Real Quarantines!

[Whig]

These signs below were times when we had real quarantines in this country. You quarantine sick people.

You never saw a sign that said:

"Quarantine: Caution-Healthy People Inside!"

That's why this is a political action, not a health action.

I dont see how you can say that. If you only quarantined people with obvious covid19 symptoms everyone would become exposed eventually and you would have 1918 all over again only infinitely worse. There were less than 2 billion [corrected] people worldwide then, now theres almost 8 billion [corrected]. Quarantining everyone, exposed but not symptomatic, symptomatic and the truly unexposed is the only way I can see to have the largest potential number of survivors. The only political aspect is that in the good ol USA it is an election year. And the economic destruction covid19 is causing will probably have an impact.
[Thanks guys, all those naughts confused me.]

I think those human population numbers should be Billions, unless you are counting Democrat Ballots!

(If ballots, then I suppose Trillions will show up, in some 'Blue' districts). ::)

He's counting the dead- many of who still vote democrat in elections...

This is a flu virus. Most flu viruses are different in certain ways like this one. Death numbers are being inflated. I'm a physician and have been "instructed" by the Ohio Medical Board to add Covid-19 to any death certificate whether or not there was any evidence to show that the person actually died of Covid-19. The Centers for Disease Control is saying clearly that they will interpret these death certificates to show that anyone who died WITH Covid-19 will be considered to have died FROM Covid-19. If I falsified a death certificate for any reason, I would lose my license. But, the govt can do it and set policy with the falsified statistics and hospitals can bill higher amounts for people who have been diagnosed with this Hoax Flu.

The physicians doing this, as instructed all around the country, are complicit in a big scandal/hoax for political and monetary reasons.

Interestingly enough, fewer deaths from other normal causes are being recorded now.

You won't see this on CNN or MSNBC, though. Maybe history will reveal the truth but I'm not even sure about that.

Good thing God is still in ultimate control!

Until his death, my father always voted Republican.

Whig, Thats a good point that victims who die WITH covid19 will be assumed to have died FROM covid19. But to me youre splitting hairs. The deadly pneumonia that developed was because the patient had the flu, if he hadnt caught the flu he wouldnt have developed the pneumonia. Complications brought on by covid19 would be my laymans explanation. Which makes sense to me. Its not like the victim was fatally struck by a car on the way to the hospital to get admitted because he was coughing up blood and had a high fever. So did he die from covid19 or Uber. He wouldnt have been at that spot in the crosswalk if he hadnt gotten sick, he would have been safe at work. Still dont see any hoax here, sorry.

My family voted Democrat in protest.

They lived in a town that was run by a 'Paternalistic' Copper Mining Company.

The Mining Company determined and provided: employment, promotions, wages, housing, utilities, education, opportunity for your children and medical care.

If you were critical of or spoke out against the Company, you were 'screwed'.

The 'Company' controlled most things in local government, including elections, via the Republican officials. The 'ballots' were not secret.

p.s. - All this being said, my 'forefathers' (and mothers) would not have supported the present Democrat Party!

Well, this is more than "splitting hairs". When statistics are being incorrectly (re: fraudulently) created, collected, interpreted, whatever, for any kind of gain, it is wrong and dangerous. The "gain" we are seeing is the use of these numbers to re-direct medical supplies, create and institute vastly changing federal monetary policies, affect people's opinions of those in charge and actions are being taken in dealing with the crisis and creating innumerable hardship for small businesses, students and anyone or everyone in the private sector, it is a debacle that is far-reaching and not just semantics or hair splitting.

I have seen this thing from the beginning affect everything we normally do in this country and it just isn't right.

But, many people who are not affected and have pensions, tax-payer paid salaries, welfare, disability, etc., are not worried and don't feel the need to believe anything is that wrong. So be it. But, we are not being given truthful information and this is a factual statement.

At least we still have our Krags to play with!

Here in Illinois our governor fred flintstone gives his daily yabba dabba flu report. He never mentions recovered cases, just new, total, and fatalities. Not one reporter has asked how many have recovered. Control the mind and the asshole will follow.
