    COVID-19 is going to hit us hard, extremely hard. Mark these words.

    We have an idiot leader who treats it like it’s joke, and as a result we have a population of other idiots who treat it like a joke.

    We’re fucked.

    No. you will work together as a nation as hard as you can to save many people as possible and get rid of this problem, and then you can worry sick yourself about who was an idiot and why.

    • I'm with team everyone...we are going to get fucked oneway or another with this crisis. Let's just try to stick together.utopian
    • Right now I'm isolate by myself, my shower just broke, no plumber wants to come out. It's the anniversary of my mom's death, etc, etc, etc, etc.utopian
    • Hmm I wonder if the problem is we try as hard as possible to save lives far surpassing diminishing returns and fuckin everyone over

    Just don't listen to the president. The only people who like him are idiots.

    • 55%, that's a lot of them.ApeRobot
    • More like 40% but yes. There are at least that many idiotic, hypocrite bigots.CyBrainX

    I'm curious. What was your intent in starting this thread? How is negativity in a crisis anything but counterproductive?

    I've seen many on here openly express feelings of stress and anxiety. People with loved ones and children. People losing their jobs. This won't help them. Stress upon stress is harmful to people. It manifests itself psychologically and physiologically. It can weaken your immune system and cause you to be overcome by your own fear.

    I mean, I guess you do have the freedom to express yourself and maybe this is your way of dealing with your fear but be mindful of others when doing so.

    I've found staying off of this site with its incessant, obsessive focus on the virus, and controlling my exposure to the extent I can act in my best interest AND maintain a healthy and happy perspective has been very beneficial. I kindly suggest you try it.

    I haven't been tested but I've exhibited some of the symptoms and I've managed them so far through proper rest, nutrition, and video games. And while I'm saddened for those who are going through tougher situations I choose to stay strong and happy to the extent I can, if anything, so that it gives me the best chance to get through this mentally and physically.

    It's a line that's decorated far too many Instagram accounts to not be cringe-inducing, but I still believe it to be a good lesson: Don't worry about the things you can't control.

    • To be fare, there's a lot of pent-up anxiety in general in most people. Having a place to express yourself, vent, laugh and or cry is a positive.utopian
    • I'm also trying to stay away from the news as much a possible. It's extremely difficult though. Take care of yourself Steve!utopian
    • Thanks I appreciate it. Perhaps you're right. I just hope the many, over-burdened by their own circumstances, aren't unnecessarily overwhelmed by others'.SteveJobs
    • I feel completed overwhelmed, trapped, helpless. Just wish that I could be close to my family. I probably will not see them for at least 3-4 months.utopian
    • And they all live only roughly 10 miles from me...so close, yet so far.utopian
    • Use that time what you would waste to read every headline to think about how can you help the people who are on the front-line of this.sted
    • Sorry to hear that utopian :/SteveJobs
    • Utopian just placating you. None of his posts display any of that concern.

    SJ and sted is right. This place is going to be really important to us and we need to keep it usable by being a positive as possible. This doesn't help anyone.

    35,000 reported cases in the USA.

    • If you use that model doing the rounds on medium, a multiple of x10 is closer.monoboy
    • Some also predicted it will infect 80% of any population that's slow to self-isolate.monoboy
    • But I suggest we stop obsessing over the numbers and think more about what we can do to mitigate it all.monoboy
    • My concern with America is that you have a divided nation drunk on conspiracy theories and armed to the teeth.monoboy
    • (*mitigate it personally that is)monoboy
    • Your news networks seriously need to start putting health experts on TV and silencing the political stuff.monoboy
    • Bipartisan, facts only.monoboy
    • Trump is dangerously stupid.monoboy

    We do what we can. I mean what's the point in posting such a low IQ take on QBN if not relieving yourself like a dog on a fire hydrant.

    Look how well it went in the aftermath of Katrina Marley Marl. I think it was on day 5 grown men started raping children in the superdome. After all the abandonment of relatives, looting and murder things went back to normal, like society didn't completely collapse.

    The US is Tippy Top, it'll be fine
