That's a very helpful link, I had no idea sites like that existed.
If the New Year baying contest had involved a million "Trump-haters" spread widely across America I'd be horrified at the foolishness and bad taste involved. What I saw in the video was around 300 people gathering by arrangement New York to provide news footage as a joke. I doubt anyone did that anywhere unless there were news teams around to film them doing it.

She was sitting in front of her $24,000 freezer bragging about her $13.00 a pint ice cream, while there were people out here wondering how that were going to feed their children that night! She needed to be in Washington doing her job! It was at the very least, in the light of the times now, in very bad taste.

I agree, I think they did it to get on the news but there is actually something called Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Trump derangement syndrome (TDS) is a derogatory term for criticism of, or negative reactions to United States President Donald Trump that are alleged to be irrational and have little regard towards Trump's actual positions or actions taken.

You left out the actual information in that Wikipedia article: "The term has been used by Trump supporters to discredit criticism of his actions". It's a term of partisan abuse, not a medical diagnosis.

The count of cases has a use, it's a way of comparing last week to this week. What it's counting is anyone's guess but so long as they stick to the same reporting requirement from one week to the next then it's helpful.
I worry that it's subject to political manipulation at any level, from a town or city massaging the number to a country lying its head off, like Indonesia. Russia rather depressingly lied for quite a while too.
The other problem is the half of the world which has no access to any formal medical unit which is reporting upward. If "cases" in general means people ill enough to go to a formal medic for help, and has a test, and is found positive for the virus, then the published cases total is missing a growing proportion of people who are in fact in need of treatment for Covid-19 but have no access to tests or nursing. The world's rural workers and the world's urban slum dwellers are neither of them being counted. I would not be surprised if they already amount to most of the infected sick, and their proportion will increase for months to come.
The same problem will arise eventually for the number killed by the virus. If the bodies aren't tested they're not counted then either.
To get a perspective on 200,000 deaths so far worldwide, that's one death to Covid-19 for every 285 deaths from other causes. It wouldn't show as even a blip on a graph. It is a trivial figure. If it goes up a hundred times it will be a quarter of all deaths in 2020 which is still only a bump on the road. We will have run over a dog, not hit a lamp post.

Who here thinks/believes releasing this Covid-19 was a accident?
I've read a article from Bill O'Reilly - he has you thinking for sure.
Could refer back to Spot's conspiracy theory.

I merely wondered what proportion of top-level politicians in America had been given antibody injections from survivors, to protect those politicians from catching the disease, that's all. None of them appear to be socially distancing and not one of them appears to have become infected. Their lack of distancing etiquette and the large number of them doing it suggests at least some of them should be ill by now.
Just asking whether "releasing this Covid-19 was a accident" assumes it was released. It's one of those problems where having no evidence that it was doesn't mean it wasn't. If you can suggest a way to prove that it wasn't, we'll go and find it for you. I don't think it's provable that it wasn't, it's calling for evidence that something didn't happen. It's a notorious problem that has bedevilled this site since it opened.
The simple fact is that if there were evidence that the virus had been deliberately or accidentally released then it would be the leed headline in every news agency in the world. That's how and when you'll know such a release happened. People wanting fame and attention can claim it happened, but I think the assumption must be that it needs proof before it can become an accepted truth. Until then it's what we call bias and prejudice put about by bogus shysters.
I don't think I've ever suggested an official or accepted story was untrue unless there was evidence that it was untrue.

This article was written to bring together all of the wild suggestions into one place Patsy, I hope reeding the whole piece helps.
From the early stages of the coronavirus outbreak, conspiracy theories about the origin and scale of the disease were spread on online platforms.
Among these were the false claim that the virus was part of a Chinese "covert biological weapons programme", and a baseless claim that a Canadian-Chinese spy team had sent coronavirus to Wuhan.
The claim that the virus was man-made has been pushed by numerous conspiracy groups on Facebook, obscure Twitter accounts and even found its way on to primetime Russian state TV.
And months into the outbreak, not only have these theories not faded away, but new, unverified claims have been promoted by government officials, senior politicians and media outlets in China and the US.

So. Let me try to be sufficiently accurate as to avoid libel. Not an easy task.
This is a news reporter equivalent of Harvey Weinstein or President Trump we're talking about in terms of payments to women who refused thereafter to press charges for sexual misbehavior? Including one payment said to amount to $32m? The main difference being that Harvey Weinstein ended up in jail for that sort of thing while President Trump merely got quoted a lot about grabbing them by the pussy because they couldn't do anything about it and so on, and this reporter chap just got ignored and forgotten by most of the people who'd ever heard of him?
If $32m is small change for Mr O'Reilly then he's clearly done well out of self-promotion. Had he an engaging manner on screen or was he just a git?

