No, not doomsaying at all so long as you say ''if'' or ''could'' before you conclude that 700 million people are going to die.
Either you are a dishonest piece of shit or your reading comprehension is that of a fourth grader.
Either way, you are no longer worth discussing anything with because you either can't understand English or are just as dishonest as capps. Not worth wasting my time on that. Good luck.

Good luck. Keep spamming the forum and insulting people with dishonest posts, then. I am done with you. If you refuse to be honest, then there is no point of anybody engaging with you. Liars and dishonest people are not worth one's time of day.

I just want people who are bad at math to shut the fuck up. It's about probability. We know what to expect from the regular flu. That is why we don't worry about it. There is a lot of uncertainty about batsoup19. We don't know yet. It could be really bad.
It's like people saying that more people die from slipping in the bathtub than from terrorism. So we shouldn't worry about terrorists. The probability of bathtub deaths suddenly doubling in a year is about 1/(the number of years since big bang). The probability of terrorists attacks doubling is much higher. That's why we worry about it.
Shut up and study math.

Or comparing fixed risks like drownings to a risk with an exponential growth function (sars-2). A lot of what we are seeing simply stems from ignorance in general. Ignorance of math (people refusing to believe what the numbers tell us is possible). Ignorance of risk management (erroneously refusing to prepare for a risk because one believes their low-confidence at best probability that the risk will occur). etc.

StA buying into retarded Democrat talking points about botching the response to something that hasn't even happened yet just goes to show you, he too has Trump Derangement Syndrome, and in this instance, he's even more deranged about Trump than Monte.

If you don't like being called out for your doom-mongering and
if you don't want to communicate with members whose opinions you don't like then that's entirely up to you but
if you think epic flouncing is going to stop people expressing those opinions you
could be very disappointed.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Anyway, back to the intellectual discussion, ignoring the yapping..
Drawing up the latest pandemic data on a logarithmic chart still shows a solid diagonal line. It almost looked like the Chinese data was going to cross the diagonal when the epidemic went pandemic.

Probably the most sane advice in this thread.
