I don't know even a single LRC poster who has died from covid-19

The most obese states are staunchly Republican.

No one is immune to COViD unless they already have it. Runners are in good health and very unlikely to have severe complications from

COVID, is that really a surprise?

I doubt you’ll meet anyone who has died of corona virus or anything because they are already dead. If you meet them it means you are already dead, you are a psychic or plain old insane.

Yes, I know a 41 year old runner in NYC who was hospitalized. Is fine now.

Consider your doctor friend lucky. My sister is an ER dr and she is called into work frequently to deal with the influx of positive patients.

Hi, I'm wtfbbq. Nice to meet you.

Now you know one person who has had COVID-19.

It is not luck. 99% of hospitals are losing money due to the silly scare tactics. All of the predictions 2 months ago were that hospitals woukd he overwhelmed. Instead, they are cutting staff.

Please cite a source for "99% of hospitals are losing money" because they are empty.

That's a very bold statement you are making with no proof.

Hospitals ARE currently losing profits because they have stopped treating non-emergency patients and procedures i.e. knee replacements, colonoscopies, etc which they profit from.

I've seen no reports of hospitals losing money because they are empty but would love it if you could share some.

The main definition of empty is "Not filled".

You first agree then want me to prove it? Read the articles. Turn on the news. Next you will want me to prove that Covid 19 is in the US because you don't believe the news.

I’ve cracked the case, people. Since the owners and all the posters think the pandemic is a hoax & spend all their time mocking the victims, it would be too humiliating if they actually admitted catching the virus, so they just stay silent.

third world countries/people working on cruise ships, airlines, middle east, etc....that earned income supports whole families, that income is currently gone! These countries have no unemployment, retirement, healthcare, pensions, they only have their jobs and each other, that income is gone now......STARVATION IS IMMINENT....Pick your poison.

The expanded community (people posting + runners they know) here must be 10,000+ at least.

Interesting. How frequently does he run? What is his weight/height? Miles per week. 5k PB...

Just trying to figure out if he’s somebody who runs or if he is a runner.

Nowhere in this article does it say 99% of hospitals are laying off workers. You exaggerated the truth.

It merely states the obvious: COVID 19 is not affecting suburban or rural areas as hard as urban.

It's not about you!! Its about your parents and grandparents. They will die. Most statical analysis shows that millions may die without proper mitigation

Fact: everyone's parents will die.

This is true. I work at a hospital in California and we were all prepped for a massive surge and it never happened. Our cases went up a little over the past couple weeks, but nothing crazy and sending quite a few people home.

I'm sure that the hundred ten thousand people who died in Spain, Italy, France, and the UK were all fat.

Honestly, I’m not sure. I know he ran the NYC marathon but don’t even actually know his time. I know him socially, but have never discussed running with him. I imagine it couldn’t have been faster than 3:30, but I could be wrong.

Isn’t that just common sense? Your parents and grandparents most likely will die before you. Unless you die in some horrible accident like a car crash or a plane gone missing. Whatever happen to that flight MH370 anyways?

Unconfirmed. Definitely the flu.
