The only link between MILLIONS OF PEOPLE STARVING THROUGHOUT THE WORLD because you're afraid of getting a cough and people who will start committing suicide (mostly males) in the United States because you're afraid of getting a cough is that they are both things that will happen because you're afraid of getting a cough.
You've already made it quite clear that you both don't give a single shit about one of them. I thought that since the other one is likely to kill many magnitudes of people more of both sexes as well as children that you might take the other one more seriously.
But that's cool. Make jokes. At least you don't have a cold and you're stocked on food and toilet paper. You'll both be fine.
EDIT: Oh, and here's the original article with a link. I feel that I have to post it again since we're on a new page and you both seem to have amnesia now from the stay at home orders.

UN Leader Says the World Could Face 'Famines of Biblical Proportions' amid Coronavirus Crisis
“While dealing with a COVID-19 pandemic, we are also on the brink of a hunger pandemic,” David Beasley, the director of the UN World Food Program warned
As the world continues to battle the coronavirus pandemic, the United Nations is warning that without action, the world is at risk of numerous famines “of biblical proportions” in the near future.
He explained that famines could be seen “in about three dozen countries,” ten of which already have more than 1 million people on the verge of starvation.
“There is also a real danger that more people could potentially die from the economic impact of COVID-19 than from the virus itself,” he warned.

Strangely enough, I never issued any stay-at-home orders.

So, on to real facts.
The virus might be damaging the heart even in patients who do not suffer from heart disease.
Quote:

The virus attaches to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which is found in the cells of the lungs. This allows the virus to invade and cause respiratory illness.
But, ACE2 is also found in heart muscles and the cells that line blood vessels. In addition, ACE2 is part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, which regulates cardiovascular function, kidney function, and blood pressure.
Given the association with ACE2, researchers are suggesting that COVID-19 can damage the heart directly. In a study conducted in Wuhan Province, China, nearly 20% of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 showed signs of heart damage. Half of the patients with heart damage died, compared with 4.5% of COVID-19 patients without heart damage.
ACE inhibitors and angiotensin II receptor blockers are commonly prescribed for patients with underlying cardiovascular symptoms. However, some animal models show that the use of these drugs may increase the risk of severe disease in patients with COVID-19.
One thing to look out for when unscrambling the statistic later is elevated heart attack deaths and heart failure deaths. Some articles I've read indicate a 5X sudden death rate from those causes in otherwise young, healthy people while at home.

Huh, neither did I.
The reason why India is fucked with Covid is because it was fucked without Covid. Unlike China, India was never able to get it's shit together and create enough surplus to get thru hard times.
I feel sorry for the people of India because their government is not only corrupt it's incompetent, but just like I don't feel the need to swoop in and "fix" another nation with missiles and guns, I don't feel the need to swoop in and "fix" India's internal policies.
If we have a grain surplus we can help then with food

I'm sure that regular ole' Germans who weren't a part of the Nazi party said some similar stuff. Particularly the old who had loud vocal support for everything that was being done but were too old to don an SS jacket.

WTF kind of obtuse replies are these?
Who said anything about India? The article certainly didn't. The only time India was mentioned was when Karen thought she was being witty using India and Indiana in a sentence. That joke wasn't funny or witty because A) The article didn't mention India once, and B) none of my family lives in Indiana.
But you said this yesterday, Sigs...

I thought maybe if you saw that the death-toll from the Western World's lockdowns was going to be far greater than 2000 per day it might wake you up. Sorry to interrupt your quarantine nap.

Hey, you're the one that wants to kill off the old and the 'weak' without so much as a shrug. So long dad! Adios bro! Too bad for you if you've got a target on your back!

Seriously. Fuck you, Karen.
Glad you're not going to get a cold.
I'm glad that your cunty disposition toward me is such that you can now completely tune out any and all outside death tolls caused by the world shutting down so your weak old ass doesn't get the sniffles.

Yeah, like India's Modi listens to me.
My conscience is clean. All I'm calling for are masks and hand sanitizers. Well, and testing, contact tracing, and quarantine of those who are provably infected. I'm even OK with states throwing the doors wide open, if it passes by referendum, and as long as those states don't then go to the daddy Trump for help if things go $outh.
You're all about writing your family off, along with everyone else, without the least bit of quibble if they happen to be old or 'weak'.

Here's one good thing about the pandemic. Fewer car fatalities.
2018 US fatalities: 36,560 or 11.18/1M
Historically they've been about on par with a year of 'the' flu, but after stay-at-home they dropped by half at least here in California.

Quote:Jeezus, SIX, you have seriously gone off the rails. Do you honestly think that Modi, or Joko Widodo, or Muhyiddin Yassin, or Arif Alvi, or Ould Gazouani or any of the other leaders of nations potentially facing starvation ordered a lockown because of *karens* in the USA???

Hey, let us know when you've come back to earth, m'kay?
