it's amazing to me that people would think getting the virus is less of a burden than wearing masks

I have top tier bad asthma and I'm kinda afraid I'll never be able to leave my house safely again, but on the bright side I got a promotion and a new job during the pandemic and I'm finally making a decent salary so it's pretty much all worth it am I right?
Poll finds a third of Americans think they handled COVID-19 better than Canada, and are also delusional
Anybody who advocates getting this virus and be bug chasers should get the virus themselves and report back on how that went.

The government declared another nationwide lockdown on Sunday and pleaded with the public to cooperate if a second wave of coronavirus infections is to be stemmed.Jung Eun-kyeong, the chief of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said, "Government officials and administrative orders alone cannot stop the daily activities of citizens. We urge the public to practice complete social distancing over the next week."The number of new infections in the Seoul metropolitan area increased even after the government gradually tightened social-distancing rules since Aug. 16, including keeping schools closed and banning gatherings of more than 50 people.
New cases there surged from 66 a day from Aug. 9 to 15 to over 240 a day during Aug. 23 to 29. Across the country the number was over 300 per day last week.But acting Seoul Mayor Suh Jung-hyup asked the capital's 10 million residents to "freeze" their activities as much as possible until Sept. 6.Coffee and other franchise outlets can only offer takeaways. Restaurants and food trucks must close at 9 p.m. Jeju Island has banned gatherings of more than three people.Meanwhile, Daegu in the southeast, which was a hotspot of the epidemic earlier this year, reported 30 new infections on Aug. 29, the most since March. A member of a church in the city attended and anti-government rally in Seoul on Aug. 15 and appears to have spread the virus among fellow worshipers, according to health officials.As of Monday morning, Korea reported another 248 new cases, bringing to the cumulative total to 19,947.
Top White House officials rang the alarm bell during a call with the nation’s governors on Monday, pleading with them to advise college presidents in their states to keep COVID-infected students on campus or risk another major outbreak. “We know that what happened across the South [in June] was primarily driven by 18-to-25 year olds, across the South, with asymptomatic spread,” said Dr. Deborah Birx, the Coronavirus Response Coordinator for the White House Coronavirus Task Force. “Sending these individuals back home in their asymptomatic state to spread the virus in their home town or among their vulnerable households could really recreate what we experienced over the June time frame in the south. So I think every university president should have a plan for not only testing but caring for their students that need to isolate.”The comments represent one of the most explicit acknowledgments to date that the White House’s aggressive push to bring students back to campus this fall has created serious risks for increased COVID transmission. It also underscores just how fragile the current situation is at college campuses across the country.

Can you explain the "200,000 excess deaths" you referenced in your recent tweet?We can observe trends from the number of deaths reported each year, on a weekly basis. When we see large deviations in the numbers for a time period, we call that excess deaths. Looking at 2020 since March, the raw number of excess deaths is 200,000 more people than a normal year. When we try to understand that, COVID-19 is the most rational and likely explanation. If you don't believe it's COVID-19, try to pinpoint why this year has been so different than any other. Why would a new disease that kills people not be the cause?

How does one determine if the myocarditis is from the virus and not the sudden weight gains these kids are going through? Either through intentional "bulking" or steroid use (or both?).https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/10/191023132204.htm

I'm amazed that NY's numbers have remained so low, given the population density. Wonder what the fall will look like.

Not sure yet but I think I'm willing to bet money that berlusconi dies.
Berlusconi got the 'rona, it's happening.
