My fear is that this is going to drag on and on and on... until the next flu season... where we roll into a new lockdown. Is this the new normal? --Keith --- Coronavirus: Bill Gates calls for 10 more weeks of lockdown “Virologist” Bill Gates thinks the country needs to be locked down for 10-weeks — no beaches, no hiking, no restaurants in towns with zero cases for miles and miles. “Until the case numbers start to go down across America — which could take 10 weeks or more — no one can continue business as usual or relax the shutdown. Any confusion about this point will only extend the economic pain, raise the odds that the virus will return, and cause more deaths,” he wrote in an op- in The Washington Post on March 31. https://www.forbes.com/sites/kenrap...down-lead-to-a-great-depression/#41cdafc74d23 https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/bill-gates-heres-how-to-make-up-for-lost-time-on-covid-19/2020/03/31/ab5c3cf2-738c-11ea-85cb-8670579b863d_story.html
Bill can fuck himself Anybody who thinks prolong quarantine is a good idea, can also fuck themselves If you're sick, stay the fuck home If you're dying stay the fuck home. Everybody else, go back to work. The virus is here to stay and we'll see the seasonal cases every year. Lets move on.
Wow I guess when you have billions of dollars the media will report what ever you say. 10 more weeks? Haha People will break down if this goes past May 1st!!!!! And the economy will need 100% of GDP stimulus of $20 Trillion. Yes I said that $20 trillion.
Bill Gates have failed the American people. I wanted to post this in a separate thread, but this will do. So why do I say that? Bill is an epidemic expert. He is intelligent and he has shitload of money. He correctly predicted back in 2015 in a TED talk that we are not ready for a virus like this. Then back in last October they did a simulation what would happen if a virus like this comes, and the result was that yes, we are not ready, the virus won. So what does Bill do when he hears about the Wuhan outbreak 2 months later? Big fucking nothing. What does Bill do when in January IN HIS BACKYARD, Seattle we have the first cases? Even bigger fucking nothing. Now let's be proactive here and this is what he could have done, as opposed to Average Joe, without his money and name recognition, but with the same foresight: 1. He could have called governors and the Prez and told them that the shit is coming. Would they have acted on it? The Prez wouldn't for sure, but maybe some governor could have started to order ventilators and stuff. Hey, even if just one governor listened to him, that would be a win and saved lives. 2. He could have taken out full page ads in major news papers calling out for the danger. 3. He could have hired a few experts and made them write a How to do pfd file/book and put it up on the internet. A guideline by the experts for the common people and also for leaders. 4. He could have bought up ventilators, make or started companies that make those. 5. He could have made a Virus Youtube channel with all kind of useful and relevant info. (how to wash your hands,etc.) 6. He could have thrown a few millions at the top 10 research labs as long as they start research on the virus immediately. Did he do any of those? Nope. Bill, you have failed America... He wasted 2 months, not raising awareness, research and supplements. I am not saying all of those would have made a difference, but some sure would.
The total number of new cases reported daily in the U.S. have started to level off. Deaths & hospitalization rates will lag, but this is a really good sign if it continues. Hopefully the data will support slowly reopening the economy towards the end of April as planned.
