Same here...Natural selection or nature's way of keeping

order and balance. Hate to say it, but thinning the world population Herd us not necessarily a bad thing as planet earth tries to keep an ever increasing population sustained.

Lets compare this to the 2009 H1N1 pandemic in the US -- EDGEMAN 03/12/2020 1:22PM

If 60.8 million get the coronavirus how many deaths would there be. ** -- capitals1 03/12/2020 1:58PM

Just a couple million. No biggie. ** -- Stork 03/12/2020 2:09PM

And just the ones who are older or have underlying conditions. ** -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 2:48PM

And, boom...Social Security is solvent again. Brilliant! ** -- Coach McGuirk 03/12/2020 2:52PM

Part of me has wondered if this is nature's way of thinning the population -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 3:06PM

Or the Chinese military's approach... ** -- EDGEMAN 03/12/2020 3:08PM

Much lower mortality rate than this one. ** -- Jackie VT 03/12/2020 1:42PM

Pretty sure some schools did close. ** -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 1:39PM

How quickly we forget? Hate to be tinfoil hat type, but wonder if the gov -- hokieman842 03/12/2020 1:33PM

I GUARANTEE you that it's NOT a chemical weapon. Now biological weapon? -- Late 80s Hokie 03/12/2020 3:58PM

Maybe...but there is a reasonable natural explanation as well ** -- jmanatVT 03/12/2020 2:40PM

Then don't be ** -- Beerman 03/12/2020 1:58PM

Saw too much in the service not to be ** -- hokieman842 03/12/2020 1:59PM

Perhaps, but that way madness lies ** -- Beerman 03/12/2020 2:06PM

I think so but it will prob never get out ** -- kingofcassell 03/12/2020 1:43PM

It's too bad that this is nothing like H1N1 ** -- VTSnake 03/12/2020 1:33PM

H1N1 killed many more people** -- EDGEMAN 03/12/2020 1:39PM

You're comparing one outbreak that's finished to another that's really -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 1:40PM

H1N1 was a version of the Spanish Flu, and that killed 50 million -- EDGEMAN 03/12/2020 1:45PM

Cool story. Doesn't really have anything to do with my post but whatever.** -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 1:46PM

H1N1 was a version of the worst pandemic this world has ever seen, yet... -- EDGEMAN 03/12/2020 3:14PM

You were comparing H1N1 to COVID-19 and my point was one has run its course -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 3:19PM

But even the normal flu is far worse and that's every year -- statmanfromHCyrs 03/12/2020 1:44PM

What makes you say the "normal flu is far worse"? Everything I've read -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 1:46PM

I mean the world doesn't shut down for normal flu outbreaks -- statmanfromHCyrs 03/12/2020 1:50PM

2-4% is way deadlier than the normal flu and that kills ~50,000 a year here ** -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 1:53PM

Did you read the article? -- statmanfromHCyrs 03/12/2020 2:02PM

So in one post you're saying it's far less contagious than the flu and the -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 2:40PM

I never said flu was more contagious...I said there are far more incidences -- statmanfromHCyrs 03/12/2020 2:45PM

But how can you say there are "far more incidences" and then turn around -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 2:46PM

We don't know *COVID* incidences, obviously -- statmanfromHCyrs 03/12/2020 2:49PM

Yes and even if that number is 1% that's still higher than the flu so even -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 2:55PM

Even 'regular' flu is far worse with same results ** -- statmanfromHCyrs 03/12/2020 1:30PM

Please stop saying this... it's simply not true. ** -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 2:41PM

Jesus, I meant incidences....said it in another post** -- statmanfromHCyrs 03/12/2020 2:46PM

Then say that (even though that's not necessarily true either). Just -- AbsolutVT03 03/12/2020 2:47PM

We understand the flu. We do not understand this virus strain yet ** -- hoosnowahokie 03/12/2020 1:49PM

How many NCAA or pro events were canceled due to the flu? -- EDGEMAN 03/12/2020 1:31PM
