Spain, Italy and Iran probably don't think this is a manufactured crisis, the OP needs to spend some time in in one of these ICU's in Brooklyn or Manhattan. Comparing this to the common cold should make you leave the troll thread.
Covid-19 is a member of the corona virus family which the common cold belongs to.
It's literally just a new strain of the common cold.
Italy's death rate figures are bogus. They're lumping old people dying of natural causes into the covid-19 heap. The pathologists have not had time to confirm who has died of what, they're just lumping all people dying into the covid 19 category.
Italy has a ton of old people too, kind of like Japan.
Old people dying off is nothing to be concerned about, unless you're an elderly person.

As bad as the numbers in the US are now and will shortly become, I anticipate numbers in Brazil will soon be far higher.
210 million people of whom over 50 million live in poverty
25 million are packed into top 4 cities
Unlike Africa, median age is surprisingly high at 32 years
Likely cases will not be able to be counted and officials will have to use the number of grave sites.
Seriously? A co-worker I sat across from for 4 years has been sick for weeks and died from it this morning. Early 40s, no pre-existing conditions. My husband is sick from it right now.
Ain't a damn person in this thread donating anything....You might say you are or will.....but nope....
I already said I will need the two guaranteed checks and potential others, especially with summer camp for my district being up in the air due to things being as up in the air as they are right now. I cannot get a fourth job at the moment (my second job for now is in its off-season until July and my third job I cannot do due to my first until the next break) because my first job is inconsistent on which days I am needed. It is once a week for sure, but I can be called in more and "expected to be at home 'working.'"
LOL, sure there is!! Go thru the family members, I dont think they are withholding the names to anyone.
Famous and well known people are now dying. It doesn't take much intelligence to understand that if people who are well known have died in the last two days, there are people dying....
Are these posters really saying that the 1,000 deaths are fake? Watch the numbers tic up and quite soon many of us will know people who have it. Then we will know people who die from it. Even in our small towns in W. Mass. there are starting to be a lot of cases...the Mayor has it!
No matter what the number is, some of these sociopaths will claim it is small.
From the evidence so far, the COVID-19 virus can be transmitted in ALL AREAS, including areas with hot and humid weather.
