To be fair, Italy, Spain, France, the UK and Russia (if we want to count them as a first world country) also didnt exactly cover themselves in glory. They did learn from their initial failure though, while the U.S. seems to have doubled down on it..

There are some studies suggesting that herd immunity may be impossible because we might not develop long term immunity. A lot of people in Spain/Italy no longer have antibodies so they may end up reinfected. On the other hand, T cells seem to kick in if you're reinfected so symptoms probably aren't as bad. Anyway, the jury is still out on that. At the end of the day, the main goal is to ensure that we don't overload our hospitals. Also, we still don't know the long term effects of COVID yet.

It is pretty sad that America is struggling immensely whereas the rest of the first world countries seem to have figured it out. If we had done the right things earlier on, the economy would be significantly stronger. The American people fucked up and we should all be ashamed of ourselves. I've never been this disappointed with the country in my lifetime. I feel like we live in a third world country.

What does that even mean?



No herd immunity is utter bullshit. It would be the only virus in history that breaks the laws of biology.

Fauci said we didnt need masks in March. It was a mistake we chose early on but were no worse off than Europe if we just reopen. Unfortunately the Democrats have raised levels of panic to mythical levels with their cult of feelings.

If you understand anything about evolution you see two different pathways, a path forward and a dysgenic path. If the shutdown doesnt stop permanently except for maybe a large spike the costs will be completely incalculable.

Daily case numbers in Europe in recent days: around 12k, with half of that coming from Russia alone. The EU countries stand at below 6k cases per day. Meanwhile, the US stands at about 60k daily cases. (And that's with a smaller population than Europe-minus-Russia.)

I agree that shutdowns are not a permanent solution and would at some point lead to apocalyptic economic damage. But letting the virus spiral out of control is not a feasible option either.

That also brings up something none of these feel cultists want to bring up... demographic differences. They have to nerve to blame racism for the fact that their low IQ voting slaves are dying at 4x the rate of whites to covid. The average iq of america has dropped from 102 to 95 over the past thirty years.

Our country is blowing its brains out with dysgenic welfare eugenics. And the Democrats are directly responsible.

Or perhaps it's because lawyers and programmers have an easier time working from home or in a socially distanced environment than the delivery guy or the care worker in a nursing home. :rolleyes:

Youve clearly never taught in an inner city.

Both of our ideas are likely true at once

Quote (Black XistenZ @ Jul 14 2020 08:42am)

It's simply a fact that professional, knowledge-based jobs tend to be more compatible with working from home than non-academic jobs, and that menial jobs where social distancing is inherently impossible are disproportionately carried out by people of color.

There's really no need to resort to IQ or stupid behavior to explain the observed discrepancy in how covic affects whites and non-whites.
