That stat is just an estimate. We dont really know, do we? The rest of your comment...I agree 100%. I think antibody testing would be preferred.
pontficate , babbling, same thing..lololThe aircraft carrier Theodore Roosevelt has given us a unique opportunity to evaluate how many asymptomatic carriers one would find since the infection is running rampant on board, the ship's isolated completely, and almost 95% of the crew has been tested.
~60% of the crew is infected yet show no symptoms. So it's not an estimate.....it's fact and based on a rather unique situation where we have a completely isolated population that's got the infection running through it.
Coronavirus clue? Most cases aboard U.S. aircraft carrier are symptom-free
Sweeping testing of the entire crew of the coronavirus-stricken U.S. aircraft carrier Theodore Roosevelt may have revealed a clue about the pandemic: The majority of the positive cases so far are among sailors who are asymptomatic, officials say.www.reuters.com
Again, you need to spend some time reading instead of pontificating about shit you know little to nothing about.
That's his MO. Say something obviously wrong, get called out, claim he didn't mean it that way, get called out for not thinking, then stop replying.In other words, you didn't think it thru. You just threw it out there without realizing the legal implications of such action. And now you have no defense. Got it!
Yup, just like retweeting from a right wing nutbag "fire Faucci" then claiming he has no plans to do so and that persons tweet was just an opinion. OK asshole, then why did you retweet it?, why are you tweeting "liberate" to ONLY Democratic controlled states?. Epic fucking loser, if this shit-stain wins again in November I'll die of shock.That's his MO. Say something obviously wrong, get called out, claim he didn't mean it that way, get called out for not thinking, then stop replying.
The typical dipshits here think it’s a joke.The President of the United States is actually inciting domestic unrest during a National Emergency. Jesus. When will this be over.
Locker room talkThe typical dipshits here think it’s a joke.
How many times do you have to get to this point before you wise up?Thats not at all what I said.
Not practical or feasible. We need to focus on verifying immunity and let those with it back into the workforce.The problem with this virus is that up to 60% of people carrying it and spreading it are asymptomatic. You want to get the country back on track? Provide daily testing for every single person in the US that wants to leave the house, on the federal dime.
Not easy, and I also agree we need to verify immunity, but I believe I have read that they aren't even sure we develop full immunity after having it or how long any immunity lasts.Not practical or feasible. We need to focus on verifying immunity and let those with it back into the workforce.
I agree, but at the same time, there are jobs that simply cannot be done from home. Many times these are low wage jobs (not always). Assembly workers, shipping/receiving, cashiers, sales floor personnel, on-site management, maintenance crew, or anything that requires "hands on" work even if it's a "high skilled" or "knowledge worker" job.Not easy, and I also agree we need to verify immunity, but I believe I have read that they aren't even sure we develop full immunity after having it or how long any immunity lasts.
We should also move to a WFH paradigm as much as possible, and upgrade our infrastructure to support it.
States with bad virus outbreaks not issuing stay at home orders is like have a peeing section in a pool then bitching at pool management for not allowing people to pee in their section because others can go to the non-peeing section.I personally think states REQUIRING people to quarantine, and having police enforce it is a crossing the line type of thing. Imagine being arrested for exercising your fundamental right to freedom of travel (United States v. Wheeler, 254 U.S. 281 (1920))? Fucking ridiculous.
edit: as far as Trump goes, its a troll, which, unfortunately, will could be taken seriously by those on the far right.
Are you advocating doing nothing other then just have the govt work on a vaccine which would take 18 months, let it infect 200m people, kill 2-3 million, overwhelm our healthcare systems?? These were the projections.Really? Then why arent we always ordered to stay home? During flu season life doesnt stop, even when youre sick. Maybe we should suspend constitutional rights to prevent flu dealths? Why didnt we have ordered stay at home during the H1N1 crisis?
The problem with WFH, is that a lot of jobs simply are not doable that way. I worked in research all my life, and it simply could not be done by a WFH basis. I had to do experiments with hazardous chemicals, biological samples, etc., and work with specialized and very expensive equipment. Some of the writing and processing data could have been done remotely, but that is maybe on 25% of the job. I would make just a rough guess that maybe, 20 to 30 percent could work from home, if that.Not easy, and I also agree we need to verify immunity, but I believe I have read that they aren't even sure we develop full immunity after having it or how long any immunity lasts.

Yea, I watched the Q/A session after his rally (oops, news conference) yesterday. When asked about his tweets, he avoided the issue, and then went on a tirade about how awful the gun restrictions in Va are and how it violates the 2nd amendment.Waiting for the usual cadre of characters that always preach to us
"It doesn't matter what Trump says"
We all know who they are. Still sticking to that?? What would it take to wake you up? Additional outbreaks in those states? More COVID-19 deaths? People being killed at a protest?
A President calling for armed insurrection and it means nothing?? And don't give me that, "Trump didn't tell people to bring guns to an insurrection" Everyone knows what mentioning 2A in the context of an insurrection means.
Many of these idiots were armed with rifles, many of the assault type as well. You can just tell these fuck-wads would like nothing better than for any reason to start spewing lead. If your going to protest a rule or law WTF do you need to bring a rifle with you?. We all can predict how one of these "rallies" will end, someone will find that reason and people will die.Rich conservatives convince a bunch of poor ass white folks to go protest for them. Do this for people like the DeVos family so you can go back to your minimum wage job.
Let's be clear this is not concern for average American jobs its for saving the position of the wealthy. I don't recall the DeVos family ever voicing concern for the ever increasing wage gap since 1980.
