So, evidence doesn't prove anything. How very scientific of you.
Your link said no reference to Trump. So no evidence of anything I could see.
Now in your own words tell me the point that webpage was making to back you up. Please be specific.
Here is your linked webpage again:
Rural Education
Remember....you are trying to confirm that ALL Trump supporters don't understand science.
LOL - yeah, trump supporters are rural America. Maybe you can look that up for yourself - the counties that he won in the last election. Also google the education levels of democrats vs. republicans. Heck, google any/all of these things. The evidence is out there. But you have to have a scientific mind to find it.
Good luck!
I don't see the word ALL in there at all. Maybe I'm not trying hard enough to find it. Let me look again.
Nope - not there. 🤷â€Â♂ï¸Â
See, there you go confusing yourself again, looking for the word ALL in my statement.
ETA - but the whole science thing does seem to confound you a bit, doesn't it?
Will let it go. Not worth spending more time on. You won't even admit when you are generalizing....lol...
I would just caution anyone to be careful about equating level of education with intelligence.
they dont always go hand in hand.
The Trump administration barred a top US disease expert from speaking freely to the public after he warned the coronavirus might be impossible to contain
Dr. Anthony Fauci has advised six presidents on public-health crises. Now he's not allowed to speak publicly without White House approval.
But democrats are politicizing the issue...

No here has done that, but caution away. But education and the trust in science are very closely related, hence the discussion.I would just caution anyone to be careful about equating level of education with intelligence.

Willful ignorance has no cure other than someone losing their willingness to be ignorant.
This thread has gotten way off track and by the usual means.
What in the hell does the price of gas have to do with this virus unless you are planning on torching everything?
NOTHING! That is what!
I am fed up with the trolling. Don't act surprised. Don't act ignorant. Don't double down. Inform yourself then come back with information from somewhere other than your favorite right wing nut site and return with informed dialogue. I swear, you guys are going to downplay this until it's too late. Let's hope it turns out better than projected or we are screwed.

This guy needs to resign in protest and tell Trump to go to hell then start work in the private sector and dare the so-and-so's to shut him up.
Bazza is just obsessed with Mad Max and thinks civilization will end by that means and totally rejects the world of Outbreak and Andromeda Strain. So he brought up gas because that is the currency in Mad Max and Trump resembles Lord Humongous. So he will fight you tooth and nail to prove that reality *** blue***
This is from the New England Journal of Medicine. It is an editorial, so not a peer reviewed research article. A lot of good information, I would definitely recommend reading to add to your info on this bug.

If one assumes that the number of asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic cases is several times as high as the number of reported cases, the case fatality rate may be considerably less than 1%. This suggests that the overall clinical consequences of Covid-19 may ultimately be more akin to those of a severe seasonal influenza (which has a case fatality rate of approximately 0.1%) or a pandemic influenza (similar to those in 1957 and 1968) rather than a disease similar to SARS or MERS, which have had case fatality rates of 9 to 10% and 36%, respectively.2
I posted this excerpt because there is a lot of stuff out there comparing this to the flu or common cold, and a lot of stuff out there thinking it is going to be the Spanish flu of the early 1900's. Who knows?
For me personally, I have talked to a few ED physicians I worked with for many years, and they are definitely more in the "let's wait and see" mode vs. the "uh oh this is bad" mode. TIFWIW.
Heck the way our society is, I ain't worrying until they start canceling March Madness or MLB opening day. ***blue font

Thanks - a number of virologists liken it to an iceberg, with the many unknown/unrepresented cases below the water line. The hope/expectation is that those numbers are significant and greatly lower the death rate.
The simple fact that it is sporadically popping up with no apparent cause in California should warrant some serious concern.
It does for me. I just returned from a business trip there. I think that @NationalTitles17 lives there
