LOL. Just because someone once had an event about something almost 30 years ago doesn’t mean those ideas are coming to pass or that anyone gives a rats about them. They’re not and they don’t.
Pandemic simulations became a thing in the early 2000s. They’ve been going on ever since. You seem to think the one 3 months before the Covid pandemic was the first and only one. Nope. Not even close.
Says the person who has not even taken the time to read into the plan.
It wasn't "just someone", as it was literally the United Nations. Some of what was discussed at the summit has been implemented due to COVID, such as the rise in remote working which to me isn't such a bad thing, but there are other items which are (such as moving people into cities/suburbs versus rural areas, which has been happening at record pace).
I bet you think weather warfare is fake too even though the Royal Army and US military has admitted to using it before (the US did in Vietnam). Lastly post those other simulations which also coincided with the Military World Games held in Wuhan, China in Oct. 2019. You won't be able to.
Does that mean the thousands of people who are sick, who are in the hospital, or who have been recovering from COVID-19 for months will be miraculously cured?
I might have to change my vote ...
as someone sitting at home recovering from COVID i can say with certainty that once this election is over, there will be no vested interest in the idiotic media and the wacked out left to scare people.
I don't believe the MSM concern for the virus dissipates at all if Trump wins.
I don't think it goes away. I think they change how they report it. Up until now they focus on case count and present it in a way as if the end is near. They completely ignore or bury the facts about how much we test, the insane sensitivity level we test at, the extreme over cycling to find dead virus cells or such low amount of virus load and the fact the death rate has dropped so much. They ignore how much better we are able to treat people who come down with the virus. They simply try to amp up fear and panic, rather than providing all the context and important info. Once Biden wins, I believe they will start to change that presentation style to something less "sky is falling" and start replacing it with those other factors and how there is light at the end of the tunnel. Green shoots if you will.
With the election ending tonight, the media will be done with their extreme coverage of Covid in a nothing but panic and fear mode. That in itself will help the country. When we stop trying to make people afraid to get up in the morning, better things happen. I am so looking forward to the change in the media's coverage tactics.
My hope is that we'll have someone who will have more respect for public health efforts than our current presidential incumbent and will at least step out of the way to let the professionals do their jobs. It's a portion of the hard headed citizenry who must have been traumatized by a science teacher and therefore don't believe in science that I worry about.

I think you're more likely to see Trump and his sidekick Giuliani doing middle of the night infomercials. Giuliani already has infomercials on virus protection software, but Trump will need a different schtick because virus protection obviously isn't his thing. If I come across that, I'll do what I do now when Trump comes on and change the channel.
Covid mania won't end until we get a national plan (testing, contact tracing) to actively lessen the virus successfully like many other countries have done such as Taiwan (7 deaths), New Zealand (25 deaths), South Korea, Japan, and so on. Crazy that we have 230K plus deaths now in USA with no plan and rapidly rising numbers!?

Hilarious. Almost as funny as Trump saying covid would magically disappear last spring.
You think it's going to disappear just because he wants it to? Do you think the media - which unfortunately highlights disastrous news - is going to stop suddenly stop talking about covid?

Easy. The US is far more diverse than those homogeneous countries (especially Taiwan, South Korea, and Japan) and also much larger population wise and geographically. That and if Trump would have placed some of the measures other countries placed earlier on then he would have been called a dictator. He was already called racist by many for the China travel ban.
I hope not I didn’t vote and regret not doing so
I planned to vote President Trump before COVID
After his handling of the situation could not bring myself to
I do hope those that have yet to vote and can vote do vote for resolution to COVID
We need the misinformation, the corruption, the false hope, and diluting science over religion
Biden may not be the best choice we have
It’s the only other choice we have to lead us through this crisis
