When the NY Times and Atlantic report the CDC over counting active corona 19 cases it's got to be a serious overlook. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/20...ng-states-keep-economies-closed-indefinitely/

read my other posts buddy? I am science all the way. you are preaching to the choir here!
Hell I am just bored...raining for two or so weeks, need outside, split and stack 2021 firewood. I need to mow the pasture, watch the carrots grow and here I am, on occasion I like to poke a hornets nest.
Sometimes I get stung. on occasion I get poked but mostly I laugh a lot. If you ware a suit and tie do not come in my house. If you have mud on your boots or are not afraid to crawl under my tractor then come on in and we will have a cup and figure this stuff out.

A good 1/2 inch drive air impact gun is a good tool to assure not passing along any infection.
That and a 10 hp compressor. Works with my wife I'll tell ya!
We should definately treat this cold like no other cold in history.
You guys are funny.
First time in history we let a flu close us down. And the closing down will only prolong it.
First time in over 100 years they drop the "fever" temperature, that alone generated thousands and thousands of "covid admittance numbers.
So far there has been mis-counting in every state. All of it over counting.
About the only thing that scares me on this one is how easily people are lead with bad data.
Regardless of all the bad numbers, the future boogy men etc. IT IS STILL A FLU. I don't live in a vacuum, my wife works all day at the hospital, my niece works all day at a hospital, my SIL works in a long term care facility, my neighbor and good friend is a doctor. None of them are scared.
Are you guys scared of falling or flying objects? Just wondering.

That makes 3 members now ive seen wishing death ,sickness or suffering on other members because of a different viewpoint.
Reminds me of little kids in a temper tantrum throwing stuff...lol
Kind of what Fauci said late last week Get over it. Trump has politicized the mask issue by not wearing one. In my view, he totally screwed the pooch on the whole thing and I also think it will bite him in the butt November 15th.
He let his ego get in the way of rational thinking. Very bad for any President to do.
He closed the bars after letting them reopen for I think a week. A few didnt close so they lost thier license for 30 days, going out of business with or without a liquor license. The bar owners were screaming they were going to court to force gov to call emergency session of legislature claiming our State Constitution is being violated by governors orders.
The mask order apples only to counties with 20 or more cases plus there are all sorts of exemptions. Our little rural county reached 47 ( 22 recovered of these ) the other day , no deaths & none of these are supposedly hospitalized
I see in Nevada OSHA is doing mask checking and I read you can be fined up to $135,000.00 for non compliance. Seems easier to wear a 2 buck mask to me.
I have a bad feeling 150,000 is nothing compared to what it will be in 6 months.
I think Fauci estimated a million at the high end worse case scenario and I'd say we are well on our way especially with all the 'I won't wear a mask or social distance because I don't have to a'holes'.
Don't get in my space, don't come to my house and above all stay the hell away from me or you won't like the outcome.

Sleddog, you and motionclone are lucky enough to be living in states with very few covid cases so far, so the perspective of your associated health care friends is atypical. Many of us in different places feel a lot of things, scared doesn't quite cover it. Pissed off because it didn't have to go this way is more like it. Look at practically every other country in the world.
As far as the undercounting and overcounting issue, we've discussed it before, so no point in rehashing it. Michigan separates probable versus confirmed as well as test type. Read all the papers carefully. A lot is still a lot.
I am not sure why you linked the change in expected normal temperature to the covid issue? Do you really think it was a nefarious scheme to change the diagnosis rate? I for one have always thought the 98.6 ave normal was odd. I took a thermometer back to a pharmacy when I was a student because it never read over 97.4. Thought it was defective. Turns out that's where my temp and apparently a lot of other people's idles. Pharmacist said that to me 50 years ago.
I am curious as to why you are so certain that the covid virus would disappear if we all did nothing and let a bunch of folks get infected? Do you have any models or something that show that?
Just history up to this point. There have been literally thousands of virus's we have dealt with. We have NEVER done it this way in HISTORY. I used that.
There is no doubt there is the flu going around. My point is how long do you want it to go around for? With the current approach, it will be years of the "boogeyman" out there waiting to get us.
sheepfarmer,
There are people out there that would trust a suit and reality TV over a lab coat,
me I am here because of lab coats. Now you can not convince them to blow up there TV and get a free library card.

I just noticed this. I guess what is good for the goose is not necessarily good for the gander. The Kansas govenor says wear facemask, but exempts the state legislature.

If Trump ordered the country to mask up you guys would be screaming at the sky talking about how the lab coats said not to wear masks. ..lol

I've had my temperature checked by different customers on a regular basis to enter factories and meat processing plants. That's been a running joke. The only accurate one was at the doctors office. The factories use an infrared thermometer like I carry for checking hot spots on engine blocks.
My temperatures been running anywhere from 78 degrees to 130
The scary part is when they got me with the 130 degree temperature, they wouldn't let me on the property
They said I was running a really high fever 
Took me about 20 minutes to get them to understand that there is no way I would be running a temp that high and still be talking to them. And that there was something very wrong with there reading. I think they got my safety glasses that day. They had been on the dash with the defroster running and I had just switched from my eye glasses. And they were hot when I put them on. They shot me again and it was around 90 degrees
