regeneration ability goes down. We are going to age, every illness is going to wear our organism down and age it more. Those changes could be microscopic or more severe. Pneumonia is going to leave a mark on your lungs no matter the cause of the illness.

From my understanding, the people hospitalized, already had serious medical problems. My guess would be the only organs being examined, would be those of dead people. People with serious preexisting conditions, likely already have preexisting organ damage. You should give James a link to that scientific paper. Maybe he can use it to convince Medicare to pay for his desired 'elective' surgery, which could help him find a doctor willing to perform the procedure, normally a last resort.

HarveyH55★★★★★ (5197)	Guess I'm blessed, that I never bothered getting cable TV, since I don't watch enough, to pay. Broadcast TV works well enough, and local news has stories that matter most. I never went with fast internet, since I'm not that interested in watching TV, it's I'm not going to what videos online either. I don't play video games, pornography, or pirate media. All this, actual spares me a lot of the hype, the spin, the fear-mongering, and conspiracy theory crap. It's an F'ing bat-cold, and it doesn't seem to have been killing the bats, much. Least not as many that found their way into a soup bowl. There is nothing strange about people getting old and sick, and often dying. It's been a pretty good system, for a long time. Works the same for animals and plants. I learned as a child, that pets don't live as long as humans. Sucks, the first few times, but eventually you learn to accept, that your new pet, is only going to be around, a short time, 10-15 years, unless the are car chasers, or some other risky activity. People are the same way, they don't live forever. Some die tragically, others get old, health fails, gets to be a struggle. Least, with a pet, when they get too old, to make it out in yard to crap, you can take them for a final visit to the vet. It's a tough decision to make, but it's kinder to get it over with, they watch them suffer and struggle. With old people, we shove them in a nursing home, and pay someone else to deal with the medical issues, and suffering. We visit briefly, when convenient, but do general see the worst of it, on a daily basis.

And it is sometimes a possibility but often an impossibility. Harvey has been...verbose...on the subject of Covid-19 and unless for some strange reason he's held the information back he has zero direct experience with it. As for climate and planetary temperature issues you, me, IBD and your mom all have zero direct experience with Venus for example. So IBD's proclamation is useless nonsense. Certainly not random nonsense though. ITN/IBD have a death-grip commitment to the notion that citing references is never useful. The reason for this is that their perversions of scientific principles (2nd LTD for example) are contradicted by any source on the subject. So introducing sources and references is problematic to say the least. gfm7175 wrote: My point is that people are fear mongering over what is commonplace. You consider Covid-19 to be unworthy of fear. I get that. I don't agree with you nor do those who you accuse of "fear mongering". I might say that someone freaking out about communists in the 1950s is fear mongering but it was a real threat and they may have been right. There is a good chance they were sincere. If a house is on fire and you are screaming at everyone inside to get out or they will die you are not "fear mongering" you are sharing an appropriate level of alarm. So don't try to skip past the actual debate (which is IF covid-19 is a real threat) and assume you're right and accuse those who don't agree with you of being insincere. gfm7175 wrote: "treated" as a regular flu, not "ignored" as... but for the most part, yes. Yes I think your position has been consistent that Covid-19 should be treated the same way we treat the flu on any given year. Question: Do you agree it's possible that a virus can rise to the level of being a serious threat where running around convincing everyone they should be very afraid is appropriate? What would your criteria be for that? SmallPox is the great terror of the last century if you need to look up something horrific as a reference. HarveyH55 wrote: There is nothing strange about people getting old and sick, and often dying. Nor are car accidents, fires or murder "strange". Happens all the time as GFM would say. And there is nothing strange about human beings capably and effectively mitigating the risk to life and limb. Pretty much the #2 task in our entire history, right after eating.

