For all the fear about this, and not taking into account the supposed peak that is coming, the global body count is still pretty low. Take comfort in that.
All the predictive models are shit too, because they do not and cannot take into account all the folks who have this and are fine+showing no symptoms.
This really does remind me of 9/11. The panic. All the false info being spread around that changes day to day.
Someone told me the other day that they arrested some Harvard doctor for creating Covid. lol of course they heard that on Facebook. That site is a carcinogen. And now all the Facebook news spreaders have even more free time to spread and disseminate SIFCLF articles nonstop. Yuck
It's interesting how wrong the models have been, even the ones that take social isolation measures into account have been wildly wrong and had to be revised. Of course, there's a part of me that says, "Oh, it's because the measures are working." But I want to believe this is another case of government "scientists" being stupid.
I have had multiple customers tell me that book of revelation is being acted out in real time. One dude was not trolling and told me skynet was being used by the army to scan our retinas and upload it on the same network 5G phones are on. He told me he had a dream the antiChrist was here. He also said our store would be robbed soon.
I have heard every conspiracy theory known to man from different customers.
But all in all, its amazing how orderly everything is. People are panicked, but they are still mostly keeping their shit together and I haven't felt a higher crime presence at my store or at my neighborhood.
It is funny though, because those people who think that we are in a Left Behind book have info that is about as accurate as what the news is putting out. I can't watch it. Thats all they care about is that you pay attention to them. They have so little of value to say, and they just drag out their segments with filler bullshit like: "Corona virus didn't stop this little girl with cancer from having a birthday party. Here is a snapchat clip of cars with balloons on them driving by waving at her from her front lawn wishing her a happy birthday!" Its absurd.
We are basically in a knowledge blackout situation, but all in all, the economic effects of this will probably be far worse than the actual medical ones.
