    like telling a friend of a friend story is to be believed. Someone drives across the country to Help someone move out of an apartment in nyc from LV, Nevada? Would be cheaper to pay for the movers to come in and do the move, Rather than to drive cross country.
     
  3. For centuries it was ship's captains who understood best how to deal with a sickness aboard ship. They split the ship fore and aft into clean and unclean sections and went to absolute quarantine. Granted, this only worked marginally well all the way into the 20th century, but doing nothing had guaranteed results and created ghost ships.

    Consider the recent shipboard Covid cases. There's a reason it didn't sweep through the whole craft in every case.

    The one thing it should not be is a political issue. Because in politics disputes aren't always concerned with accuracy, just winning the narrative. A formula for disaster. We were overdue for a global plague, and our only hope at the moment is to ride it out. Waiting for a vaccine is moronic when you consider how many died waiting for an HIV vaccine, that still has not happened.

    What also has not changed is the commonality of most new HIV cases. We could have beaten HIV with quarantines. But it became a political issue instead.

  4. I've driven across the US just to get laid. Under the pretense of helping someone move.

    lol*. Well, that wasn’t for a move and upon return the talk you would not be about how people weren’t wearing masks. You would b3 telling your friends about the sex, Would you have made such a drive to nyc, while this virus is going on, To get laid or to help someone move? You would probably be better off taking care of yourself and loving yourself more, with your hand in the current situation than making the drive,
     
  6. She was worth the drive. I didn't have to worry about any viruses at the time.

    Coronavirus: Experts warn 1.2 million children could die during COVID-19 lockdown

    Almost 1.2 million children could die as a result of the coronavirus lockdown, new modelling shows.

    While evidence suggests children are less likely to be severely affected by the coronavirus, the indirect effects of the outbreak could be deadly, experts say.

    A new paper published in the medical journal, The Lancet, this week warns that if mothers and children living in low and middle-income countries are unable to access routine health care or get enough food, the increase in child and maternal deaths will be “devastating”.

    I wore my mask, and practiced safe distance. But as an American, I do feel our freedom, is being jeopardized. Democracy is not the government controlling our lives. Some business shut down others stay open. No economy can survive a total shut down. Politicians are still receiving their checks, and a little to boot in the stimulus package. Who knows how long this could last. Then was comes next? Willing to hear all theories, even conspiracy theory.

    But the virus did sweep many of the cruise liners, all because the air conditioning in each cabin was pumping it out !!!

    Says the Hip Forums economic director. You can believe what you want. I don't believe anything you say, Your credibility took a dump months ago.

  13. Indeed, an excellent point. The Navy ships were better able to contain the problem. Can you imagine an aircraft carrier with a virus run amok? We also had nuclear infiltration training to ensure the ship's ventilation didn't ingest fallout. I can't imagine a cruise ship knowing or caring about such things.

    Another way sickness was handled at sea was to simply toss the infected overboard. That happened probably more often than a shipboard quarantine in centuries past.
     
  14. It's just darling that you come here, of all places, looking for credibility!

    I come here to avoid it.

    Lolz!!! @ CNN

    Greta Thunberg added to CNN’s expert coronavirus panel, Twitter erupts

    An upcoming CNN town hall on the coronavirus pandemic will feature 17-year-old Greta Thunberg alongside a panel of medical experts.

    The program, “Coronavirus Facts and Fears”, also includes CNN broadcaster Sanjay Gupta, 50, former Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, 71 and former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention director Richard Besser, 60. CNN anchor Anderson Cooper, 52, will host alongside Gupta

  17. You just don't realize the value of a pampered, sheltered child's opinion.

    sorry, your story just seemed rather unbelievable during this virus lock down. I question the credibility of this story you were told, not you. *shrug*. I believe you were told this, but not the story, . But you don’t have to believe anything I say. It is ok by me, :). I didn’t know I was an economics director either. Where did you come I up with this title and how? Lol

    What was there ever to argue in this particular thread anyway?

    You still believe it wasn't inevitable the virus wasn't going to get to every corner of the globe anyway?

    You have 36 million unemployed now. Come November, Trump will just be the lesser of two evils again.

    Average voters aren't going to believe liberals will run the economy better, that will be the most important part of the election

    If Biden wins, who will be actually running the country? Wont be him, and he will probably pick a token VP. So ones like Pelosi will get too much influence

    They had 3 years, and a sex offender with Dementia is the best the Democrats could come up with?
