According to the CDC the number of deaths related to this year's seasonal flu is 23,000 to 60,000.
So how many die in an average flu season?
It’s not close to 60K.

quote:who's pretending? it hasn't and to state otherwise is just pure speculation, especially considering the asymptomatic nature of this virus. people are still going to work. news flash - people are still socializing.
Pretending that the distancing doesn’t have an enormous impact on numbers is just silly
i can't believe, with everything that has happened in the last few days, there are STILL chicken little people. this virus hit nyc the hardest for reasons still unknown (density is an oversimplification) and the rest of the country has hardly noticed the outbreak at all

IHME model has readjusted from 2.2 million US death to 60K
That is categorically untrue

Dipshit, that’s 60k with full social distancing
Social distancing has nothing to do with the number of deaths and was never intended to. It was to flatten the curve.
You shouldn't be so quick to call others dipshit

LOL! Grocery stores are packed. Home improvement stores are packed. You really think "social distancing" is having any real affect on this?
Agreed. Not only that but considering the particles are rumored to stay alive for 3 hours, you could be 6 feet apart and walk right into their germ plume.

We have a vaccine for flu too.

Also the majority of that 60k truly died of underlying condition but had chineee flu so these numbers are bull shite too. Probably like 15-20k legit deaths.

I have seen pictures of her when she was young, with long hair, and she actually looked like a girl.... but then again, so does Trevor Lawrence.

Dipshit, that’s 60k with full social distancing. We don’t shut everything down to mitigate seasonal flu.
Is corona really that much worse than the flu that we needed to commit economic suicide?

AHHH RUsh again hits homer, he says why do modelers get to adjust their predictions, he said "betters can't go back on a 5,000$ bet on the Steelers. Perfect analogy we bet the US economy on their predictions.
LOL

1970 people died yesterday which made it america's #1 medical cause of death for that day.
heart disease, which kills 650k people a year, would average 1780 deaths a day

But only 70 people really died because of Corona, the rest died from other causes but had the Chinese Flu.

this meme is retarded and being parroted by people who dont understand medicine
if you have a disease that decreases o2 in the blood and you are already at risk for ischemic heart disease, then you get this disease and die from a heart attack because your body didnt get enough oxygen to the heart tissue, the disease killed you.

Rush said it, it has to be true.
Look, I’m a staunch conservative but Rush is fighting for his life. He is taking some string chemo. I respect his opinion, but he’s being very loose with the facts.