keepit ★★★★★ (3058)	If, and admittedly it is a big if, the data on organ damage is accurate, the whole situation will have changed. For example, in china, 1/2 of the covid19 deaths had kidney damage to the point of kidney failure. If facts like these are true and even moderate damage goes on with undiagnosed and asymptomatic victims, then reopening the country is insanity. Someone needs to find out if the organ damage is going on before any more reopening occurs.. Consider this, young people can sustain significant kidney damage without even knowing it. And consider this, people can have significant heart disease without even knowing it and then die suddenly of a heart attack. And consider this, people can have significant high blood pressure without even knowing it and sustain a life ending stroke. If these kinds of things are happening to undiagnosed and asymptomatic victims, we need to know. No reopenings of the economy should happen until we know! We can be patient and stay closed and continue to receive free money from the govt until we find out. We can handle a little inflation for a while. Most of the stimulus money comes back to the various levels of govt anyway, in the form of taxes. Don't forget, there are a couple of studies in california that show there are many multiples of people who have been exposed than was previously known. We should stay home until uncertainties have been resolved. I can almost guarantee you that there isn't a single doctor in those reopening protests.

Imagine people in China who die of kidney failure because the shitty socialized medicine was impotent to help them ... and so China has those deaths declared as having resulted from COVID-19 at the onset of the coronazombie apocalypse and claimed that COVID-19 "must cause kidney damage."

HarveyH55★★★★★ (5197)	I don't understand the obsession... It's the internet, you need to look at more than one source, which is good advice, anywhere. On the internet though, you have to be extra careful of who you quote. I've used Wikipedia a few times, but don't quote from it. It's good enough to get a general idea about something, and a few things to search further about. Somethings, there is no reason to expect any political bias, or opinion. I've never clicked an Infowar link, but suspect it has some bias and agenda as well. I'm generally trying to remove the bias, and get a clear look at things, not add to the confusion. Arguing over which is a more reliable source, doesn't make much sense, since I suspect both are a little bent, on some topics.

Either I responded to your question or I didn't. Either IBD responded to your question or he didn't. This is what happens when you lie out of your ass all the time. It leads to paradoxes. A "paradox" is a situation in which there are two mutually exclusive conditions/realities that cannot both exist. IBD has presented INFOWARS as an alternative to WIKIPEDIA and then been vague and unresponsive. That is not a paradox at all. No more than taking the 5th amendment and being guilty are a paradox. Your example above you assume, falsely, that if I ask a question and it is not answered that there is no information that can be provided beyond that. But my question was prompted by IBDs action in offering INFOWARS as a source. Saying something and then refusing to say anymore about it simply means you're being difficult. It doesn't erase your initial statements. Now if I lied that is easily proven! you can simply point out where I have said something I knew was not true. Have at it.

It is important to know when there is active lying though wouldn't you agree? Also not all sources are equal. Actually, mostly your obsession... You should know from all the articles cited in Wikipedia, that the entries are often opinion/interpretations, biased... If looked at many of those cited articles, referenced, they are also mostly opinion as well, citing other articles... Most people don't spend their life, hiding in their homes, nothing better to do, they just go with the Wikipedia entries, and call it good enough. The quote from it, no the articles from the reference section, they track down, until they found an origin. I've gone on the chase a few times, for an electronics project or two. Shouldn't have been that hard, or any reason not to provide accurate information. It's not a reliable source, if you have to work to verify even simple things.

I've seen bits and pieces of their videos (and articles) here and there, but I do not watch/read it regularly, or even much at all for that matter. From the bits and pieces that I have seen, some of their videos and articles are accurate and rather informative, while others are rather erroneous. They seem to be a hit or a miss, depending on the specific video/article. Wikipedia, on the other hand, has been a miss (very erroneous) on damn near, if not every, politically/scientifically related article that I have perused through. That's why I do not accept Wikipedia as a source. The grade school and high school that I went to did not even allow their students to use Wikipedia as a source.

And Tim McVey was not a terrorist, oh and the Civil War had nothing to do with slavery, (you have such a long list of scary thoughts ITN). Curious what on earth is "Liberal" about defining the Great Depression as it is defined? August 1929 – March 1933. What's kind of fun about you ITN, not ulike a wind up toy that does a neat trick, is you can never admit you're wrong about anything so you just get hilarious at trying to salvage your errors and redefine the world to fit them. Like Trump with the hurricane not headed to Alabama. (his sharpie lined map) Trump relentlessly defends use of altered Dorian map I mean it's sad and scary but really funny too. Do you think Lee Harvey was the lone gunman? Edited on 25-04-2020 21:06
