So coronavirus is definitely going to kill a few of us.

I love how you have to "qualify" for a COVID-19 test...like its a fucking house mortgage.

I hope all the old "elite" fucks get it. Probably wont though because karma is a fickle bitch that doesnt always come through

Exactly! If I have just a common cold, don’t want to catch it with weakened immune system.

If you are relatively healthy, I think the play might be to catch it early, recover and get a bunch of antibodies. If you catch it when everyone has it you risk reinfection in that two week period while your body builds antibodies and you are just dead.

People have to work and it just isn't that bad for most. So it is going to spread all around. 6 deaths is a very high number given the number of cases we have in the wild in the US. I believe most of those come from that nursing home in Washington. Thats really what this is, something that will kill older folks. Those are the people who need to worry. Look at the demographics of who dies and so forth, you really need to be 60+ or have a known underlying health condition to worry about this thing. 80+ are the people who need to seriously be concerned.

Anyone laughing about 40-70% of the people receiving this will be saying that until they actually know they're sick. However, they'll likely never know if they had corona because it will likely pass. I am ok with holing up for a few months but my girlfriend has all this ridiculous shit she likes to attend. lol

How do we know there have only been 6 deaths from this when almost no one has been tested? Isn’t safe to assume some others have died that weren’t diagnosed with Corona? It’s probably been here for months. My wife, kids and I have been sick for 1-2 months and we can’t seem to Kick whatever we’re passing to each other. Maybe these are just common colds or maybe we had/have the Corona but we will probably never fucking know. All I know is if I was 60+ years old I’d be scared shitless. Or if I was Druff.

I'm in an ER now. Hopefully won't get corona here.

Bad timing, only my 3rd time in ER in past 30 years.

Yeah they just went back and tested a guy who died 6 days ago in Washington state and sure enough, another death on the US tab. We have many thousands of cases. I won’t hazard a guess beyond that, but it’s a whole lot more than reported by factors of 10-1000

I went to the Bike and played poker a couple weeks ago, and then I got sick, and then the rest of my family got sick. We are all recovered now. I hope it was Coronavirus, just to have gotten it over with, but I doubt it.

At this point I dont see any way to avoid it. I have a kid in public school and my wife works in a big health clinic. Just gonna live my life, probably get it, and hope I am not in the 1% in my age group this actually affects. Neither me or my wife has any health issues, so should be fine. And I guess kids never get too sick, so that's good.

Sounds like they moved the decimal point a spot too far to the right, there is no way it is even half of that.
