| SUBJECT | Re: [Hangout - NYLXS] [ Docs ] New York City on Cusp of Second Wave
|
While everyone should be cautioned about interacting with the sick, It is not OK the way the Governor and Mayor of NYC are speaking.
I went to the web site for NYC stats and it is NOT the numbers that they are trying to scare people.
Even worse, they changed the look of the tables and charts so it LOOKS worse
BUT if you scan each date, the numbers are NOT terrible and while in a perfect world we want no one to have covid, we don’t live in a perfect world.
Where was all this angst over prior flu’s??
I know someone now who had covid this last week, along with his wife and middle school aged and high school children.
They all got better in 48 hours, and my friend was hospitalized because the idiot waited almost 2 weeks with every symptom before he sought medical help.
He had it all, every symptom, BUT they gave him Remdesivir, Decadron, and Zinc, another antibiotic, and he was better in 48 hours....
He is home after a couple of days, and he will be fíne.
This should be the norm, and this should be the cautionary tale, DON’T WAIT when you have the symptoms and you will get better.
This is NOT MARCH!!! And we have treatment now... WTH are they acting like we have nothing to do by lay down and die from Covid....
I don’t care about more cases, because people are screening for their jobs and other scenarios, not because they are necessarily sick.
It’s the hospitalizations and deaths that matter....
I’ve been tested 3 times, all negative, and I KNOW they are counting me as though I was 3 different people.... These numbers they put out are not to be trusted!!
ENOUGH of the fear factor.
