Why Did We Treat Coronavirus So Differently Than Other Epidemics? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 78629642 Canada 05/14/2020 08:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Spanish flu following WWI was far more severe than COVID-19. At least 50 million people died worldwide, 675,000 in the US, or roughly 10 times the COVID-19 tallies. Worse, mortality extended to all age groups including those under five and previously healthy people. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75791429 Americans practiced basic preventive measures but didn’t destroy the economy. The rapid comeback produced the Roaring Twenties. Hong Kong flu killed over 100,000 Americans, then with a population of 200 million. Yet Americans didn’t freak out. Schools stayed open since children weren’t in serious danger. Again, common-sense measures to avoid exposure to the virus, sanitize hands and surfaces, and protect the vulnerable were taken. But there was no lockdown, people went to work, and life pretty much went on. We have to do better or go down in history as the generation that let the American experiment fail. [link to ricochet.com (secure)] The cause of this was disinformation spread by China about the virus and what it could do. This in turn, sparked panic that caused governments worldwide to overreact. Part of the overreaction was due to the fact that many governments weren't prepared to deal with a pandemic and actually cut back or failed to properly fund pandemic preparation stockpiles. |

That's why there was no shutdowns with the other pandemics, hong kong flu, etc. even the swine flu H1N1 in 2009, nobody worked from home even 10 years ago. So blame the internetz. |

It’s extremely contagious and much more deadly than flu which is why things were shut done pretty quickly once that became generally accepted. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 5105995 United States 05/14/2020 08:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Because the chinese and the who told us it had a 7 percent mortality rate. Do the math - what is 7 percent of 300 million people? It is alot of dead people. Another part of it is no n95 masks in the us because china produces all of them and they hoarded them for chinese people. Our leaders should be crucified for letting china make all of our medicine and ppe. If we were prepared with ppe they wouldn't have had to shut down. The thing is when the germans figured out that its mortality is exactly like the flu they should have reopened every state. By not doing it they are going to destroy the western world. This was obviously an attack on western countries by china. The lies and manipulation of the who was an act of war. When the west goes down we need to make sure to take china with us. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75872305 In 2010, The Rockefeller Foundation published a document that descbribes four different future scenarios which the world could face in the near future and ways the government would deal with them. In one of those worldwide scenarios, which they called "Lock Step", they describe a world "Of tighter top-down government control and more AUTHORITARIAN leadership, with limited innovation and citizen pushback". IT'S WORD FOR WORD WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW AROUND THE WORLD. The lockstep scenario is caused by a world wide pandemic, followed by China locking down and the world leaders imposing similar measures shortly after. They go on to predict what comes next: "Even after the pandemic faded, this more authoritarian control and oversight of citizens and their activities stuck and even intensified" Here is the document, the Lock Step scenario start at page 18: [link to www.nommeraadio.ee] Thread: Rockfeller Foundation in 2010 predicted the worldwide lockdown - DOCUMENT INCLUDED The actual orginal "Operation Lockstep" papers were distributed in the 1970s.
