Are you saying every single government in the world is wrong and you are right? Interesting.

Actually Japan and The UK, but it appears they are backtracking big time. There’s plenty of examples out now that it’s no longer a theory.

Obviously those estimates would be adjusted downward if these guidelines were in place.
Not only where his models wrong other experts models where wrong. why not give two numbers one number if the distancing takes place and one if it does not. I can show you video of him saying that this corona virus is no threat to america.

thats the genuis of it if the amount of people he says does not die he has already setup the reason well the distancing worked. his numbers keep changing and more then once or twice. he overblew the aids epidemic i heard in the 1980's. I heard his attitude is that in order to get people to do what you want you have to scare them. thats why he said millions at first.

Points 2 and 3 pretty accurately show that these measures are indeed "flattening the curve." You don't get it. We surmised that in your first post. You can stop now.

Do you know of anyone in the world who may be more qualified to be an expert on this? Keep in mind this is a relatively new virus and there’s new info on it everyday so Einstein won’t be able to help us on this. Even if you are given the benefit that Dr Fauci may be wrong, but who else is more right? I’d like some names.

Dr drew and Dr ron paul said this virus was overblown. Not to say this is not worse then the flu but its not as bad as people are making it out to be or worth the messures we are taking it.

Dr fauci said we need to keep doing what we are doing until the virus is gone. well it will never be 100 percent gone.

The way the goverment is treating this is that its all or nothing. You can go too far with regulations and causing at least 7 million people out of work who may have difficulty finding work again is not worth it.

we could of had people still go to work with regulations.

FYI Dr. Drew just apologized a few days ago saying the virus was overblown. It’s all over the news.

Dr Drew is your counter? Really?

And now he is trying to use copyright/DCMA to take down those YouTube videos that show how wrong he was.

huh?

How do you know that people get the flu on holiday weekends? What is this about 33k cases a day? Here's a chart with daily tracking of new cases, they are still going up, probably because a number of states are still allowing people to gather in groups https://www.statista.com/statistics/...ricans-by-day/

Here is a quick description of how/why social distancing works:

His guess was closer then Dr Fauci. If someone has a bad heart condition or heart attack and has coronavirus the death is listed as corona virus. In one country someone got hit by a bus and had corona virus and it was listed as a death by cornona virus. some of the people dying anyway from non corona virus issues are listed as corona virus deaths.
