As if he wasn't maniacal enough before now he thinks he's invincible! :/

he said he might be immune

but i think to be immune you first have to not get the virus

:joker:

bots 06-10-2020 06:09 PM

all the voices we are hearing at the moment are saying immunity is short term at best even with a vaccine, so unless he plans a monthly injection of the new super drug (which actually wouldn't surprise me) he could get it again in a few months time

I understand everyone is different but it has been vastly blown out of proportion for being a deadly lethal disease.

It has a death rate of like 0.1%, and so unless you are vulnerable it’s extremely extremely unlikely to impact you at all.

If people choose to be unhealthy then they are at worse risk, but people making the choice to eat badly/not exercise/stay fit shouldn’t allow the rest of society to suffer imo

Tell the families of the million people who have died that it's been blown out of proportion.

I do think something like this is a genuine concern, it's been far too short a timeframe from diagnosis-hospitalisation-recovery to think he's totally fine now

Agreed, especially in the risk categories he's in. A victory march at this stage is way too premature.

I remember Obama writing something about the election campaigns and talking about how exhausting they were, and he's in shape, gets regular exercise and wasn't fighting off a virus that is potentially deadly. He's nowhere near his full symptoms and he'll be wearing himself down to campaign. It's a dodgy cocktail.

Dead right.
He'll be possibly presenting himself as some superhero.

That's what makes me think he never had it in the first place. He just wants people to think he's fitter than Biden

Million people out of almost 8 billion In a year... that’s about 0.01% of the population..

Any death is a big deal personally, but you can’t sit here and act like the world needs stopping. What’s next, telling the world to lockdown and ban all coverages because tens of millions of people are dieing from lung cancer because of smoking Each year

Ammi 07-10-2020 08:14 AM

...well I guess that my thoughts are...that 0.01% when applied to the population is an awful lot of lives and an awful lot of deaths that could have been prevented if all possible precautions were taken as medically advised....this virus needs the world to comply with ...it needs the non vulnerable to help preserve life for the vulnerable wherever possible...and it won’t always be possible, I know...but there won’t be many of us that don’t have ‘vulnerable’ in our lives, either with friends or family...and we hope that others around us will comply to help to preserve their lives...

This complacent dismissiveness of deaths is irritating to me.
It's not just the deaths either Ammi, it's the devastation of the loved ones of those lives lost.
What does that do to the percentage.
For each person, there's unknown numbers left grieving and devastated too.

Knowing lives were lost before their time.

However, there's another side too.
We see no figures for this, I'd doubt anyone in authority is even collating any.
However people are left with disabilities,terminal health conditions.
Some needing transplants as organs are damaged..
Even brain damage.

Plus the other effects limiting quality of life to those suffering more acute long covid.

Put all those categories into the effects of this virus.
IF, anyone in power will ever present full and more true figures as to the overall destruction this virus brings to lives and to their loved ones too.
Then see where percentages are.

I don't like lives lost reduced to percentages.
I like even less our government not even offering condolences to the bereaved.
I just will never even attempt to diminish the losses of lives to this virus.

It's one cruel virus for certain, in that in the main the lives it takes, are more likely those vulnerable with other health conditions or the elderly, even not safe in Care homes!!.

It does however impact others lives if they contract it severe enough, to cause them poor health for months or years.
Or even more terminally.

also a valid reason to do as much to protect as much people we can from this virus

Absolutely Nicky.
It is.

Not that our lot are..
They've taken away the full support that was in place officially.
In fact they rarely even bother to mention the most vulnerable and elderly.

On an avergae day in the world

150,000 humans die

6000 per hour

These numbers include death, violence, disease and famine, as well as many other causes of death.

seems high but there are 6,000,000,000 of us

bots 07-10-2020 11:10 AM

we don't even know what the long term effects are on people that report next to no symptoms yet. Sometimes these things don't show up for years

like what Joey said, it is not just about the deaths, also how it leaves people with disabilities, terminal illnesses, requiring new organs, more need for transplants

working together to beat corona, means we can prevent that suffering for many people

corona does not care wether you are left or right wing, corona affects all of us

Oh crumbs.
Bringing in the religious topic too.

He'll stoop to any truly lowest level to present himself as some ' anointed' one.

A blessing from God..
Really.
Yet people admire this pompous individual.

and now Chris Cuomo is getting some hate too on youtube, just because he said trump's diagnosis of covid is fake, which can have some truth, coming from a covid survivor

bots 08-10-2020 08:28 AM

The drug is basically a cleaned up and concentrated version of blood plasma, and it will work in some circumstances but has been shown not to work at all in others, so it is what it is

The World is going mad Nicky.

It's incredible now, the kind of individuals that people support and put into power
Then fall for every bit of nonsense they tell them too.

However, to bring in God now.
On here even, as well as at large in this Country, people claiming miracles or God helping them in bad times, are dismissed as fanatics and filling others heads with nonsense.

When this guy says something like this.. he'll likely get supported.

It doesn't surprise me that Cuomo will get hate.
The people talking more sense as rationally as they can.
They will get the ridicule.

To me it's just all going crazy and really sad.

yeah and his brother NY governor Andrew also got hate, got called a SS Gestapo just because he announced new stricter measures more in brooklyn, orthodox community (in which honestly there were still major church gatherings which is not good these times), also disgusting how they can call out on his late grandparents too with some insults i read on youtube)

...the words of someone who lost their partner to Trump...

To all the over 208,000 Americans who lost loved ones to this virus — I stand by you, with you, holding your hand. Unfortunately it did dominate our lives didn’t it? It dominated Nick’s family’s lives and my family’s lives. I guess we “let it” — like it was our choice?? Unfortunately not everyone is lucky enough to spend two days in the hospital. I cried next to my husband for 95 days watching what COVID did to the person I love. It IS something to be afraid of. After you see the person you love the most die from this disease you would never say what this tweet says. There is no empathy to all the lives lost. He is bragging instead. It is sad. It is hurtful. It is disgraceful.
