Covid 19 Medical Updates: Scientists Announce Two Strains and a Higher Death Rate

Link

Short article but here are some bullet points anywho.

  • The strains have been named Covid 19 L and Covid 19 S.

  • Covid 19 L is the most aggressive and deadly strain, but appears to be burning itself out. Typically, aggressive viruses burn out quickly, in part because the seriousness of the illness forces people into hospitals or self-quarntine.

  • The World Health Organization (WHO) has announced that the Covid 19 death rate is 3.4% globally, which is higher than previous estimates of less than 2%. By comparison, the death rate from seasonal flu is typically around 0.1%.

  2. I read yesterday somewhere that 2 out of 3 Americans say they wouldn't accept a free cruise right now. I probably would have answered with the majority had I not already pre-paid mucho dinero for our upcoming cruise in 2 months. Should I stay cloistered in my stateroom and bathing in hand sanitizer? Nah. Roll them dice.

  3. I THINK THIS VIRUS THING IS PART OF COMMUNIST PLOT TO DESTROY THE U.S. ECONOMY AND THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY ALONG WITH IT.

    I BELIEVE IT WAS GENERATED BY SPECIAL ORDER OF GEORGE SOROS IN A CHINESE LABORATORY TO FUCK UP THE WORLD SO SOROS'S DIRTYRAT PARTY CAN SWOOP IN ON THE WRECKAGE LIKE VULTURES AND TAKE OVER.

    THE DIRTYRATS DON'T CARE HOW MANY THEY HAVE TO KILL IN ORDER TO GAN ABSLUTE POWER AND CONTROL.

    THE DEFECRATS EAT THEIR YOUNG YOU KNOW.

    BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD SHIT1

    1. I've heard and read lots of theories about this thing Franco.

      The communist Chinese culling their population along with damaging the world economy seems the most likely, IF the virus was released from the bio-weapons lab in Wuhan on purpose.

      Though, I've read this flu virus has an element of pneumonia and even HIV included and that it kills mostly older people who smoke or have smoked. If you look at this target group, you can make some guesses in the Why category.
      -old people = drain on the economy and society, and in America, generally votes Republican
      -smokers = not well liked these days anywhere.

      If the HIV element is true that could affect everyone so that doesn't make sense to me.

      I surely believe the evil ones in America (defecrats and Rinos) and around the world would condone raping and BBQing and eating young boys and girls if it would put them back in a position of power and to steal massive amounts of money.
