That is not actually what koods said. But sure, the wording of the speech, if considered on its own, is not a compelling argument for Trump being evil.

Dont listen to BMI. I am apperently just under the "overweight" category myself despite being in shape.
Its not very accurate. You need to add more than just height and weight into the equation. waist circumference at the very least.

Waist circumference even by itself is a much better metric than BMI.

Yeah I consider it pretty bullshit, the formula was devised in the 1800s. Don't know my waist size offhand but it has definitely gone down from when I weighed 15 lbs more.

5000 new cases and 68 deaths today so far in the US. That’s a surge

This poor guy not that far from me died and lost his mother and sister as well to it(that family in NJ - though this guy was in PA). It's already surging here.
I'm in self quarantine due to a cough and some growing aches and pains at the moment. I have to see if I can get a thermometer off amazon or something because I cannot find the one I had for the life of me. I'm looking into getting tested before next week. Anyone know what the turnaround on a test is? I've heard it's a few days wait for results.

I think a lot of the severity in certain areas has to do with genetics. Major histocompatibility complex is an interesting and not fully understood system. Some people's MHC genes are better able to recognize and crack the code of this virus, and some aren't... which would help explain why certain populations are seeing much higher death rates than others.

So, there are all these shortages now, but since people are stocked up with stuff and also running out of money, shouldn't we get to a point where everything becomes replenished very soon for basic necessities? Everyone is stocking up, but it shouldn't change the amount of stuff they are actually consuming daily.

It's probably already been mentioned, but what do you make of certain blood types being more susceptible? Studies out of China were showing A types having the most susceptibility and O with the least.

We could have prevented this shutdown of the economy if we had more tests available so we could identify and isolate the sick. thats what south korea did. without a vaccine, widespread testing and strict adherence by the sick to quarantine instructions is the only alternative to shutting everyone down. and without testing we are left with only one option.
South Korea and China are both seeing a decline in COVID cases. Korea was able to pull this off without taking such drastic measures thanks to their widespread testing. If there is a model to follow its the Korean model.
Telling people not to wear masks was really stupid too. The way masks are shunned during a pandemic in the west is perplexing.

The public was being told masks arent effective for them. which is untrue and the wrong approach.
Saying you shouldnt use them because there is a shortage is one thing. but also there shouldnt be a shortage. We should treat pandemics like Korea is what I'm saying.
They are able to remain functional during all of this.
