Get your your calculator. What's the percentage come down to?

come on, Kram, you're not really on that bandwagon are you???

Yes, any normal-thinking, non-sociopathic person, (R, D, I) should be really upset that this has gone so horribly wrong and any such person should be really PO'd by those who push false narratives about the pandemic, creating immense friction to doing better.

But none of those people are wishing for more deaths. None.

I'm not on any bandwagon. I'm incredibly upset the way the pandemic was handled.

But it's your contention that the posters here are just posting numbers to "inform us" of the pandemic going "incredibly wrong."

For what end? No political reasons at all?



C'Mon, MD. Don't peddle that. I was born at night, but it wasn't last night.

Hopefully we can keep driving down that mortality rate until a vax is out.

That's another benefit of flattening the curve. It gives researchers more time to figure out how the virus works, and what treatments are and are not effective. It saves more lives in the end.

Yes....flattening the curve buys time to save more lives. We are going to put 190,000 deaths in the rear view mirror today.

Wow...you'd think Nancy and RBG would wear masks.

It’s a hoax

Sure you have. Your team did it for 8 full years of Obama.

Or is your thinking that everyone here has forgotten that?

It's my favorite part of the forum...it has a memory, and it remembers when posters were "fake horrified" by Obama's spending . You find out just how malleable American partisan "values" are.....and that policies are not evaluated by merit....but simply by who proposed the policies.

I find it HILARIOUS watching Republicans clutching pearls, and feigning shock when Trump is hammered no matter what he does. The lack of awareness that they did just that for 8 straight years provides endless amusement.

Think about how hilarious Republican posters complaints were....about how bad the economy was in Obama's last year.

Nope. Not expected to die from a heart attack either. Why bother.

Did you miss the part where I say there are risks for everything we do? You take precautions and as Tom Petty said, “Time to move, time to get going. What lies ahead I have no way of knowing.”

Accidents 170k

So a brand new and additional condition killing maybe 250-300k in 2020 is not nothing. And remember, even Trump admits the number would have been 2 million if we'd just let it rip. Would 2 million hit your radar, Kram?

True we don't lock people down to avoid cancer or heart disease. But that's because cancer and heart disease don't spread through social contact. If social distancing would avoid a few million cancer deaths, 100% certain that we would be locking down to stop cancer.

Cmon. You’re just arguing for argument’s sake now.

Should not Covid-19 be listed as an accident? Who catches it on purpose?

Thanks for this. The RAS has always been on my "list" of things that are out of whack, especially with how the virus binds to the cell. What I never thought of was Bradykinin. I am certainly glad there are smarter people than me looking a this thing.

Here is a link to a paper, small study, using a kinin receptor antagonist in the treatment of patients: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamane ... le/2769237

yes very small, but v good results for what they published. any idea whether they had a number of other endpoints in the hay that they published anywhere?

oak ridge's computer & co. is an all-star if they got it right, wouldn't be surprised if studies like this helped with their process.