I didn't say I trusted him or respected him - I just read a article from O'Reilly.
Spot thanks for the article.
Our count has jumper to 6500 and still on a complete lock down.
We're at 100 degrees & climbing - above ground pools are in demand & can't keep up with the orders. Kids are home - no parks - no public pools & it's 105 degrees today - the water out of the hose is hot - not refreshing.
"They" say the virus dies in the heat - shortens it's time on a surface - I'm good with that.

I'm quite sure the virus dies quicker in the heat, yes. Where it stays alive and grows is inside infected people, that's why you're keeping your distance. People are wet bags full of living virus and every now and then they fling some out in wet gobbets. Don't breathe those in before the sunshine kills them. If they reach a surface and fry, that's all to the good. Being sneezed or coughed or salivated over isn't good, it's bad. Don't kiss strangers outdoors, take them home and disinfect them first.
Given so much daytime heat, do you ever get power cuts?

NO - we don't have power outage due to the extreme heat & air running & all fans on etc.
We have our storm season in August & you might experience power outage.
Our electric Co. has in the past shut off electricity for being past due - with out air conditioning/power a few elderly died last year. Of course with this virus this year the electric Co. and water Co. have agreed to leave everything up & running whether your behind in paying - households with no income will be so buried in bills this stimulus check will do nothing for many.
My electric bill for summer months runs me @ $300.00 a month so you can see how these bills will accumulate quickly. That's why we have sooooo many protesting to reopen.

Perhaps you could describe his history in a few words, Snooze. A spontaneous encomium, some sort of tribute to his style, his content and his times. I shall sit back in pleasant anticipation, I enjoy hearing your thoughts.
No.

None of them appear to be socially distancing and not one of them appears to have become infected. Their lack of distancing etiquette and the large number of them doing it suggests at least some of them should be ill by now.
We do not in fact know if plasma antibody injections from survivors actually works. In NYC the infection rate, at this low stage of testing, is approximately 20%. Of those, approximately 80% will have no symptoms or sail through them. Of the 20% who are symptomatic, most will recover. A few will die.
The crisis began when the hospitals and staff were overwhelmed. At the best of times, NYC hospitals are approximately 90% full. If, in the Very Beginning, field hospitals, vacant hotels and college dorms were turned into hospital rooms, with enough staff gotten any way possible people might not have become as hysterical as they are. And they ARE. The situation called for quick, immediate action from competent people in charge, not clowns.

You'd think it would have at least been tried by now, don't you think? Worth a shot at least.
I hope you don't get daft ideas like volunteering as a nursing assistant.

and if you read it you see that there was also Bush derangement syndrome and Obama derangement syndrome.

I haven't heard much about people saying the virus was made in the lab. Most of the stories I'm hearing are that they were studying it in the lab and it got out and after it got out they hid that fact from the rest of the world.

There's an excellent political cartoon with "he tells it like it is" and it's probably fortunate that I can't post photos here.

Our Lakes are full to capacity - thousands - some vehicles are from out of state.
What don't these people get?
Have they not heard about this virus?
Is it they don't believe there is a virus?
Vegas is reopening Friday - too soon?
I feel these gatherings will create a round 2 lockdown.
I'm disgusted

You're definitely allowed.
I still think Barry Blitt's New Yorker cover The Politics of Fear is unbeaten among political cartoons, it said everything about the dirty campaign in 2008.

Hang in there, and stay safe.
My step son drives a truck, and is making regular runs between here and L.A.
Says he has been driving I-15 with Cruise Control set at 65 mph, and the last month or so, he's never once had to slow down going through Vegas. Kind of eerie to see it so quiet.
I plan to stay home until mid May, except for getting out for my daily walks.

OH it's pure frustration - we all want the best out come -" We're in this together" and our lakes are full - @ 6 people per boat - beach is full.. blah blah
I had a melt down the other day - I couldn't go to the store - cried - OMG..
Lars is your wonderful vacation still a go?
I'm sure Vegas was really weird empty - my Nephew had the heart of Seattle all to himself - he said it was eerie.

Oh, no. We ended up having to cancel. Firstly, we didn't draw any of the seats to the New Year shindig in Vienna, there was so much uncertainty about how things will play out this year, We decided not to commit to the expenses that would be required up front.
Besides, the farm out east looks like it will take a bit more dough that we had thought at first.

Lars Good decision
We'll see how the year plays out?
The economy scares me. I'm retired so finance wise I'm on a fixed income - I'm scared for others. I fear of receiving a call for a loan & I can't do it. Uncomfortable position to be in - but I'll have to say no. So, we'll see how this year plays out?
I have old ration books (partial use of stamps) from the Depression era - do you think we're headed towards another Depression?
Spot - Depression or not? curious
